Waya Lailai Island
Wayalailai Resort is a prime example of a true eco-resort in Fiji.
Fully sustainable and collectively owned by the island’s three villages, Wayalailai Resort offers one of the most authentic ways to experience local Fijian culture and ways of life. Located on Wayalailai Island ( also called Waya Sewa Island) at the southern tip of the Yasawa Island chain, a sense of community is reflected in every aspect of the unique Fiji resort.
Meals provide opportunity for insight into the communal way of life in a Fijian village. In addition to offering both European and traditional Fijian cuisine made with fresh, local ingredients, lovo cooking – barbecues in an underground oven – take place every Wednesday night. A bar on site is stocked with both hard and soft drinks, and guests are welcome to Wayalailai Resort’s supply of fresh spring water for drinking and bathing.
Whether you want to spend your Fiji vacation hiking to the top of the island mountain for vista sunset views or relaxing on the beach in the early morning calm, a stay at Wayalailai Resort will introduce you to local culture in Fiji and allow you to contribute to the social sustainability of the island in a positive way.
