Day 1
Matangi - Love in Paradise
Fiji tours are known for romance and endless variety. Enjoy pristine coral reefs brimming with unparalleled color, tropical forests draping islands in emerald greenery, fresh cuisine, intimate landscape, and luxurious views out to the water. Your private transfer meets you at the airport on Taveuni Island and escorts you to the boat landing. The water is cool and refreshing. A soft breeze sweeps across the ocean. The scent of fresh sea encompasses the air. When the boat sets off, the wind brushes against your cheeks, and the main island of Viti Levu fades away. The horseshoe island of Matangi comes into view. The immaculate rainforest is untouched. The beaches practically glow with powdery white sand. The sweet scent of hibiscus overtakes the seaside aroma. Palm trees bend over the beach providing luxurious shade.
The main dining area has a conical roof Fijian style with open walls that look out to the indigo water. Your intimate room has traditional bure elegance, with a thatched roof atop a room filled with modern luxury. Across the bay, you can see the rolling hills draped in tropical lushness as you settle into your beachside paradise letting the romance wash over you.
