Dreamy Tropical Island … For 2021
Fiji

Laucala Private Island Resort

Are you missing coconut groves? Dreaming of exotic fruit platters? Craving shaggy thatched roofs? Then we suggest focusing your imagination on the private island home of Red Bull owner Dietrich Mateschitz in Fiji.

Laucala Island Resort is a self-sustaining paradise set amidst lush plantations, sandy beaches and rich green mountains. With just 25 villas, there’s an intimate desert isle feel but with all your essentials: a golf course, authentic wooden yacht, epic glass pools and 350 staff to take care of your needs.

It’s also perfect for families, with a kids’ club and Culture Centre to keep younger ones occupied. Meanwhile, adrenaline junkies can go diving, snorkelling, surfing and kayaking; nature lovers can explore rainforests, mangroves, waterfalls and swimming holes; culturists can visit nearby villages; or you can just enjoy signature massages, sip cocktails and watch the world go by.
