Honeymoon plans that involve choosing between seve Honeymoon plans that involve choosing between seven pools… we’re listening. At @crowneplazafiji, it’s less about picking the “best” one and more about the vibe you want. Maybe it’s a slow morning float with nowhere to be, or a sun-soaked afternoon that turns into one more swim before dinner. Either way, there’s always another pool calling your name! Seven to choose from… where are you starting? [Video description: Short clips of a different pools at Crowne Plaza Fiji flash by in quick succession as text reads “‘Honey, let’s just relax by the pool today…’ Honeymooning at Crowne Plaza Fiji Nadi Bay means having seven pools to choose from!
