Room with a view hotel ★★★★

📍 Rene Pujol, Port Vila

"Room Type: Deluxe Two-Bedroom Sea View Suite Review: I booked the Deluxe Two-Bedroom Sea View Suite for a family vacation with my parents and children. The balcony and bathtub were absolutely perfect for families! The room is 45 square meters, with a very spacious balcony and living room. The two king-size beds were incredibly comfortable. Every morning, opening the curtains revealed an endless sea view. My child was so happy on the balcony. I highly recommend this for families with kids!"

📍 Warwick Le Lagon Resort & Spa, Elluk Road, Off Kumul Highway, Erakor Lagoon, Port Vila

"This hotel has many entertainment activities, such as golf competitions and morning hikes, which are all organized by the entertainment department employees. There is also a children's club for those with children, where employees teach children how to make local cookies, and there are also all kinds of recreational facilities. Breakfast was very rich. There is a resident singer in the evening. Awesome~ Will come again next time!"

Le Life Resort
7.8 (27 reviews)

Le Life Resort ★★★

📍 Epule, Epule

"The people who run Le Life are the real highlight here. They are so friendly and welcoming - Nothing was a problem. The location is perfect for escaping it all and switching off. Swimming is amazing; you can snorkel to see coral and marine life. The bar is well stocked and the restaurant serves up some of the best food you'll eat in a resort in Vanuatu (#PROTIP - Order the Mauritian Curry, you won't regret it). Can't wait to come back!"

Tamanu on the Beach

"Highly recommend this report. Managers, Anthony and Fiona, were so warm and welcoming from the very first minute, as were the staff. I don’t think we can recall ever, in our many travels around the world, experiencing such friendly, warm, fun staff. Rooms were excellent, as was the personal plunge pool. Meals were generally excellent, with generous portions. This resort far exceeded our expectations. Well done!"

Waves at Surfside Hotels in Efate

Waves at Surfside

"Since the moment we stepped off the plane we have done nothing but smile, relax and be immersed in the beauty of this country. Waves at Surfside was a truely magical experIence, beach at the front door, falling to sleep with the sound of the waves crashing, own swimming pool and beautiful amenities. A big shout out and thank you to Katia and her thoughtful, kind staff. Katia booked all our jaw dropping tours! Zip lining, horse riding, snorkelling with turtles, visiting a neighbouring island learning about their culture, seeing beautiful lagoons and finishing with the fire show at the Beach Bar to name a few. Our tour guides were exceptional, knowledgeable and so friendly. Always on the look out how to make our time with them memorable. We loved how we were not treated as a number and were constantly thanked for coming to visit their country. We were also able to use the washing machine and cooking facilities which saved money but also dine out if we wished. If you are looking for a place to make memories look no further Waves at Surfside is your place. Thank you Jacquie, Richard and Helena"

Fatumaru Lodge

"The hotel's hygiene was pretty mediocre, and there were cockroaches in the room. I couldn't find a hairdryer, so I'm not sure if they even provide one. The only upside is that it's right by the sea; you can see the ocean as soon as you open the window."

South Pacific Memories Hotels in Efate

South Pacific Memories

"We spent 11 wonderful days at South Pacific Memories this past July. I can't say enough good things about this resort, it would take all day to write. The resort is very unique, only 4 bungalows and 8 guests at a time. The resort is situated approx. 7-8 km from of the city of Port Vila. The town can be reached by rental car if you have one or by taking the 1.5km walk to the bus stop. Anne and Petter (the owners) are on site all the time to look after your needs. Anne is the head chef, and Petter looks after the diving (Gone Diving PADI 5*). The staff are great. The bungalows are approx. 600sm in size, huge bedroom and sitting and a very large bathroom. A full width patio on the front facing the water and a full size roof top deck that has a shaded area as well as a sunny tanning area. The food was excellent, all prepared by Anne and her great staff. From breakfast to dinner (a 4 course meal) everything was superb. They even prepared a "take along" breakfast for us as our dive boat would pick us up at 7:30am. Thank you again Anne, Petter and staff for this being one of the best stays in all of our years of travel."

