If you’re dreaming of a Christmas that’s more about sunshine than snow, more about palm trees than pine trees, then Fiji’s Plantation Island Resort should be at the top of your list. From creative Christmas trees made from driftwood and coconuts to beachside festivities and a tropical Santa, this resort has taken holiday magic to a whole new level. Here’s why spending Christmas at Plantation Island Resort is a no-brainer for families:

And, of course, a cozy Christmas movie screening to wind down the night before the big day.
- Santa Swaps Snow for Sand
Santa doesn’t need snow when he’s got Fiji’s stunning beaches! This year, he’ll be arriving in true island style, swapping his sleigh for a boat and bringing holiday cheer to every guest.
