Turtle

Island Vacation

These days, many people consider an island vacation to be something like a trip to Maui or Jamaica. That movie version of the perfect island--just a few hundred acres, filled with white sand, lush vegetation and private waterways--seems more like a product of Hollywood fantasy than an actual destination. In fact, there is such a place, and elite travelers know its name well: Turtle Island, Fiji.

This is the real thing: 500 acres of natural wonderment, with dazzling beaches, coral reefs and the South Pacific's most mouth-watering cuisine. Go scuba diving one day or hike up a verdant mountain the next. The unbelievably attentive staff can have a lobster picnic waiting for you on your own private beach upon your return.

Guests often tell TurtleFiji.com the accommodations are unlike anything they have ever seen--14 private "bures" that come with a surfeit of creature comforts. Sunken Jacuzzis, terracotta floors and 21-foot hand-woven ceilings bound your stay here, and your own secluded veranda is perfect for an afternoon nap on the day bed. Get hungry or thirsty at any time and extraordinary fare can be on your doorstep in a matter of minutes.

This is a higher standard of island vacation, one which has attracted its share of movie stars and CEOs. If you want to experience all that magic for yourself, we urge you to look around the site and pick the best time to go. You will never regret a moment of your time here.
