The Best Hotels Near The Remote Resort, by the Record

  1. Eight villas on an isolated peninsula, each with a plunge pool, accessible only by boat from an island you already flew to from another island. The Remote Resort earns its name the hard way. It holds a Michelin 2 Keys distinction and sits on sixty-four acres where jungle meets beach on Fiji's Rainbow Reef, blending vacation-house seclusion with proper hotel services, guided dives, peninsula hikes, and garden-fresh seafood for guests who wanted to disappear but not rough it.


  2. Five square miles of rainforest, reef, and coconut groves in the remote Koro Sea, all for twenty-five guests at a time. This private-island resort holds twenty-five villas built from thatch, timber, and stone, each with a pool, sun deck, and open-air bath. The interiors run to vaulted ceilings and serious woodwork, which leaves the ocean light doing most of the decorating. Days go to reef dives or rainforest treks, or nothing at all. The Michelin Guide awarded it two Keys.


  3. The 25 private bures have no televisions or phones, and the resort would like you to understand that this is a feature. Spread across seventeen acres of coconut plantation on Savusavu Bay, this is a sustainability-forward island resort carrying the Cousteau name, which means the in-house marine biologist runs the diving program and the whole operation treats the reef as something to protect, not just photograph. A Michelin Key holder.
