I normally recommend trying to see all of a country, not just the resorts, but including places where the local people live and shop.

I don't recommend that for Fiji, at least not for the capital Nadi.

Arrange a taxi from the airport to the wherever you're going to first, and then get the earliest possible ferry to your resort. The capital was pretty unpleasant, and although the native Fijians were very friendly to Westerners, the open racism they showed against the Indo-Fijians was also not pleasant.

Although other parts of the mainland may be nicer, just getting to one of the island resorts as quickly as possible, is probably the best bet as the resorts are very nice.

Sorry, can't actually recommend which resort would be good for you but you should definitely research them carefully, as some are really designed only for either newly-weds or people who wish to drink vast quantities of booze (which is the one I went to). Getting one that's setup for family based activities would obviously be a lot better for you.
