Tavenui Real Estate “Heaven on Earth”
LOMALAGI is
the Fijian expression for heaven and Taveuni is that place in
Fiji that many overseas holiday homeowners and real estate
investors consider “their heaven on earth”.
Taveuni, the
"Garden Isle," was listed by Islands magazine as one of the top
20 islands to live on in the world.
The Garden
Island of Fiji is naturally beautiful both above and below water
and the community is just as alive with many developed home
sites and new real estate projects being carried out.
The Seidmans
are looking to join that lucky group with a luxury hilltop villa
scheduled for construction on the island.
The Seidmans
have been travelling to the island for decades for the unspoiled
environment and their passion for scuba diving and nature.
The couple
selected PBS Homes to build their new luxury ocean view villa
after careful consideration of real estate conditions and
building options in Fiji.
The decision
to engage PBS Homes was based on a clear history of quality
construction and professional management.
PBS Homes
offers a unique home-building experience through a focus on
client management and customer service. This approach to
home-building sets PBS Homes apart from its competition.
PBS Homes
general manager Gary Semaan said this presented a unique
opportunity for PBS Homes which offers a complete building
solution at the highest levels of quality for their clients.
The hilltop
tropical villa will feature an architecturally-designed floor
plan capturing elevated ocean views and showcasing Fiji's
premier natural and sustainable hardwoods including mahogany,
vesi and pine.

Taveuni
Real Estate Fiji
The island of
Taveuni offers many real estate opportunities. The island is
10.5 kilometers wide and 42 kilometers long, is the top of an
elongated shield volcano which erupted from a
northeast-southwest trending rift on the ocean floor. About 150
volcanic cones dot the island, including Uluigalau Fiji's second
highest peak at 1,241 meters, and Des Vœux Peak, next in height
at 1,195 meters..
Lake Tagimaucia
is one of Taveuni's most famous tourist attractions. It occupies
a volcanic crater at an altitude of 800 meters, and is the
habitat the rare tagimaucia flower. Fiji's most famous
waterfalls, the Bouma Falls, are also on the island, located in
the Bouma National Heritage Park.
As much as 10
metres of rain falls annually on the eastern side of the island,
but the western side is sheltered from the southeast trade winds
by the ridge that runs the length of the island – and this is a
sought after area of the Island for both real estate investors
and home owners.
South of Vuna
village and the lagoon, jet black rocks litter an area known as
the South Cape where Taveuni's last volcanic eruption spilled
into the sea around 500 years ago. The highlight of the region
is the Matamaiqi blowhole with geysers created by trade winds
crashing into the volcanic rocks.
About 20 minutes
by foot from the town of Waiyevo is the Waitavala Waterslide.
This entirely natural streambed chute plummets for about 50
meters down the lush hillside and is a favorite haunt for local
children and brave tourists.
World Premier
Diving & Surfing
Besides its
natural beauty – many real estate investors and home owners are
drawn to Taveuni for snorkeling and diving. Many of Taveuni's
best known attractions lie underwater.
There are three
major, distinct diving areas around the island.

To the north of
Taveuni lie in close proximity the islands of Qamea and Matagi
with their surrounding reef systems.
The Rainbow Reef
and Vuna Reef are famous for diving and snorkeling,
respectively. The Rainbow Reef, on the western side in the
narrow Somosomo Strait between Taveuni and Vanua Levu, is known
as one of the world's premier soft coral dive areas.
The
horseshoe-shaped Vuna Lagoon, near the southern end of the
island, is much appreciated among divers for the opportunity to
see larger pelagic and schooling fish species on the exposed
southern side of the reef, whereas the sheltered western parts
provide pristine soft and hard coral gardens.
