Plan an Adults-Only (Child-Free) Trip to Fiji

We get it: islands as beautiful as they are in Fiji, with their glistening waters and sandy shores, are kind of ruined when there’s a soundtrack of child tantrums… Luckily, Fiji is the king of adult-only getaways, with around 20 different resorts that are exclusively for guests over the age of 16 – that’s not counting the resorts for guests over 12 years and resorts with separate adult-only areas. So now that you know how easy an adults-only holiday to Fiji is to achieve, where should you go? We’ve put together this complete adults-only vacation guide to Fiji to help you find the answer.

How to Get to Fiji

What is the best way to get to Fiji? Fiji can be accessed by flight, cruise ship or private sailing yachts. The most popular way to get to Fiji is by international flight, so let’s start with that.

Flying to Fiji

Direct international flights come from Australia, New Zealand, Hawaii, Vanuatu, New Caledonia, Nauru, Samoa, the Solomon Islands, Tonga, Kiribati, Tuvalu, Wallis & Futuna, the US, Canada, Japan, Hong Kong and Singapore. If you are coming from further afield, then you will need to make a connecting flight most likely in Australia, New Zealand, or the US. See Which Airlines Fly Directly to Fiji? for more information.

Although Fiji has two international airports, around 97% of visitors to Fiji come via Nadi International Airport on the island of Viti Levu (Fiji’s main island). Learn more in our guide, Which Airport to Arrive in Fiji.

Cruises to Fiji

Fiji is on the itinerary of several South Pacific cruises from Australia, New Zealand and French Polynesia. There are five ports of call in Fiji, the main ones being Suva, Lautoka and Port Denarau. Cruises occasionally stop at Dravuni Island and Savusavu. Find out which cruise companies have Fiji on their itinerary in the 10 Best Cruises That Visit Fiji, as well as what to do at each port of call in The Guide to Taking a Cruise to Fiji.

Sailing to Fiji

Fiji is conveniently located at the centre of the Transpacific journey between the US and New Zealand. The yachting season is between May and October. Learn about the sailing formalities and the ports of entry in The Sailing Guide to Fiji.

A Note on Customs Declarations

Fiji has strict biosecurity measures at the border to stop unwanted pests and diseases from entering the country. Therefore, anyone arriving in Fiji has to declare any “risk items” they have packed in their luggage – even common items like food and sports gear. Be sure to read up on Everything You Need to Know About Arriving in Fiji so you are prepared.

Check out our complete guide on How to Get to Fiji for even more tips on making your way to the islands of Fiji.

When to Visit

Fiji is a tropical country and experiences warm temperatures throughout the year. It has two distinct seasons: a dry season, which is drier and cooler, and a wet season, which is hotter and humid. Learn more about the climate in What is the Weather Like in Fiji?

Dry Season (May to November)

The dry season is also known as the winter season in Fiji, although many would not describe it as winter, with temperatures around 19-29 °C (66-84°F). The rainfall per month is an average of 70-150 mm (2.8-6 in). The dry season is also the time for swimming with manta rayssurfing big waves, clearer scuba diving conditions and catching sailfish, skipjack tuna and wahoo.

Wet Season (December to April)

The wet season is hotter and more humid, with temperatures around 22-33°C (72-91°F) and an average monthly rainfall of 180-310 mm (7.1-12.2 in). This is also Fiji’s cyclone season, which means there’s a risk of cyclones (but only a risk, which you can learn more about in How to Prepare for a Cyclone in Fiji). The wet season is also the best time to catch marlin, yellowfin tuna, and mahimahi, as well as avoid other tourists.

The Best Time to Take an Adults-Only Trip to Fiji

An obvious go-to for an adults-only trip to Fiji is anywhere outside of the Australian and New Zealand school holidays, where the islands, particularly Viti Levu and the Mamanuca Islands, get hectic with families. In other words, avoid the second half of April, especially July, the first half of October and the end of December through January.

Still can’t decide when the best time is to travel to Fiji? Check out our complete guide, The Best Time to Visit Fiji, which dives much deeper into the subject.

