Popular Port Vila 4-star Hotels

The hotel has a private beach, free sailing and other sea activities The hotel is quite big. We brought it from the front desk to the cottage by car. It takes about ten minutes to walk. The service is great, the breakfast is ok, there are a lot of fresh fruits, you can eat enough Just to go out, if you are not driving yourself, you have to take a taxi. It ’s more expensive to take a taxi from this hotel. Other places in the city are 1000 watts. This hotel is almost 2000 watts. It's better to drive by yourself, but driving here is more casual. If you are not an old driver, please consider carefully!

Our check-in was somewhat a bit delayed due to no reservation. The gentleman who served us, Willie, was fantastic. He was able to accommodate us after looking into the booking and requested we discuss the matter with the reservations team the next day. After dealing with my booking agent very early the next morning, we were able to sort the issue out. Apart from the cigarette smell as soon as you enter the hotel lobby and the stench in the lifts, the hotel is perfectly situated in the main town with a couple minutes walk to the ever-bustling market. The room offers splendid views of the waterfront which was absolutely breath taking. I was very impressed with the room especially the cleanliness. If the hotel can somewhat separate the entrance to the hotel and the ****** from the hotel lobby, this will surely lift 'first impression' image of the hotel.

We stayed at the Warwick Le Lagon in July this year and had an amazing time. Our rooms were the Garden View rooms which we loved and would book again. The staff were so lovely and extremely helpful, especially Glenda, Ronald and Annie. We can't wait to come back to see you all. The food was lovely with a different theme every night. One of our family members is Vegan so Ramzy Shibany the Resort Manager made sure that a delicious vegan meal was prepared upon request which was very much appreciated. The water sports area was great, with kayaks, canoes, little catamarans and snorkels, so we got to explore the beautiful lagoon and its many wonders. We couldn't have asked for a more enjoyable family holiday and we can't wait to come back again. The Fontana's

Service is very warm, very good!

We just finished a stay at mangoes resort and unfortunately it was not at all what is advertised. The property itself is quite rundown from the rooms to the pools. There was mold through the bathroom in both rooms we stayed in, and the air conditioner did not work in the second room as it was too old yet, the owner still tried to charge us a higher rate to use the room. The TV hard drive does not work either and froze the whole TV in the two rooms after just 5 minutes into using it, which was extremely frustrating and there were only 4 channels that worked. The shower also flooded to our ankles on the first night and the maintenance worker pulled out big clumps of hair the next day which was disgusting considering that flooded up all over us while showering. On the last night there were also bugs through the bed and my wife and I woke up with bites around our ankles. We were very relieved to leave mangoes resort and will not be returning as we couldn't even enjoy the space knowing how dirty it was. Also their taxi prices outside are extremely overpriced so don't be fooled like we were when you can pay just 2500 vato to get to hideaway Island by taxi instead of 8000 vato. I hope this helps others who are also expecting a resort experience as the name would suggest. Their instagram photos are quite misleading also, the pools were rusted especially the pool with the mini waterfall, given the state of the resort we did not feel comfortable swimming. The staff were the only upside as they tried to help us but their hands were tied as the owners did not show much concern around the issues we faced and instead tried to make excuses such as telling us all hotels in Vanuatu have mold due to the weather which is not true. We just wish a review like this existed before we wasted money staying at this accommodation.

We just ended our stay of 9 days here. The location of the resort is great and the views are sensational. Staff are friendly, but the price and the fact that the place needs a huge make over were a bit of a disappointment. Our room was lovely though and we had the best reviews. There are 2 restaurants on site that are a great convenience and a local shop to get drinks, snacks and those little things you might need. The food is nice enough but is extremely overpriced as is everything for some reason. Be prepared as a couple to spend easily over $200 each night for dinner (just a main and drinks). The pool was nice but the grounds needed a cleanup there were broken lights around the pool area and a terrible stain in the pool that was a bit off putting. The views from the site are something else though and made up for the things that need fixing. The resort is for sale and it feels like it’s been given up on, to be honest it needs some TLC, especially for the prices that they are asking. I wouldn’t rate it a 4 star resort in the state it’s currently in.

