"I was in Vanuatu on a work mission, so my reading of the place is different from that of someone traveling purely for leisure. The hotel delivers on being clean, with a view of the lagoon. While Vanuatu still requires significant work in public services, sidewalks, drainage, and so on, none of that is felt inside the hotel. It is a small paradise.
I do think there is some evidence of depreciation, but given the context, it is very acceptable: some limescale in the bathrooms, and a few bathroom fixtures, such as the soap dish, were partly broken. However, everything was functional.
What will stay with me is the magnificent attention from the staff, especially at the restaurant, always smiling and very attentive. I think I will remember opening the doors toward the lagoon, setting up my table, and working with good air conditioning and a sensational view.
Finally, while the restaurant is not Michelin-starred, it delivers, and delivers very well. The food is tasty, creative, and fresh. I left satisfied."
"This review is about lack of communication, poor management - poor customer service. This is in no way a reflection on the beautiful Vanuatu staff at all.
We unfortunately were on the island during the fire event which was an emergency event and we were moved to another hotel for 2 nights and then back to Iririki.
The issue was there was no communication that a fire had occurred. No communication about what was happening - we were told to stand in a line and wait to find out where we going. We still hadn’t been told there was a fire or we were being evacuated. We were then made to pay our room tab prior to being booked into emergency accommodation. Only once our account was settled was a hotel organised.
Most phone calls/emails/whatsapp messages went unanswered. No info given about returning. On return power went out again. On and off over next couple of days.
Compensation was essentially refused in terms of refund of price difference from room type booked v room supplied - time wasted - cancelled arrangements/plans -lied to face to face by management. We did get offered dinner and a massage as comp but on check out this was on bill. then had to wait to speak to the manager who was on a day off to get approved again. So out of 6 days- 2 days wasted - 1.5 days of a 3 day car hire wasted - hours spent arguing with managers. Spent the best part of 4 days in tears. Great way to celebrate my husbands 60th birthday and retirement celebration."
"For those who's priority is relaxation and refreshing the mind & spirit, this is the place for you. The Moso has 15 villas, so there's typically no more than 30 guests. Many guests stick to their villas since several have their own pools.
Yes, you can take trips, the staff will arrange boat transfers to Efate, a 10 minute ride away, or to Major Tom, the sailboat that moors about 15 minutes away.
The walk to Embas beach on the other side of the island takes 30-40 minutes, but well worth the incline over the hill and back down. The reef there is even more amazing than the one out front of the resort. I had a massage booked for later that day, so I asked the staff to pick us up on the quad for the trip back, which they did.
Friday and Saturday nights from 5:30pm you can walk 10-15 minutes to the nearest side of the village to Jerry's Kava Bar. Chat with the locals, look at the moon, stars and water from the porch. Take a few bucks in cash for the Kava and Tuskers (beer).
The locals are some of the most delightful people I've met.
Downsides: If you need to be active all the time, this is not the place for you. It's quiet, tranquil, remote, and sometimes they're out of a dish from the menu due to limited supplies. We couldn't get our pool light to work (put that on the bulb replacement list) and the in-room safe needed new AA batteries. Big deal, right?
It's fabulous. We loved it."
"This is a great place to stay away from the busy and dusty Port Vila. The resort is tucked between the coral sea and the virgin forest. My bungalow front doors overlooked the sea, and I could hear the waves all night. The restaurant area is an open space and provides good quality wifi. The staff is always ready to help. My reservation included breakfast. It is served on a plate, 2 eggs, 2 pieces of toast, fruit and a drink of my choice. There are many activities on offer; massage, diving ... I recommend Le Life resort for those looking for a hideaway spot."
"Peaceful, relaxing, and a great place to unwind. The view was amazing and we looked forward to every meal overlooking the water. Snorkeling, paddling boarding, sea kayaking, and private access to water within steps of our bungalow. The staff was kind, friendly, and absolutely wonderful. We loved it here!"
"Island Magic is in a lovely location. It’s right on the waterfront and there is fantastic coral coming right up to the jetty. The rooms are spacious, clean and comfortable. Damien and Caroline are great hosts — very welcoming and helpful. They have great staff working with them too — always ready to help with a smile. The property is a little way out of town on a gravel road, so be ready for a bumpy ride for the last 5 mins or so. We were lucky to be welcomed in to expat drinks on Friday when we arrived, which was a lot of fun and an incredible way to pick up tips for the holiday to come. The only downside is a bit of bass coming from a nearby resort now and then, but that’s just part of island life!"
