THE DEVELOPMENT Sonaisali Premium Fiji Residences is a new five star facility on Naisali Island. The island is 20 minutes from Nadi International Airport, and is reached in minutes by ferry from the mainland. Stage One is opening in 2006. Each residence, regardless of configuration, is designed and built to the highest standards by international companies. Those on the lagoon side have been conceived as elevated tree houses with the living areas rising above the natural tropical canopy, providing both a fascinating outlook and an atmosphere of complete privacy. The residences on the ocean side are terraced to the water’s edge, and thus have island views, fringed by spacious, private tropical gardens. In addition, this configuration will include a screened courtyard and private plunge pools. A richly vegetated central landscaped area will include sports and recreational areas for chip-and-putt golf, tennis and other activities. The particular care taken with planning gives each residence privacy within a generous, natural and airy space, a feature that contributes to the essential difference between this and existing ventures.
