Fiji Family Accommodation
When families are planning a vacation in Fiji, one main consideration is the type of accommodations on offer. For example, Fiji family accommodation at a hotel or very large resort might consist of two rooms with a door access between the two rooms. If your children are quite young, a more cost-effective solution would be to book a single room that has a double, queen or king bed for parents, plus a double or two twin beds for the children. Most places do not charge for children sharing the same room as their parents. Cribs or baby cots are often available also at no cost, or for a small charge. Sometimes the room may have a rollaway bed beneath a divan that can be used as a couch during the daytime.
Some hotels offer large family suites, which are perfect for families but usually come at a higher tariff.
Many resorts are comprised of individual Fijian bures, which are small cottage type units, often with thatched roof and Fijian features. For families, they often have two-room bures, which are ideal for parents and children, giving privacy as well as a fun 'home away from home'! Surrounded by tropical flowers and usually situated a few steps from the beachfront, this kind of Fiji holiday provides a great beach vacation for everyone.
Another kind of vacation that is very popular with families and groups is the vacation rental, usually on or near the beach. This is in the form of a privately owned beach house, typically constructed of local timbers and often on poles. Pole-houses are common in the tropics as it allows breezes to flow under as well as around the house and keep everything cool on those hot humid days! With full kitchens, outside deck, surrounding tropical garden and beach nearby, this is a true home away from home. In addition to the beach rental homes, one can also find more sumptious villas, providing stylish surroundings and equipment but usually at more cost. Depending on the age of your children, a cruise on one of the Fijian cruise ships is a further option, with larger cabins available to accommodate everyone.
