Fiji’s Best Adults-Only Resorts for a Sun-Soaked Escape

If Fiji is on your radar, you clearly have excellent taste. But if the idea of splash zones and kids’ menus doesn’t fit your vision of a tropical retreat, Fiji’s adults-only resorts offer something far better, boutique beachfront hideaways, private islands where the only footprints in the sand are yours, and overwater bungalows built for two.

Not all resorts in Fiji live up to the dream, though. Some promise paradise and deliver… well, something less. So, if tranquility, luxury, and a cocktail that arrives without a side of pool floaties are the goal, these are the stays truly worth your time.

Each one of these resorts has been handpicked by our Fijian resort expert for their atmosphere, design, and experiences. However, when you book something through our links, we may earn an affiliate commission. Thanks for your support.

Fiji’s Best Adults-Only Resorts

Tokoriki Island Resort

Tokoriki Island Resort is pure honeymoon energy, even if you’re not on one. Everything about this adults-only escape feels tailored for relaxation, from the orchid-draped walkways to the candlelit dinners under the stars. It’s quiet, but not dull, romantic, without trying too hard.

Set in the northern Mamanucas, a quick helicopter or boat ride away from Nadi, yet far enough away to feel like a secluded paradise. The surrounding reef is teeming with marine life, and the sunsets over the infinity pool are orange, fiery, and cinematic. Villas are freestanding and beautifully private, with lava-rock outdoor showers, plunge pools and surrounded by lush tropcial gardens.

Most days revolve around the art of doing nothing, lounging by the infinity pool with a cocktail in hand, drifting into the outdoor library to enjoy the shade (both excellent choices), and watching the fire-lighting ceremony that marks the start of a Tokoriki evening.

But there’s plenty for the curious. The resort’s PADI dive center offers access to world-class dive sites, including coral gardens, dramatic drop-offs, and shark encounters for the brave. Snorkel excursions, village visits to nearby Monuriki (of Cast Away fame), guided reef walks, and Fijian cultural nights are all in the mix.

If you're in the mood for something spectacular, book the heli-picnic to a private sand cay. It's exactly what it sounds like, a tiny speck of white sand in the middle of the Pacific, a gourmet hamper, champagne on ice, and no one else for miles.

There’s also a garden spa hidden behind thick palms, where couples can book side-by-side massages using island botanicals. The team is discreet but deeply intuitive, expect service that reads the room before you even say a word.

Tokoriki achieves what so many other resorts overcomplicate, beauty, peace, and privacy in a place that still feels authentically Fijian. You come here to disconnect from everything that doesn’t matter, and reconnect with what does.

Royal Davui Private Island Resort

A castaway fantasy, if Tom Hanks had champagne service. With only 16 thatched villas scattered across a tiny private island in Fiji’s Beqa Lagoon, Royal Davui is the kind of place where you could stay for a week and seriously consider never leaving. Each villa is perched on a jungle-draped bluff with panoramic ocean views, private plunge pools, and sun decks that practically dare you to cancel your return flight (we actually did).

This is adults-only escapism at its best, remote, romantic, and pristinely beautiful. Interiors lean traditional but modern, with high-pitched ceilings, hand-carved timber, and open-air spa bathrooms designed to make the most of the sea breeze.

Royal Davui is best known for its sand cay picnic, a private dining setup on a shifting sandbar in the middle of the lagoon. You’ll arrive by boat, champagne in hand, for a few blissfully uninterrupted hours before the tide reclaims the cay. A second private picnic setup, hidden in a cove on the main island, is ideal for proposals, anniversaries, or just disappearing with a cheese board and chilled rosé.

By sunset, the Banyan Deck becomes the social heart of the resort, champagne, tapas, golden-hour views, and a rousing bet on the nightly crab race. It’s elegant but never stiff, with just enough buzz to keep it lively.

