Where to eat

La Bottega has emerged as Nadi Bay’s most popular dining destination, known for its incredible food and memorable staff (be sure to book ahead).

Harvest also offers lighter options, such as salads and grilled seafood, and is open for breakfast and dinner.

Down by the pool, Azura offers healthy snacks for little kids as well as a comprehensive cocktail list for big kids, accompanied by summer classics including burgers, fish and chips and skewers of chicken, lamb and pork cooked over a burnt coconut shell grill.

If you’re after a quick snack, The Lobby Lounge offers casual bites, while those in need of a proper caffeine hit can pick up a barista-made cappuccino and pastry at Bean Bar Cafe, the resort’s French patisserie (conveniently open from 7am to meet the needs of early risers and those coming from morning sessions at the fitness centre).

Savour modern Italian delights.

After dark

Come nightfall, Wailoaloa Beach is one of Nadi’s hottest dining and nightlife destinations, popular with locals and tourists. The beachside bars have made it the perfect place to watch the sun go down over the ocean.

One of the most popular spots for a sundowner is the Urban Sugar Beach Club, a European-style beach club – the first of its kind in Fiji. Listen to DJs dropping fresh beats, sip on ice-cold cocktails that take the edge off the heat, feast on Jimbaran and Indonesian-inspired cuisine, enjoy fresh seafood and take in the ocean breeze from your private cabana.

For something more sophisticated, try the Latitude Bar and Lounge, which has a tapas-inspired menu with small bites and a buzzing happy hour that kicks off at 9pm. For an even more refined experience, take a seat in the exclusive 17.78 Whiskey Bar, located inside Latitude, which offers a selection of rare whiskeys, as well as several locally distilled boutique drops.
