Royal Davui Island Resort, Fiji

Secluded on a remote lush island, atop a living barrier reef and fringed by white sand beaches and sapphire waters, Royal Davui is the perfect island to escape to. Located just a 20-minute flight South of the main island of Viti Levu, the island features just 16 secluded Vales (Fijian for “home”) nestled within 10 acres of lush vegetation with breathtaking views out over the lagoon and beyond. With a maximum of 32 guests on the island at one time, privacy, peace and first class service is guaranteed.

All the Vales offer a comfortable yet contemporary open plan design with their own plunge pools, decks for private dining and an award winning bathroom with Jacuzzi spa and ceiling that opens up to reveal the sunny or star filled sky above.

Overlooking the Beqa Lagoon is the Banyan Restaurant - the perfect setting for an a la carte breakfast, lunch or dinner, all of which are included in the price. The menu is Pacific rim inspired and changes daily to take advantage of the fresh local fruit, vegetables and seafood that simply does not get any better. There is also an extensive wine cellar offering the best of Australian and New Zealand wines and French champagnes.

The sparkling lagoon is ideal for water sports and sea kayaks, catamarans and snorkelling equipment are available. Beqa Lagoon is also on the edge of some superb scuba diving areas and sport fishing is also extremely popular with private charters available from the island.

On land, the island offers some interesting walking trails and cultural visits to local villages. Within the resort there is also croquet, board games, book and DVD libraries as well as fabulous soothing spa treatments.
