Appointed by Bixby Capital to re-open the previously failed Taunovo Bay Resort, as Nanuku Fiji Resort and Spa required overcoming negative Wholesaler perceptions of the destination. Specifically being located on the mainland of Fiji in a major rain belt, and lacking a world class beach.
These shortfalls were overcome by focussing on and optimising the strengths of the location.
| Creating an "island experience, on the mainland" | Weaving an authentic cultural, and bespoke guest service experience. | A Fiji first Food Safari Adventure concept. Marketing the “Spirit of Nanuku”. |
Within its first year Nanuku achieved Best Food Fiji and rated Trip Advisor top 1% in guest reviews globally. The only property in the South Pacific to be selected by Conde Nast for their Hot List in 2016.
"My prayers are with you, that you may live longer and share with many what you have shared with us at Nanuku, it is unique and will never be found elsewhere"
Vincent Mistry | Administrator, Nanuku Resort
