INTERNATIONAL developer and operator of luxury resorts Kerzner International Holdings Limited has partnered with institutional investor BSP Life to develop an ultra-luxury resort and community of private homes in Nacula, Yasawa under the One&Only global brand.
The strategic partnership between Kerzner and the subsidiary of BSP Financial Group combines Kerzner’s global expertise in worldclass destination development with the BSP Group’s deep commitment to supporting economic growth throughout the South Pacific.
“Fiji has long been a coveted addition to our global portfolio, and we’re thrilled to introduce this remarkable location to One&Only’s discerning guests,” Kerzner CEO Philippe Zuber said in a statement.
“Unlocking this destination aligns perfectly with our strategic growth in the Asia-Pacific region and reinforces our distinctive approach, continually elevating our commitment to delivering exceptional experiences, all while showcasing the warmth and hospitality of the Fijian spirit on a global stage,” Mr Zuber said.
According to the company, One&Only’s arrival brought a new tier of luxury to the Pacific, further strengthening Fiji’s position as a destination for high-value travellers.
BSP Life Fiji managing director Michael Nacola said this partnership was significant and it was another pivotal moment in their growth journey.
“Our investment portfolio has evolved significantly in the last decade, driven by disciplined, strategic partnerships, and partnering with Kerzner on this exciting venture ushers in a new era of collaboration between a renowned global hospitality brand and a leading South Pacific institution,” Mr Nacola said.
“The benefits from this catalytic investment including job creation, skills development and growth in the tourism industry underscores our commitment to championing prosperity for the South Pacific.
“Kerzner’s arrival also elevates Fiji’s posture as a prime investment destination on the global stage. We thank them for choosing to invest in Fiji, and partner with BSP Life, and look forward to a rewarding partnership.”
Kerzner and BSP Life also acknowledged the traditional landowners of Nacula and the Government for their trust and cooperation.
The resort is slated to open in 2029 with private homes going on sale in November later this year.
The property will include 40 guest rooms, suites and villas, six exceptional culinary experiences, and the brand’s Club One wellness centre.
The resort will also introduce a community of One&Only private homes in Fiji.
An exclusive collection of 20 residences will combine the elevated comforts of home with the brand’s unrivalled amenities and service.
