Cruises come in every style and shape nowadays, from the most basic sightseeing tours to the kind of indulgent all-inclusive tickets that inevitably seem to attract a more upscale set. However, cruises can be limiting. You are forced to follow the prescribed itinerary and often only have a few hours to explore a destination port. For travelers who like to follow their own path, a cruise can be stifling.

Many choose to take an all inclusive cruise because the planning is simple and stress free. The cruise directors decide where you go, what you eat, and what activities you have at hand; all you have to do is show up. But what do you do when you want to spend a few more hours relaxing on the beach, and the boat is leaving in an hour?

Luckily, there is a better way. On Turtle Island, we give you the kind of all inclusive luxury only available on the best cruises, with the freedom you crave. If you are looking for a stress-free vacation without the crowds, schedules, miniscule state rooms, and overbearing cruise ships, then Turtle Island, Fiji, is the answer.

One of the smallest of the Yasawa Islands, Turtle Island nonetheless manages to be the region's stand-bearer for luxury. With eight private beaches, 14 ultra-secluded "bures" for guests, and a staff that can accommodate any wish you desire, this is truly a superior breed of indulgence. Here, you can indulge in excellent meals, a wealth of activities, and all the splendor of the South Pacific without the inconveniences of a cruise.

From slow-cooked suckling pig through champagne beach picnics, this is a place that soothes the soul and renews the spirit. You can even ride on horseback whenever you wish, relax in a hammock with chilled lobster or take a swim in the world-famous Blue Lagoon. You could take an all inclusive cruise, but why waste your time when you can experience the exceptional beauty and relaxation of Turtle Island.

Fiji is famous for its hospitality, but nothing quite matches the experience of Turtle Island's technology-free utopia. With room for just 28 guests at a time, the island rewards elite vactioners who know how to unwind after a life of hard work. Feel free to contact TurtleFiji.com for more information anytime.
