Best room for two: Tadra Bure

Whether you’re celebrating a destination wedding, honeymoon, or simply seeking a luxurious retreat, the Tadra Bures offer unrivalled privacy, sweeping ocean views, and an idyllic setting for romantic moments.

Dining
Dining at Malolo Island Resort is a celebration of fresh, local flavours and island-inspired cuisine. The highlight is Treetops Restaurant, an elegant spot overlooking the adults-only pool and tropical gardens. Here, Executive Chef Gregory Llewellyn’s team curate a daily-changing à la carte menu that showcases Pacific Rim dishes with Fijian flair, combining the best local ingredients with refined presentation.
For a more casual option, the Terrace Restaurant offers relaxed meals with beautiful lagoon views. For something truly special, book a private dining experience on the jetty or in a beachfront cabana—perfect for a romantic evening under the stars.
Exploring
Malolo Island Resort offers couples the chance to discover Fiji’s beauty, both above and below the water.
If you’re eager to explore more of the surrounding Mamanuca Islands, the resort’s Island Hopping Tours are a dream. Early morning trips take you past stunning locations like Castaway Island, Mana Island, and MonuRiki — famous as the filming location of Cast Away. Here, snorkel in the clearest, bluest waters teeming with tropical fish and coral gardens, then walk along MonuRiki’s iconic beach, still marked by the “HELP ME” sign from the movie. It’s a picture-perfect adventure for couples who love combining relaxation with discovery.
Back on Malolo, you can explore the resort’s commitment to conservation through its efforts with the Ahura Resorts Conservation Foundation. The foundation protects the local environment, including coral reef regeneration projects and Malolo Island’s rare Tropical Dry Forest reforestation. One of its most impactful initiatives is the rehabilitation of the endangered Malolo Island Crested Iguanas. Thought extinct until rediscovered in 2010, these remarkable creatures now thrive under the foundation’s care, with a dedicated rehabilitation centre ensuring their future in the wild.
