Likuri Island Resort Fiji Rolls Out Shiji's Full Cloud Stack

Likuri Island Resort Fiji went live on October 19, 2026, with a fully integrated Shiji cloud stack spanning property management, point-of-sale and payments, according to a vendor announcement issued from Sydney.

The Pacific deployment replaces legacy front-office and food-and-beverage (F&B) systems with three Shiji platforms and two third-party connectors on a single data layer.

What's in the suite?

• Daylight PMS — a cloud-native (server-based software accessed via the internet) property management system marketed as mobile-first, handling check-in, check-out, guest profiles and room operations.
• Infrasys POS — a point-of-sale system deployed across the resort's dining outlets, including the Likuri Bar, for order management and faster service at peak periods.
• Astral Payments — an integrated payments processor that links both PMS and POS, automating reconciliation and room-charge posting to the guest folio (the running bill attached to a stay).
• Global Blue integration — supports tax-free shopping for international guests across accommodation and dining outlets.
• SiteMinder interface — synchronizes rates and inventory across distribution channels in real time.

For a single-island operator, consolidating three core systems and two connectors in one deployment also consolidates the vendor-management burden, the integration audit trail and the support queue into a single contract.

The operator owns the bill. Shiji licenses the platform per property under standard commercial terms; the announcement did not disclose contract value. Likuri Group's head office in Fiji procured and will run the package across the resort's 2026 season. The property is company-operated, not franchised.

Why move now?

Hotel technology rollouts rarely move the operator's P&L (profit and loss statement), but PMS-POS-payments unification does, because the duplicate data entry it eliminates sits inside the labor line item, not the marketing budget.

Shiji General Manager for Australia and New Zealand Anthony Stevens framed the deal as an architecture decision rather than a feature purchase.

"We are delighted to partner with Likuri Island Resort Fiji as they embrace a fully integrated cloud technology ecosystem," Stevens said. "By bringing together property management, point-of-sale, payments, and distribution on a single platform, the resort has established a connected technology foundation that improves operational agility while enabling consistently exceptional guest experiences."

What changes operationally?

Early results cited in the release include faster reception processing, shorter service turnarounds across F&B outlets and more accurate revenue capture through automated room-charge workflows.

The vendor describes a centralized data environment that gives management the kind of cross-departmental reporting that mixed-vintage stacks rarely produce without manual exports and nightly batch jobs.

Likuri Group General Manager Navinesh Singh tied the upgrade to the operator's service promise rather than to a software spec sheet.

"Our goal has always been to deliver an authentic island experience while maintaining strong operational standards behind the scenes," Singh said. "With Shiji's integrated technology platform, we have further strengthened the way we operate, giving our teams greater efficiency, visibility and control across the resort. From supporting faster service in our outlets to creating a more seamless experience across guest check-ins and billing, the technology is helping our team work smarter and stay focused on what matters most delivering memorable experiences for our guests."

What does the rollout signal for the region?

Shiji counts more than 91,000 hotels on its global platform, the company said, including some of the largest chains.

The Likuri deployment sits inside the vendor's Pacific expansion playbook, which targets independent resorts and small groups running mixed-age technology stacks that no longer speak to each other at audit time.

The forward question is execution. If Likuri's POS-driven throughput translates into a lower food-cost percentage (food spending as a share of total sales), a metric operators track closely in island destinations where imports dominate procurement, expect competing Fiji properties to revisit their own roadmaps within the next two quarters.
