THE Love Our Locals Fiji campaign is set to offer locals more options to choose from as they plan their Valentine’s Day experiences and explore Fiji.

According to Anaseini Bakaniceva, who heads the Love Our Locals Campaign team at Tourism Fiji, they are excited to kickstart the campaign in 2022.

“We’re thrilled with ongoing efforts by our industry members to meet demands from our domestic consumer base despite the busy period in December,” she said.

“Now that we’ve started the off-peak season, it’s an even more exciting time for our domestic market as tourism properties offer variety of specials for our locals to take advantage of.

“It’s also a proud moment for us as an industry as we get to showcase the beauty of our own home to our own people.”

It was stated that Serenity Island Resort, located in the Mamanuca Islands plans to have special deals for the month of February.

Resort Business Development manager Vinay Madhavan said they had a special running for Valentine’s Day which was a real bargain.

“We have the Love our Locals Month Of Love specials which gives the opportunity for couples to spend Valentine’s Day on a tropical island with meals and transfers included for $550 per night,” he said.

“We want to provide a surreal and unforgettable experience to our local guests, so we become their choice for staycations.

“Locals can even pay via Vodafone M-PAiSA as well as other payment options which we will be launching in the very near future.”

Tourism Fiji stated the resort had also introduced several new activities which included their private picnic lunches, private beach dinners, taralala nights/ bonfire dinners and sunset cruises and dinner that was currently for inhouse guests.

Cloud 9 sales and marketing head Lucia Zeeard said there were no additional words to describe the experience.

“We have some of the yummiest pizzas and cocktails but don’t take our word for it – try if for yourselves. Come without expectations. Step out of the ordinary and make a day of it!

Jump into the clear blue waters from our second level.”

Surf Dive & Ski Watersports company director Uri Kurop said at Surf, Dive & Ski Fiji they had been creating safe, fun and affordable water-based activities and experiences to get the most out of their resort stay.

He added there were family friendly and adrenaline pumping adventures for everyone to enjoy from Jet Ski safaris, surf school and tours, private boat charters, sailing adventures, fishing, parasailing, scuba diving, snorkelling, kayaking, SUPing, and a whole range of non-motorised water sport activities.