Tropicana Lagoon Apartments Hotels in Efate

Tropicana Lagoon Apartments

"I wouldn’t recommend this place. Was very disappointed. A pond arrival, the air conditioning was switched off! It was a hot and muggy evening. Disgusting. As a curiosity, they should have had the air conditioning switched on! During the day, the cleaner would go to my room and switch off the air conditioning. It should have been left on low, upon return, my room would be cool."

Trees and Fishes Private Retreat Hotels in Efate

Trees and Fishes Private Retreat

"The hotel is about a 40-minute drive from the city center and is not very large. It has its own beach and small pier. Guests can use canoes and SUPs for free; masks need to be rented. It's recommended to rent a car. The hotel charges 7000 VAT for a one-way trip to the city center, and 30,000 VAT for a full day's use with a driver. They don't give room keys; they say it's only for staff and guests, so there's nothing to worry about. Even our room door was difficult to close properly, so we just left it open. The food at the hotel wasn't very good. Breakfast was okay, but the penne pasta we ordered for lunch was extremely salty, and the fish burger for dinner had a bread as hard as a baguette. The pizza was okay, and the fries were good. The scenery is beautiful. We stayed for four nights, but lunch and dinner were the most inconvenient."

The Havannah Vanuatu - Exclusively for Adults Hotels in Efate

The Havannah Vanuatu - Exclusively for Adults

"We were very pleasantly surprised at what a stunning, island luxury, happy place the Havannah is. Better than all the reviews we had read. We had the Deluxe Water view Villa, with a stunning pool, large grounds, Daybed, private beach access, and our own BBQ outdoor dining space. It was very peaceful which was exactly what we wanted after a busy few months. Incidently, if you wanted a BBQ you only had to choose what you wanted from a menu and the chef would come to the villa and cook for you!! That is only half of it …… the Food was exquisite!! As it is a food and accommodation package, apart from the lengthy Breakfast menu, all 3 course, lunch and dinner menus changed everyday!! The food had a French/Vietnamese flair and delightful local seafood. Also has a good drinks menu. The staff have been well trained, a delight to converse with and love a joke. Very happy atmosphere. There is plenty to do either at the Havannah (snorkling trips, picnics on outer islands, sunset cruise, shuttle bus to Port Vila along with non powered water sports equipment, all included) as well as outside tours including diving. Oh, the airport and roads are third world, but once you get there you don’t think about that at all. We would go back in a heart beat. We have been to other “Top” resorts in the South Pacific and this one is our best!!"

MG Cocomo Resort Vanuatu Hotels in Efate

MG Cocomo Resort Vanuatu

"Staff were lovely. The resort is run down and nothing like what was advertised. No TVs worked, no bathrobes, no beach, not sound proof, spa was unusable, toiletries, bottled water, tea and coffee was not restocked, bins not emptied, ant trails and cockroaches, loud music and yelling from across the lagoon, holes in walls with wires hanging out, broken or missing light bulbs and major plumbing problems. The toilet backed up through the shower drain, no maintenance man available. Two days later our villa was flooded with raw sewage. Belongings that were not soak in sewage smelt like sewage. Chinese man, Alex, was just going to mop the floors. We were eventually moved, twice, first villa had cockroaches in the fridge and same plumbing problems, second move was to a mould apartment with an unusable shower. We slept in the clothes we were wearing as our belongings were scattered between three villas and the resort laundry. Management, Annie, was unsympathetic and unhelpful and we were offered a free meal. Our belongings were washed and given a full refund after constant complaining. The swipe cards also opened other apartments. Four rooms was the most we seen occupied at any one time. Why can this resort advertise what they are not offering? Going through previous reviews it has been like this for quiet awhile. Shame on the booking agents."

