Venue Overview
Turtle Island is a 500-acre privately owned island in Fiji’s Yasawa Islands. Since 1980, the Evanson family has operated a low density, sustainable resort designed to offer an experience that brings out the best of the native lifestyle.
Unlike other resorts, they want guests to know their Fijian staff personally, like family. Group dinner parties are held every night at several locations around the island, where guests can linger for hours among newfound friends. Experiencing this authentic Fijian culture is truly an experience of the heart. Community and cultural immersion is a key part of the Turtle Island experience, and the ambiance and amenities are designed for couples. They offer private beachfront villas, romantic picnics for two, intimate moonlit dine outs, and a number of private beaches to explore. Chosen twice as the location to film Hollywood’s “The Blue Lagoon,” Turtle Island is paradise come to life.
You’ll enjoy spacious and serene villas beautifully designed with indigenous touches and global flair, feasts from land and sea paired with world-class wines, and plentiful experiences - from relaxing and invigorating water sports, to authentic cultural immersion, to memory-making laughter with friends.
Each villa is assigned a “Bure Mama” (your dedicated, personal concierge) to fulfill each and every desire of your guests. If your group includes children, we assign nannies or “Bula Buddies” to every child so they also experience the personal attention of a fun-loving Fijian caretaker and activities suited to the child’s age. When you reserve Turtle Island for your personal enjoyment exclusively, we’re delighted to offer you complete privacy and unparalleled service.
Bookings involving three or more couples and buyouts are available on request.

Grand Villa
The Grand Villas are located along the beachfront, overlooking the famous Blue Lagoon. Generous expanses separate these spacious, open plan villas, all landscaped for privacy. Each villa is slightly different in design and layout, reflecting their unique settings. Some villas have spa baths. Others have private outdoor showers.

Vonu Point is the premium villa on Turtle Island, situated on the Northern Point of the Blue Lagoon Beach. With its elevated position, it has magnificent views of the crescent shaped Blue Lagoon Beach and across the lagoon to neighboring islands. Inside, an inviting spa bath overlooks the archipelago.

Wedding Packages
Additional Wedding Packages
Turtle Island is one of the most magical places on the planet to tie or re-tie the knot. They are recognized consistently as one of the world’s best honeymoon destinations. Bride’s Magazine extolled them as the #1 Resort in Fiji, Fiji Airways honored them with the Most Romantic Beach in Fiji, and Fodor’s called us the Most Blissful Beach Retreat, among many other awards and accolades.
The remote paradise is the perfect place for a couple who cherishes their love,
whether new or renewed. Let them make your dream romantic ceremony a reality. Here are the outlined two options, which they're delighted to personalize especially for you.
Totoka Ceremony
Totoka Ceremonies are intimate affairs, for you and your beloved to exchange vows in the sacred presence of one another, nature, and a small circle of staff members, should you choose. You decide where you’d like to experience your ceremony - perhaps on one of our pristine beaches at dawn or dusk, or among the stillness of the trees in a leafy jungle, or from atop our mountain with breathtaking views overlooking the archipelago.
After the ceremony, toast each other with champagne, celebratory cake, and perhaps share a picnic. That evening, other guests in house will love to raise a glass to your love and commitment to one another.
Loloma Levu Wedding
Loloma Levu means lots of love in Fijian and this wedding ceremony is a grand celebration of love. You can arrange this elaborate affair to match perfectly your dreams. Many of their Loloma Levu couples opt to exchange their vows on the Blue Lagoon at sunset.
As the sun kisses the earth goodnight, and the sky blazes in warm color, the bride, attended by a Fijian warrior, is transported across the lagoon in a billi billi, a traditional wedding raft. At the shore, the conch shell is trumpeted to announce her arrival, where she is carried ashore by her warriors to her awaiting groom. As the couple approaches the outdoor altar, drums beat, and the choir sings.
After the wedding, guests and staff participate in a Kava ceremony, an ancient tradition, in honor of the bride and groom. Under the soft glow of lantern lights a champagne toast is made to the happy couple. The celebration continues into the evening with a wedding feast, music and merriment, and dancing.
Both ceremonies above include:
- The Wedding License
- Services of a Methodist minister
- Island flowers
- Champagne and wedding cake
- Wedding video and photo album
- Choir - small choir of 10 members for
- Totoka ceremony; full choir of 50 for Loloma
- Levu wedding
