Fiji Islands Accommodation Guide

Bula! (Greetings)

Fiji accommodation is spread throughout the islands, from small island resorts to large beach hotels. The most popular style of accommdation is the beach bure - thatch bungalows with open plan design and high ceilings. There are few self-catering bungalows as most locations are quite remote from towns, restaurants and shops - most fiji hotels have their own restaurants and some offer very reasonable meal plans. Prices in Fiji are reasonable and standards very high. There are over 100 accredited places to stay so the decision of selecting a hotel depends on what you want to do and where you want to visit. The following overview of the islands should help you make that decision.

The main island of Fiji is Viti Levu and supports over 60% of the population. On the west coast is Nadi Town, location of the international airport and an excellent place to base a holiday, especially those on more of a budget. Nadi has loads of day tour options for visiting the enchanting offshore islands, and for exploring the scenic coral coast and the remote interior. On the mountainous eastern coast sits the cosmopolitan capital Suva which is a good base for those wanting to explore the tropical rainforest, rivers and traditional villages of the Highlands. The Coral Coast, along the south of Viti Levu, is Fiji's premier large hotel destination with nice beach locations. The Sunshine Coast, along the north of Viti Levu, is dominated by sugar cane farming.

The most popular holiday destination in Fiji is the Mamanuca Islands where small holiday beach resorts sit on tiny coral islands or in secluded bays alongside turquoise lagoons. The area has excellent snorkelling and lots of water activities. Further north are the stunning beaches and turuoise lagoons of the Yasawa Islands where several small luxury resorts and lots of traditional beach resorts can be found, popular with the backpacker market and discerning travellers.

The Northern Islands is renowned for its world class scuba diving locations and eco-tourism. Taveuni in particular has lush rainforest with good hiking trails in National Parks, some stunning waterfalls and are popular with discerning travellers.

The Southern Islands also has great scuba diving, challenging surfing and exceptional deep sea fishing.
