The Ministry of Tourism is now looking into claims by an Australian couple that they ate rotten food while staying at a hotel in the Coral Coast.
A spokesperson says the Office of the Director of Tourism is looking into the issue and will respond accordingly.
A woman who was on holiday with her partner in Fiji told news.com.au that she ate a steak sandwich for lunch on their third day in the country and after that went through six hours of intense vomiting and fever.
Her partner also went through the same, saying he vomited partially‑digested sushi.
The couple claims it was food poisoning as they ended up on drips at the Sigatoka hospital.
