The travel industry is waiting with bated breath for further information about the development of
Kokomo Yaukuve Island Fiji, the first foray into resort properties for Lang Walker of
Walker Corporation.
Due to open to the public in 2016, the resort is accessed from the mainland by a Twin Otter seaplane, just the beginning of a series of luxuries that Walker hopes will render this resort the best in Fiji.
In an interview with
The Australian, Walker admits that although “I’ve got my training wheels on a bit,” the property is set to become the most luxurious in its radius.
Aimed at guests from Australia, New Zealand, the US and Asia, the resort was originally under the clutches of
Amanresorts.
“The banks pulled the plug on the finance and it sat there for eight years,” Walker told the Australian, and he made this his opportunity to salvage the property.
Surrounded by the Great Astrolabe Reef, the resort in its current stage features five villas, each featuring four-to-five bedrooms. Formal and informal living rooms, a kitchen and a separate dining room facilitate the needs of each guests, as does the outdoor shower complete with timber deck.
