# June Honeymoon Fiji Country forums / Pacific Islands & Papua New Guinea / Fiji
okjunior 05:26 UTC 14 May 2007 | Hey all! My partner and I are in our late 20's and are getting married in June 2008. We've (finally) decided on Fiji for the honeymoon, (The plan is to spend 10 nights in Fiji and have a stopover night or 2 in LA as we're flying from the UK) we want somewhere romantic, tropical, special, beautiful, hot etc,etc. I'm just finding it hard choosing an Island! I've spent the last 3 hours reading through the previous posts, and everything sounds so great. But it's making it difficult to decide, can anyone help?? Our wish list includes: Beachfront Bure accomodation- ideally want somewhere with a plunge pool/ jacuzzi..... Sandy beaches, clear waters- we don't dive but are keen to try scuba, kyaking and jetski type stuff...... Quiet, private place to stay- preferably without children!...... We prefer the thought of hammocks and cocktails and a dip in the jacuzzi, than nights out partying....... HOWEVER>>> and this is where it gets tricky! Although we crave a quiet relaxing honeymoon we'd still like to be able to soak up the local culture (I think that spending 10 nights alone just the 2 of us might leave us tearing our hair out and possibly lead to an early divorce!!).... Don't really want to be castaway with no option of meeting local Fijians, or say, dining out occaisionally (yeah, I realise I'm starting to sound like a spoiled brat here who wants it all his own way, secluded yet with people around to cater to my every whim! Blah Blah!) I'm sorry but I just want everything to be perfect! I realise that some of the smaller Bure type resorts are obviously going to be more cut off from the rest of the world, but is there any way of getting the best of both worlds? I know I'm asking a hell of a lot here :-) sorry! Please help if you can?! Many, many, many thanks in advance to anybody who even bothers to take the time to read my literary epileptic fit here, let alone post a reply! Thankyou |
