Lomani Fiji
Taveuni
The
meaning of Lomani is simply In Love
in Fijian. We created Lomani for others to enjoy our initial
Fijian experience.
We
discovered this piece of paradise whilst on our honeymoon
in 2006. We enjoyed a few days at Anthony Robbins Resort Namale
on Vanua Levu (the island seen across the Somosomo Straits
from Lomani). We then travelled to Taveuni to enjoy a private
property in contrast to a resort.
It
was here that we discovered the opportunity to create Lomani.
We
have styled Lomani on what we would look for in a private
property, that is privacy, luxury, ambience, space and charm.
Furthermore, achieving the balance between enjoying a unique
natural experience and yet not wanting for anything at all.
Our
dream was created with you in mind.
You
will find Lomani truly is a unique romantic paradise.
We
hope you enjoy an enchanting and memorable stay at Lomani.
Facilities
Lomani is set on two acres of beautiful gardens and is a luxurious
cottage offering one bedroom with a four poster king size
bed (covered by a mosquito net). Leading from the bedroom
is a bathroom, toilet and outdoor double headed
stone shower.
The
bedroom also leads on to a living area with all modern conveniences,
ie TV, DVD, stereo and a range of games, books, DVD movies
and music.
Both
the bedroom and living area lead onto a spacious deck which
extends along the front of the cottage and offers magnificent
views out across the Somosomo Straits.
There
is a large kitchen which provides views over the Somosomo
Straits to the east and south east and opens up onto the deck
overlooking the infinity edge pool. The kitchen has a dining
area and is fully equipped with all cooking and eating utensils
including rice cooker, wok, blender, fruit juice maker and
BBQ on the deck.
The
bedroom, kitchen and living room all have ceiling fans and
multiple louvred windows and louvred doors all of which have
fly wire cover.
The
cottage is furnished in traditional locally made Fijian furniture.
The
swimming pool is 3 x 4 mts and is at the corner of the deck
with infinity edges overlooking the water.
All
linen and towels are provided.
There
is a second bathroom at the rear of the kitchen which also
has a washing machine for your use during your stay.
There
is also a outdoor pergolah area at the rear of the living
room.
The
cottage is solely powered by solar power including the pool

There
are three major, distinct diving areas around the island.
To the north of Taveuni lie in close proximity the islands
of Qamea and Matagi with their surrounding reef systems. The
Rainbow Reef and Vuna Reef are famous for diving and snorkeling,
respectively. The Rainbow Reef, on the western side in the
narrow strait between Taveuni and Vanua Levu (ie in front
of Lomani!), are known as one of the world's premier soft
coral dive areas. The horseshoe shaped Vuna Lagoon, near the
southern end of the island, is much appreciated among divers
for the opportunity to see larger pelagic and schooling fish
species on the exposed southern side of the reef, whereas
the sheltered western parts provide pristine soft and hard
coral gardens.
Some of the more popular dives at the Rainbow Reef in front
of Lomani include the Great White Wall and Little White Wall,
named for their luminescent white coral; Rainbows End, with
an incredible gardens of multi-colored soft corals; and 3
Bommies, made up of three giant coral towers or "bommies"
that rise up from
the sea floor to within 12 meters of the surface.
As you would expect, there are a number of certified dive
operators on Taveuni catering to beginners through experienced
professionals.
