Stuart helped arrange our airport transfer and boat taxi. Bani dropped us at our own beach outside the house and Rebecca met us with a big smile and showed us around the house. The house is well stocked. We are a cooking family and was great to have sharp knives and a good range of kitchen equipment. Bani took us to the market for fresh fish and grocery's. Well worth it. A well positioned base to see the sights with a great dive operator a few doors down.

Set on a private and secluded tropical island, this beachfront resort offers guests free ferry transfers to and from Espiritu Santo.

From the moment we were met at the airport to the personal farewell from the owners, our stay at Aore Island Resort could not be faulted in any way. The location is perfect paradise. The staff friendly and attentive. The food was excellent with a varied menu. Snorkelling in the clear waters directly outside our fare was exceptional.

Featuring sea views, Island View Cottages offers accommodation with a private beach area, water sports facilities and a garden, around 80 metres from SS President Coolidge.

Fantastic experience in a beautiful location What a beautiful place to unwind. It felt like we had our own private waterfront where we could swim or snorkel while exploring the stunning coral reef. I couldn't believe how crystal clear the water was and what a perfect temperature it was. If we weren't in the water there was a lovely sheltered deck where we could sit and have drinks or eat while looking at the beautiful water views. Alternatively we could explore the gorgeous rain forests on the island without having to worry about snakes like we do in Australia. Our hosts were so friendly and accommodating. Lovely people who made us feel so welcome. We loved the bungalow we stayed in. We can't wait to come back although we will have to wait a few months as they are booked out for a bit.

Set on 1 acre with views over the beautiful Segond Channel, this lodge features a restaurant, massage hut and infinity swimming pool.

Service was exceptional. As we were on a late flight in, they even left chicken salad rolls in our room in case we were hungry.

Our stay at the freshwater Plantation farm stay was absolutely amazing! The bungallow is so beautiful, it is situated directly on the beach and has an amazing sea view. They also have a super nice restaurant, with delicious meals (breakfast, lunch and dinner). Try the chicken Parmiggiana! We really enjoyed the evenings with Vini and Klaas, to talk about interesting topics by a glass of wine. We did the diving at the coolidge, while we stayed at their accommodation and they drove us every time and picked us up. We also went snorkelling, right in front of the bungallow and the reef is pretty decent (we even saw morey eels and lion fish). It grows back slowly after the cyclone.

Featuring a private beach area, garden and views of sea, Matevulu Lodge is located in Luganville, 24 km from SS President Coolidge.

Had a lovely few days here. Felt very relaxed in the beach huts right on the beach, with some snorkelling and exploring the lagoon. The host is really nice and helpful, planning lots of trips for us (scuba diving, daytrips, transfers etc) and great local knowledge. The kitchen facilities are really good for self catering, and the breakfast was fresh (especially loved the pancakes one day!). The water is also safe to drink. The showers have hot water too, the WiFi was very fast, and reliable charging facilities. The location is perfect for visiting the blue holes easily (all 1000vt entrance). They have kayaks and SUPs to use. For Riri Hole (my favourite), it was amazing to paddleboard up the super clear river to the blue hole. And for Matevulu Hole it was only a 25 minute walk from the lodge. Transfer from the airport costs 3500vt total, but includes a stop at the supermarket for supplies (it’s difficult otherwise!) and SIM cards. Get cash out at the ATMs in Santo Airport. Overall a really great option for a short tropical escape whilst also experiencing lots of stunning attractions nearby. Thanks so much to the team!
