As with everything it depends on where you go. Denarau is expensive; elsewhere can be cheap. Last time we were there we bought a good curry and couple of Fiji bitters for three of us at an airport hotel for less than the price of one starter that my Aunt paid at Denarau!
$4 an hour babysitting is pretty cheap and is the norm on the islands. Food is cheap in some resorts (we stayed in
Octopus and the food on the food plan is cheap - but the resort has a mix of backpackers and honeymooners so needs to appeal to all).
Then again the place we stayed on honeymoon 5 years ago was US$1,000 a night so reasonably pricey!
As with everything do your research and ask before you make a decision!