Kaiviti Motel Hotels in Efate

Kaiviti Motel

"Honestly, this was one of the cheapest we could find in Port Vila. It's a decent motel and most importantly it's clean. Ashlea is lovely and interacts with all her guests and addresses issues as they arise. In terms of value for money, it's hard to say because Port Vila is generally expensive so I'm not sure if I'd get a better place for the same price. If the price is right I'd stay again, but probably ask for a higher room as rooms at the bottom have no privacy at all. "

M Resort & Spa Hotels in Efate

M Resort & Spa

"The little nest egg that co-owner David and his team have at M Resort is clearly a diamond in the boutique accommodation options throughout Vanuatu. We stayed here for 4 nights, and when David, the live-action compendium, greeted us with a fresh cool towel and chilled coconut, his passion and enthusiasm for what he had created were evident.   He explained his resort, ("his" as a third co-creator and builder), the unique nature of where it is situated, on a protected reef, and what options were available to us as a family of four.  Nothing was pushed onto us, nothing was a sales pitch; it was just an education of what was there. We stayed in one of the three currently available villas, mere feet from the sand. A picturesque view of Lelepa island and the crystal clear water between. The island is also a day trip that is a must, seamlessly organised through David with one of the Lelepa village locals. The villa's main room has ample space to store your belongings, an ensuite and a built-in robe. The only drawback at the time was the lack of blackout curtains because getting changed in pitch-black darkness left it to anyone to guess if your pants were on the right way. It also means that when the sun is up,  you're up.   The second bedroom is also well sized, with plenty of space and a large bed, same again with the third bedroom, with two singles. Overall an abundance of space. Large main bathroom, for all your bathroom needs. There were a few differences between villas, as some had blinds, some didn't, some had appliances like ovens, and some didn't. These details are purely for context and in no way diminish the hard work David is evident putting in every day. The restaurant is open and available from 0730 through to 2100, and the staff are simply amazing.  It is quite obvious that some are new to hospitality/waiting, but their politeness, courtesy and consideration are the best we have experienced on our so far 8 days in Vanuatu. Even with the few extra things we asked of the staff, such as grinding up a coconut for sunburn and cutting up some market-bought pineapples, they did so without hesitation and with a smile.  Food is of great quality and optimal freshness. Sourced from the local village. A few items were forgotten from dishes occasionally, but it didn't take away from the freshness and flavour.  The grounds are maintained daily, and while some of it is missed, there is at least an effort. A tidy-up of the rubbish, specifically under the villas, will make a world of difference.  Shutting up the beautiful glass sliding doors at night is a must to slow the amount of moisture and residue and furnishings found in the morning.  I hope for the sake of sustainability these guys can work out a way to maintain the longevity of the property.  Considering its current new life, there are already signs of wear and tear by means of surface rust on finishes, and warping of wooden surfaces.  Some of the soft furnishings have a damp feel to th"

Room with a view hotel ★★★★
"The hotel is in a prime location with convenient transport. The service was great, the room was spotless and nicely decorated with modern furnishings, and the balcony offered a gorgeous view. The owner was very warm, welcoming, and quick to help us solve any problems. The Chinese food served at the hotel was also quite good. If you stay here and have any questions about getting around or sightseeing, you can always ask the owner, who is Chinese. Overall, it was a very comfortable stay, and I would definitely book here again next time."

Ramada Resort by Wyndham Port Vila ★★★★★
"The hotel was very clean and well-maintained. It even has its own pool and a sandy beach area, which was a pleasant surprise. What's more, there's a Chinese restaurant and a supermarket just a short walk from the hotel, which was really convenient. However, I noticed that we weren't offered a welcome drink upon check-in, even though other Caucasian guests seemed to receive one. I'm not sure if it was an oversight or for another reason. Aside from that, all the other services were great."

port vila airport hotel ★★
"It's within walking distance of the airport. The rooms are simple and lack a TV or refrigerator. Each room has a bathroom (cold shower only) and toilet. The staff are friendly, and WiFi is available. Recommended if you're looking for a cheap place to stay that's close to the airport."
