There is a nice rocky beach on site. I'm not sure it's possible to swim in it, but I enjoyed sitting in the garden looking at it.

The location, the staff were amazing very friendly. The pool area was great, but they did cut up the tiles on put 2nd last day, stopping us from using the pool. That okay, but if it was our 1st day??? Hope they would of let guest know this.

Our trip was a bit of a roller coaster , but overall we enjoyed our time there .
Highlights , 83 islands distillery tour was awesome . Mele beach bar great food , awesome staff and location and the fire show on Friday nights fantastic . Kids can swim at the beach , have a feed and watch the shoe -A+ . The markets were awesome as usual .
Low lights . We’ve been going to Vanuatu for over 20 yrs , and our recent trip to the cascades saddened us and emptied our wallets .
The current owners havnt maintained the place and the entry fee is extortion . The roads are next level knarly All 3 of our airport transfers were no shows which was disappointing but not the end of the world .
The people of Vanuatu are why we come back every time . They really are the friendliest people on earth .
Special shout out to Gideon and his family from Havanah eco lodge .
They treated us like family and we had a great time over there .

Port Villa is heaven on earth, I have been there 3 times and will always go back, with all the natural disasters this island goes through people are still so friendly and happy all the time, they live a simple life and always have a reason to smile, i strongly advise visiting the locals as it much better than staying in the resorts, the rivers , lagoons and beachs are surreal and its all so clean, the locals will always say hello and help you with anything you need.
There are plenty of taxis to go around, I would stay away from resorts for food and go into town as the resorts are extremely expensive and the town prices are so much cheaper.

Fresh food and souvenir markets were very well maintained.
Fresh food and souvenir markets were very well maintained. Indeed the waterfront esplanade area was attractive apart from the toilets behind the stage set up for MAC festival which had a $1.00 AU entry fee. Our trip on the coral viewing boat was worthwhile. The Museum was a great disappointment especially given the high entry fee and the seeming lack of curatorial care in presenting historical perspectives such as WW2 events and impacts of colonisation.

The local people were great: friendly, helpful and polite.
The local people were great: friendly, helpful and polite. There were good restaurants, particularly the Waterfront Bar and Grill. It was easy to get a taxi or bus on the street, but asking the hotel to get you a taxi may result in a long wait for their preferred driver to arrive.
We heard several stories from disappointed people who booked resorts where there was nothing to do and had ferry charges to get back to the mainland.

I NEED ERAKOR CONTACT ME BECAUSE FOR THE CYCLONES THE RESORT WAS DAMAGE WITH NOT WATER AND ELECTRICITY.
I PAYED BEFORE TRAVEL AND I NEED TO KNOW IF THEY GOING TO REFUND ME THE MONEY OR GIVE ME CREDIT.
PLEASE CONTACT ME AS SOON AS POSSIBLE!!
Location is very good for those who like to be away from town, away from noise (like me),
but you require a car or truck due to the distance from town.
The 3-bedroom apartment is clean and comfortable !
The place is very quiet.
Good place to stay when travelling with kids (or friends) as price is much cheaper than staying at a hotel.
The apartment is full furnished including washing machine / fridge & possibility to make BBQ on the terrasse.
Place was not easy to be found but we had a good welcome on arrival !
Exceptional staff all around, room was amazing, beds were so comfortable we wanted to take it home. House keeping were amazing, staff all around couldn’t do enough to help you they went above and beyond also organised our hire car when we got there, even one of the kitchen ladies braided my hair. Food was amazing!!!! Was in a perfect location and not far from Port Vila centre. Will definitely be stay here again every time we visit Vanuatu it’s like a home away from home!!!!
Great and affordable self contained accommodation with everything we required including prearranged car hire. For a small fee they even arranged to pick us up from the airport and all though our flight was delayed until midnight they were still there smiling and waiting for us. The property was clean, well maintained and in a convenient location. Thanks to the friendly staff for adding to the enjoyment of our stay.
Whispering palms is secluded paradise. Right on the beach with a reef in front for snorkelling and an easy drive to some beautiful local spots including Top Rock, Havannah and Moso. There is even a small convenience store about 5 mins walk to the south to pick up incidental items but it's best to get groceries in Port Vila first. Sylvie and the other team who look after the property are lovely.
We were in Vanuatu for 4 days, the hotel is a perfect place to stay in Port Vila very close to the city center and the beach, the staff of the hotel is so kind and perfect they help you for everything.
The food of the breakfast is delicious and cooked by William so good. I wanted to thank the person again for his kindness :)
The breakfast buffet was temporarily replaced by an a la carte menu (apparently due to the recent cyclones) however they would provide items not on the menu, if you asked. Were told by the hotel beforehand that hot water was not reliable (again, due to cyclones) but it was fine. Staff were typically excellent.
Being quite new and very modern the room were excellent, nice & clean, good aircon, only issue the family rooms being so far from the facilities.
The staff were extremely friendly, and Renata helped out so much with booking our tours.
The pool area was great with food and drinks easily available.
Wonderful experience, location, grounds and staff. The owners Mark and Constance are welcoming and have local knowledge to help you enjoy your stay.
I highly recommend this resort for your holiday in Vanuatu..I really can’t say enough about our stay, absolutely perfect
Location was great, easy access to port vila and airport! Description of accommodation was absolutely spot on!!
Access to kayaks was great!
Peaceful and quiet, didnt know there were other guests during the day.
Rooms clean and well provisioned.
Reception super helpful!
Everything was so well organized and everyone was really nice, we felt really welcome staying there.
Everything is accurately described and we got more than what we expected.
This was probably the best accommodation we had in the whole of Vanuatu.
The hotel entrance is great, the outlook to the lagoon is lovely and the pools and pool bar was good and is similar to what you would see in these type of resorts. Got the room at a discount so it was cheaper compared to other hotels in Vila.
Beth was a really kind host and very responsive including after my repeated emails with Air Vanuatu flight cancellations! The apartment was spacious, great kitchen, everything I needed. Good location, walkable to town or bus stop just outside
The food, especially the Tbone stake, was exceptional. The chef is definitely a 5 star chef.
The grounds staff and the security staff were the most friendly and helpful.
Cultural entertainment was good.
Great location, beautiful view, bathrooms were lovely. Our host organised a local lady to cook traditional food for us which we really enjoyed. 5 stars to her!