Overall it feels good. The hotel is on the edge of the lagoon and the view is very good. The service staff is very friendly. The room is relatively large, but ants have been seen by the door on the wall. It takes about 10 minutes by car to reach the city center from the hotel.

I decided to book this place because it was close to town and what seemed like a very nice clean modern..ish place to base ourselves...well from the photos anyway. Port Vila is HOT, so for me check in needed to be efficient. I totally understand the concept of island time but come on, we were melting standing at reception waiting for them to get things in order. Our room was a one bedroom apartment which wasnt up to my expectations (Im not high maintenance either). We over looked the once was pier which was a shame. (They should update the pics) the bathroom was very small, and the kitchen was not exactly what I imaged, hence why they hardly have any pics of it. The bedroom and view where ok. Just the afternoon view was an absolute stinger. Next door was The Banyan Bar...nice spot for an arvo drink and Pizza, but make sute they dont charge you twice. We ordered drinks and pizza then decided to take our pizza to the room. Upon check out they charged us for the pizza...dont think so! We told them that this had happened to the couple before us...the left hand doesnt see what the right hand is doing. We checked out early because it just wasn't us and headed for the Ramada for some luxury. Would I stay here again..unfortunately thats a no from me. Would I recommend it..not for 7 days, maybe 2 or 3.

We stayed here our first three nights after arriving in Port Vila and LOVED it. Highly recommend paying the bit extra to have a waterfront bungalow - we had #6 (two bedrooms) I think and it was just heaven having the water lapping just 15 steps out from the back sliding door. Location was so peaceful and about 5 drive into the centre of Port Vila. The bungalow itself is quite basic but very clean and a great hot shower, tv, lovely table and chairs at the back overlooking the lagoon, and temperamental wi-fi which worked better by the pool area. There was everything we needed in the kitchen (including microwave and coffee mocha!) to be able to self-cater which is handy where food and eating out in Vanuatu is pricey. You are a mini-bus taxi ride away from supermarket/Port Vila town centre so worthwhile picking up essentials such as drinks, beer, milk on way there if possible, to tide you over until you can do a bigger supermarket trip. (Note that supermarkets stop selling alcohol in Vanuatu from 11am Saturday through to Monday morning.) Manager, Chris, was incredibly helpful to us and helped make our stay very enjoyable. We went to Three Pigs restaurant (1km) our first night and second night when we had a car we drove to a Thai restaurant Chris had recommended. The pool is inviting but quite small and was cold whilst we were there, but there are kayaks to borrow and all sorts of snorkelling gear, reef shoes etc that we didn't need but could be handy. This really was a lovely place to begin our hols, enjoy the lagoon views and slide into the island vibe.

We booked this room in may 2019 I explained it was my hubby birthday and we needed a quite room as we don't sleep well, I then emailed once again a few days before arrival to remind of quite room. We arrived and our room backed right on to the tennis court (couldn't of got closer unless you were playing) when we saw the room it over looked the swimming pool from holiday inn also entertainment area, the lady from reception was with us, so I mentioned it was very loud as the holiday inn had music playing, I told her I was concerned about the position she said we are not full if there is a problem maybe we can look at move, but she knew I wasn't happy with room and position. That night was so loud Saturday night music playing till gone 12pm the neibours running upstairs at 2 am then cleaners at 8 am. That was our first night. Veiws amazing rooms tired and dirty, people seemed happy booking just 3 nights I wish we would have of done this. We were here for 7 nights, we had 3 changes of neibours 2 of which were smokers we booked non smoking room. Work men dumped rubble daiky at tge end of the pool when we were trying to swim and relax. We did speak to reception. Last day we were in the middle of a few people in other rooms so was really loud, the hotel advised us not to be tg a bus to airport so booked us their taxi for 11am, 11.20 staff said taxi was busy so sending a bus but same price as taxi???? buses are so much cheaper. So we ended up going airport 30 min late on a bus for the price of a cab. Not impressed and will never stay again. If you are booking only stay 3 nights max.
