"Today marks a major step forward in our island nation's close relationship with Royal Caribbean and one that will support sustainable growth for future generations," he said. "The Ni-Vanuatu people look forward to welcoming Royal Caribbean guests from around the world to enjoy extraordinary adventures and relaxation during their Perfect Day at Lelepa."

According to Royal Caribbean, Perfect Day will look and feel distinct from Royal Caribbean's other island experience,Perfect Day at CocoCay, because "our guests around the world all have different definitions for their perfect day and all of them are right. Our designers and nature have created the ideal South Pacific experience and we expect the results will be stunning."

The island is expected to open sometime in 2022.
