At the heart of the development is Sofitel’s second Fijian address. Set to open in early 2027 on Denarau Island, Sofitel Fiji Vatu Talei spans 10 acres and includes expansive lagoons and a winding lazy river plus a rooftop infinity pool and an adults-only retreat. It has 176 rooms, a mix of dining venues, cultural experiences, and integrated leisure elements.
Alongside Sofitel, the partnership will introduce two brands new to Fiji. In August 2026, The Sebel Nuku Loaloa Living will debut its extended-stay accommodation in Fiji. Located in Wailoaloa, Nadi, the property will feature 76 fully self-contained apartments and villas, ranging from one and two-bedroom residences to expansive three-bedroom villas with private outdoor decks. Clients will also find a restaurant and bar plus an extensive recreation and wellness centre, featuring a 25m pool, gym, yoga studio, sauna, spa and pickleball court. Guests will also have access to the Denarau Island resort precinct via a complimentary shuttle service.
TRIBE will make its Fijian debut with TRIBE Na Tomba, opening in late 2026 on Denarau Island. Conceived as a contemporary hub where design, culture and connection come together, the hotel will have 118 rooms across a range of flexible configurations, from cosy king rooms to spacious two-bedroom apartments. Guests can expect vibrant dining venues, a pool bar, two pools, a 24/7 fitness centre and communal spaces.
