10 Best Fiji Honeymoon Resorts & Planning Guide

For very good reasons, Fiji is widely recognized as a top honeymoon destination in the world. There are many villas, hotels, and resorts to choose from that offer seclusion and privacy. Modern luxury is combined with breathtaking landscapes, beaches, and even jungles.

There are adventures galore involving a wide range of exciting activities. It’s impossible to imagine a more fitting place for romance and for newlyweds. Learn about some of the best Fiji Islands for honeymooners and some of the top hotels, villas, and resorts below. In addition, there are activities and experiences to look forward to on the remarkable Fiji islands.

Best Time to Visit Fiji for a Honeymoon

The best time to plan a Fiji honeymoon is during the dry season – May to October. The weather is often dry and sunny with lower humidity, so you’ll have plenty of time to get outside and enjoy the landscape of Fiji. Plus, if you visit Fiji between July and October, you’ll be able to catch some humpback whale migration. The dry season is also peak travel time, so be prepared for crowds.

If you want to experience Fiji with fewer crowds, then you might consider visiting during the wet season that runs from November to April. The temperatures and humidity are higher during this time of year, and rainfall is much more frequent. Plus, this is the tropical storm season, so some of the rainfall can be more severe. The good news is the wet season is often less crowded, and less expensive, and the vegetation around Fiji is more vibrant and alive.

Best Fiji Honeymoon Resorts

In planning your trip, the most important decision is which of the great Fiji Villa Rentals, hotels, or resorts for honeymooners is right for you and your soon-to-be spouse. There are options for every preference.

How to Reach Fiji for a Honeymoon

Fiji is best reached by airplane. Many major metropolitan cities – L.A., Hong Kong, and Sydney – offer direct flights. Flying from other departure cities will likely require layovers and multiple flights. 

After determining your departure city, you’ll need to decide which airport to fly to. Fiji actually has two major airports. The first is Nadi International Airport which is located on the main island of Viti Levu. But there’s also Nausori International Airport in the capital city of Suva. Most airlines fly into Nadi International Airport, so if your accommodations are on other islands, you’ll need to find additional transportation options.

Best Fiji Islands for Honeymooners

Fiji is a paradise encompassing about 330 islands, only one-third of which are inhabited. The amount of the South Pacific Ocean that Fiji spans is approximately one-half million square miles. A person could get lost just thinking about all of that gorgeous real estate spread across a dreamy blue ocean. But there’s no need to get lost when you travel to Fiji. 

There are many wonderful hotels and resorts on islands that have distinct features of their own. Fiji has two main islands, Viti Levu and Vanua Levu, that are larger than most. One way to narrow down choices for your honeymoon site is to learn what the various islands have to offer. The following is information about some of the best Fiji islands or groups of islands for honeymooning.

The Mamanuca Island Group

The islands that are closest to the main Fuji airport–Nadi International Airport on Viti Levu—are the Mamanuca group of islands. It will feel as though you are on your own private piece of paradise on any of these islands.

Main attractions tourists enjoy include the site where the movie Castaway, starring Tom Hanks, was filmed. It is also the home of Cloudbreak, the planet’s best wave for surfers. The Mamanuca Islands are an excellent choice if you are only staying for two or three days.

 The Yasawa Island Group

A more remote location in Fiji is the Yasawa Island Group. Travel there from the Nadi airport can take up to six hours by boat, but you can also get there by helicopter or airplane. In the entire world, it is difficult to find clearer water or finer sands. 

The classic movie Blue Lagoon which stars Brooke Shields was filmed there. The islands are less commercial and less populated than the Mamanucas. There is an especially diverse landscape, with elevations of up to 1,800 feet above sea level in the Yasawas.

Taveuni Island

For a rare experience combining exotic jungles with breathtaking beaches, Taveuni Island is ideal. The island is known as the garden of Fiji. You can swim at the foot of waterfalls in the jungle, enjoy magnificent snorkeling, and explore Lake Tagimaucia, a top tourist destination located in a volcanic crater. Hikers love to visit Bouma National Heritage Park, which has many trails to explore, including a two-hour walk to Wanibau Falls.

Things to Do on a Fiji Honeymoon

Snorkeling and scuba diving are activities you can enjoy on many of the Fiji islands. There are diverse coral reefs, including the Rainbow Reef and Vuna Reef off the coast of Taveuni Island.

Things to do on Fiji islands include relaxing on beaches, kayaking, cruising between islands, skydiving, zip-lining, watching exotic birds, banana leaf massages, surfing, and much more. The following are three of the more unique experiences Fiji has to offer.

Sample Fijian Culture

The only place to taste Fijian culture is, of course, in Fiji. No matter which island you honeymoon on, you can experience much of the culture in Nadi, where the airport is located. Visit the open-air souvenir market in Nadi, where you can purchase traditional Fijian crafts, such as cannibal forks, which are shaped like scepters and provide a hint about the region’s history. Saris painted by hand are favorite souvenirs, as are other unique crafts by Fijians.

Kava Ceremony

Experience a traditional kava ceremony, a practice in which Fijians welcome guests. Participants all sit in a circle as a drink from pounded kava root is prepared by the host. The chief guest takes a drink first, and it is passed to the others.

This is considered a happy ceremonial event by the locals. If you’re worried about the taste, no need. Kava root tastes much like water but with a hint of a powdery, bitter taste.

Firewalking Ceremony

The Fijian practice of Vilavilairevo, or “jumping into the oven,” is what we know as fire walking. This practice originated with the Fijian people of Beqa Island. Legend has it that the people of Beqa Island persuaded a spirit god named Tui Namoliwai to forever give their people the amazing ability to walk on scalding hot stones.

Firewalking ceremonies are held at many resorts throughout Fiji, though the men who perform the feat are virtually always from Beqa.

What to Pack for a Fiji Honeymoon

Because Fiji is a tropical rainforest, you’ll want to make sure you pack clothing that is lightweight and breathable. Additionally, you’ll want to make sure you have comfortable hiking shoes and a lightweight rain jacket. 

You’ll also need to include swimming attire including swimsuits and a coverup. If you plan to explore any coral reefs, then you’ll want to make sure you have sturdy water shoes. And, if you have your own snorkeling gear, it’s a good idea to pack that as well. However, if you plan to do some underwater exploring, that equipment can be provided for you by a number of resorts. 

The more you know about Fiji, the more convinced you are that the approximately 20-hour flight from Miami, Florida, to get there is well worth it. Once you touch down, you’ll be overwhelmed by the breathtaking views and exciting adventures to experience. Fiji is a top honeymoon destination.
