Sonaisali
Why Wedding Destinations Loves Sonaisali Resort!
An island resort located south of Nadi; the gateway to the Coral Coast. The resort has 24 hour mainland access via the complimentary launch boat. This stunning resort boasts the largest lagoon pool, overlooking the beautiful ocean with its very own swim-up bar.
A true island escape but only a 3 minute boat ride across the lagoon to the mainland, thus offering you the best of both worlds. With the shopping culture and restaurants just a stones throw away. We highly recommend the spa bures, why you ask? Just imagine sipping your champagne whilst basked in bubbles in your spa that’s sunken on the deck of your bure, soaking in the magical sunset. Everyone is welcome at Sonaisali
catering for all ages and there is so much to do!
