The Essence Fiji - Qamea Resort and Spa


The jewel of Fiji's northern islands, Qamea is a breathtakingly beautiful island of dramatic lush, green, tropical jungle clad hills and white sand beaches.

Qamea Resort and Spa is an exclusive tropical destination for discerning travelers seeking a truly unique and authentic Fijian experience without sacrificing luxury or service. From the moment you step onto the island, you will feel as if you have entered a Fijian village set in a South Pacific tropical paradise.


Qamea Resort and Spa has a ongoing commitment to providing affordable luxury accommodation and is just one of the reasons why they received numerous awards such as one of the "Top Ten Hideaway Resorts in the World" by the Robb Report, and more recently the only resort in the South Pacific to be nominated for Conde Nast's highest award for 2008, "Most Excellent Resort in the Atlantic, Caribbean and Pacific Islands."



The cuisine at Qamea can best be described as South Pacific Rim, which is similar to California Cuisine. Their fruits and vegetables are organic, and if not from Their own gardens, are flown in three times a week from New Zealand. All of the seafood is local, caught daily by two Qamea fishermen. The beef and poultry is also flown in from Australia and New Zealand.

Once a week, usually on Sunday afternoon, guests are invited for a wine tasting at the Bure Kalau. Featuring fine Australian and New Zealand wines.

This is a perfect opportunity to sample exceptional wines from our neighbours in the South Pacific and meet other guests. It also helps  in selecting new wines to add to our ever growing wine cellar.




What could be better than exchanging your vows on the beautiful island of Qamea? Whether you want your Fijian wedding to be a private affair or full Fijian cultural experience, their wedding coordinator will make sure your wedding is an occasion you will cherish for the rest of your lives. At Qamea Resort and Spa, they have designed three wedding packages which meet the requirements of most guests. Customized wedding packages are also available.


Qamea Resort & Spa was selected as one of the top ten "Best Luxury South Pacific" resorts for 2006-2008 by TripAdvisor's Travelers' Choice Awards. It is defiantly a resort worth looking into for your destination wedding plans
