Likuliku Lagoon Resort on Fiji’s Malolo Island will start welcoming back guests on 1 May, following the completion of a FJ$10 million (AU$7M) revitalisation project.
Ahura Resorts, the Fijian family-owned management company behind the resort, said the three-month transformation demonstrates the property’s continued commitment to relaxed luxury, sustainable tourism, and world-class experiences.
“With a multi-million dollar investment, we’ve taken the resort to new heights, elevating both our offerings and the guest experience,” Resort Owner and Managing Director of Ahura Resorts Tony Whitton said.
“These changes reinforce our commitment to providing an exceptional experience as one of Fiji’s premier and iconic luxury resorts, and we look forward to continuing offering world-class experiences as Fiji’s tourism industry continues to thrive.”
Guests can now enjoy a refreshed experience that includes a new dining concept, upgraded accommodations, and an innovative conservation hub.

Accommodation upgrades include a full refresh of all bures, with 11 Beachfront Bures now featuring private plunge pools. Overwater Bures have received luxe bathroom enhancements, and all bures now include Smart TVs, espresso machines, and upgraded amenities.
Additional improvements include environmentally friendly synthetic roof thatching, public space refurbishments, enhanced wifi via Starlink, and a new music system. Coming in June 2025, a water bottling plant will provide “till and sparkling water in recycled branded glass bottles.
A major highlight is Saluwaki, the resort’s new signature restaurant, which offers a Fijian-inspired Asian tapas dining experience. Named for the Fijian word for a collection of indigenous herbs and spices, Saluwaki showcases “small-plate culinary delights served on handcrafted Kigoromo crockery from Japan,” including dishes like ember-roasted Walu and handmade squid ink noodles. With an open kitchen, the restaurant promises “a flavourful and inspired journey through Asia.”
The resort also introduces the Na Vanua Conservation Hub, launched with the Ahura Resorts Conservation Foundation. This interactive space allows guests to engage with programs like coral planting, mangrove restoration, and the conservation of the critically endangered Fiji Crested Iguana. “‘Na Vanua,’ meaning ‘the land’ in Fijian, reflects the deep connection between the land, people, and nature, and highlights efforts to preserve the local ecosystem.
