Sheraton Nadi Fiji

Revitalising the grounds of a cherished retreat

Commissioned to evaluate & identify areas for improvement, Scape’s vision was translated into detailed proposals for the idyllically set external areas.

Whilst creating the Porte Cochere, gardens and accommodation blocks – Scape’s focal point for the resort’s refurbishment is the dramatic 1,200sqm swimming lagoon. The new pool offers shaded enclaves, a walk-in beach edge and a swim-up bar whilst offering submerged reclining water beds. Nestled on a breath taking stretch of beachfront on Denarau Island, Fiji, this 1970s-styled Sheraton resort village is set within 25 acres of lush tropical grounds.
