Your home away from home
Fiji is very popular with tourists from both Australia and New Zealand, so there are a multitude of accommodation options. Choose from 5 star luxury in the heart of Denarau, or go for something with a little more soul, move out of the tourist hub and venture to the islands and coastal areas for a more authentic and tranquil experience.
Sonaisali Island Resort is a great example and is only 20 mins away from Nadi International Airport.
From the moment you arrive, Sonaisali Island really is, Your Island!
“Welcome home” was the greeting on arrival from the lovely staff of Sonaisali. It was as though we had met up with old friends.
