One of Fiji's premier resorts and renowned for its unparalleled luxury and authentic culture is Nanuku Resort Fijia 500-acre private tropical beachfront oasis. Upon arrival, you'll be greeted by a traditional warrior before being whisked away by golf cart to your (and breathtakingly beautiful) room.

Take a dip in your private pool, then enjoy a delicious Pacific-inspired meal or take part in a range of exciting activities. From river kayaking and an exquisite warrior cooking class to a dreamy sunset cruise, a Indiana JonesFrom a “tropical-style” waterfall hike to an incredibly effective massage and so much more. Nanuku pays great attention to detail and it shows, from the impeccable hospitality to the display of local artwork. And it shows. They’re even dedicated to sustainability with a resident marine scientist overseeing their mangrove nursery, coral planting program and other regeneration projects.

You will find Matamanoa Island Resort Situated in the middle of Fiji's Mamanuca Islands, approximately 30 kilometres west of Nadi International Airport, Matamanoa Island Resort is an ideal holiday retreat, perched on a palm-covered volcanic cone and surrounded by magnificent coral reefs.

Lounge by the infinity pool, play tennis, unwind in the treetop spa, learn palm weaving and go kayaking or scuba diving, or simply enjoy a beachside Frangipani Flower cocktail made with white rum, vodka, banana liqueur, apricot liqueur and orange/mango juice. And while we have plenty of accommodation options nearby, the Matamanoa Island Resort, which opened in April 2022, also offers more affordable options.

Located in the middle of a coconut grove, on the edge of the lagoon of the Yasawa Islands, Coconut Beach Resort Fiji is as lovely as it sounds, and with just 11 guest beds, you're guaranteed a peaceful stay. If you can tear yourself away from your sweetheart's eyes (or other body parts) long enough to explore the island, you'll find that you can do pretty much anything under the sun.

From snorkeling, kayaking and volleyball to coconut shelling, guided hikes, sulu striking demonstrations and kava ceremonies; angling, scuba diving, visiting the famous Sawa-I-Lau Caves, and much more.

This listing is full of exclusivity and privacy for your vacation and Royal Davui Island Fiji is no exception. This small (but luxurious) island sits in Fiji’s Beqa Lagoon, just south of the mainland, and offers just 16 villas and bungalows, each with unique water views, plunge pools, outdoor terraces and a real sense of privacy.

If there’s one activity that stands out at this resort, it’s the beach picnics on Sand Cay, a tidal island where you can boat to in seven minutes for a romantic, secluded picnic in complete privacy. Note that a minimum stay of five nights is required to stay at the resort, so prepare yourself for a week of pure bliss.

There are apparently 15 different words for heaven in the Fijian language with Yasawa being the first and we are delighted to confirm that Yasawa Island Resort & Spa lives up to its name. With just 18 luxury bungalows nestled amidst the island’s breathtaking beauty, it’s also one of the most private getaways, making it one of the best resorts in Fiji for honeymooners.

Start your stay by participating in a traditional kava welcome ceremony, which involves collectively preparing the country’s national drink by crushing the yaqona root. Then enjoy the beachfront spa, explore one of the 11 private beaches, swim in the caves of the Blue Lagoon, sit down for a private picnic, or visit the nearby village of Bukama and immerse yourself in the local culture. It’s truly a gift from heaven.

Voted #1 hotel in the South Pacific by Trip Advisor in 2021, Tokoriki Island Resort is the stuff dreams are made of. You can reach this award-winning luxury resort by speedboat or catamaran, but the ultimate honeymoon deserves a helicopter or seaplane splurge.

Your home away from home will take the form of a beachfront bure or villa. We recommend choosing one with a private pool. This is one of the best resorts in Fiji for a honeymoon. You’ll spend your days relaxing with a couples’ pampering package or daily massage, indulging in a private picnic on the beach, dining teppanyaki or privately and a la carte with ocean views, or venturing out at your leisure with paddleboarding, kayaking, and scuba diving. Best of all, this is an adults-only resort, so you can rest assured there won’t be any screaming kids to disrupt your zen.

Another great Denarau resort is the Sofitel Fiji Resort & Spa. Fiji meets France at this mega resort that offers 298 luxury oceanfront rooms and suites set in 26 hectares of lush gardens.

Waitui is an adults-only paradise with private cabanas, poolside refreshments, nightly entertainment and an exclusive bar and grill.

Then there’s the Bazaar Kitchen and Bar, aka the buffet to crown all buffets. With six live interactive cooking stations serving Fijian, Indian, Chinese, Japanese, Italian and American cuisine, plus desserts fit for the gods, hunger doesn’t stand a chance. Fuel up and then dance the night away at the brand new Republik nightclub on-site.
