but I agree that food was quite expensive. We rented a house on Taveuni that was gorgeous and a truly wonderful chef came over and cooked for us several times - four stunning courses plus brioche or bread rolls for $25 per head (Fijian dollars, so rather less Aust).
Also there are great surf breaks in Fiji - and the most wonderful nannies. I won't say how cheap they were because it would sound like I was gloating at the expense of people who don't make much. But there is not the abundance of restaurants that there is in Bali. I would say the swimming is much much better though. And my info is very recent - we only got back last Sunday. I'm not dissing Bali - but there are lots of other great places to experience!
