The Yasawa Island Resort in Fiji will be closed for a few months to repair damage caused by fire. A fire on December 24th, 2009 damaged the resort’s main complex which housed a restaurant, bar, kitchen, stores, boutique, offices and library. No one was injured during the fire. The resort did not specify the cause. The Yasawa Island Resort hopes to reopen by October 1st, 2010.

The Yasawa Island Resort was chosen for the Tripadvisor Top 10 Exotic Beach Destinations in 2008, was the Leading Spa Resort of the 2007 World Travel Awards, and was voted Conde Nast magazine’s Most Romantic Hideaway, South Pacific, Caribbean, Altantic 2006.

Matangi Private Island Resort, Fiij, was recently listed in Islands Magazine April/May 2009 issue as one of the Best Private Islands in the World.

As if the half-square-mile horseshoe-shaped island of Matangi isn’t hidden enough, Fiji’s only treehouse accommodations put the privacy literally over the top. Nestled in the foliage, these three split-level bures transport guests into the jungle. They and the other 10 bures all have beach views, of course. For an even more private beach experience, take a picnic lunch and snorkel gear over to Horseshoe Bay. If you do crave more human interaction, take a scenic boat ride west to join the excited divers in the incredible Somosomo Strait at the famous Great White Wall dive site. You’ll have to climb down from your treehouse, though.
