Australia’s renowned family travel magazine, Out & About with Kids, (OAWK) announced the results of its 14th annual Readers Choice Awards 2024 on 1st December. The Awards received nominations from over 45,000 well-travelled families around Australia for the best local and international family resorts, holiday parks, family attractions, ski resorts, overall destinations, cruises and road trips and of course, kids clubs. Malolo is thrilled to be the shining star of Fiji in this category for the 3rd time and 2nd consecutive year.
Group General Manager Brad Calder said, “We are delighted and honoured to win this award again, and to be recognised by the OAWK readers and our guests. Our kids club team goes above and beyond to ensure our youngest guests are given experiences and a holiday to remember. 2025 will also see exciting new things for our Kids Club – so watch this space.”
Ahura Resorts Managing Director Tony Whitton said, “As a 25year old, 100% Fijian owned resort, the Malolo team takes particular pride in ensuring all guests and families experience the magic of Malolo and the “real” Fiji in their own unique and special way – and none more so, than in our Kids Club.“
In keeping with offering a quintessential, barefoot Fijian island holiday experience, Malolo’s Tia’s Treehouse Kids Club has created a program which immerses kids – in a fun, innovative and educational way, into Fijian island life, including a focus on the environment, culture and the history of Malolo and Fiji in general.
There’s a different theme each day ie Marine and Natural Environments, Fijian Culture, Coconut Trees, Tradition, Fijian Food and Arts and Crafts. Some of the activities include: focus on herbal medicine and endangered species, fish feeding, Iguana and other fauna talks, traditional costume making and face painting, Fijian language lessons, Fijian childhood games and much more.
Malolo Island Resort is located in Fiji’s Mamanuca archipelago just 25km/16m west of Nadi International Airport and is accessible by three-times daily fast catamaran or chartered water taxis running 24/7. This 100% Fijian family-owned resort has been a long-time favourite for families and couples alike, and over the years has welcomed back tens of thousands of return visitors.
There has been a significant investment of over FJD$4.6M in Malolo over the past 12 months namely: FJD$1.5M technology upgrade including WiFi in all rooms and introduction of our own Resort App; grounds and gardens upgrades and rejuvenation; upgrade of furniture in some public areas and restaurants; new beds, curtains and espresso machines in all rooms, the revitatlisation of the adults pool area and, still to come, the completion of our own water production and bottling plant which will provide complimentary still and sparkling water to all rooms in our own branded recycled glass bottles.
