"The Villages" of Christmas Island

This new fishing lodge was opened on the island in June of 2006.

Located on pristine white sand Discovery Beach, it overlooks the ever changing aqua waters of the atoll’s lagoon. It’s location puts it only a short 5 - 10 minute skiff ride to several large shallow easily waded flats, teeming with bonefish, some in double-digit sizes.

“The Villages”, features 6 air-conditioned double twin-bed bungalows, comfortably accommodates up to 12 anglers at a time. There is a private bathroom in each unit and a porch facing Discovery Beach and lagoon. A “maneaba”, a local name for the anglers gathering center, lies in the heart of the complex, featuring a comfortable lounge and dining area, all with elegant South Seas atmosphere. Locally flavored fish, meats and fowl are prepared by an experienced local chef and served by his trained staff.

The biggest advantage at The Villages is that your boat meets you just a few steps from your bungalow. Anglers are transported to the fishing in versatile South Pacific style, sea-worthy skiffs to the many productive bonefish flats and to the reef drop-offs for exciting light tackle tunas, travelly, wahoo, rainbow runners and bonito. We have eliminated the use of pick-up trucks, except for a few choice, ocean-side and shoreline flats, so that anglers are able to maximize their valuable fishing time. All of the guides are experienced and knowledgeable in all types of fishing. They have been previously employed by other island facilities and guided the area flats and outside reef waters for years.
