WAYA ISLAND RESORT
Our Resort Report

OUR thoughts on Waya Island Resort, Waya Island, Yasawa Islands, Fiji
Located at the southern end of the Yasawa Islands archipelago lies the beautiful Waya Island. With pristine, quiet bays fringed by luscious forests, Waya Island is an unspoiled sanctuary located in the heart of the Pacific. Waya Island Resort opened in 2023 and is now welcoming guests. With 17 bures and a maximum of 34 guests, this adults-only resort is intimate, private, and utterly unique. Waya Island Resort is your gateway to everything the Yasawa Islands has to offer. Relax pool-side or explore a kaleidoscope of marine life during snorkeling or diving adventures.

Spend your days at Waya Island Resort basking in the warm tropical sun, whether on a stretch of golden sand beach or over a poolside cocktail. Unwind further with a treatment at the open-air massage pavilion while listening to the gentle murmur of the nearby ocean. Satisfy your appetite at the onsite restaurant, which offers a uniquely intimate, home-style cooking approach. Chefs at Waya Island Resort source only the freshest ingredients – including island-grown produce and world-class seafood – to create a dining experience you’re unlikely to forget.

Waya Island Resort also has plenty to offer the more active traveller. Join a guided hike through the jungle, taking in stunning mountain views or immerse yourself in Fijian culture during a visit to Waya Island’s local village. Beneath the surface, find a vibrant underwater world of coral and marine life, which can be explored on guided snorkelling trips or at your own leisure on a kayak or stand-up paddleboard. However you like to holiday, Waya Island Resort is the perfect base.
