4 holidays in one: Why Fiji should be your next getaway

From indulgence to wellness and beachside bliss, your perfect island escape awaits in Fiji.

An archipelago of 330 idyllic islands, Fiji’s pristine ocean beauty and welcoming Pacific culture make it a destination for every kind of traveller. From lushly forested mountains concealing freshwater cascades to shimmering reefs and white-sand beaches, Fiji is nothing less than an island paradise. However you like to holiday, you’ll find your perfect stay here with Marriott Bonvoy Fiji, whether you’re all in for adrenaline-spiking adventure, quiet moments of wellness or the classic flop-and-drop escape with a good book and excellent food.

Say “bula!” to your next trip and castaway to one of these incredible Fijian resorts.

For a beach holiday

Dive into watersports at Sheraton Resort & Spa, Tokoriki Island.

Bali often comes to mind when planning a beach holiday, but crowds can detract from the experience. Meanwhile in Fiji, resorts are sprinkled around many islands and are often tucked into secluded beachfront locales – allowing you to completely settle into an island state-of-mind.

One such resort is the incredible Sheraton Resort & Spa, Tokoriki Island in the Mamanuca Islands. A quick 45-minute cruise from Nadi will place you toes-in-sand at this private island, where the reef is right on your doorstep. Lean into the serenity and natural beauty – the soft hues of sunrise and dramatic palettes of sunset are like no other.

Here, dining is not only tasty, it comes with ocean views. Enjoy beachside cocktails, snorkelling in turquoise waters, unwinding at Tokoriki Retreat Spa, or beach cabana dining for private celebrations.

With one side of the resort dedicated to adults-only and the other side family-oriented, you can be sure to find a room to suit your holiday vibe. All accommodation offers tropical garden or ocean views, while select premium rooms are private sanctuaries complete with their own plunge pool.

For a spa holiday

Book in to be pampered by the experts at Fiji Marriott Resort Momi Bay.

While many travellers head to Thailand for cheap massages, those in the know go directly to Fiji for something truly special. This South Pacific nation has a naturally laid-back rhythm that ensures you fall into sync with its gentler pace, making it the perfect place to settle in for a deeply restorative experience.

Find space for the long-awaited exhale at the beautiful Fiji Marriott Resort Momi Bay, where wellness is central to your stay. At the award-winning onsite Quan Spa, the healing properties of water are key to the rejuvenating treatments that also incorporate Thalgo and coconut-based Pure Fiji products. Book in for one of the spa’s signature treatments, such as the Energy Balance by Quan, which includes a massage, facial and body exfoliation.

After time in the spa, guests can continue unwinding poolside, at the beach or in their stunning private retreats in either a lagoon or oceanfront bure or an overwater adults-only bure perched above the crystal lagoon. Or, surfers can head to the famous Cloudbreak just 20 minutes away.

For an adventure holiday

All ages will enjoy guest experiences at The Sheraton Fiji Farm.

Adventure holidays might bring Japan to mind, with bright lights and vast ski fields. But what surprises most travellers is the adventurous side of Fiji. With its tropical vegetation, volcanic-forged topography and endless expanse of blue water to dive into, Fiji is the active traveller’s dream.

At Sheraton Denarau Villas and Sheraton Fiji Golf & Beach Resort – at the heart of Denarau Island – guests choose their own adventure with a selection of water sports, from jet-skiing and boating to snorkelling and water skiing.

When it’s time to dry off, tee off at the picturesque 18-hole golf course. Meanwhile, the kids will be thoroughly entertained with endless activities at the Kids Club.

Guests of all ages can spend time at The Sheraton Fiji Farm – an on-site organic farm at the Sheraton Denarau Villas and Sheraton Fiji Golf & Beach Resort, where fresh produce is grown for both the resort’s restaurants. Book in for Farm to Fork experiences, including farm tours and traditional Fijian “Lovo” feasts cooked underground.

Relax after an action-packed day at your spacious two- or three-bedroom villa, where you have plenty of space to unwind and feel right at home with a full kitchen and private balcony. If you’re not ready to retire for the evening, head to the lagoon-style pool for a sundowner and to relive the highlights of the day.

For a culinary holiday

Tatavu Grill & Bar combines fresh, local flavours and incredible ocean views.

When foodies go on holiday, the national cuisine is always top of mind. Sure, Vietnam is already famous for its culinary treasures, but there’s a whole new gastronomical adventure to experience in Fiji.

It’s no surprise that the ocean’s bounty features heavily in Fijian cuisine, so be sure to sample the country’s signature dishes, such as kokoda, a local ceviche made with raw fish, lemon juice and coconut cream. Or tuck into fish suruwa, a spicy and fragrant fish curry cooked in coconut milk.

You’ll sample Fijian specialities when you stay at Sheraton Fiji Golf & Beach Resort. Dine at the award-winning Tatavu Grill & Bar, set right on the beachfront with a menu featuring fresh produce from the aforementioned farm. This dining experience embraces elemental cooking with dishes served straight off the grill. As the sun sets over the water in Nadi Bay, settle in for this signature feet-in-the-sand dining experience.

Why so popular? Tatavu Grill & Bar features an eye-catching vertical wood-fired grill; the only one of its kind in Fiji. The unique cooking technique uses flame and charcoal to cook proteins, infusing them with smoky flavour. The heavy aromas from the kitchen combine with the salty ocean breeze to create a sensory-driven dining experience.

Guests can choose from a display of fresh market fish, lobster and bugs grilled on the open fire, or choose from the à la carte menu, which features options like grilled adobo marinated octopus with seaweed salad, slow-roasted beetroot, local spinach and blue cheese puree, or traditional local dishes like kingfish kokoda.

Grass-fed-cuts of steak cooked over the open fire grill are popular. Each dish is served with cassava chips, lemongrass-infused creamy mashed potato and local farmed vegetables. While a pick-your-own surf-and-turf menu is available. Guests can choose their cut of steak with either prawn, scallops, a half oyster tail – or opt for Campechana (a mix of all three).
