One of the best resorts in the world, Laucala Island is a spectacular Garden of Eden of lush green mountains surrounded by perfect white sand beaches. And it is home to only 25 villas tucked on one section of the otherwise uninhabited private island, accessed by the Resort’s own private jet.

Each of the exclusive 25 villas epitomizes the latest in luxury yet the architects managed to intertwine a traditional Fijian feel with free-flowing shapes, high thatched roofs and local materials like coconut husk, palm leaves and local timber.

The one-, two- or three-bedroom villas, each featuring a private pool suit couples or families, and guests can also choose from a number of idyllic settings. All villas come with a buggy for cruising around the island.

Laucala offers an impressive array of activities. All the usual water sports are on offer as well as horseback riding, scuba, golf at the 18-hole championship golf course, tennis, snorkeling, surfing and fishing. Guests can even explore under the sea in a submarine.

The island’s farm-to-table dining is exceptional. Guests are able to enjoy superb feasts for breakfast, lunch and dinner either in the villa or in the restaurants. A highlight is the exquisite seven-course degustation menu in Plantation House. All food, house wines, champagnes and spirits as well as all water sports, boat trips, water skiing and diving in the inner reef are part of your all-inclusive stay.
