From good, no-bunk dorms to stand-alone bures in an array of configurations, all the way up to top-end suites and family villas, Octopus offers something for everyone. Despite the disparity, it all works out: this is a favourite Yasawas getaway for both family and free-wheeling types. With a beach perfect for slacking or snorkelling, super-friendly staff and amenities galore, what's not to love?
The kids club frees up parents keen to unwind with daily yoga, spa treatments and Fijian cooking classes. Other activities include handline fishing, village visits and movies by the pool; a two-tank dive/PADI Open Water Course costs $235/895.
The compulsory meal package (adult/child $106/70) includes excellent à la carte lunches and ever-changing dinners: chefs cater to dietary requirements and allergies.
In addition to the Yasawa Flyer, guests can arrive via direct transfer from Vuda Point Marina (adult/child $177/88 one way, 1¼ hours).
