My Fijian Dream – Accommodations

Castaway Island, Fiji

Castaway Island, Fiji embodies the heart and soul of Fiji. Close your eyes and envision what you think Fiji is like. Now, multiply all the beauty you just envisioned by a thousand and that’s Castaway Island, Fiji. The island’s 174 acres are covered in lush tropical rainforest and surrounded by white sand beaches with vibrant coral reefs and crystal clear azure waters. Add spacious, traditionally thatched Fijian style bures, numerous beachfront activities, and heart-warming hospitality, and you’ve found Castaway Island, Fiji.

When we arrived by catamaran to Castaway Island, I realized that I could be here for years and the beauty would never cease to amaze me. The waters seemed to keep getting more and more clear; at 60 feet above, we could still see the bottom, and the islands kept getting more exotic.

The sun was touching the horizon and casting its rays in all directions. I walked the beach and rubbed my feet in the soft white sand. I could picture retiring here and spending endless days in that exact spot.

Even the water in the pool was the perfect temperature; cool enough to be refreshing yet not cold enough to need a towel when I was done.

Offering family accommodations and options for children, I’m already dreaming about the adventures I can have with my family at Castaway Island, Fiji.

      I wish I had an answer to your question. My answer to everything is… it doesn’t hurt to ask. I ask for the most bizarre things and sometimes they take 🙂

  12. Jill says:

    Love it!! I am dying to go to Fiji…. it is actually cheaper to fly there from where I live than interstate up to Queensland…. go figure!!

  13. I honeymooned in Fiji. It was wonderful. We caught the flight to Fiji with a second to spare. The flight left an hour early.

  14. Wendy Carter says:

    The pictures are beautiful but it is your expert coverage that makes it so real ! Thanks so much for the ‘virtual’ tour of Fiji ! And, yes, I can picture Athena with a white dress and flowers in her hair and the beautiful smile she will wear as she watches you and Darren taking your vows again!

  15. Hi Lesley,

    These photos are crazy! I’ve been to the South Pacific and Hawaii, but wow–I can’t wait to see the Fiji Islands. I love all of the shots, but the thought of your little one in a white dress for your wedding-vow renewal might be the prettiest 🙂 Thanks for warming up this chilly, grey NJ day.

    When I was here last week I didn’t notice that Fiji, Australia and the area was on your bucket list. Those places were on mine as well along with riding on a motorcycle and publishing a book. To my surprise I published first and THEN went to Fiji, Australia and New Zealand. Yet to be done? Ride on a motorcycle–how weird is that! Jane Grace