Activity-wise, there’s more than enough to do. You can snorkel straight from shore, paddleboard through the lagoon, or join a village visit on the mainland. But the real highlight is beneath the surface, Beqa Lagoon is one of the best dive sites in Fiji, renowned for its vibrant soft coral reefs and thrilling shark dives. Dive with bull sharks, reef sharks, and tiger sharks in their natural habitat, or explore technicolor coral gardens and dramatic reef walls with expert dive guides.

For something more offbeat, try after-dark snorkeling, when the reef glows with bioluminescence and nocturnal sea life comes to life.

It’s private, well run, and blissfully disconnected from the noise, which is exactly what makes it unforgettable.

Matamanoa Island Resort

Matamanoa is where you go when you want the world to leave you alone, in the best way possible. Set on a privately owned island in the Mamanucas, this adults-only escape is all about barefoot luxury, unplugged days, and unapologetic relaxation. No kids, no pressure, no decisions, except maybe whether to nap on an oversized lounger or finally dive into the bluest water you’ve ever seen.

The island itself is compact but lush, with volcanic ridgelines, dense palms, and long stretches of white sand that rarely feel crowded. Days move at a refreshingly slow pace, morning walks around the headland, massages in the hillside treehouse spa, snorkel trips off the reef, and cocktails served strong, with views of the outer islands.

If you need more than stillness, the resort’s PADI-certified dive center can arrange trips to some of the region’s top underwater spots, including the legendary “Supermarket” shark dive, where reef sharks, rays, and big pelagics cruise through soft coral gardens.

Beachfront bures are just steps from the tide, designed for salty mornings in the lagoon and barefoot evenings watching the sunset. Interiors are simple but charming, cool tiled floors, traditional timberwork, and comfortable beds.

There’s no nightlife scene, and that’s kind of the point. This is the kind of place where you read the book, take the nap, drink the aperol spritz, and send one smug “wish you were here” text before turning your phone back on airplane mode.

Likuliku Lagoon Resort

If overwater bungalows are the dream, Likuliku is the reality. Home to Fiji’s only true overwater bures, this is the kind of place where you wake up, roll out of bed, and step straight into a marine sanctuary that looks like a screensaver. The snorkeling? Insane. The views? Even better. Your instagram stories will be unbearable.

But Likuliku isn’t just good looking, it’s got personality. The resort leans into Fijian culture, from its traditional thatched architecture to its weekly meke performances, where locals turn ancient legends into dance.

By day, you’re hopping between islands, hiking to sacred Fijian sites, or perfecting the art of doing absolutely nothing with a cocktail in hand at the beachfront lounge. And let’s talk about the food. Finding real Fijian flavors at a resort can be hit or miss, but Likuliku does it right. The menu is packed with fresh, island-driven dishes that make every meal just as memorable as the view.

Matangi Private Island Resort

A treehouse escape on a volcanic island, Matangi is about as remote as it gets. Set on a 240-acre private island, this is luxury with a Robinson Crusoe twist, minus the shipwreck, plus five-star comforts.

Tucked among the palms, treehouse bures come with open-air stone showers and wraparound decks, making morning coffee a ritual accompanied only by the sound of the waves.

Signature experiences lean into the island’s natural beauty: a private picnic at Horseshoe Bay (often ranked among the world’s most romantic beaches), jungle treks through lush rainforest, and snorkeling over coral gardens teeming with life.

And while Matangi might be blissfully off the beaten path, they haven't skimped on indulgence. The on-island spa even features luxe Vichy showers for the ultimate post-adventure unwind.

Lomani Island Resort

Lomani, meaning “love” in Fijian, was built for romance, and it shows. Tucked away on Malolo Lailai Island, this adults-only retreat is the kind of place where the ocean is always within arm’s reach, whether you’re waking up to uninterrupted beachfront views, stepping out onto your private sun deck, or rinsing off in an outdoor shower.

