clarenceofarabia 01:11 UTC 09 Feb 2020 | Hi brains trust! Looking for a week’s stay with my mum (64 but young at heart) and my 6 month old baby (sleeps & travels well). This is my 4th trip so I know we want to go to the Mamanucas, not stay on the mainland. To give you an idea I love Paradise Cove & Nanuya Resorts but they’re just a tad too far from Nadi, just in case bub gets a fever or whatever or there’s an emergency requiring quick exit to the mainland. Resort must include: Beachfront bure Places to sip cocktails, preferably hammock or lounge lol Secluded & quiet is good, not too full on with families/activities etc (I like the look of Castaway but it seems to lack that quiet/secluded vibe maybe?) Decent snorkelling without needing a boat trip Within 2 hour’s ferry ride of Denarau Not too worried about price as I think most of the expensive resorts don’t allow kids anyway! We plan to spend the days reading, eating, drinking cocktails, snorkelling & looking out to see as the sun sets! No need for planned activities. We’re also travelling in March (rainy season) so a nice room with a view in case we’re innundated would be good. Thanks in advance for suggestions! |
