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.

We recently stayed at Nasama for the first few days of our trip to Vanuatu. The location was great being a little further out of town, but easy to get into town if needed. We only went to town to buy supplies while we were there. It’s also a short walk to other resorts if you feel like mixing it up for dinner or lunch. The snorkelling right by the resort was great, and the pool was great as well. We were lucky to get a beach side apartment with a great view and lots of privacy. Was a great start to our trip.
This villa is really well located for a short walk to the main street in Port Vila. Upon arrival, there was a note for me directing me to my room with the key in the door so I let myself into my bungalow and then went out to explore. The room was cozy, had a mosquito net and was clean. The a/c was extra so I didn't bother with it and the evening cooled down enough that it wasnt' really needed with the fans on in the bungalow. Pool was clean and refreshing after returning from a wander around town.
The accommodation is very easy to approach and can move all over Port Vila very easily. The owner of Dwellery and her family is amazing and they let you feel at home. It was fabulous experience staying at Janessa's Dwellery. The place is not a luxury place but hospitality and support for all the things is exceptional. The staff guides very nicely to arrange tours on your own. Highly recommended place to stay. Last but not least the breakfast is also satisfying.
The Mariner is an exceptional property in Port Vila. While it may not have the swim up bar, it has incredible views, beautiful, friendly staff and a comfortable location to town. Lovely reasonably priced restaurants are a stones throw away. The apartment we stayed in is fabulous for families, in that it has two bathrooms, a fully equipped kitchen that allowed home cooked meals and a full laundry. The pool was a fun addition.
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.
This place is one of the most special places I've ever stayed due to the wonderful staff who work hard everyday to make you feel welcomed. From Nunez on reception to Alice and the boys on the floor to the kitchen staff everybody was just delightful to talk to. The staff make this place the most wonderful stay one could ever imagine. We were even taught some Bislama. A MUST do if you are in Vanuatu.
The apartments are exactly as described here so no surprises when we arrived. Most importantly Beth has been a lifesaver when our plans in Vanuatu have changed multiple times courtesy of Air Vanuatu. She has been very flexible so we did not have to look for a room elsewhere in Port Vila. Overall we enjoyed our stay at Coral motel and of course meeting Beth and the rest of the staff.
The owner family of the property made me very welcome and became like family to me. They included me in local expatriate (European) life and activities. They made my 70th birthday about the best birthday that I have had, with their generosity and company. They brought single backpacker guests together and that made for the highlight of the trip to Vanuatu.
Amazing service. Petter and Anne are so wonderful and the staff was friendly and accommodating as well. The food is INCREDIBLE -- the best food we had in Vanuatu, by far. The property is lovely and comfortable. The shower pressure and hot water was perfect every time. The views are spectacular and the dives were great. Can't recommend enough!!
Everything was great at Pacific Lagoon apartments, we loved our stay and wish we had stayed longer. The staff were amazing so friendly and knowledgeable about Vanuatu places to go and visit. My son asked a lot of questions and they were happy to answer and spend time with him! Loved the bathroom and the shell feature area it was beautiful!
-the Melanesian is a short walk to the city centre, very close to the pain street, market, museum, restaurants
-comfortable rooms and bed
-our room has double access, once facing the pool and one facing the back corridor which was convenient
-good room service for dining
-very attentive front desk staff
Location was perfect. The secenic sunsets and good happy hour prices. Rooms and beds were very comfortable. Walking distance to Port Vila city area with lots of eating options nearby. Pool was probably the best in the area and always clean. The deck around the prooperty gave it a real relaxing feeling.
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.
Location was great--just up the hill from the beach and a short walk into town. It was also just up the hill from Moorings Hotel where I had stayed earlier with a tour group so I knew I could hang out there and use their wifi because Room with a View had zero wifi.
Beautiful ocean views from the Panoramic Suite.
Staff were generally friendly and house keeping was done daily.
Located in the heart of Port Vila (approx 15 minutes drive from airport).
Shops/Markets are near by and you are never short of public transport.
The location was very accessible to all..the place was quite,comfy feel like real home for me..Beth and staffs are very helpful and nice..i love the place and my room..thank you wo much Beth for dropping me to the airport..see you soon..
For me, the location was second to none! Given that I was merely transiting in Port Vila, I needed something close to the airport. Janessa's Dwellery was clean, well priced and the staff were wonderful.
