hi,
first... i cant seem to post this in the quick help section... it says i am not logged in... but me thinks me is. anyway...
i am taking off on tuesday for new zealand and australia and have a free stopover on fiji (arrive in nadi). i was super stoked on this option at first and booked my stay for 6 nights, however, now i have people telling me that fiji sucks.
is this true? how can an island paradise suck? and, is it cheap or just totally expensive. i arranged to stay at beaccomber island for the first 3 nigts... but this place certainy is not the budget accomodation i had planned for. sounds serene and beautiful... but are there any suggestions (help) on what islands are close to the nadi port that are ok priced... or is there a cool part of the main island that is cheap cheap cheap... but cool cool cool.
i would appreciate any advice and look forward to some of the wit that pops up in these forums as well... even if i am totally screwed on the island.... a little comic relief will go a long way.
Cheers!

Here are a few links that may help-

No matter what negative things you've heard about Fiji, take the time to discover the positive things about your stay there. Different strokes for different folks...

Remember, "Things turn out best, for the people who make the best of the way things turn out."

Have a great time
