Small Resorts in the Yasawa Islands
Although the Yasawa Islands are some of the remotest islands in Fiji, it often doesn’t feel that way when sharing the beach with all the guests of a large island resort. If you seek tranquillity and exclusivity during your stay in the Yasawa Islands, then your best option is to stay in one of the islands’ boutique resorts and lodges. We’ve chosen some of your best options in this list of boutique resorts in the Yasawa Islands!

1. Navutu Stars Resort
If you’re looking for that place where you’ll find pure peace and serenity, then definitely consider the Navutu Stars Resort. Not only does the five-star resort have only nine bures (bungalows) spread across three picturesque bays, but the resort is “adults-only” meaning that there will be no guests under the age of 16. There are three luxury bure types to choose from either on the beachfront or on the hills overlooking the ocean. See more options like this in our 5 Adult-Only Resorts in the Yasawa Islands.

Natabe Retreat is a stunning getaway for couples, families or groups of mates in stylish and modern accommodation for up to six people. Despite it being your own private getaway on Tavewa Island, guests will still benefit from resort-style service with dining and activity options.
