Vanuatu Beachfront Apartments

Positive experience Other than the condition being “tired”, and ideally in need of renovation, esp bathroom, stay was comfortable and pleasant. Really beautiful staff

The perfect location for a family getaway! We travelled as 4 adults and 2 kids and stayed in the penthouse apartment and it was perfect. The apartment has 4 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms and plenty of living area, inside and out, with a big verandah that overlooks the pool and Mele Bay. Everything you need is there including the washing machine. Breakfast is on the front deck next to the beach and pool with a variety of choice. The beach is long and great for kids with easy swimming or kayaking. It’s easy to get transport into town either from Keril or a bus just up the road. Walking distance to the Beach Bar for the famous Fire and/or Circus show and Tanna coffee. Just over the bay from Hideaway Island which has great snorkelling. A very relaxed and friendly little, family resort with the staff being some of the best we have met on many trips to Vanuatu. This was a second stay for the grandparents of the group and we were welcomed like old friends. Keril picked us up at the airport and took us wherever we wanted to go. He is a gentleman and so obliging. I hope we get to see you all again next year.

great spot in Vanuatu, great owners, great stuff, great location! very nice clean rooms rooms, very friendly stuff, nice swimming pool. owners are exceptional - after the earthquake, they help local villages (for example to supply water), their support is outstanding. staying there feels like you are part of it & helping those beatiful people, which is a great feeling. definetely recommended, 11/10!

This really is a great place to stay in Efate. A beautiful, quiet, sandy beach stretches in both directions and the water is very safe for swimming. Only a few minutes walk to the Beach Bar (good for dinner, Friday fire show and Sunday circus), and the snorkelling on Hideaway Island is well worth the 2000 vat island fee. Tanna Coffee is only about 30 walk up the beach, good for coffee and a meal or snack. We bought tasty pawpaws and local cakes from nearby shops and roadside stalls. Easy to catch one of the local busses to town (300 vat). Our unit was beside the deck, where we ate breakfast and dinner, and had a beer while the sun set. Comfortable and clean room. Bus on site for airport transfers and tours.

We opted to stay here after a week in Port Vila for quick and easy access to Hideaway Island for Snorkelling. The location was stunning, right on the beach with the most fantastic sunsets each evening. The locals use the beach regularly and it was lovely to see the kids and families playing and having fun in the sea. The studio apartment was fantastic, large double bed which was very comfy, sofa bed, kitchen facilities and good sized bathroom all overlooking the pool area. Air con worked great, keeping the large room cool. The price included free breakfast with lots of options (toast, yogurt, cereal etc) and lunch and dinner was also available at the resort which was great and very good value. The cocktails were the best and cheapest we had tried in Vanuatu! You can also purchase basics such as milk, break etc at the resort which is extremely handy to avoid having to go into Port Vila. Just up along the beach from the apartments is Mele Beach bar which offers more food and drink options. Over the weekends they put on a fire show which we really enjoyed but book a table as it is very popular (table 2 was our favourite table as it was directly under a fan which was needed in the hot weather). The staff were fantastic, extremely helpful and friendly. This is a little gem of a place and we will definitely be back!

Before our arrival here we read few reviews and decided this might be the right place to stay. Our experience goes far beyond our expectation. This little hotel is run by the kindest staff on Earth. Juliette is the leader of the team which is discrete, polite and efficient. At check-in she provided us the room upgrade because of the minor issue with the celling fan. She give us a little Christmas tree to decorate saying simply "It's Christmas time". She gave us her phone to place important calls abroad. Whatever we asked for, Juliette and her team accomplished instantly. If you add to this that the hotel is located in a beautiful and calm Mele bay, that we shared the beach with only few other guests, we can resume the whole experience in one word: perfect! If there is a downside aspect of this stay than we would mention the accses road which is in a pretty bad condition. Also, ordering breakfast is little confusing because you get the basics (coffee, toast jam, cereals) for free, but all the extras (eggs, ssusage etc.), we had to pay.
