Chalet was lovely

Staff were lovely and upgraded us to the Chalet. Perfect for our 20th wedding anniversary. Lovely, quiet location. Lovely bathroom. Good location close to shops and town but far enough to be lovely and quiet. Enjoyed using the kayak one day. Ian and Oli are fantastic staff. We'd love to come and stay in their larger rooms when we return with our kids next time.

Lovely staff good location

The hotel is about a 15 min walk from the centre of Port Vila which suited us as we like to walk, but may not suit families with very small/young children. The staff at the hotel and friendly informative and very helpful. There is a large supermarket approx 5 mins walking distance from the hotel. The hotel itself is a little dated however has all the amenities in the room- fridge, coffee making facilities and stove (including pots cutlery plates etc).

Thanks for your comments Sandra. Many guests like the fact that it is a short walk to town, but we are in a quiet location on the Lagoon.

Pros: The owners are truly nice, very clean.
Cons: Sort of far from everything, not the best value, but they really try hard and they are the nicest hotel owners ...
A good place to start your Vanuatu journey, but not the best for swimming... VERY SAFE
