Top 5-Star Hotels in Port Vila

Probably one of the swishest gaffs on the island. Decent buffet breakfast...nicely appointed rooms...quiet and away from everything. Shame the lagoon is so polluted (not (exclusively) this hotel's fault to be fair) that no one can swim in it. Good Sports bar.

The hotel is on the island, the room size is acceptable, the health is good, the hotel service is very poor, such as cleaning the shampoo area in the room during the day, returning to the reception desk at night to reflect, promised to send, no one to send in the morning, buffet breakfast variety is small, The two people spent about 150 Australian dollars for the buffet dinner. There were few varieties, especially pit people, and they asked for an hour late check-out at the front desk. They needed to pay separately and were too inhumane. The island environment is acceptable, there is a swimming pool, the beach is particularly small and poor, the hotel price is outrageous, not worth recommending

We stayed for 12 nights for a special family celebration. 7 adults and 1 child. We had an amazing stay. It is in quite a remote location but is right on the beach which was pretty special. It is windy all the time but I think that helps to keep the temperature down - we were not uncomfortably hot at any time. I recommend getting a pool villa - they are so good! Restaurant is excellent - quite a substantial menu and also a blackboard menu but nothing changed much on that in 12 days. Chefs are very flexible with leaving items out or adding items in to dishes. Fire show on the beach was very enjoyable. We all had at least one spa visit each and everyone was happy with their treatment. We did every day trip on offer and enjoyed them all. We ventured out quite a few times, for sightseeing and for a few meals. We went in a Tamanu van each time, with one of their drivers, highly recommend this. Cannot remember the price but it was worth it. The road in is pretty rough but I think it was due to be graded the week we left. Staff are all lovely and super friendly. We did lots of beach walking. There is a nice little bay not far up where we had a nice swim. There is also a good little pizza place a short walk along the beach, which is only open on Weekends but has a beach volleyball court and shaded areas to sit and look at the view - it is called Sol Wata Beach Club. Eva and Fiona helped us a lot with any queries we had. The gardens and grounds were immaculate. We would be very happy to stay here again. One thing all of us girls would have loved would be if they had a second wardrobe in the rooms (there is room) - the existing one does not hold maxi dresses and is not big enough for 2 peoples clothes.

I stayed at Tropicana for 2 weeks with a friend and my two children ( 2 year old and a 7 month old). SERVICE - The staff are absolutely amazing. They went above and beyond to make sure we were comfortable right from the get go. I made a mistake and booked the wrong room (the smaller one) and they managed to get another bed into our room. The staff took our luggage and children up the stairs for us. They also would bring dinner to our room if our children were sleeping or didn't want to come down. I had great conversations with some of the staff and really got to know them. When our bus broke down, the manager called one of their own drivers for us. They were all so happy and friendly! Not a single complaint with the service. CLEANLINESS - Our room was very tidy and was serviced every day. The hardwood floor and balcony was swept, towels replaced, rubbish taken out, dishes done and beds made every single day. The house keeper offered to do our laundry and we received it back the next day as well. We had no issues with mosquitos, there were a few lizards on the roof outside but that was a non-issue. The grounds were clean, everyday we saw men working to keep the place tidy and presentable. SPACE - We had a beach front apartment (Room 11) which was located upstairs. The room had enough room for us to walk around while the toddler was playing. It also had a baby cot, double bed and single bed as well so I feel the room was very spacious. There was a large wardrobe with coat hangers and shelving we we could fit all of our suitcases and bags. There was a small table with 2 chairs and a couch that seated 3 people. The balcony was large with another table and 2 chairs. There was an air conditioning unit that was quite powerful and cooled our room right down in minutes as well as a ceiling fan. There was a flat screen tv. In the kitchen we had a microwave, toaster, kettle, gas stove with 2 elements, small fridge and plenty of cupboard and bench space. SECURITY - We felt very safe at Tropicana. There is a safe in the wardrobe where we kept our passports. They also have a security guard stay onsite overnight. BEDDING - Very comfortable, my children slept all night which never usually happens. Me and my friend had comfortable sleeps every night. NOISE - Some nights we could hear dogs barking from across the lagoon but it was faint enough to not disturb us. No traffic noise as Tropicana is situated down a long driveway away from the road. LOCATION - About a 10 minute drive from Port Vila township, 15 minutes from the airport. Just down the road from the supermarket and ATM. PRICE - Definitely worth the price. Affordable. FOOD - The chefs make amazing meals. Best beef burger I have ever had. So full of flavour and very big servings. GENERAL - Tropicana has a small pool which starts shallow and then gets very deep at one end. There were 2 kayaks and a stand-up paddle board for guests to use. There is a man-made beach which was a nice place to rela

We stayed at 5 different Resorts in Port Vila Vanuatu and this was by far our favourite! Immediately when arriving in the lobby you will be wowed, the location and resort is incredible. The staff are so friendly and the food is fantastic. There are so many on-site facilities and water equipment to take advantage of and the Lagoon is a great place to swim or even take a boat ride through. We didn't want to leave, this place is definitely a little haven and wr are 100% staying here next time we're back in Poet Vila. Thank you Warwick Le Lagoon, you are SUPERB to say the least, love how much the people here really value the guests. You feel appreciated and welcome here and it's great 👍 😁

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!

We stayed here our first three nights after arriving in Port Vila and LOVED it. Highly recommend paying the bit extra to have a waterfront bungalow - we had #6 (two bedrooms) I think and it was just heaven having the water lapping just 15 steps out from the back sliding door. Location was so peaceful and about 5 drive into the centre of Port Vila. The bungalow itself is quite basic but very clean and a great hot shower, tv, lovely table and chairs at the back overlooking the lagoon, and temperamental wi-fi which worked better by the pool area. There was everything we needed in the kitchen (including microwave and coffee mocha!) to be able to self-cater which is handy where food and eating out in Vanuatu is pricey. You are a mini-bus taxi ride away from supermarket/Port Vila town centre so worthwhile picking up essentials such as drinks, beer, milk on way there if possible, to tide you over until you can do a bigger supermarket trip. (Note that supermarkets stop selling alcohol in Vanuatu from 11am Saturday through to Monday morning.) Manager, Chris, was incredibly helpful to us and helped make our stay very enjoyable. We went to Three Pigs restaurant (1km) our first night and second night when we had a car we drove to a Thai restaurant Chris had recommended. The pool is inviting but quite small and was cold whilst we were there, but there are kayaks to borrow and all sorts of snorkelling gear, reef shoes etc that we didn't need but could be handy. This really was a lovely place to begin our hols, enjoy the lagoon views and slide into the island vibe.

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.
