Is Laucala Island for rent, and what does it cost?

Laucala Island is a 3500 acres resort / operating business private island in Fiji, Fiji. It is offered for whole-island rental: US$170,000 / night · sleeps 80. This is an editorial profile drawn from public record, clearly attributed, not our listing.

Summary

Laucala is an exceptionally large private-island resort in northern Fiji — some 3,500 acres with its own jet-capable airstrip, an eighteen-hole golf course and a working organic farm — now operated under the COMO banner. Individual villas start around USD 4,800 per night, the Hilltop Estate reaches roughly USD 45,000, and a full-island buyout is quoted on request in the region of USD 170,000 per night. The scale and self-sufficiency set it apart: this is a near-autonomous estate rather than a compact cay. It suits a large group wanting a resort's full amenity set combined with genuine island seclusion.

Land & Waterfront

The island covers roughly 3,500 acres of volcanic terrain, forest and beach northeast of Taveuni, framing a central lagoon and long stretches of Pacific shoreline. Twenty-five bures are dispersed across mountainside, beachfront and overwater settings, so guests experience varied landscapes within a single property. Waters support diving, game fishing and the full watersports range, and a submarine is among the toys on offer. The land itself is a defining asset — large enough to hold a golf course, farm and multiple restaurants without crowding the coast.

Access & Utilities

Access is a fifty-minute private air charter from Nadi International into the island's own concrete airstrip, which handles day and night operations and jet-class aircraft. Utilities are island-generated in the remote-resort pattern; specifics are not published, but the estate's organic farm supplies much of its produce, meat and spa ingredients, underscoring a self-sufficiency theme. A fleet of boats supports marine access. The practical picture is an unusually autonomous island that manufactures much of what it consumes and controls its own aviation gateway.

Ownership & Use

Laucala is a rental only; no ownership is conveyed. Guests can book individual villas or, on request, take the entire island for a large private party — capacity runs into the dozens across the 25 residences. The amenity set is expansive: five restaurants, a large spa, golf, tennis, diving and game fishing, all fully staffed. The full-island buyout positions Laucala among the South Pacific flagships, while per-villa rates open a lower entry point. The proposition is a self-contained luxury estate offering resort breadth with private-island exclusivity.
