Denarau Island, attached to Fiji's main island Viti Levu, is where most of the luxury hotel chains have their resorts. It's close to Nadi and the international airport, and life for the visitor is comfortable and easy, if somewhat expensive.
We stayed at the Hilton resort, and were well looked after.
We used the 'Dollar Bus' to get around, to places like the Denarau Marina and retail centre (with its affordable cafes and the like), to Nadi, with its main bus station and market, and to other resorts. As the name suggests, it cost one Fijian dollar for a ride. There's also the 'Bula Bus', which costs $7 for a day's worth of travel, but just between the resorts.
It's sometimes suggested you should stay at the cheaper places at the start of a trip, and graduate to the big splurge place at the end. We did it the other way round, but not to worry. It was nice while it lasted.
