An exclusive adults-only retreat on an island in the Mamanucas, Likuliku Lagoon Resort is the perfect escape for couples.
Designed in traditional style to emulate an ancient Fijian village, it’s the first resort in the country to offer authentic overwater bures, set within a natural ocean lagoon and surrounded by a protected marine sanctuary.
With idyllic waters quite literally at your doorstep, enjoy a range of activities from stand-up paddle boarding, kayaking, sailing and windsurfing.
Complimentary snorkeling equipment is also available, as the islands of the Mamanucas are rich with coral reefs, tropical fish and other marine life you’ll want to see.
Away from the water, several walking trails take you through the lush flora and fauna of the island, and a village trip can be arranged to show you how Indigenous land owners live.
Likuliku Lagoon Resort is located on the island of Malolo in the Mamanuca group. Traveling internationally, Fiji Airways has regular flights landing at Nadi International Airport, where you can take a short transfer by air or water to get to the resort. South Sea Cruises Catamaran departs Denarau Marina three times daily, or if you prefer, you can book a seaplane or helicopter to have you there in 10 minutes.
As the resort operates in such a pristine and fragile ecosystem, Liluliku wholly supports sustainable tourism through various environmental initiatives. The resort is 100% Fijian owned and is an active member of the Mamanuca Environment Society, meaning they provide ongoing training and education to resort staff, guests and the village people in the preservation and caring of the environment.
From sleeping suspended over the water to napping nestled in a grove, Likuliku offers four types of accommodation: Overwater Bure, Deluxe Beachfront Bure, Beachfront Bure and the Garden Beachfront Bure. There are only ten of the foremost, an exclusive option where you can laze on the deck or luxuriate in a grand bathtub while absorbing pristine lagoon views.
The other three are all equally luxurious, and the water still stays near. Stay among the lush gardens and coconut trees or just a few steps from the sand. The 14 Beachfront Bures and three Garden Beachfont Bures have been appointed in the finest Fijian style, and the 18 Deluxe Beachfront Bures boast a split-level design with private plunge pool and outdoor shower.
Overwater Bure
Perched on the edge of the vibrant fringing reef in a natural, pristine lagoon and protected marine sanctuary, the 10 Overwater Bures feature traditional architecture and materials using natural elements unique to the region. Laze on your deck or luxuriate in your separate bathing pavilion with lagoon views from your grand bathtub.

Deluxe Beachfront Bure
There are only 18 of these private sanctuaries on the beachfront, each with their own personal plunge pool and private daybed retreat plus outdoor shower in a secluded courtyard surrounded by lush gardens. The split-level design optimizes the spectacular views over the lagoon and traditional designs, natural materials and unique, stylish pieces reflect the beauty and history of the South Pacific.
Beachfront Bure
The 14 Beachfront Bures feature a personal daybed retreat, outdoor shower with secluded courtyard, a spacious deck, traditional Fijian interiors and beautiful lagoon views. Laze on your deck or stroll along the beach and savor the beauty of Likuliku Lagoon.
Garden Beachfront Bure
The three Garden Beachfront Bures are only steps from the beach and lagoon. They're identical to the Beachfront Bures, except set a little further back amongst the lush gardens and coconut trees, with the island’s natural water-course in front.
