Coconut Grove Beachfront Cottages is a small, intimate resort located directly on the ocean and a private, white sand beach. Surrounded by mango trees and coconut palms, we have just three accommodations, thus assuring you a very private holiday. When we bought our slice of paradise we made a conscious decision to make sure we kept it just the way we would want it to be if we were here on vacation. It was important to us that we retain the solitude and simplicity of the island way of life, which is one reason why we have no disco and no cable t.v.

What we do have, however, is extraordinary diving and snorkeling, incredible nature walks, the greatest staff this side of the Pacific and sunrises that will take your breath away. We at Coconut Grove are devoted to this island, its people and its traditions. Come see why people say that Taveuni is one of the most magical places on our earth.

This is our newest bure and is located right down on the lower part of the property, closest to the beach. The cottage has windows all around, with views of the ocean from 3 sides.

From your queen size bed you can see banana trees, hibiscus and watch the sunrise over the 1st island.

When you return from your swim it is ten steps from the beach up to the attached hot water honeymoon shower. After you've enjoyed bathing in privacy outdoors, (there is nothing like it in the world!) there is a second door that brings you right into the cottage. Now this is the way to bathe in the tropics!

At night when you close your eyes you will hear the sound of the waves on the shore outside your windows. If you like, you can tiptoe down to the sand for a dip under the stars. Otherwise, the hammock is a great place to relax and see the clearest night sky you've ever seen. Ever.

From every window are views of the beach and the garden, with mango trees and butterfly orchids in abundance outside.

Large windows allow the warm tropical breeze to carry the scent of flowers into your room.

The Mango Bure has a queen size bed and overhead fan. There is also a single bed under the front windows on which you can read your book, and a small fridge nearby for your cold drinks. It is a spacious room with high ceilings, and the walls are covered in indigenous reeds that give the room a real island feeling. There is a large verandah in the front with two oversized chaise lounges. It is the perfect spot to spend the late afternoon and watch the colors of the sky change over the ocean as the sun sets.

Our island is famous for the kula birds, which are like small parrots. And the best seats in the house at sundown are on the verandah of the Mango Bure. You will see them flitting through the air at sundown, flying in packs from coconut tree to tree.

From the bathroom you step outdoors to the attached hot water "honeymoon shower". It was built from lava rocks we found down the island and has a banana tree cascading over the rock wall. Talk about a special place to bathe! You haven't lived until you have showered here, outdoors, in total privacy looking out at the sea.
