3. Leleuvia Island Resort

This island resort offers a quieter alternative to the popular backpacker trails in the Yasawas but is mainly that – a backpacker resort.

Meal plans are compulsory, costing half for children under 12 or free of charge for under 5 years. Some of the best snorkelling on the Lomaiviti Islands can be found off the shores or a short boat trip away, while the rest of your time can be filled up with kayaking, sailing, fishing and cultural village visits.
