If you looking for an ideal luxurious escape for a romantic honeymoon location, the Royal Davui Island Resort, in Fiji, with its stunning scenery is the answer. Royal Davui Island Resort is an exclusive adults-only sanctuary situated in Fiji's spectacular Beqa Lagoon.
To travel to Royal Davui Island, it is a ten hour flight from Los Angeles to Nadi. Fiji. It’s a 40-minute helicopter flight from Nadi Airport or 40 minutes by boat from Pacific Harbour to the Beqa Lagoon with its white sand beaches, and crystal water protected by 32 kilometers of unbroken reef with more than 100 dive sites in the area.
Royal Davui Island is a 3.3 hectare lush island with secluded white sandy beaches which rise steeply on both sides. It is surrounded by a barrier reef with schools of fish, rays, and an occasional turtle. Sixteen exquisitely appointed vales (think bungalow, bure, or villa) nestle around 10 acres of lush tropical landscape. The vales are a blend of Fijian and Pacific architecture, modern décor, and thatched roofs, all creating a paradise of world-class luxury.
Each vale is build on a hill overlooking the turquoise waters of the Pacific and set far enough apart from each other for maximum privacy. Access to each vale is along a winding wooden walkway bordered by lush vegetation, tropical flowers, and peek-a-boo views of the sea. There are no more than 32 guests allowed on the island at any one time, ensuring the ultimate in privacy, personal service and relaxation.
All vales consist of two peaked roof buildings joined by a hallway. Entering a vale, every room has a stunning 180 degree ocean view. One side is devoted to a light and airy living room with wet bar, fridge and coffeemaker, and a two person plunge set beside its balcony. Royal Davui Island Resort is currently the only private island with private plunge pools for each and every vale.
The other side contains the air-conditioned bedroom with king bed, bathroom with double shower and Jacuzzi, double sinks and separate toilet. The roof above the bath can be opened electronically to produce natural light and fresh air. There is a generous deck with table and chairs for private outdoor dining.
Set below the canopy of a banyan tree is Vale Levu, a beautiful al fresco area for dining, The restaurant and the bar offer more amazing views and all meals are included in the room rate. Local seafood and organic fruit and vegetables from Beqa Island are specialties. Guests are served fine Pacific Rim fare either inside or outside on the deck, with two private tables luring honeymooners. Dining is casual – shorts, tee-shirts, and sarongs are suitable for day-time wear, but guests tend to dress a little more formally for dinner.
Day time activities at the resort tend to center around the beach the ocean, pool, and spa. Numerous dive sites are nearby and the snorkeling is excellent right off the beach. Kayaks and sailboats are complementary, and bocce ball and volleyball are popular afternoon activities. Bush hiking on Beqa Island is popular and the “marooned” sandbar picnic with a gourmet picnic for two is one of the most popular optional activities.
Royal Davui Island Resort offers privacy, pampering , and the perfect escape with your special someone. You can stay for just a few days or longer but you are probably best to book and all inclusive vacation package. This beautiful island offers the perfect escape that will be truly unforgettable.
