SIX SENSES FIJI
Malolo Island, Mamanuca Islands, Fiji
Our Thoughts on Six Senses Fiji
For some years now, as we have travelled to and from the various island resorts in Fiji’s Mamanuca Islands while checking out the various resorts we offer, we have watched a big development happening on the western coast of Malolo Island to the south of Malolo Island Resort and Tropica Island Resort & Spa. This development, Six Senses Fiji, is now open and far enough advanced for us to bring to you the wonderful new resort which has morphed out of the tropical bush at this remarkable location. In line with Fiji’s general move to develop more up-market properties, Six Senses Fiji, has added another dimension to Fiji’s top-end tourist properties.
“Six Senses” is a growing brand - a home for very special resorts. Six Senses offer resorts in many incredible locations in Vietnam, Turkey, Thailand, Singapore, Seychelles, Portugal, Oman, Maldives, Bali, France, Qing Chen Mountains China and Bhutan. Each one is a real gem and now Fiji joins this august company. To give you an indication of what “Six Senses” stands for and delivers to guests, we quote:
“A refreshing reinterpretation of hospitalityWhat’s the story of Six Senses? It’s about natural beauty that stops you in your tracks. Far flung, yet accessible locations. A level of service that doesn’t just do the right thing, but that does it well, and with great care so you feel the difference. A sense of community with sustainability at its heart.
Of course, it’s one thing to say these things, but we actually weave them seamlessly into the local fabric of every Six Senses destination. Six Senses resorts are set in incredible and exquisite locations, whether a virgin territory or adjacent to an UNESCO World Heritage & Natural Cultural site. We believe we can design and build sublime experiences without diminishing the natural world. Each of our properties has a distinctive and diverse personality that makes use of the natural land topography.”
To give you a feeling for Six Senses Fiji, we suggest you read on, as we have gone to some effort to describe the services and accommodation styles available for this beautiful new resort.
The resort is new, and there are ongoing construction works as new Residences are added under phase two of the development. Stage One includes the Resort Villas and Suites and most of the Residences on the beach level, so the on-going construction of the additional Residences does not impinge on guest enjoyment. Six Senses Fiji advise as follows:
Ongoing Construction Works
“A number of our beautiful residences are under construction and you may see some work underway during your stay. Please be assured that you can still enjoy all resort facilities and services, while phase two of our development is under way.”

What Six Senses Fiji Say About Themselves
"A refreshing new view of the legendary South Pacific
Welcome
Six Senses Fiji is located on tropical Malolo Island, part of the stunning Mamanuca Islands archipelago and is ideally located just 15.5 miles (25 kilometres) from Nadi International Airport. The resort features 24 spacious private pool villas plus an additional inventory of residences, offering from two to five bedrooms. The island is surrounded with crystal clear waters and white sand beaches.
With several food and beverage outlets serving delicious, locally inspired dishes, watersports including sailing and surfing, Six Senses Spa with a yoga pavilion and Alchemy Bar and a weekly activity schedule taking you on out-of-the-ordinary experiences, there is something for everyone at Six Senses Fiji.
Dining
The ethos at Six Senses Fiji is to bring an enhanced quality of cuisine to the South Pacific. Striving to create memories not just meals guests are offered a contemporary take on traditional Fijian and international dishes which ensure to ignite your taste buds and leave you wanting more. Restaurants use fresh organic, locally produced and sourced ingredients together with many from the resort’s herb garden and farm.
With breakfast included in room rates, take your pick from a choice of meal plans available in all three of our dining venues. On top of this the resort boasts a gourmet delicatessen and out-of-the-ordinary food and beverage experiences including private in-residence dining.
Sustainability
Consistent with the commitment of the group, Six Senses Fiji develops sustainability within the resort and invites guests to share the responsibility to offset their carbon footprint. There are programs in place to conserve energy, and wherever possible packaging is kept to an absolute minimum or is re-usable.
Six Senses Fiji has one of the largest off-grid solar installations using Tesla Battery packs in the Southern Hemisphere. The resort collects rainwater, uses worm-based septic tanks and also has its own reverse osmosis plant and water refinery, producing high quality drinking water without the use of plastic bottles. A herb, fruit and vegetable garden supports the ultimate aim of self-sustained food and beverages on the island, drastically reducing the environmental footprint.
Six Senses Fiji is found on one of the most dramatically beautiful isles in the 333-island nation with consistently warm tropical weather making the resort an ideal year-round destination. The 120-acre (48.5-hectare) site encompasses an expansive and beautiful bay surrounded by lush, native vegetation and highlighted by a spectacular white sandy beach for guests. Six Senses Fiji is anchored with two marinas. The resort and residences are ideal for ocean enthusiasts looking for their own tropical paradise but with all the comforts and amenities of home. The entire development is framed by massive prehistoric Baka trees and Malolo Hill in the middle of the island creates an impressive backdrop.”
