Castaway Dining
Your day starts with a Castaway buffet breakfast including Fiji's tropical fruits and juices, cereals, a selection of hot dishes and accompaniments including bacon, sausages, eggs any style, fresh baked croissants, hotcakes and Danish pastries, tea selection and fresh brewed coffee. Our all day casual dining menu features light snacks and meals throughout the day to early evening.
At night we dine alfresco under a canopy of Castaway stars overlooking the clear waters of the Pacific. Our a la carte menu features the freshest Fijian seafood and crustaceans, with prime grade beef, poultry and local Fijian specialties together with fresh vegetables, crisp salads and crusty home baked breads - complemented by a hand selected wine list. Additionally our gourmet wood fired pizzas available in the Sundowner Bar are not to be missed.
MEAL PLAN: Our Castaway Island meal plan offers breakfast, lunch and dinner with unrestricted choice from all our menus including theme nights, at a daily set price. The meal plan may be purchased on the island and is flexible recognizing various arrival and departure times. The meal plan does not include alcoholic beverages, soft drinks and specialty coffees.
All meals are served at our Water's Edge Restaurant or the Sundowner Bar.
Wednesday Fijian Feast and Meke
Our traditional Fijian Feast is served every Wednesday evening. You will want to witness the lighting of the fire, built over dry river stones in the fire pit. Once the stones are white hot this traditional earth oven, or Lovo, is ready to receive seafood, meats and root crop vegetables prepared by first wrapping in banana leaves and palm fronds. The food parcels are then placed on those stones and covered whilst cooking. This unique method delivers truly delicious food for our buffet feast with a sensational island flavour.
Your Castaway family will perform a traditional Meke of Fijian songs and action dances at 6:30 pm followed by the Fijian Feast at 7:00 pm. Don't forget...'no sulu, no dinner!
Saturday Beach BBQ
Castaway's barbecue is featured every Saturday from 7:00 pm. Enjoy chargrilled steaks, chicken and fish Fiji style with crisp salads, homemade pastas, curries, local Fijian vegetables and more. Join in the beach party with the Castaway Beach Boys - fun and games for all to enjoy.
Resort Manager's Cocktail Party
Come and meet our resort management team every Wednesday night from 6:00 pm to 7:00 pm, poolside or at the Main Bar Terrace. Enjoy a glass or two of our 'Liquid Sunshine' whilst taking in the setting sun and enjoying the company of new friends.