Here, couples trade schedules for sunset sails, outdoor spa treatments, and morning dolphin safaris, where playful pods skim the waves alongside your boat. The infinity-edge pool is made for balmy afternoons with a book and a spritz in hand, while the resort’s complimentary bikes let you explore hidden corners of the island at your own pace.

For something extra special, private beachside dinners set the scene for an unforgettable night, while the resort’s daily à la carte breakfast, served wherever you like, means mornings in bed are practically encouraged.

And when the sun goes down? Beachfront movie nights under the stars, complete with cocktails and popcorn. Because a rom-com under the stars, cocktail in hand, is the kind of over-the-top romance we all dream of.

Namale Resort & Spa

Namale Resort & Spa is what happens when you drop five-star luxury into a Fijian rainforest and let nature do the rest. Sprawled across 525 acres of lush jungle and wave-crashed cliffs, this all-inclusive, adults-only hideaway is made for couples who like their romance with a side of adventure.

And as a Tony Robbins fangirl, I was ready to take notes, journal my gratitude, and walk across hot coals if that’s what it took to stay here, because, yes, the man himself owns this place. If this is how the king of motivation unwinds, count me in. All hail king Tony.

Here, you’re swapping city stress for oceanfront massages, horseback rides along the beach, and candlelit dinners in a hidden sea cave that feels straight out of a Bond movie. The food? Next level. The resort’s chefs work their magic with local ingredients, turning every meal into an event.

And when you’re not chasing waterfalls, snorkeling the resort’s private reef, or sipping sunset cocktails overlooking the South Pacific, you’ll probably be wondering why real life doesn’t feel like this.

Yasawa Island Resort & Spa

A remote paradise with 11 private beaches, count us in. For those who equate luxury with seclusion, Yasawa Island Resort & Spa delivers. With just 18 beachfront bures across the entire resort, this is about as far from the crowds as you can get.

Days are spent diving in Sawa-i-Lau Caves, indulging in beachfront spa treatments, and soaking in the kind of tranquility that makes time feel irrelevant. While the resort opens to families a few weeks a year, most of the time it remains one of the only true adults-only havens in the Yasawa Islands.

Namotu Island Resort

For couples who prefer surfboards over sun loungers. If your idea of romance includes riding world-class waves, stand-up paddleboarding at sunrise, or deep-sea fishing, this is your spot. The resort offers surf coaching, guided spearfishing trips, and even the chance to have your fresh catch cooked up for dinner. Dreamy.

When you’re not in the water, expect gourmet dining, beachfront villas, and cocktails served with a side of Pacific sunsets.

Intercontinental Fiji Golf Resort & Spa (Adults-Only Section)

For those who want to fly into Nadi and go straight to peace and quiet, the adults-only section at the Intercontinental Fiji is your fast track to tranquility. This secluded enclave within the larger resort comes with its own infinity pool, private lounge, and priority access to the award-winning spa, so you can keep the world at arm’s length while still indulging in five-star luxury.

Days here are a well-balanced mix of indulgence and adventure, tee off at Natadola Bay Championship Golf Course, sip cocktails with front-row ocean views, or book a sunset champagne experience on the resort’s pristine beachfront. It’s the perfect stay for people short on time, looking to make the most of a quick stayover in the sun.

Paradise Cove Resort (The Cove Adults-Only Section)

For those who love the idea of a luxury resort but not the sound of a pool noodle battle, The Cove at Paradise Cove Resort is the answer. This adults-only hideaway, tucked inside the main resort, is a quiet, sun-drenched oasis where quiet plunge pools replace splash zones, and cocktails are sipped, not spilled.

Book a yoga class, spend your days snorkeling pristine reefs with a guide, setting sail at sunset, or indulging in long, wine-filled beachfront dinners. The Cove also has its own dedicated bar service, so you can keep to the adults-only section while still enjoying elevated dining, and expertly mixed drinks.

The best part? You’re just steps away from the action when you want it—but can slip back into serenity the second you don’t.
