Namosi Eco Retreat in Navunikabi, open AprilAugust.

Built in 2008 as a private eco-lodge, Namosi Eco Retreat was transformed from a tropical plantation property into a sustainable hospitality destination, preserving its agricultural heritage while introducing modern amenities.

Situated on Namosi Road in Navunikabi, the 12-hectare property maintains its original stone structures and indigenous vegetation, offering couples an authentic Fijian setting with contemporary comfort.

The retreat's commitment to environmental stewardship—powered by 80% renewable energy—defines its approach to destination celebrations.

Lovely opportunity to get into a remote region of Fiji - lush forest and a gorgeous river. Danny is a terrific leader and the staff - Salote, Toma, Maria 💙💚🧡 are without fail helpful, very friendly and multi talented! They looked after us beautifully and we loved getting to know them and their families. Great music, dancing, food - thank you all so much. As with other reviewers, getting there was quite an adventure - but that's all part and parcel of the experience😉
