Inspired by ancient South Pacific traditions that combine holistic healing and nourishment with native botanicals, Fiji’s spa treatments are an essential element of any Fijian island holiday. Here is your ultimate guide to lavish, luxe and oh-so-indulgent spa treatments at Fiji’s luxurious island resorts.
COMO Laucala Island
Likuliku Lagoon Resort
Where tropical forest meets the azure colours of the South Pacific Ocean, Tatadra Spa takes its name from the Fijian word meaning ‘house of dreams’. All treatments utilise Pure Fiji products made from botanical extracts and sourced ethically and sustainably. Specialty treatments include a 90-minute Fiji Island Ritual incorporating whole body cleansing, detoxifying and massage or a Coconut Body Glow to gently buff, polish and hydrate the skin.
Turtle Island Resort
Set in an idyllic location on the shore of the famed Blue Lagoon, Turtle Island’s spa is a tranquil sanctuary where gentle breezes waft in from the sea and relaxing scents of lemongrass, lavender and rosemary permeate the air. Signature treatments include whole body massages influenced by timeless Polynesian traditions where cold-pressed indigenous nut oils are infused by soft island aromas. Soothing and nourishing, combine a massage with a body scrub or facial for holistic rejuvenation and whole-body relaxation.

Yasawa Island Resort And Spa
Multi-award winning Baravi Spa was Fiji’s first beachfront spa and takes its name (and inspiration) from the Fijian word for beach.
