Fiji’s exclusive Kokomo Private Island has named Sean Flakelar as the property’s new General Manager.

Kokomo Private Island has announced the appointment of Louise Smythe as Director of Sales and Marketing. “I am very excited about the opportunity of being part of a dedicated team who is committed and passionate about telling the unique story of Kokomo Private Island,” said Smythe of her appointment, where she will be ensuring the full-service guest experience in the resort continues to be exceptional.

Many hotels around Fiji are adopting a new farm-to-plate experience, creating on-site vegetable and herb gardens, for a more sustainable approach to F&B, hospitality and service for their guests. Being an archipelago of 333 islands, importing produce to Fiji can be expensive and time-consuming, but with so much lush tropical landscape in abundance, hotels are now capitalising on what Fiji naturally offers.
