You'll be fine in Fiji. I would just go with the A/C room so you have a spot to relax in and cool off so you can get out and go again. It will be humid but manageable if you keep hydrated and spend some of the day in cool activities like diving and swimming. Then the evenings will be beautiful. Suitably equip yourself for the tropics and sun and you're good. That's what I do.
My comment about the eggs is in reference to how many days you spend in Fiji. If you're spending over 5 days, then I would consider multiple places. I find it rains in Fiji. So I try to spread time a little wider to ensure enjoying that paradise in its best sunny state.
As Taveuni takes a day to travel in and out, 4-5 days would be the minimum I'd suggest as well.
Being pilots you will love the experience of flying in through Savusavu. The plane was one of the Otter type they have there. We weren't treetop level but much lower than the direct flight we took back. We flew up along the coast of Vanua Levu, and you could see right down into the water as the edge of the land and reefs blends into the ocean. I'm sure I saw a shark. Multiple "what a life" spots. There's always clouds that will give a wonderful texture. Then you circle over a harbor before sweeping down to bank up on one wing through the hills to land at Savusavu. You pull up and there's one building. The pilot leaves the engines running, you swap people on and off and take off again for Taveuni. The direct flight back was higher where you could see a lot of large reef areas, but was much higher and lost that detail. Worth additional cost? Depends on how exciting my description was to you, I guess.