What to Pack for Fiji

The main thing you need to keep in mind when packing for Fiji is having a tropical wardrobe that includes some more modest items of clothing for visiting Fijian villages. A packing list for Fiji might look a little something like this:

👗 Fiji Casual Clothing
4 Singlets/T-Shirts
2 Blouses/Shirts to cover the shoulders for visiting villages and sun protection
2 Shorts/Skirts
1 Light evening dress to impress at dinner
1 Dress/Skirt below the knee for town or village visits (light fabrics recommended, such as bamboo dresses by Moso Morrow)
1 Sarong (Sulu) for the beach and swimwear cover-up
1 or 2 Light sleepwear if you’re against sleeping in your undies
1 Light Cardigan/Pashmina/Poncho for cooler evenings
1 Sports shorts/Leggings for active activities
1 Sports T-shirt/Singlet for active activities
1 Warm fleece if you plan to do mountain hikes
1 Outfit to travel between Fiji and home
3 Bras (strapless, sports, and comfortable bras)
6 Underwear
4 Socks
👙 Fiji Swimwear
1 Bikini for resort beach/pool
1 One-piece for watersports/village stays
2 Boardshorts for guys
1 Rash vest (we like sustainable Sharkskin rashies)
👒 Fiji Sun, Rain, and Insect Protection
Sunhat
Sunglasses
Light shirt to cover arms and back
Light rain jacket/small umbrella
👟 Fiji Footwear
Flip-flops/sandals
Walking shoes/sandals
Reef shoes/water shoes

And that’s just clothes! For a full packing list of everything to take, including accessories and toiletries, check out The Complete Packing List for Fiji.

Health Products

With high UV levels and the presence of mosquitos, certain health products are essential to take to Fiji. Fiji also has a fragile marine ecosystem, so reef-safe sunscreens and repellents are a must. If going to the outer islands, a reusable water purification bottle is preferable to buying bottled water for obvious environmental reasons. See our health essentials packing list in What Medication to Pack in Your First Aid Kit for Fiji.

Fiji Currency

The currency in Fiji is Fijian Dollars. While credit/debit cards are accepted in major resorts and businesses in Fiji’s towns, you should have cash available for taxis and visiting villages. Get more money tips in What is the Best Way to Pay in Fiji?

Travel Documents and Paperwork

Visitors from around 100+ countries do not need a visa to visit Fiji but do need a passport that is valid for no less than six months after your intended date of departure – see visa-exempt countries in our Fiji Tourist Visa Guide. There may be other current entry requirements, which we keep updated in What Documents Do I Need to Travel to Fiji? More info can also be found on the Fiji Tourism Travel Advisory page.

How Long to Spend in Fiji

Admittedly, Fiji makes an idyllic getaway for just staying in the same resort for a few days to a week – and that’s fine; we all need some R&R from time to time. More intrepid travellers, however, will find that Fiji is an excellent country not only for island-hopping but road tripping around Viti Levu.

We’d recommend the minimum number of days to spend in Fiji is five days if just visiting Viti Levu, the Mamanuca Islands or the Yasawa Islands. However, 10 to 14+ days is the recommended number of days for a satisfying trip to Fiji, especially if you include some island-hopping, such as visiting Vanua Levu and Taveuni.

For those of you who want to explore, here’s what you can achieve in certain timeframes… (And don’t worry, we’ll get onto the destinations in the next few sections).

3 Days / A Long Weekend in Fiji

Over a long weekend, you will have just enough time to experience the adults-only resorts of the Mamanuca and Yasawa Islands, as well as see a bit of Nadi on your way back to the airport. See an example itinerary in the Fiji Adults-Only Itinerary: 3 Days / Weekend.

5 Days in Fiji

Five days is enough time for a quick island-hopping itinerary in the Mamanuca and Yasawa Islands or check out Fiji’s landscape of resorts and adventure activities along the Coral Coast and Pacific Harbour. Alternatively, those with more budget could take a charter flight to and between Vanua Levu and Taveuni. Check out Fiji Honeymoon & Romance Itinerary: 5 Days for more inspiration.

7 Days / 1 Week in Fiji

A week in Fiji gives you time to relax in any one of the island groups, but for those who want to move around, you could do some serious island-hopping in the Mamanuca and Yasawa Islands. Alternatively, you could explore between the two less-visited islands, Vanua Levu and Taveuni. See Fiji Adults-Only Itinerary: 7 Days / 1 Week (Island-Hopping) and Fiji Adults-Only Itinerary: 7 Days / 1 Week (Savusavu & Taveuni) for trip ideas.

14 Days / 2 Weeks in Fiji

14 days allows you to extend itineraries suggested for a week. It will also give you time to explore a mix of the Mamanuca and Yasawa Islands, as well as Viti Levu, Vanua Levu and Taveuni, all of which are the best islands for adults-only resorts… Check out more suggestions in Fiji Adults-Only Itinerary: 14 Days / 2 Weeks.

How Long Can You Stay in Fiji?

Visitors to Fiji can stay up to four months! Visitor extensions are available, however, which you can learn more about in our guide, How Long Can You Stay in Fiji on a Visitor Visa?

