Fodor's Expert Review Coconut Grove Beachfront Cottages

With Bouma National Park and three diving companies nearby, this can be the setting for a very active holiday, but most guests choose this three-cottage resort for just the opposite reason. The cottages are a few steps from the beach (unusual for Taveuni) and each has tropical light-wood furnishings, a queen-size bed, porch, and hammock. The two pricier ones have private outdoor showers (the Mango cottage's is grander); the third has an indoor shower and shares an outdoor one with guests coming off the sand. The dining porch's modest plastic furnishings thankfully do not reflect its restaurant-style international cuisine. Choosing the F$135 all-inclusive meal plan allows you to focus that much more on relaxing.
