Nestled in the middle of the South Pacific Ocean and known as one of the friendliest places in the world, Fiji is the tropical paradise dreams are made of.
333 magnificent islands to choose from blessed with white sandy beaches, pristine oceans and luscious rain forest offering an abundance of stunning resorts, activities, off the beaten track adventures and world class golf courses with astounding views of glistening lagoons and dramatic landscapes.
One of a triplet of small islands that lie to the east of Thurston Point on the island of Taveuni, Laucala (pronounced Lathala), is a privately owned tropical paradise of 1.400 hectares home to one of the world’s most exclusive private resorts.
Loved by the wealthy and famous for its unparalleled privacy, discreet and flawless service and its nature-inspired design, the resort sits on the island’s northern coast and covers just 4.5 square kilometres, which means that the vast majority of the land is an unspoiled wilderness of jungle and coconut plantations, where you’ll find some of the archipelago’s rarest birds and animals.
Boasting idyllic ocean and lush rain-forest views, the 25 Fijian-styled villas are dotted amid coconut plantations, beside deserted beaches or perched atop the island’s volcanic mountains, overlooking fertile coral reefs and endless jungle.
Laucala is almost totally self-sufficient in food. Whether dining by design in a private dining location or at one of the five restaurants and bars that offer everything from beach-side barbeques to fine dining, the food is made only from organic and natural ingredients that can be found in nature. Laucala has tapped into the island’s lush natural bounty, establishing a number of organic farms and gardens producing fruit, vegetables, herbs and meat for the resort restaurants as well as flowers and spices for the spa.
From relaxing to adventurous, a wide variety of water sports and exhilarating land activities are at your fingertips. An island highlight is the 18-hole championship golf course, thoughtfully designed by David McLay Kidd with spectacular greens and fairways overlooking the Pacific Ocean.
At Laucala you can arrive and leave any time you like, there is no preset check-in and check-out time. Rates are all-inclusive and cover meals; house wines, champagne and spirits; diving; water sports and submarine ride; horse riding; golf, including lessons; laundry and dry cleaning. And much, much more.