Where to Visit: Viti Levu

Viti Levu is Fiji’s main island and the island you will arrive at. Before you dismiss the island for one of the more postcard-perfect outer islands, consider Fiji’s largest island, as it may just have everything you need minus the associated cost and time of overwater travel.

Viti Levu is split into several exciting regions, from the bustling town of Nadi to the adventure capital of the Pacific Harbour. Some of the regions, like the Coral Coast and the Pacific Harbour, have exclusive adult-only resorts, while other tourist hotspots like Nadi and Denarau have resorts with adult-only areas. Elsewhere, you’re better off hiring a holiday home or villa for a holiday experience away from other tourists.

Nadi, Denarau and the Coral Coast

If you are on a limited time in Fiji or you just don’t want to waste time getting to a resort, your best destinations to hit are Nadi, Denarau and the Coral Coast. These are the regions closest to Nadi International Airport, each with resorts that have adult-only areas or there are exclusively adult-only resorts on the Coral Coast. In terms of activities, spas, private fishing charters, and scenic helicopter flights are all ways to enjoy these areas without kids.

Learn more about planning an adults-only getaway to these areas in the following guides:

Pacific Harbour, Suva and the Suncoast

For travellers looking for a getaway with some independent exploration without too many holidaying families around, try out the less-visited regions of Viti Levu, like the Pacific Harbour and the Suncoast. The Pacific Harbour is dubbed Fiji’s “Adventure Capital”, where there are plenty of adrenaline activities to enjoy, from scuba diving with sharks to jet ski safaris.

The Suncoast provides a more tranquil retreat, where you can see a more rugged yet authentic side of Viti Levu with amazing cave and waterfall hikes that you won’t see many families opt for.

As for Suva, it’s Fiji’s capital so you’ll struggle to get any peace here, but that’s the whole point.

Learn more about these regions in the following guides:

Be sure to check out The Complete Travel Guide to Viti Levu and A Guide to the Fiji Regions & Island Groups for more of a comparison.

The Complete Adults-Only Travel Guide to Fiji© FijiPocketGuide.com

Where to Visit: Mamanuca and Yasawa Islands

The Mamanuca and Yasawa Islands are home to the majority of Fiji’s adult-only resorts, most of which are on private islands like a sanctuary protected from disturbance. The islands are a 30-minute to four-hour ferry journey from Port Denarau and Lautoka, while a 10 to 30-minute helicopter or seaplane flight will get you to the islands more quickly and intimately.

Mamanuca Islands

The lapping waves on the soft white sand, the glistening waters and swaying palm trees make the Mamanuca Islands of Fiji one of the most peaceful places in the world. The tranquillity is maintained by the island group’s array of adult-only retreats. Explore the adventure tours, relaxation activities and cultural experiences in The Adults-Only Guide to the Mamanuca Islands.

Yasawa Islands

The Yasawa Islands is home to four fantastic adult-only resorts exclusively for guests over 16 years old. The islands are also frequented regularly by an adult-only small ship cruise, giving adults plenty of options to spend their much-deserved “Fiji time“. Learn more in The Adults-Only Guide to the Yasawa Islands.

Be sure to check out The Best Islands to Visit in Fiji for more of a comparison.

The Complete Adults-Only Travel Guide to Fiji© FijiPocketGuide.com

Where to Visit: Vanua Levu and Taveuni

Located in the northern region of Fiji, the larger islands of Vanua Levu and Taveuni are not only fantastic destinations for adult-only resorts, but the islands are far less visited than the previously mentioned destinations. That often means the right tone is set for the majority of your time here on these beautiful islands, which are famous for their volcanic landscapes with lush forests, as well as their otherworldly coral reefs.

Vanua Levu

A relaxing vacation with friends or just your loved one is easily achieved at Fiji’s second-largest island thanks to its collection of adult-only resorts, luxury private holiday homes and resorts for couples. It’s a top destination for scuba divers, as well as those seeking a relaxing retreat at resorts with award-winning spas and adult-only areas. Find out more in The Adults-Only Guide to Vanua Levu.

Taveuni

Taveuni is also known as Fiji’s “Garden Island” thanks to its fertile soils and the fact that around 80% of the island is covered in the lush tropical forests of the Bouma National Heritage Park. With a wide range of resorts offering very private bures, even the family-friendly accommodations can be very peaceful. Nevertheless, some of Taveuni’s off-shore islands boast adult-exclusive retreats to ensure a child-free getaway in Fiji. Learn more in The Adults-Only Guide to Taveuni.

Be sure to check out The Best Islands to Visit in Fiji for more of a comparison.

