Goway’s Top Four Tips for Booking the Perfect Vacation to Fiji
Known as the heart of the South Pacific, Fiji is one of the most beautiful island destinations in the world. Made up of 333 captivating islands, Fiji is famous for its soft coral, white-sand beaches, turquoise waters, and pristine natural environment with over 100 uninhabited islands—all waiting for your clients to explore.
To help your clients see this gorgeous South Pacific nation, we’ve put together Goway’s top four tips for booking that perfect Fijian vacation:
Book a stay in a bungalow, better known in Fiji as a “bure”
The lead-in room category is typically a resort room, so we recommend upgrading your clients to stay in a “bure,” a freestanding Fijian-style bungalow, which features a traditional design and a thatched roof, along with modern deluxe amenities. If your clients have a little more in their budget, we suggest a Beachfront Pool Bure for the ultimate experience.
Special touches
Consider offering your clients some unique upgrade ideas, including recommending Business Class on Fiji Airways. You can pre-book your clients a day pass to the all-new Malamala Beach Club, 25 minutes from Port Denarau, or a scenic seaplane or helicopter transfer to their resort, which is especially helpful for those travellers short on time. As well, it is always important to ensure you advise your Idyllic Islands Expert if your clients are celebrating a special occasion, such as an anniversary, birthday, or honeymoon, as most resorts will offer their guests something complementary.
Staying longer at one resort allows your clients to save more
Most resorts offer free nights for travellers as an incentive for spending 6 or 7 nights at their property. For example, the 5-star Savasi Island offers a year-round “Stay 7 Nights, Pay for Only 5 Nights” promotion making it a very reasonably-priced property located on the Northern Island of Vanua Levu.
Pre-purchasing meal plans can equal savings
Most Fijian resorts offer the option of upgrading your meal plan, which you can purchase at the time of your reservation (and pay in your local currency), making the trip hassle-free as it removes the stress of spending additional money. It’s also often better value since it saves you the extra taxes you’d be subject to in destination. Some resorts even have special promotions, such as Castaway Island Resort, which offers a value meal special on stays 5 nights or longer that includes a heavily-discounted rate on your meal plan.
