Island Holiday on a Budget but with a One Year Old

Hi all,

I am desperate for an island holiday, not fussy on location just needs to be suitable for two adults and a one year old.

Would love your recommendations on where to travel to and how to get value for monry. Packages would be amazing as that is easier, or specific resort recommendations or accommodation deals would be great.

Thanks heaps

    That's a bit too vague to enable anyone to provide a meaningful answer.

    What is your budget?
    How long do you want to be away for?
    What time of year?

    In general, and depending on when you want to go, Fiji can be pretty cheap.

    Resorts vary massively in prices - especially if you are willing to get on a shuttle for a 60 / 90 / 120 minute drive from the airport.

    Outside of school holidays will usually be much cheaper too - sounds like you are currently free in that respect, so make the most of it. You won't understand the freedom you have with a baby / toddler, compared to having school-aged kids yet, but you'll look back in a few years, and realise how trivially easy it is to travel with only one (very young) child between two adults.

    Perhaps walk into two or three travel agents and ask what they have that is good value / on sale. You could try calling or doing it electronically, but walking in seems to get much better deals as they have a much better chance of getting your booking, so they'll try harder for you.

  • Agree with Fiji. Likuri island is nice and child friendly. My wife and I went with our 3 year old and 3 month old. Very lovely staff. All food included. It’s a taxi then boat from Nadi airport, and the resort will help you organise transfers.