Where to Visit: Kadavu, the Lomaiviti and Lau Islands

You hardly need to worry about noisy kids at these rarely visited island groups of Fiji. That’s not to say that there isn’t anything here for tourists. In fact, it might just be the perfect destination for an adult-only retreat, as the islands are so tranquil that adult-only resorts are just not needed.

Kadavu

This large island in the southern region of Fiji might not have any adult-only resorts, but all of the resorts here are boutique, providing a relaxed experience. In terms of adventure, Kadavu is home to some of the best and most uncrowded surf breaks and dive sites in the Great Astrolabe Reef. Villages and resorts are limited to the coastal areas of the island, making island hikes a real adventure. Find out more in The Complete Guide to Kadavu.

Lomaiviti Islands

Scattered along the eastern side of Viti Levu, the Lomaiviti Islands are just a 10-minute flight from Suva. The islands are steeped in history and home to a UNESCO World Heritage Site. The scuba diving is also incredible, while resorts range from the absolute budget, where drinking kava with the locals on an evening is a common pastime, to absolute luxury, where resorts like The Wakaya Club have such private residences that it feels “adult only”. Find out more in The Complete Guide to the Lomaiviti Islands.

Lau Islands

Finally, the Lau Islands are very rarely visited by tourists, but surprisingly, there is one resort here. Guess what? It’s an adults-only resort. If you were looking for the most exclusive adult-only experience in Fiji, this would be it. Find out more in The Complete Guide to the Lau Islands.

Be sure to check out The Best Islands to Visit in Fiji for more of a comparison.

How to Get Around Fiji

Yes, after seeing the number of island groups in Fiji, let alone the different islands and some of the larger islands to explore, you’re probably wondering: how do I get around all of these islands?

Transport differs between island groups. More touristic islands, such as the Mamanucas and Yasawas, are well-serviced with ferries, seaplanes and water taxis, while the lesser-visited islands may only have transport provided by your chosen resort. The main ways to get around Fiji include:

Domestic Flights

There are two scheduled domestic carriers in Fiji, both offering regular flights between Fiji’s most populated islands. Learn more about these flights in The Complete Guide to Flights in Fiji.

Charter Flights

Charter flights via fixed-wing, seaplane and helicopter aircraft are available in Fiji to take passengers between Fiji’s island groups, particularly Viti Levu and the Mamanucas, Yasawas, Vanua Levu, Taveuni and Kadavu. Find out more in our guide, Where to Hire a Plane or Seaplane in Fiji and Where to Hire a Helicopter in Fiji.

Ferries

High-speed catamaran ferries service the Mamanuca and Yasawa Islands from Port Denarau in Viti Levu, while the slower passenger, vehicle and cargo ferries run from Suva in Viti Levu to the Lomaiviti Islands, Vanua Levu, Taveuni and Kadavu. Find out more in The Guide to Travelling in Fiji by Ferry.

Car Rentals

Rental cars are available in Viti Levu, Vanua Levu and Taveuni. Learn more about hiring a car in The Guide to Renting a Car in Fiji.

Public Buses and Express Buses

Public buses are the cheapest type of transport available in Fiji. They are available in Viti Levu, Vanua Levu, Taveuni and Ovalau. Find out more in our guide, How to Travel Around Fiji by Bus.

Taxis (LT and LH)

Taxis in Fiji can be identified by their “Taxi” signs and “LT” at the beginning of the registration plate. They offer affordable metered fares within towns, while fares for sightseeing or going between towns can be negotiated. Ground transport operators with “LH” plates are also referred to as taxis, offering transfers, private drivers and sightseeing services. Find out more in The Guide to Taxis in Fiji: LT Vs. LH Plates, How to Use & More.

There are a lot more ways to travel around Fiji, so be sure to browse our Fiji Transport Guide: 20 Best Ways to Get Around Fiji for more advice.

Where to Stay: Adults-Only Accommodation in Fiji

First and foremost, Fiji is a country of resorts. In most cases, resorts handle everything: accommodation, entertainment, tours, and sometimes even transport, as well as your wedding, vow renewals and mor. For these reasons, one of the most important decisions you can make for a trip to Fiji is where you are going to stay.

That’s not to say that Fiji solely has resorts. Alternatively, adult-only cruises are available, as well as private holiday homes and villas away from the tourist crowds.

Take a look at our top recommendations for child-free getaways in the 20 Best Adults-Only (Child-Free) Resorts in Fiji and 10 Best Resorts in Fiji with Adults-Only Areas.

