Google Earth Hotels: Go Where The Aussies Go
What is the closest thing to travel dogma? Hangin' with Australians is usually a good time.
Since Nadi airport is a relatively quick four hour flight from Sydney, many Australians turn to Fiji when they are looking for a little island fun, which they tend to pronounce Fay-gee.
One Fijian resort we have recently heard Australian's praising is Castaway Island Resort in the Mamanuca group of islands.
Castaway sits on a 174 acre tropical island complete with thatched beach front bures, and a palm tree surrounded pool where you can get fruity booze drinks.
While there are plenty of island type activities here (scuba, sailing, Teivovo island hoping) the overwhelming Castaway theme is relaxation.
One cultural tip: Fiji is a very catholic society and so unwed couples sharing a villa may get some glares. On the other hand, children are apparently extremely well received here.
After you fly in Nadi, there are three ways to get to Castaway, sea plane, helicopter, and boat. It goes without saying what mode of transport we would choose--you know we have a serious sea plane fetish over here.
