Qamea Resort & Spa, Northern Islands

Indulge in the pleasure of disconnecting at Fiji’s luxejungle retreat, Qamea Resort & Spa.

Located in the pristine islands of Fiji’s north, Qamea is a tropical oasis skirted by two kilometres of pristine white sand and tranquil waters with breathtaking coral gardens and world-class surf.

With just 15 bures scattered throughout 100 acres of swaying coconut palms and verdant gardens, the award-winning boutique resort is an intimate escape. Designed in traditional Fijian-style, all bures feature soaring ceilings, thatched roofs, hand polished mahogany hardwood floors, and local Fijian art as well as outdoor showers, ceiling fans and air-conditioning, and many with private swimming pools or jacuzzi spas.

Whether it’s uninterrupted relaxation or action and adventure you seek, staff will make sure you are as busy as you want to be. Lounge the day away on the beach or by the pool, explore the island from the water by kayak or stand-up paddleboard, or indulge at the award-winning Jungle Spa, a sanctuary where you can relax in blissful reverie.

Snorkel the world’s best house reef right off the beach in front of your bure or take a short boat ride and be transported to a kaleidoscopic underwater biosphere teeming with aquatic life. The resort is home to a PADI-accredited five-star dive operation and offers chartered dives to some of Northern Fiji’s most spectacular sites.

For a dose of romance, the resort’s ‘Night of Decadence’ begins with a Fijian warrior escort for you and your loved one from your bure to Jungle Spa, where Guinot Paris trained therapists will greet you with Champagne and a tropical fruit platter. Your bodies will then be polished with a tropical sugar glow, followed by a sensual candlelit outdoor shower, signature massage and specialised facial. Further relaxation awaits you back at your bure, where you’ll enjoy a candlelit dinner and another bottle of Champagne on the privacy of your veranda while being serenaded by the in-house Qamea band.

Qamea offers a number of activities centred around the local Fijian way of life including a traditional kava ceremony, meke (a traditional style of dance) and visits to local villages. The resort further showcases local tradition through its mouth-watering culinary offerings. The skilled team of chefs takes pride in using the finest local and international ingredients to create an irresistible fusion of Pacific Rim dining at its best with fresh cuisine, local specialties, superb wines, great service and a relaxed ambience.

This is true, authentic paradise.
