Everything. Excellent service, in every way very well managed place with great eye for details and an atmosphere that makes it hard to leave. Our room was so comfy, cleaner than clean and beautifully decorated and furnished. The whole lodge is beautiful with lots of cozy places to relax. Restaurant for breakfast and dinner was great, everything we had during our 4 days was super delicious (also lots of yummy vegetarian options). There is no real beach but easy water access and lots of hammocks, chairs, lounges and sunbeds right by the sea overlooking beautiful turtle bay. Location was also a huge plus for us. Not too far from champagne beach, close to the blue holes and not too far from Luganville and the airport either. Having a rental car was great for us, but the lodge offers lots of tours, so it’s not a must have here. Finally the staff was just amazing, from housekeeping to restaurant/reception staff or the management itself - everyone was so friendly, helpful and did just a great job. This was not the most expensive place we stayed in in the south pacific region but by far the best so far. One of our favorite spots ever (and we do travel a lot all over the globe). Highly recommend!

Set in Luganville, Lope Lope Beach Bungalows offers accommodation with pool with a view, free WiFi and free private parking for guests who drive.

The place is heaven on earth. Both the location and the house itself are stunning. Plus Sue and James have taken care of ourselves as if we were family. If you’re looking for an exclusive place to stay, close to the blue holes and wonderful beaches, Lope lope is your choice.

The staff went out of their way to look after you. Kathy was great even doing our laundry. Whilst the property is a little out of town very easy to get a bus or taxi. Locally operated and great value for money.

Superb location right by the sea and close to town. Funky shipwreck right in front. Cool place to stay and super quiet.

We had an amazing time during our 5 night stay at Aore Island Resort. We booked a beach bungalow and could walk straight from our porch to the (coral) sea. Special compliments to the staff as the food was really tasty using local products (so many different ways to use coconut in dishes) and included for example lobster, lamb, ribs, sirloin steak and vegetarian pumpkin pasta. Also, the complementary evening entertainment was amazing (water dancers, kava tasting, local music & songs). Lastly, we also really enjoyed the free bikes to explore the island. Thanks a lot Lisa & Brad for sharing your beautiful Vanuatu paradise with us.

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.
