If you're looking for a true Fijian experience away from the major tourist areas then Wananavu is where you want to be - come where you can spend your time relaxing in paradise with our luxury bure accommodation catering for everyone from honeymooners to families.

Wananavu is a truly idyllic resort offering an island paradise experience with mainland convenience. Just a 2 and ¼ hour journey from Nadi International Airport will have you being met with the biggest Bula in Fiji and tasting your first coconut before most other visitors have even reached their island destinations.

Wananavu boasts 34 deluxe Bures amongst the lush, tropical gardens, dotted along the beach front or perched on the hillside overlooking the azure Sailstone Reef and the Nananui Islands. Enjoy ocean views and beachfront access from our romantic honeymoon bures or simply relax surrounded by tropical gardens in our two bedroom villas. From the north facing Sunset Deck you have unparalleled views morning to night, perfect to while away the hours over a cocktail from the bar or a meal from the local produce focused restaurant.

Whether you join us to get below the surface on our world renown dive sites, say “I do” in a beachfront wedding ceremony, be pampered by expert hands in the Wai Spa or simply pick a hammock and doze through a book, Wananavu will seduce you into its rhythm and keep you far from the madding crowd.

Wananavu (Fijian for wonderful, fantastic) is, after all, as its name suggests... wananavu!
