  There are many places to visit and/or stay at, around Viti Levu, both on the Sun Coast (the north coast), and on the Coral Coast (the south coast). Korolevu is about half way between Nadi and the capital Suva. As I worked in the cruise staff on a Chandris ship, we always docked in Suva, however later as a tour manager we would of course fly into Nadi.
  
  Check with the "Blue Lagoon Cruises" for island hopping. They get great reviews here on VT. Here is their site:

  For great island services check out Tui Tai Expeditions.

  There are also a number of islands off the main island of Viti Levu, that offer great diving. They however are a bit limited as far as roaming for nightlife. Here are a few choices just for the sake of completeness.

  Do some research, with this information, and you will find more stuff as you go. Have a great time planning. Hope this helps somewhat....d:o)
  
  Hi Daniel and welcome to VT........d:o)
  
  Too broad a question. It depends entirely on what you are looking for, your ages and interests. If you just want to chill and relax, you may want to go directly to one of the offshore islands. Not my favorite way though. I am more of a main island guy.
  
  The Coral Coast around the Korolevu area is my choice. There is also a "hotel circle" on Denarau island which is an island in name only. Most all of the hotels can accommodate a toddler, so if you give me a few more details, I can better guide

  What I will do, - is to give you a compilation of responses I have put in this forum in the past. If you have questions, just come back.......d:o)

  Although it has been awhile since I have been in Fiji, I was a frequent visitor there in the past. The Fijians are the native Polynesians and fourth and fifth generation Indians (India), brought over long ago for work details. Expect a lot of Indian influence in the local culture. Nadi (pron: Nandi), is the main airport town and not really what you are looking for. However a short distance away is Denarau Island, actually an island just off the coast. The resorts however are on the mainland although they are identified with the island. There are many to choose from but my personal favorite is the Sofitel

  The Coral Coast was my favorite and Korolevu area a particular area that I enjoyed the most. If you rent a car, you will be able to visit a lot of the local culture, and probably should go as far as Suva, driving along the coast. Just off the Sigatoga National Park. Between Nadi and Korolevu proper, there are several resorts, that have excellent diving.
