Twikkii Island ( /tˈwɪki ˈaɪlənd/) is a Tropical-themed sub-neighborhood that appears in The Sims 2: Bon Voyage as a vacation destination. Twikkii Island is a romantic destination with beautiful scenery. It is the largest of the three vacation destinations. There are many community lots here, mainly beach community lots as well as beach hotels, and also two ancient ruins. The Neighborhood terrain is best for placing Beach Lots, although terrains in Belladonna Cove and Desiderata Valley also have special roads to place Beach Lots. The locals are usually charismatic, playful, and outgoing. Visiting this island gives a slight +2 attraction point to Sims.

Trivia[]
- Twikkii Island is most likely based on Hawaii as both have tropical beaches and resorts as well as forests and similar delicacies as seen in Bon Voyage. As well as this, some of the townies names as well as the mayors name sound like tradition Hawaiian names. Another thing to note is that the dance Sims can learn is the hula, which was developed in the Hawaiian islands by Polynesians.
- If the player presses the "Tab" button and moves the camera over to the other side of the mountain, a hidden road can be seen. There is nothing on it, except it's surrounded by trees and rocks. It's similar in length to the one in Belladonna Cove. That's actually where the Mysterious Hut is located, but the lot is invisible, and if the camera is modified to allow viewing of the edges of the neighborhood, the spot cannot be clicked on.
- The sea bed of this terrain is different from any other terrain; when looking at the sea, it is light blue with dark blue patches, giving the sea a more "natural" look. The patches are probably algae or something similar. This is actually a neighborhood deco item called "Twikki [sic] Ocean Floor" placed in the upper right corner of the world, closest to South End Beach. The cube representing it is only visible if camera hacks are used and the neighborhood deco tab is selected. Its height and shape are tailored to be placed in this specific spot in Twikkii Island, similar to the "distant terrain" objects in The Sims 3. This means that it cannot be used effectively on other terrain templates.
- If Bon Voyage is not installed, but a later expansion pack is, the terrain for Twikkii Island is available as a terrain template.
- Twikkii Island was named "Best Vacation Spot" in the travel magazine, Global Vacationer Weekly. The announcement appeared in the newspaper in The Sims 3.
Twikkii Island Named Best Vacation Spot
The #1 best-selling weekly travel magazine for people who read about travel weekly, Global Vacationer Weekly, named Twikkii Island the best tropical getaway in the world. "You know the island is a special place when even our sunburns are fun," said island President Aikane Hiwalani. "Even our crabs are great. They tickle instead of pinch!" Twikkii Island expects a 34% increase in travellers this summer.
