The Fiji Edit - A Benson Bespoke Hotel Guide
Fiji is one of those rare destinations that lives up to every version of itself you've imagined. The water really is that colour. The pace really does slow that much. And the hospitality, genuinely, warmly, unhurriedly Fijian, is unlike anywhere else in the Pacific. What varies, dramatically, is where you lay your head. This is our current edit of the finest addresses across the islands, with each one chosen for a different kind of traveller, a different kind of trip.
The Hotels
Kokomo Private Island For when only your own island will do.
Kokomo sits within the Great Barrier Reef on a privately owned island in the Kadavu Group, remote, pristine, and utterly extraordinary. The reef diving here is among the best in the world, the villas and residences are designed with a quiet confidence, and the sense of true seclusion is something money rarely buys so completely. This is Fiji at its most elemental and its most refined, all at once. For families, for milestone trips, for the traveller who has stayed everywhere and wants somewhere that still surprises, Kokomo is the answer.
Nanuku For barefoot luxury with nothing left out.
Nanuku sits on the Coral Coast on Viti Levu's southern shore, a sprawling, beautifully considered estate of private beachfront bures and villas set among tropical gardens. The pace here is deeply restorative without ever feeling sparse; the food is excellent, the beach is long, and the service wraps around you without ever being intrusive. It is the kind of place families return to year after year, and where couples arrive for a week and wish they'd booked two.
Vomo For days that ask nothing of you.
A private island in the Mamanuca Group, Vomo does one thing and does it without fault, effortless, uncomplicated luxury in one of the most beautiful settings in the Pacific. The island is exclusively yours (and your fellow guests'). The reef is on your doorstep. The villas are open, airy, and thoughtfully designed. There are no decisions to make here beyond where to swim first. For those who believe a private island should feel exactly like this, Vomo delivers.
Six Senses Fiji For arriving depleted and leaving restored.
Set on Malolo Island in the Mamanucas, Six Senses brings its signature approach, wellness, sustainability, genuine intention, to one of Fiji's most beautiful island settings. The overwater and beachfront villas are stunning, but it's the programming that sets this apart: personalised wellness journeys, exceptional spa treatments, farm-to-table dining, and a philosophy that takes restoration seriously. Arrive with your nervous system frayed. Leave feeling entirely yourself again.
InterContinental Fiji For the classic Coral Coast experience, done well.
The InterContinental sits on Natadola Beach, consistently ranked among the finest beaches in the South Pacific, and delivers the polished, reliable experience you'd expect from the brand, elevated by its exceptional setting. Multiple pools, excellent dining, a full-service spa, and the kind of infrastructure that makes it ideal for families or first-time visitors to Fiji who want everything taken care of. The grande dame of the Coral Coast, and deservedly so.
LikuLiku Lagoon Resort For overwater bliss, adults only.
The only adults-only resort in Fiji, and all the better for it. LikuLiku's overwater bures on Malolo Island are genuinely special, private decks, direct lagoon access, and a stillness that feels almost sacred. The service is exceptionally attentive, the food is carefully prepared, and the overall experience has a intimacy that larger resorts simply cannot replicate. For honeymooners, for anniversaries, for any trip where the two of you need to be entirely present with one another, this is it.
