Posted on Mar 28, 2015 | 1 comment

Fiji is one of my dream destinations. The crystal clear waters, the calm, happy people, the food, the rainforests, the local markets – it seems like such a peaceful wonderland.

Now my dream is becoming a reality and it seems that I will be able to share with you everything you need to know about planning, packing, traveling, exploring, spoiling yourself and even unpacking for a trip to Fiji! Over the next few months we are going to be talking about all things Fiji!!

Koro Sun Resort, Matangi Private Island Resort and The Intercontinental Fiji Golf Resort & Spa are sponsoring us to come stay with them in Fiji for 8 Nights! I am sooo excited and cannot wait to get started planning my trip.

Today I begin my #FijiHappy series. We will start with the first step to planning our adventure to paradise.

Step 1 to planning your Fiji vacation:

Since my destination has already been chosen, we are going to start with: a. discovering what each resort has to offer and then b. research the best time of year to go.

This can easily be done by checking each resort’s/destination’s list of activities and jotting down all of the activities you would like to do. This is just the first step so at this point put down anything that interests you, we will be narrowing this list down later.

1. We will be spending three (3) blissful nights at the Koro Sun Resort (yes, this is where they filmed the bachelorette last summer!)! Check out these pics from their site – I can’t wait to add my own!

It looks magnificent! Relaxing and yet invigorating all in one place! The activities I look forward to checking out here are: The snorkeling, the paddle boarding, the school visit, the waterfall tour, the town & market trip, a scuba diving excursion and of course some spa treatments, a walk in the rain-forest, the pools at this resort and the food! I can’t wait!

Fiji Fun Fact – Did you know that paddle boarding was invented in Fiji?

We will be spending three (3) idyllic nights at the Matangi Private Island Resort Fiji. Check this out:

I can’t wait to get to this place, it looks like a little piece of paradise! The activities that I look forward to checking out here are kayaking, snorkeling, scuba diving, Matangi Bush Hike & Coastal Walk, Village Tour – Qamea island, Calypso Catamaran sailing excursion, the coconut show – I have written about the benefits of Coconut Oil so it will be fun to see them in their home state, fishing, Horseshoe Bay Picnic, Civa Pearl Farm & Tavoro Waterfall Tour – Taveuni island, Lavena Coastal Walk – Taveuni island, 180 degree Meridian & Waitavala Waterslide Tour – Taveuni Island and a couple of spa treatments! Oh my, that is a long list! Can you tell I am super stoked?!

The Intercontinental Fiji Golf Resort & Spa will be hosting us for two (2) magical, sublime nights and after looking at their pictures and list of activities, I am more thrilled than ever. Here are a few pics from their website:

Incredible, right? Here are some activities that I would like to try: Nightly fire-lighting ceremony, South Pacific Fire Dancing, Tribal Drumming Show, spa treatments, snorkeling, kayaking, checking out that divine pool, the restaurants and surrounding villages! It all looks so spectacular!

With all of my activities listed out, I can go ahead, research the time of year and pick the best time for us to go!

1. Upon researching the best time of year to go to Fiji, I have come across so much info that it begs its own post! Check back this #TravelTuesday to find out when I have chosen to go and why!

I am so glad I can share my Fiji journey with you! Be sure to check back for updates on how the travel planning is coming along!

Safe Travels!
