The Fiji Hotel and Tourism Association (FHTA) plays a crucial role in advocating for its members and promoting tourism in Fiji. While tourism has experienced a positive boost with strong bookings and increased visitor arrivals, there have been concerning complaints about the quality and standards of some hotels and activities.

The article emphasizes the importance of maintaining a positive reputation to attract visitors, highlighting the need for accountability, better enforcement, and increased government support in the tourism sector.
