Description:
Maravu Plantation Resort ...where your dreams come true. . . . . .
The flower island Taveuni, third-largest of the Fiji Islands, derives its magical atmosphere from its pristine beauty, the lush garden landscapes, its hidden lakes and waterfalls, its high mountains, its black and white beaches and from the genuine warmth of its people.
This island, a refuge for individualists, has become the home of Angela and Jochen Kiess who feel a deep love and respect for Fiji. It's a perfect Hideaway offering adventure and relaxation, culture and the unique experience to meet the people who have been here since ancient times.
The setting of the Resort is spectacular - tucked amongst 56 acres of coconut groves; lush tropical rainforest and a golden sandy beach simply inviting you to relax and fill your soul with the spirit of an unspoiled live style. Maravu has only 12 elegant Bures (Villas) to ensure space, freedom and privacy. They all are situated to face the tropical sunset, to be enjoyed from your large veranda.
The staff will meet you at Taveuni airport just after your 60-minute flight from Nadi, and only 5 minutes later the Maravu magic begins. You will be welcomed with a complimentary fresh iced coconut drink, beautifully decorated with tropical flowers.
Maravu`s main building with its own walls and a thatched roof is decorated with Fijian art like carved bowls, masks, pottery, driftwood and painted Tappa pictures. Our library offers a good selection of books about the Fijian culture, tropical flowers and Taveuni`s bird and sea life.
Maravu`s staff of 35 will know you by name and guide you into any activities on the Resort like horseback riding, mountain biking or kayaking. You can experience how the warmth of the sun matches the smiles of our staff and crystalline waters caress all cares away. Our activity manager offers professional guided tours around the island.
Paradise is waiting to comfort you may it be finest dining with one of Fiji's best wine list, world class diving in the Somosomo Strait, tropical beaches with huge rain trees and palm trees swaying in the breeze, spectacular waterfalls and the famous volcano lake.
Indulge yourself listening to the birds singing and the beautiful Fijian language. Refresh your senses by smelling pure, clean air, taste the pureness of food right from the sea and our organic gardens.
Maravu is a secluded tropical playground for you to relax around the pool with its own waterfall, enjoy the hilltop sunset gardens, discover the underwater world snorkelling in crystal clear waters or -- simply do nothing at all.
Every week we invite our guests to a Fijian Meke (traditional dances) and Lovo Feast where the speciality food is cooked in an underground oven.
After the sunset, you may want to join in with the Maravu Band Boys, sitting around the kava bowl, sharing the ceremonial drink, made from pepper root and serenading beautiful Fijian melodies.

Wedding Facilities:
Maravu Plantation Resort is the ideal location for a wedding. The ceremony can be held on the beach, in the gardens, by the pool or at the sunset viewing area with panoramic views of the ocean and outer islands. Maravu caters for a traditional Fijian wedding with full Fijian costume and Fijian magiti (feast) or a traditional European wedding with a simple or full mass. And if you like your ceremony takes place in the jungle beside a tropical waterfall or in an exotic village.
Since summer 2002 Maravu offers some of the most exotic wedding packages in the South Pacific. From a more simple Maravu Package over a Jungle or Village Package to a Deluxe Package, with all included what you dream about being a tropical and exotic wedding. The non-plus-ultra is Maravu's Grand Fijian Deluxe Package, probably the most luxurious, but for sure the most exotic wedding package you can imagine.
See yourself being brought on a bamboo raft across the deep blue ocean with purple corals and on a throne under palm trees and ferns to the place of your ceremony....in the gardens of Maravu or beside a tropical waterfall.

They call it Fiji's Forgotten North but once you've been there, you'll find it unforgettable.
