Preserving the Future
At Six Senses Fiji, we're deeply committed to sustainable practices, from energy and water conservation to effective waste management and going plastic-free. Our sustainability programs include conserving energy and rainwater, producing high-quality drinking water, and cultivating organic produce. With one of the largest off-grid solar installations in the Southern Hemisphere incorporating Tesla batteries, we harness solar energy to provide power for the resort and desalination plant. Our Cluckingham Palace is home to over 100 chickens that supply fresh eggs for our restaurants, while nearby protected beehives produce delicious honey and honeycomb. Guests can also enjoy hands-on activities at our Earth Lab, where they can transform junk into jewellery, create oils, soaps, and beeswax, and engage in upcycling methods, fostering a deeper connection with our natural world while promoting sustainable practices. In addition to our environmental efforts, we're dedicated to giving back to the local community and environment. Whether it's through restoring infrastructure, providing clean water access, supporting education, or participating in tree-planting initiatives, we strive to make a positive impact. Our commitment extends to protecting the endangered Fijian crested iguana and restoring coral reefs in the region, ensuring a brighter future for both our guests and the environment.

Iguana conservation
Six Senses Fiji is proud to be home to critically endangered Fijian Crested Iguanas. Since the Resort’s opening in April 2018, their population has grown from 17 to 40 individuals as of the latest survey in December 2023. We're dedicated to safeguarding these unique residents and expanding their habitat, the “Green Belt” forest located within the resort. When strolling the winding boardwalk, you may spot these allusive creatures, or why not join our Iguana Spotting to learn more our reptilian friends and our efforts to protect and increase their habitat.

Reef Restoration
We’re excited to have teamed up with “Coral Gardeners”, making Six Senses Fiji their first international location outside French Polynesia. This partnership is all about actions to protect and regenerate Fiji's stunning but fragile coral reefs. We're also passionate about spreading the word on the importance of reef conservation by involving guests and the local community in conservation action. Together, we’re on a mission to make a real difference and keep our marine ecosystems thriving.
Social Responsibility
Promoting the well-being and health of the community, education, environmental protection, preservation of biodiversity and cultural heritage are part of our community commitments.

Community development
We prioritize hiring locals and provide apprenticeships and development programs to help nurture homegrown talent. Our resort is all in when it comes to supporting various cottage industries, giving the local economy a much-needed boost. We have teamed up with “Rise Beyond the Reef”, an NGO focused on empowering women in remote communities. They teach traditional skills to create goods that we proudly showcase in our villas and restaurants. You can even find a curated selection in our resort and spa boutiques. The best part? The money from these sales goes straight back to those communities, helping women fight poverty and support financial independence one purchase at a time.

Solevu Village
We collaborate with Solevu Village on Malolo Island to improve local livelihoods. In 2023, we provided the installation of four new 10,000 L water tanks. These are crucial to collect and store rainwater during the rainy season and ensure a consistent water supply throughout the year. Aditionally, we donated four wheelchairs to support the elderly members of the community and provided essential school materials for the children.
