“I sincerely believe the best years of tourism are ahead of us, and that’s just for a few key reasons. First of all, let’s face it. We live in the famous safe destination here in Fiji, and secondly, we all know that there was a huge announcement by Fiji Airways with its actual increasing capacities, and that will also enable us hoteliers to capitalize on that initiative of Fiji Airways.”
He says the Vatu Talei project aims to be a game-changer in Fiji’s hospitality industry, offering visitors a unique blend of luxury, culture, and adventure.