Adult-Only Resorts

The most popular type of adults-only accommodation in Fiji is adult-only resorts. These are resorts exclusively for guests over the age of 16 (or over the age of 12 in limited cases). Resorts typically consist of at least a couple of grades of accommodation, often in the style of a freestanding bure (bungalow) with a restaurant and a range of complimentary and paid activities for guests. Check out some examples in the 20 Best Adults-Only Resorts in Fiji and learn more about choosing a resort in How to Choose the Best Resort in Fiji for You.

Resorts with Adult-Only Areas

Some of Fiji’s major resorts have areas exclusively for adult guests, whether it’s an adults-only swimming pool, a restaurant for adults, and/or a suite of accommodations only for adults. Check out some examples in the 10 Resorts in Fiji with Adult-Only Areas.

Adult-Only Cruises

Blue Lagoon Cruises offers outstanding value with all-inclusive packages in the Mamanuca and Yasawa Islands. You’ll love the ample onshore time, island dinners, and complimentary amenities. We recommend the seven-night cruise for the full experience (the four-night option includes a long boat ride). With free laundry and a wide range of activities, it really feels like they have your back. Find out more in The Guide to Cruises Around Fiji.

Holiday Homes and Villas

While not exclusively for adults, Fiji’s holiday homes and private villas are worth considering for an adults-only holiday as the accommodations are exclusively for your group. In many cases, holiday homes and villas are on private properties away from other tourists, so you don’t have to worry about families disturbing your Fiji time. Check out some examples of the 20 Best Holiday Homes in Fiji and the 10 Luxury Villas in Fiji with a Pool.

Things to Do on an Adults-Only Trip to Fiji

Contrary to popular belief, there’s more to do in Fiji than drink cocktails and sit by the pool. Fiji exceeds at adventure, relaxation and culture. There’s so much to do that we could hardly fit it all into our 101 Things to Do in Fiji: The Ultimate List.

When it comes to the “child-free” experiences in Fiji, here are our recommendations:

Food and Dining in Fiji

From the menus of the restaurants in Fiji’s major towns to the resort restaurants, a wide range of international cuisine is represented in Fiji. Fijian foods are also easy enough to come by, especially on resort menus, while Indo-Fijian cuisine is best sampled at town curry houses. If you find yourself on a less developed island, your resort or homestay host provides meals, typically through meal plans. Everything you need to know about food in Fiji can be found in The Food Guide to Fiji: Places to Eat & Food Tours.

Restaurants and Cafes

Restaurants and cafes come with plenty of choices in Fiji’s most-visited hubs, like Nadi, Denarau, Suva and Savusavu, serving up international favourites, including Asian, European, American and Fijian (mostly kokoda) dishes. Outside these hubs, restaurants can almost only be found at resorts, while smaller towns may have the odd Asian takeaway or street food at markets. Check out the food guide to each of Fiji’s regions in The Food Guide to Fiji: Places to Eat & Food Tours.

Resort Restaurants

While resorts on Viti Levu tend to have à la carte menus or optional meal plans with a wide range of food choices, resorts in more remote areas or less-developed islands typically have fewer options and make the most of scarcer resources. These resorts tend to offer daily set menus, where you’ll need to order your meals a few hours in advance. Many resorts pride themselves on showcasing fresh, locally sourced ingredients, often incorporating traditional Fijian flavours into their dishes. You can expect to find plenty of seafood options, tropical fruits, and international cuisines with a Fijian twist. Some resorts even offer romantic private dining experiences on the beach – perfect for those special occasions! Meal plans are further explained in our guide, Is it Worth Buying a Resort Meal Plan in Fiji?

Self-Catering

Self-catering is relatively easy on Fiji’s most developed islands, Viti Levu, Vanua Levu and Ovalau, with plenty of accommodations with cooking facilities, as well as supermarkets, convenience stores and roadside fruit stalls to pick up supplies. Check out the A Guide to Supermarkets & Food Shopping in Fiji for everything you need to know about a self-catering holiday. Plus, check out The Cost of Food in Fiji for restaurant and grocery store prices.

Special Diets

Vegetarian options are widely available in Fiji. More specific diets, such as veganism and coeliacs, are harder to cater for. Check out our advice in Fiji for Vegans & Vegetarians, as well as The Gluten-Free Guide to Fiji.

Food and Water Safety

There are no major health concerns to be worried about when it comes to food in Fiji. Resort restaurants have a high standard. However, one should be a little wary when it comes to street food – it’s best to try food that is cooked and to avoid drinking tap water (or treat it) if you’re unsure of the quality. See Is the Water Safe to Drink in Fiji? for more advice. Plus, check out Fiji Safety Tips for additional advice.

What Food to Try
