Another marketing piece that doesn't match reality. Uprising resort makes it look as though you'll be able to partake of all sorts of beach related activities, water sports, and that they are all right there to be had. Not even close. They are trying to promote their interior and the two activities they have close by are ziplining and river... more

I managed to make it thanks to some very helpfull locals to the Uprising Beach Resort. I've noticed that Fijian ppl are friendly where... more

First thing I noticed in my room was 2 cockroachs on my pillows, then more in the other parts of the room. Next the staff, they are clueless. They didn't know if they could serve us or not at 4:30 or 5pm. We borrowed a pen from the bartender and he made scene about asking for it back after like... more

I have to admit that we did have considerable trouble in booking to stay at Uprising. Many emails went unanswered and when I rang they did not understand me. Having said that we persevered and spent three days in the big family bure at Uprising this July. We had stayed at Tsulu two years earlier which also has backpacker as... more

Our family of 4 stayed here in August 2009. It was the first of 3 places we stayed in Fiji. We were impressed from the get-go and even though we thoroughly enjoyed our subsequent resorts/rentals on Taveuni, our appreciation of Uprising did not fade. I loved that a backpacker (well, "flashpacker") destination could also serve a family so well. We... more

We spent a week at Uprising Resort and could not say enough good things about it. The bure's were cozy and clean and we loved hanging out on our porch with the ocean SO close. It felt very private and intimate. The staff was wonderful and greeted us with a smile and a "bula" everywhere we went. We felt they... more

Uprising Resort, Fiji We arrived at Uprising after a week at the very basic but very beautiful and immensely friendly and fun Robinson Crusoe Island resort. Chalk and Cheese, Uprising is everything Robinson Crusoe Isn’t, big very comfortable Bures that are more like a very large studio flat than a hotel room. Big comfortable bed, lots of seating, a kitchenette... more

What a great place. Great beachfront and ocean view rooms for a budget price. A lot of space for the family or a group of friends. Outdoor showers! Food is alright. Staff friendly and great adventures nearby including...zipline flying fox and white water rafting, which were very exciting and so much fun. more

For people who stay in the dorms at Uprising, you are getting a great bargain- a beautifully landscaped, well-thought-out resort with a lovely pool and nice bar for only $35 fiji dollars per night (including continental breakfast)! The bures are very large with their own porch, indoor seating area and an open-air shower. Uprising is right on the beach, and... more
