Matangi Private Island Resort

The 240-acre Matangi Island, stretching northeast of Taveuni in the shape of a grin, is one of the greatest islands to stay on in Fiji for couples. The picturesque Matangi Private Island Resort is a popular wedding and honeymoon resort on the island.

The island is an extinct volcanic crater with coral reefs surrounding Horseshoe Bay, a sensuous curve of white sand beach flanked by palm trees.

The thatched bures, which are air-conditioned, combine natural textures with modern amenities. Some are split-level treehouses on stilts that stretch up into the thick jungle canopy, while others are scattered along the shore. The water's edge is guarded by a luxurious spa.

Diving, fishing, swimming, kayaking, traditional village and waterfall tours, and treks on adjacent Qamea Island are among the activities available. If lying in a hammock between rustling palms and gazing out at the blue, blue sea is your idea of paradise, you can do so.
