Popular Efate 4-star Hotels

We visited this resort for the day to see if this would suit us for our next holiday. The resort is in a perfect location about 20 mins bus ride from Port Vila. It is located on a beautiful beach with great snorkeling right off the beach. It is in a quieter rural location that would suit visitors looking for a beach getaway. We got to view one of the fares and it was a quaint island style room with ceiling fans and the one we viewed also had air conditioning. It would be perfect for us and I loved the charm of it. The restaurant was an open style area that had a lovely breeze going through even though it was a very hot sunny day, We ordered the fish burger for lunch and it was honestly the BEST fish burger I’ve ever had! It was absolutely delicious and compliments to their amazing chef! Rob the manager was very friendly and a pleasure to meet, we enjoyed his company when he had the chance to sit down and mingle with the guests. Overall we thoroughly enjoyed our day relaxing, swimming and snorkeling at the resort and I can’t wait for our next Vanuatu holiday at this resort!

Spent one month at Nasama resort and had a wonderful experience throughout, the friendly staff definitely helped make that happen. My room was spacious (really nice big bed), clean and comfortable with a lovely outdoor area viewing over the pool and beach. I did have one small problem with my wardrobe door one day but Gigi from the maintenance team swiftly came over and sorted it for me with a big smile on his face. I was also lucky enough to come across a dugong whilst out for a swim in the sea right in front of the resort one day, it was absolutely incredible!! Chef Ronnie at Cafe Vila restaurant delivers exceptional dishes for breakfast and dinner whilst the restaurant itself offers a relaxed ambience and good service. Three Pigs restaurant provides great food at a reasonable price in a cool bar like atmosphere. They also makes really nice drinks!! I miss my stay at Nasama and hope to be able to visit sometime again in the future.

Overall it feels good. The hotel is on the edge of the lagoon and the view is very good. The service staff is very friendly. The room is relatively large, but ants have been seen by the door on the wall. It takes about 10 minutes by car to reach the city center from the hotel.

I decided to book this place because it was close to town and what seemed like a very nice clean modern..ish place to base ourselves...well from the photos anyway. Port Vila is HOT, so for me check in needed to be efficient. I totally understand the concept of island time but come on, we were melting standing at reception waiting for them to get things in order. Our room was a one bedroom apartment which wasnt up to my expectations (Im not high maintenance either). We over looked the once was pier which was a shame. (They should update the pics) the bathroom was very small, and the kitchen was not exactly what I imaged, hence why they hardly have any pics of it. The bedroom and view where ok. Just the afternoon view was an absolute stinger. Next door was The Banyan Bar...nice spot for an arvo drink and Pizza, but make sute they dont charge you twice. We ordered drinks and pizza then decided to take our pizza to the room. Upon check out they charged us for the pizza...dont think so! We told them that this had happened to the couple before us...the left hand doesnt see what the right hand is doing. We checked out early because it just wasn't us and headed for the Ramada for some luxury. Would I stay here again..unfortunately thats a no from me. Would I recommend it..not for 7 days, maybe 2 or 3.

We have just returned from Eratap Vanuatu yesterday and cannot express how much we enjoyed it and loved our holiday there. When holidaying we want to snorkel, have good food (with variety) and preferably a gym (to both keep fit and to give us an alternative if the weather turns bad). The trip to Eratap ticked all these boxes and more. It is also not that far to fly from Brisbane, and we didn’t have to travel that far to the resort from the airport. We swam daily with the most vibrant coral straight of the beach and for variety the resort had two boats which it used to transport guests as desired to many other reefs around the resort. Eratap is a fantastic place to snorkel. Usually when we travel, my husband has options on the menu’s but for me only eating white meat or vegetarian, it is often a struggle to get variety. I had no trouble this trip and had the best food options I have had at any trip to date. Adding to that, both my husband and I found the food high quality (most meals). Hats off to the chef and thank you. Eratap have a very well-equipped gym for a resort gym. It is amazing to be able to get this at a resort of its size. At Eratap we had the facilities of a big resort, with the benefit of a smaller resort so there was no overcrowding. I had a heavenly massage and heavenly is an understatement. The resort offered several events or local experiences throughout our stay. We found the fire show a spectacular way to spend one of our evenings. It was amazing and kept us glued to the show. The people of Vanuatu are lovely in particular at the resort. They are gracious and truly appreciative of guests returning (post COVID shut down). We especially want to mention Mary-Anne and Caroline who attended to our room daily and were such lovely ladies. Adding to this was the Manager Pascale who fixed any issue (not that we had many) with ease and ensured all guests were happy. There didn’t seem to be anything that was to much for her, even when we had an issue in town (which had nothing to do with the resort) she was quick to help and find a solution. The resort is lucky to have her, and she is an asset to the resort. We also want to acknowledge both Mac and Pablo who took us out to the various reef’s daily. Overall, my husband and I would struggle to find a negative thing to say about this resort. The only thing we would change is staying longer. We had the best time. I would recommend this to anyone, who enjoys snorkeling, having an island escape or just looking to totally relax. We cannot wait to return and do it all again next year.

We picked Erakor Island Resort for our secret elopement. We wanted a low fuss wedding and relaxing stay and Erakor handled everything and offered a great package. Beautiful location, wonderful staff, plenty of activities, great food, awesome room, I can't fault it. The fact that you basically have this whole island to yourself (and other guests) is so cool. Don't be daunted by the ferry, it's so easy to get to and from the mainland and the staff will take good care of you mo matter where you want to go. We travelled just after Vanuatu reopened to tourists and realised we had struck gold after speaking to other travellers. We met SO many people who were either staying at other locations and switched to Erakor because they weren't happy with their previous hotel, or were staying at another place and travelling to Erakor every day for the restaurant because their hotel didn't offer good food. When we arrive, the country's tourism industry seemed to be on a soft restart, which is completely understandable given it was shut down for a number of years, but you'd never know it with Erakor. They were back up and ready to go as if they never stopped operating. Getting married there was a dream and Erakor will forever be close to our hearts and part of our story. 100% going back!
