Top Deck Mar 02

Located on the highest point of the 5- star Outrigger on the Lagoon Resort, the Bebe Butterfly Spa Sanctuary is a cocoon of tranquility offering sweeping views of the Fijian landscape and the South Pacific waters.

Treatments available include the Bobo massage, a uniquely Fijian style which involves fluid strokes with the hands, elbows and forearms using warm coconut oil. Exfoliation treatments include the Fresh Sugar Cane Body Glow using fresh local sugar cane crystals, virgin coconut oil and nut extracts while a full menu of facials features locally grown papaya, pineapple and coconut together with European products. A menu of five body wraps employs a thermal water capsule in which the guest is cocooned after warm essential oils have been applied while a Sabai Stone Therapy involves a massage with heated malachite and zincite stones after oils have been painted over the body. Four of the treatment rooms, contain sunken spa baths which overlook the reef, adding another level of luxury to treatments.
