The Wakaya Club & Spa is comprised of ten free standing waterfront bures, including seven private Ocean View Bures, one private Garden View Bure, the Governor's Bure, Ambassador's Bure and the Vale O which is a royal suite.

Each bure is a luxurious hideaway located just steps from the Pacific Ocean.

A special bure called 'house in the clouds' is a 12,000 square foot luxury residence which belongs to the owners of the club.

The house, with its own fitness center and Cliffside swimming pool, can be rented when the owners are not on the island.
