Location:
South of Viti Levu on Vatulele Island. 
Villas:
Interiors are comprised of a sitting area with built-in sofas, wet bar
w/mini fridge, table and chairs and doors that open onto the terrace.
The bedroom area is a few steps up and has a king-size bed, writing desk
and vanity. Bath area offers a large vanity with hairdryer, toiletries
and an oversized shower with a beautiful river rock floor. In keeping
with the owner's philosophy of creating a "total escape", there are no
money transactions on the island, and no telephones, newspapers, radios
or television in the bures. Due to the lush foliage surrounding your villa,
you will not have an unobstructed view of the sparkling azure waters.
However, just down from your terrace, on a white sand beach, you'll find
your own beach area with a sunshade bure complete with lounges. It's the
perfect place to enjoy some of the most spectacular sunsets and amazing
colors.
"The
Point" Villa: There is only one! This special
unit is a two level bure and is positioned on the highest point of the
resort offering absolute privacy. From its vantage point, it affords a
breathtaking view of the lagoon and the entire 3/4-mile long white sand
beach. This bure offers air-conditioning, bath tub, and a private
fresh water pool with sun deck. On the ground floor you'll find the sitting
area with adjoining bathroom, wet bar with a climate controlled wine cabinet
fully stocked, and a five speaker Bose sound system. The bedroom is located
on the upper level with a king-size bed, a spacious dressing area and
large bathroom with its own balcony. Dedicated butler service.
Restaurant:
One Main Bure. Vatulele has become famous for its food, ranging fromCalifornian
to Thai, Japanese, Austral/Asian and Indian. Fresh ingredients are flown
in daily from Australia and New Zealand. Naturally there is an emphasis
on seafood. The all inclusive tariff allows you ample opportunities to
sample the contents of their first class wine cellar including unlimited
French champagne. Meals are taken on a terrace outside the large central
pavilion overlooking the lagoon. By night, tables are set under the stars
and lit by lanterns and candlelight. At full moon the "dining room" is
usually set by the water's edge. Dining is usually communal, and hosted
by the management - in the style of the Captain's table on a ship. However
there are many options for private dinners, such as a cave in the jungle,
their wine cellar, on the terrace of your villa or on the beach with lantern
or moon light.
Weddings:
The service is usually held on the beach at sunset. Traditional dressed
Fijian Warriors will accompany the bride on a gondola across the
lagoon, and children will toss flower petals along the sand as the bride
is carried ashore. The ceremony is accompanied by the mellow voices of
a village choir raised in sublime harmony. The vows are solemnized by
a Fijian minister. All the guests are invited; they participate in champagne
toasts and the traditional Kava ceremony, a native feast and later enjoy
villager's genuine ceremonial dances.
