Is Nananu-i-Cake for sale, and how much does it cost?

Nananu-i-Cake is a 575 acres developed private island in Fiji, Fiji. It is currently offered for sale: US$12,000,000. Tenure is freehold. Foreign ownership is permitted subject to local approvals. This is an editorial profile drawn from public record, clearly attributed, not our listing.

Summary

Nananu-i-Cake is a substantial 575-acre freehold island off northern Viti Levu, offered as a walk-in walk-out estate complete with vehicles, boats, livestock and machinery. Unlike the small motus that dominate the Pacific market, this is a working landholding with scale — five beaches, a satellite islet, pine forest and mango groves — anchored by an established residence and guest pavilions. For a principal seeking a self-sufficient island domain rather than a single villa footprint, it offers genuine acreage, provenance and immediate operability without a construction phase.

Land & Waterfront

The island spans more than five hundred acres of varied terrain: five sandy beaches, coral reefs, protected anchorage, pine plantations and mango groves, with the small satellite islet of Bua adding further privacy. The scale supports genuine agricultural and equestrian use alongside residential enjoyment, and the coastline offers both swimming beaches and sheltered water for vessels. This is one of the larger freehold islands to reach the open Fijian market, giving it a land-banking character absent from the region's compact resort motus.

Access & Utilities

Infrastructure is unusually robust. A natural freshwater spring feeds roughly 300,000 gallons of storage upgraded in 2026, high-capacity generators supply power, and satellite telecommunications keep the island connected. A recently refurbished 110-metre deep-water jetty handles arrivals by sea, and an on-site helipad puts Nadi around 35 minutes away by helicopter; the alternative is a longer road-and-boat transfer. A buyer should confirm generator redundancy and the condition of the water system against year-round occupancy.

Ownership & Use

The island is freehold, the secure and foreign-accessible class of Fijian tenure, and is marketed as a complete going concern with chattels and livestock included. That structure makes it exceptionally turnkey but places a premium on inventory verification during due diligence. Suited uses range from a private family compound and working farm to a low-density hospitality or wellness estate, given the existing residence, guest pavilions and staff quarters. Confirming title, chattel schedules and the standing of the satellite islet should lead the legal review.
