Villa Savu Savu

fiji

This villa has a master suite attached to the main house and smaller bures spread around the base of the hill for other guests.

It was constructed by locals using traditional Fijian materials and techniques. The roofs are made from locally sourced timbers bound together at steep angles. 

The decks, balustrades and screens are natural in appearance and unrefined in character, sympathetic in scale and style to the main timber structure.

Cyclone safety and extreme wet weather were taken into consideration in the design.

The wet edge pool falls to the backdrop of an enormous existing tree.
