Jean-Michel Cousteau Resort

Home · Fiji · Jean-Michel Cousteau Resort

An eco-led family resort on Savusavu Bay, freshly renovated and built around its marine biologists.

Set on Savusavu Bay on the quieter island of Vanua Levu, the Jean-Michel Cousteau Resort reopened in 2026 after its most extensive renovation, including roomier two-bedroom oceanfront residences for extended families. Bures are spread through a coconut plantation that runs down to the water.

The resort is built around the sea: resident marine biologists, a children's program with real substance, and diving on the reefs of the Koro Sea and nearby Namena. It draws families and divers who want an eco-minded stay with character rather than marble-and-mirrors polish.
