The private island resort COMO Laucala Island is an extraordinary natural paradise in the Fiji Islands that redefines the concept of luxury. With only 25 idyllic villas, it offers a rare combination of space, time, and tranquility against the magnificent backdrop of the South Pacific. The eleven-kilometer-long island features golden beaches, tropical rainforest, volcanoes, mangroves, coconut plantations, and a sustainable organic farm. Thanks to the unique landscape, there are almost no limits to your thirst for adventure: fill your days with horseback riding on the beach, hiking, dolphin watching, sailing, and snorkeling excursions.
Beaches, rainforests, mountains, reefs... There is so much to explore. Go horseback riding on the beach, take a mountain bike tour, or enjoy an idyllic hike through the island's natural surroundings. Water fun is also guaranteed, ranging from surfing, jet skiing, and kayaking to excursions on a catamaran, a traditional sailboat from the 1970s, or a luxury yacht. You might even spot wild dolphins along the way. Relaxation is provided by the dreamlike COMO Shambhala Retreat, where earth, crystals, and stones from the island, native flowers and herbs, and home-grown fruits are used, among other things. The kids' club organizes fun and educational outdoor and indoor activities from morning to night.
Choose from 25 dream residences located either on the beach, on a hillside, in the middle of the jungle, or on a turquoise blue lagoon. Each villa is a self-contained world made of Fijian wood, straw, and palm trees. The paradisiacal nature is reflected in the interior design of the houses. Look forward to natural materials, playful shapes and textures, as well as naturally shaped pools, large sun decks, and semi-open exotic bathrooms. At the Plantation Residence, you have your own piece of beach at your disposal, while the Wai Residence is perched directly above the turquoise blue ocean and offers its own boat mooring.
Three restaurants and a bar will take care of your culinary needs. The Plantation House is the best choice for daily changing dishes, depending on the catch of the day, and specialty wines in a magnificent plantation-style setting. In the Pan-Asian-inspired Seagrass Lounge and the restaurant overlooking the treetops, you can enjoy fresh seafood and excellent grilled Wagyu beef. Sundowners and light snacks are available in the Rock Lounge with sea views, while the Beach Bar impresses with its innovative, interwoven architecture and serves fresh fish and tropical cocktails under golden lantern lighting.
There is space galore at the idyllic COMO Laucala Island, a small but exquisite piece of heavenly Fiji. The surrounding tropical rainforests, blue lagoons, mangroves, coconut plantations, and volcanoes served as inspiration for the 25 residences. Each villa was built in the style of a traditional "bure," a Fijian wooden and straw hut, and lovingly furnished and decorated with local materials. Free-flowing lines and soft curves seem to pay homage to the sea. Regardless of their location, all villas feature a private pool, an exotic outdoor bath, a sun deck, a light-filled lounge, and soothing interior décor in shades of blue, green, and cream.
