Lalati Resort, Beqa Island Fiji

Lalati Resort is located at the opening of the Malamu Bay on Beqa Island, Fiji.

Carefully cut out of  rainforest, the property has ten acres of white sand beaches and seven bures.

On a clear calm day, a favorite activity is paddling down Malamu Bay at high tide.  After winding through the mangroves you will reach the other side of the island. Take a picnic and stop for lunch on the secluded beach, then paddle back past Soliyaga Island, snorkeling along the reef as you make your way  to the shores of Lalati. 

Nanuku Island is your own private little paradise. Just minutes away from Lalati by boat, we'll drop you off for a picnic, shelling, and snorkeling. Call us on the walkie-talkie and we'll pick you up.  

How about a walk along the untouched beaches and coves of Beqa, especially at sunset?   

You can dive, surf and kayak and after get into the health and spa or if you  are still energetic the gym

Deluxe Beach Bure

Each of our five Deluxe Beach Bures features two bedrooms, one with a queen bed, the other with a zip-apart king size bed, a sitting area, a large modern bathroom, and a large verandah.

Bua Bure

Lalati features a unique bure named the Bua Bure. Although set back from the beach neither the excellent ocean views nor views of Lalati's wonderful tropical gardens are sacrificed. The Bua Bure similarly contains a spacious sitting area, comfortable bedroom, full modern bathroom, and a large verandah. Due to its location in the resort, we offer a lower nightly rate -- but with all  the extras included that make Lalati special!

Bathrooms

Your beautifully tiled bathroom includes a spacious shower which supports the washwater garden at the rear, where  flowering plants are nourished.

Beqa is the ancestral home of Fiji Islands' fierce and famous Fire Walkers. These people have the mystic gift of walking barefoot on hot rocks without harm. Ask one of the staff to relate the incredible legend that explains how this came to be. This unique event is part of Lalati Resort's traditional Fijian evening (Meke) complete with native food prepared Lovo style. Local villagers will gather around the carved wooden Kava bowl with you, sharing their grog, stories, and culture. Lalati Resort supports sustainability on remote Beqa Island. Remuneration by the resort for cultural events helps support the local villages so that the Fijian culture sustains itself.

The Beqa Islanders are proud to share their native Meke dancing, Fire Walking ceremonies, and Kava sessions with you. 

Lalati's pacific rim food is legendary among guests. Beato and his staff creatively blend regional fruits and vegetables, fresh fish, and imported meats into skillfully-seasoned and artfully-presented meals. Favourite dinners include the Sesame-Seared Ahi with Wasabi Sauce, the New Zealand Rack of Lamb, and the Walu with Lemon-Caper Sauce. 

Lunches might include a Chicken Pesto Pizza from our Italian wood-fired pizza oven, Lalati's signature fish tacos with fresh Roti, or Soba noodles and fresh Wahoo. There are also plentiful salads of varietal lettuce grown in Lalati's  own garden. 

Returning guests always ask for their dessert favourites, such as the chocolate tower, crème brulee, or the decadent chocolate soufflé. All are irresistible. They also serve homemade coconut ice cream and mango, pineapple, and kumquat sorbets. 

The staff are happy to accommodate vegetarian requests or any other special dietary needs. They try to grow as many of the fruits, vegetables, and herbs on site as possible.  And don't worry, they change the menu daily!
