Island AreaAbout 20 acres (8.3 ha), incl. foreshore reserve

Sunny Bay is an island of about 20 acres, 15 minutes north of Nadi International Airport. Like Denarau, it is reached by a short bridge, just 1 km off the main road. It holds a 7.33-acre hotel site and 31 waterfront residential lots. The whole island is offered direct by its owner, a Fiji resort builder of more than 30 years.

Opportunities of this scale, with both tourism and residential components already pre-structured, are seldom brought to market in this part of Fiji.

Road Access Note

The site is road accessible and about 1 km from the main road. The road to the bridge is currently unsealed. The vendor's estimate to seal it is about AUD $1.33M (FJD $2M). The vendor advises that a Fijian Government incentive can rebate up to 100% of this cost, subject to eligibility and approval.

About the Vendor

30 Years Building
Fiji's Best Resorts

Sunny is a Fiji-based developer with over 30 years of experience delivering hospitality and infrastructure projects across Fiji and New Zealand. His construction business has held contracts for Hilton-branded resort developments, premium private island properties, and significant government infrastructure across Viti Levu.

Now approaching 70, Sunny is looking to spend more time with his grandchildren in Australia. He is selling Sunny Bay, his final development landholding, by Expressions of Interest and is seeking a clean, timely sale.

Key buyer advantage: Sunny's construction business remains available to plan and deliver the build — giving the incoming owner direct access to one of the most experienced resort builders in the South Pacific from day one. This fundamentally de-risks delivery for any buyer unfamiliar with building in Fiji.

Market Context

Located in the Nadi–Lautoka growth corridor. Neighbours include Anchorage Beach Resort, First Landing Resort, Sapphire Estate Villas and Vuda Marina. The valuer notes demand for beachfront lots in this corridor significantly outpaces supply, with values rising rapidly year-on-year.

What You Can Build

Six Development
Pathways

Boutique Hotel or Resort

Lot 36 (7.33 acres) is zoned Special Use – Hotel. Ideal for a branded boutique hotel, overwater bungalows, or luxury resort in one of the Pacific's most recognisable destinations.

Villa & Lifestyle Release

31 residential lots (lease areas of 1,088–1,669 m²) can be individually released or developed as a staged villa project with shared resort amenities — generating early returns ahead of any hotel build.

Mixed-Use Tourism

Combine hotel operations with villa sales, serviced residences, or a private members club to optimise yield and capital recovery across both land parcels simultaneously.

Staged / Phased Execution

Develop residential lots first for early revenue and reduced upfront exposure, then execute the hotel site in a later phase — entirely on your own capital timeline.

Joint Venture Partnership

The vendor is open to staged entry, capital partnership, or co-development structures. All discussions are held directly with Sunny.

Strategic Land Hold

Acquire and hold in a high-growth corridor, with proven Fiji builder support available when you're ready to develop.
