Part of the elite Auberge Resorts group, this five-pearl all-inclusive has 14 villas and suites on three acres of Fiji's Coral Coast. Families and couples can spread out on the beach and infinity pool, or take advantage of water sports, daily yoga, the wellness center, and cultural excursions organized by a standout staff. The spacious units are elegantly designed, equipped with their own decks and sleek bathrooms, plus many have private pools. Guests are also assigned a personal butler and nanny to help with organizing activities and looking after children. The bar and restaurant offers flexible meal times and plenty of options for private dining. Prepare to spend a pretty penny for the experience, though. Romantics may prefer the more intimate, couples-only Tadrai Island Resort, but rates are higher.

The upscale, 210-room Pearl Resort sits on Fiji's Coral Coast, along both a private beach and Pacific Harbour Marina. The scenic locale faces Beqa Island -- a popular spot for day trips and uncaged shark diving -- and it provides easy access to Suva, Fiji's capital. Rooms have mini-fridges and flat-screen TVs, but those in the old wing show wear and tear, so it's worth upgrading to the modern wing. Hotel features include an outdoor pool, full-service spa, water sports, and an 18-hole golf course. The four restaurants are pricey -- especially Seduce for romantic splurges -- but free buffet breakfasts help make up for it. The nearby Uprising Beach Resort has cheaper dining and a more laid-back vibe, but rooms aren't as contemporary.

The mid-range Uprising Beach Resort is a laid-back property situated on a beautiful section of the Coral Coast. There are 23 contemporary villas and bures -- some along the beach -- that have patios and open-air showers (bring the bug spray), while two budget-friendly dorms are available for groups. The lively restaurant and bar uses produce from the vegetable garden, and free breakfast is served daily. Beach volleyball and non-motorized water sports are free, plus guests may get to see one of Fiji's rugby teams (frequent guests) practicing. Note that minor maintenance issues are possible and Wi-Fi is only free during happy hour. The nearby Pearl Resort has more modern rooms and similar rates.

The 66-room Castaway Island Fiji is one of the more upscale resorts in the Mamanuca Islands, and is particularly popular with repeat families. Amongst the property's extensive grounds are a picturesque beach, two outdoor pools (one for adults only), and free non-motorized water sports. There are also a well-reviewed kids' club, PADI dive center, and tennis court. Rooms have authentic Fijian touches, mini-fridges, and coffee- and tea-making facilities, but you won't find TVs or in-room Wi-Fi here. Meal plans are available for the four restaurants, which includes buffet spreads, wood-fired pizzas, and a beachfront eatery. The pools don't have views of the ocean and the spa isn't up to four-pearl standards, but the ample available activities certainly are positives. Castaway is best suited to families, so couples may prefer the more peaceful, adult-only Lomani Island Resort.

The 101-room, four-pearl Sheraton Resort & Spa is a contemporary beachfront property an hour boat ride from Fiji's main island. The resort shares an island with a smaller property, but they are completely separate and the Sheraton has more affordable rates. Ocean views are sensational from the infinity pool, while the reef offers great snorkeling; there are also a spa and water sports for a fee. Rooms are modern but generic, though those in the adult-only section have private plunge pools and excellent vistas. The restaurant serves quality buffet spreads and a la carte cuisine, plus a bar has daily happy hour. It's worth comparing rates with Castaway Island, which has multiple restaurants and more attractive rooms. The hotel re-opened in February 2017 following a year of renovations to repair damage caused by Hurricane Winston.

A luxury clifftop property with endless ocean views, Taveuni Island Resort & Spa is the ideal place for travelers seeking solitude. The hotel’s 12 massive villas offer supreme privacy, and its adult-only policy provides a peaceful atmosphere. There’s a small pool as well as a tiny beach on-site, but the majority of guests spend their days off-property, exploring the island’s many nature trails and taking advantage of Taveuni’s incredible dive sites. Nightly rates include three meals per day and roundtrip airport transportation. Note that there's a four night minimum stay requirement. The nearby Taveuni Palms Resort, offers better food, nicer rooms, and more freebies, but rates are even pricier.

They weren’t kidding when they named The Remote Resort — a chic all-inclusive boutique hotel located on a secluded peninsula on Vanua Levu. With striking architecture and contemporary decor throughout, The Remote Resort feels different from most other luxury properties in Fiji. But guests can still count on top-notch Fijian hospitality, excellent food, and a laundry list of on-site activities. All seven rooms are beautifully appointed and were constructed with local, sustainable materials. Rooms’ outdoor bathrooms and plunge pools are a real highlight, but some travelers may not like the lack of TVs and air-conditioning. The Remote Resort doesn’t have many communal amenities like a pool, spa, or fitness center, so travelers in search of these features might prefer Paradise Cove Resort, a larger property that tends to be more crowded.

The three-pearl Daku Resort advertises itself as “Vintage Fiji…at vintage prices,” a slogan that hits the nail on the head. Daku is a no-frills place that capitalizes on its stunning location and gorgeous natural surroundings. Its 21 rooms have a casual island-y feel that doesn’t seem contrived. Guests spend their days snorkeling, hiking, kayaking, and even lounging by the pool. Some take advantage of the small spa, while others make use of the open-air yoga studio. Daku often hosts large groups for weeklong retreats in yoga, painting, writing, or birdwatching, which may make non-retreat guests feel left out. Travelers looking for a more intimate setting might prefer the nearby Naveria Heights Lodge, though it’s pricier and farther from the beach.

Sprawled across a gorgeous cliff overlooking the Koro Sea, Namale the Fiji Islands Resort & Spa is the definition of paradise. As a luxurious adult-only resort, Namale is popular with couples, especially honeymooners (there's even a heart-shaped hot tub on the grounds). The gorgeous 19-room resort oozes with romance, and its all-inclusive rates cover everything from excellent dining and top-shelf liquor, to motorized water sports, Savusavu Airport transfers, and horseback riding on the beach. Topnotch amenities include a gorgeous spa, two pools, an indoor bowling alley, and a nine-hole golf course -- but the hotel’s beach is too rocky for swimming. Though Namale is beautifully maintained, the property does show signs of age. Travelers looking for an equally luxurious property with a more modern feel might prefer The Remote Resort, though it doesn’t have nearly as many amenities as Namale.

Located on a massive hill above Savusavu harbor, Naveria Heights Lodge is a charming boutique hotel with postcard-worthy views. The four-pearl property has four individually decorated rooms, an outdoor plunge pool, and a relaxed communal living space. The owner and her small staff prepare delicious daily breakfasts for guests and are happy to arrange local activities and excursions. Unfortunately, the hotel’s location atop a steep hill means nothing is within walking distance, and guests have to rely on staff members to drive them up and down the harrowing road that leads to the property. Nearby Daku Resort is larger and has more on-site amenities, but is farther from town and lacks Naveria’s intimate boutique feeling.
