The new Nanuku Resort & Spa has opened in what is known as the ‘Adventure Capital of Fiji’ – near to Pacific Harbour on Viti Levu island – offering guests a range of high-octane activities.
The thrills and spills include shark dives in the Beqa Lagoon, surfing at the legendary Frigates Pass, ziplining through lush rainforest canopies and an off-road cave safari where you wade by lantern light through Fiji’s largest cave system.
Owned by American investment company Bixby Bridge Capital, the US$25m (€18m, £15m) Nanuku Resort & Spa spans 25 acres across a single cove, although the total land plot totals 500 acres. Nanuku Ocean Estates residencies are up for sale and occupy another 25 acres of this in a separate cove, while future residential development is in the early planning stages according to national media. A third cove project is also said to be in the pipeline, but the rest of the land is predicted to remain largely undeveloped.
In the resort's main cove, the Lomana Spa & Wellness Centre features two indoor treatment rooms for both couples’ or individual therapies and three outdoor treatment bures (wood and straw cabins). The centre also includes an outdoor relaxation area, a secluded spa bath, tropical garden and hair salon. The outdoor decking area is used for manicure and pedicures. There is also a fitness centre located on the floor above the spa.
The spa, which is run in-house by Nanuku Resort & Spa, uses products from the Pure Fiji range which blend pure coconut oil and flower extracts to moisturise both skin and hair.
“Some guests need a jump-start into a fitness and health routine – some because they’ve hit a plateau and they need a restart – but some don’t want to exercise so they can indulge in relaxation with a salon or spa treatment,” Karen Taylor, resort manager told Spa Opportunities. Taylor also was in charge of the design concept for the resort.
“For those who want to be active, our personal trainers are on hand to tailor individual fitness programmes or guests can participate in the many resort activities from bike riding, stand-up paddle boarding, kayaking to medicine and food trail walks,” Taylor added.
