Around Denarau


Denarau Island is a man made structure, reclaimed land from mangrove swamp and home to luxury hotels and multi million dollar homes and equally impressive boats. It is an easy walk between all the resorts. Several of the resorts have hammocks on the beach.








A couple of the resorts also have their own wedding chapels, most facing west to make the most of the spectacular sunsets.






The pool complexes at the other resorts were quite different to the Radisson, mainly groups of much smaller pools. This is the Westin with the bures covering the spas.






The port or marina area of Denarau is a relatively new complex and home to numerous bars and restaurants as well as the departure point for boat trips to the islands. We ate here every night as we enjoyed the atmosphere and variety of food on offer, though lobster 3 times on holiday may have been a bit extravagent!!





The easy way to get around Denarau was on the Bula bus which calls into every resort and the marina.
