Kerzner International Holdings Limited (“Kerzner”) is delighted to announce the signing of the first One&Only resort and community of Private Homes to be developed in Fiji, Located in the Yasawa Islands, an archipelago in Western Fiji, the resort is slated to open in 2029 with Private Homes going on sale this November.
This milestone development reflects Fiji’s rising prominence as a destination for international investment, made possible through a strategic alliance between Kerzner and BSP Life, one of Fiji’s leading institutional investors and a subsidiary of the BSP Financial Group. The collaboration unites Kerzner’s global expertise in creating world-class destinations with the BSP Group’s strong commitment to fostering economic growth across the South Pacific.
“Fiji has long been a coveted addition to our global portfolio, and we’re thrilled to introduce this remarkable location to One&Only’s discerning guests,” said Philippe Zuber, Chief Executive Officer of Kerzner. “Unlocking this destination aligns perfectly with our strategic growth in the Asia-Pacific region and reinforces our distinctive approach, continually elevating our commitment to delivering exceptional experiences, all while showcasing the warmth and hospitality of the Fijian spirit on a global stage.”
The resort is set on the shores of a stunning beach on Nacula Island, within the Yasawa Islands archipelago. The 127-acre site orchestrates the most beautiful sunsets framed by lush tropical flora, pristine white-sand beaches and crystal-clear turquoise waters. Located 30 minutes from the international airport by sea plane, the island is a sanctuary, where the resort will offer a blend of unparalleled natural beauty and vibrant culture paired with One&Only’s renowned ultra-luxury hospitality.
“Guided by shared principles of respectful development and a deep commitment to preserving Fiji’s ancestral legacy, we are thrilled to partner with BSP Life on this landmark project,” said Juan Aguilar, President of Real Estate at Kerzner. “Inspired by the spirit of Fiji, the design, character, and experiences of the resort and Private Homes will be infused with the soul of the islands.”

The resort will embody the essence of traditional Fijian craftsmanship converged in perfect harmony with contemporary aesthetics through timeless design, breathtaking vistas and al fresco living. One&Only’s immersive and exceptional one-off experiences will further unlock the destination to the rhythm of the idyllic Fijian life.

The benefits from this catalytic investment including job creation, skills development and growth in the tourism industry underscores our commitment to championing prosperity for the South Pacific. Kerzner’s arrival also elevates Fiji’s posture as a prime investment destination on the global stage.
