Robinson Crusoe Island Resort

Nadi, Suva & Viti Levu


The Robinson Crusoe Island Resort covers all of the tiny coral island of Likuri. Once a determined backpacker resort, it's spruced itself in recent years and offers good-quality accommodation, ranging from tidy dorms to some rather charming thatched and airy bure tucked away in the greenery. For all this, there's a heavy focus on group activities.

Centrepiece of the action is the Pacific Island Dance Show (including fire-walking), part of a whole day tour (Monday, Wednesday and Saturday, adult/child $199/99) that involves snorkelling and a bush walk. Guests (and especially kids) are as likely to enjoy the free activities from crab-racing and jewellery-making – though parents may want to take care when the little ones want to learn how to climb to the top of the coconut palms. There's snorkelling too, although it's poor compared to further along the coast. Transfers from Nadi cost $100.
