The Fiji government has welcomed Kerzner International’s plans to develop a One&Only resort and residences in the west of the country on Nacula Island, in the Yasawa Islands.
Kerzner International is developing the resort in partnership with the Fijian health insurer and institutional investor BSP Life. BSP Life is a subsidiary of BSP Financial Group, which is focused on fostering growth across the South Pacific.
The property, which will range across 127 acres of untouched land, is part of Kerzner International’s plan for strategic growth in the Asia-Pacific region.
The project is slated to open in 2029, with a 40-key hotel, 20 private residences, the One&Only brand’s signature ClubOne wellness centre and six dining venues.
Manoa Kamikamica, Fiji’s deputy prime minister and minister for trade cooperatives, small and medium enterprises and communications, said the project represents a transformational moment for the country’s tourism sector: “This is a big win for Fiji. Having a global brand like Kerzner International choose to invest here shows clear trust in our economy and our future.
“It’s a positive sign that Fiji is ready to welcome world-class developments as well as international projects,” Kamikamica added. “This development is key for the tourism sector and it also builds investor confidence and creates opportunities for more future investments that will help grow our economy.
“The Ministry congratulates Kerzner International and BSP Life on this landmark announcement. The One&Only resort represents a major leap forward for Fiji’s tourism sector and signals strong investor confidence in our economy. This development will bring lasting benefits to our people, create new jobs, and position Fiji as a premier destination for luxury travel and investment.”
Philippe Zuber, CEO of Kerzner International, said on Linkedin: “The One&Only Resort and private homes in Fiji will be a destination that restores, uplifts and connects; a place where the rhythms of the land and sea inspire everything from al fresco living to the immersive wellness experiences at our ClubOne.
“In the world of wellness travel, it is rare to find a place that offers both elemental simplicity and emotional depth,” he added. “Fiji gives us that rarest of gifts: space to breathe, to reflect, and to heal.”
