Celebrating Architectural Excellence. The Reef House Wins Prestigious Award
We are thrilled to announce that The Reef House has been recognised for its architectural brilliance with the coveted Architectural Design Residence award. This accolade highlights the exemplary design and visionary architecture we’ve been fortunate to add to our luxury private island accommodation collection.
A testament to design and innovation
Designed by the acclaimed Architecture Building Culture under the leadership of Mark Ritchie, The Reef House is a masterpiece that seamlessly blends with Vomo Island’s breathtaking landscape. The project team, including Samuel Orr, Marisa Daluro, and Oliver Ganske has brought to life a vision of elegance and serenity that honours the natural beauty of its setting.
With Mark Ritchie at the helm, an architect renowned for his contributions to the field, and his affiliations with AIBC, MRAIC, and ANZIA, The Reef House stands as a beautiful example of architectural innovation. The interiors reflect a deep respect for the locale’s cultural and environmental context.
Indoor elegance meets outdoor splendour
Nestled on the northern shore of Vomo Island, The Reef House boasts five luxurious bedroom suites adjacent to the main pavilion or ‘long house.’ This architectural marvel is designed to focus on connectivity and interaction with the environment, featuring retractable glass doors and lofted wooden ceilings that merge indoor elegance with outdoor splendour.
The Reef House’s event space is the centrepiece and acts as the heart of the residence. A wooden slatted curtain unveils a panorama of the patio, pool, gardens, and the ocean beyond, encapsulating the essence of tranquillity and subtle island luxury. The bedroom suites serve as private sanctuaries with stone-clad courtyards and water gardens that enrich the space with natural light and serenity.
A diverse retreat for every guest
The Reef House provides many spaces for guests, from secluded nooks for peace and relaxation to adaptable areas for social gatherings. Its design prioritises a connection to nature and reverence for the regional characteristics of Fiji, offering an unparalleled retreat experience.
The award for The Reef House is not just a recognition of architectural excellence but a celebration of the harmony between human creativity and the natural world. We invite you to experience this architectural gem, a testament to the beauty and spirit of Vomo Island Resort.
