Crusoe's Retreat - World's 10 Best Beachfront Hotels

Crusoe's Retreat is an warm resort on Fiji's well-known Coral Coast. With only 29 bures (traditional huts), Crusoe's is the ultimate getaway. Situated next to an authentic Fijian village, you are encouraged to experience firsthand how time-honored traditions and olden customs continue.

Beachfront bures start at FJD$335 ($193) and deluxe seaside bures are from FJD$390 ($225) per night. Stay for seven nights in low season and get two nights free -- taking your daily rate to FJD$239 ($138) or FJD$279 ($161), respectively.

These prices include breakfast daily and all taxes (plus tipping is not an accepted practice in Fiji). Admiring resort activities include sea kayaking, snorkeling, beach volleyball, and bush hikes. I’m officially in love with Fiji and Crusoe’s Retreat. My new hubby and I loved the retreat and couldn’t have asked for a better honeymoon. We loved that it was secluded and that it had a mellow atmosphere. After a hectic year, this honeymoon was well deserved and needed.
