Welcome to Shangri-La's Fijian Resort & Spa, Yanuca, Fiji Islands
An enchanting tropical gem on private Yanuca Island, Shangri-La's Fijian Resort & Spa offers vacationers and families an idyllic South Pacific escape, with kid's play areas, a wide range of dining and recreation options, and exceptional wedding and event venues.

The new Ratu Makutu Events Centre has been completed, and the new CHI, The Spa at Shangri-La opened in October and it is the largest and most luxurious private spa in Fiji. 

CHI, The Spa at Shangri-La

CHI, The Spa at Shangri-La is designed to create a sanctuary of tranquillity inspired by the legend of "Shangri-La". CHI features some of the largest and most luxurious private spa suites and villas. It offers a range of specialised body, water, massage and facial therapies based on the ancient healing traditions, philosophies and rituals of China and the Himalayas.

Timeless Healing Traditions For Your Personal Well-Being

CHI, the Spa at Shangri-La, embraces a holistic approach to physical and spiritual vitality. Inspired by traditional healing philosophies from China and the Himalayas, our treatments are based upon the principles of restoring balance and harmony to mind and body.

Spacious Luxury in a Private, Personal Spa

Inside CHI, the Spa at the Shangri-La, you'll enjoy an expansive private spa suite that includes a changing area, spa shower, bath and steam, and a lounge--a 'spa within a spa' exclusively for your relaxation and enjoyment. The oils and fragrances used in our therapies are customised to your personal element sign, which is expressed by your preferences in tastes, colors, and daily living.

Ch'i: A Classic Approach to Health and Vitality

In Chinese philosophy, ch'i is the universal life force that governs well-being and personal vitality. Our treatments express the essence of this time-honoured Asian approach to healing.

Seaside Wedding Chapel

Set amidst a plantation of palm trees at the water's edge, the non-denominational Seaside Chapel is located in an intimate and secluded setting. The chapel seats up to 40 guests. On a raised platform, tall vases cascading with fragrant tropical blooms, stand each side of the altar which faces a glass wall and ceiling, providing the bride and groom and their guests with sweeping views of the reef and the Pacific Ocean.

We suggest an afternoon wedding where the hues of blue, green and white are at their spectacular best just prior to sunset. Our dedicated Event Management Team guarantees a worry-free reception down to the last detail, ensuring a perfect reception.

Exploring Nature

We believe that leisure travel must be ecologically sustainable and sensitive to our shared natural and human environment.

The Resort shares in a number of different environmental programmes, and is a major stakeholder in the Fiji Locally Managed Marine Area Network. The Resort’s Yanuca Marine Protected Area is the first large-scale co-operative project between a resort, a non-governmental organisation and the local reef-owning communities.  The project was chosen as an International Coral Reef Action Network “model site for coral reef conservation” by the United Nations Environmental Programme.

We invite our guests to explore Fiji's fascinating island environment by participating in our guided tours and environmental activities. Contact us for more details.
