TANOA Plaza Hotel recently celebrated the dedication and hard work of its staff over the past year with a special event honoring their contributions to the hospitality industry. General Manager Mere Rakoroi emphasized the importance of the team during her speech, stating that the evening was dedicated to those who are the backbone of the hotel’s success.
“After a year of long hours, missed holidays, and unwavering dedication, it was time to celebrate the people who give Tanoa its heart,” Rakoroi remarked. She recognized the resilience, professionalism, and commitment of the team amidst various challenges, highlighting the event as an opportunity to express gratitude and appreciation for their efforts.
The hotel noted that this celebration is part of a larger tradition observed by all Tanoa Hotels across Fiji and the Pacific, marking the end of 2025 with an atmosphere filled with gratitude and joy. Staff enjoyed a night filled with entertainment, delectable food, beverages, and thoughtful gift exchanges, creating an environment of camaraderie where colleagues gathered not just as coworkers but as family.
From the front desk to the kitchen, every team member was acknowledged for their role in delivering excellent service throughout the year. The celebration went beyond mere festivities; it served as a tribute to the dedication of the hospitality industry and the teamwork that makes success possible.
In addition to the staff recognition celebration, the hotel also organized its annual Tanoa Kaachi Day, an event dedicated to celebrating the children of hotel staff through engaging activities and bonding experiences. Rakoroi explained that this initiative aimed to help families understand the sacrifices made by hotel employees, especially during long hours and missed holidays.
“It was a proud moment for our staff to share their world with their children, especially the long hours, missing festive seasons, and time away from loved ones,” she added. This commitment to both staff and their families illustrates TANOA Plaza Hotel’s dedication not only to hospitality but also to fostering a supportive and appreciative workplace culture.
