Their story

We met in a bar and it was love at first sight!!
Oh wait that’s the lie we said we would tell if it all worked out haha

We met on POF (Plenty OF Fish) eeeewwwwwww gross!!

I was looking for Mr Right and he was looking for a visa wife!! It was true love!!

Our first date nearly didn’t happen. He was severely hung over and I was supposed be having a girls night to celebrate Alana’s birthday. We met for drinks at Pocket Bar in Surry Hills. He will tell you he bought me numerous drinks and bled him dry. I maintain that I paid for some drinks but not all as lets face it I’m old fashioned that way. We chatted for a while and it was a nice date but it wasn’t love at first sight!!

We caught up a few weeks later and went ten pin bowling. We ordered cocktails that were meant to be shared but instead had one each and went on to have a bender. So we pub crawled our way through Sydney and danced all night. Needless to say we were both pretty unwell the next day. He spent the day looking after me despite being stupidly hungover himself and this is what sealed the deal. We spent the rest of the weekend together and pretty much every weekend since.

I wanted someone to love and cherish me and he did that from pretty much the beginning. He still wanted a visa wife lol so the rest is history. I think he got more than he bargained for tbh!!

Location

Overlooking Viti Levu’s idyllic Coral Coast on one side and its own private beach and lagoon on the other, the resort offers an authentic and private Fiji island experience. Yet with road access across the water to the mainland, your warm Fijian greeting is an easy hour’s drive from the main airport.
Once you’ve checked in, you’ll be spoilt for choice at the beautifully renovated resort. Whether you’re seeking an exclusive, adults-only experience, or one to keep the whole family occupied, you’ll find something for every moment and mood. With 3 pools, the coral reef, and a private sandy beach on a deep lagoon that’s swimmable any time of day, there’s a place to dip your toes right across the island.
Shangri-La’s trump card is its abundance of dining options, all sourcing the fresh and quality produce in Fiji. With 5 new dining concepts and three bars, all on the waterfront, this is a resort experience that doesn’t rest on the laurels of its location. With each meal comes the promise of something exciting and different, or the chance to re-visit the family favourites.
