Location was good, resort rooms/apartments need work as the are aged and run down, only 1 kayak didn’t leak, no bikes, grounds and pool/deck was good, iguanas are locked in a small cage with nothing and overcrowded (should be at least a small bird aviary with a tree/shrub them in it), food was good, u have to ask for rooms to be serviced (u might get it). We had no water a few times and couple of nights, Beach was good.

The breakfast was pretty basic, but basically good enough. There were 4 kayaks, unfortunately 2 were missing storage covers so would likely fill with water. The other 2 did not have these storage areas so we're fine. The water is calm in this area making a paddle most enjoyable.

Being a cyclists I was happy to read they had loaner bikes. I was disappointed to see the biggest of them were bmx type bikes. Better than nothing though so i checked them out to find some were missing parts, had flat tyres or were broken in other ways so none were safe to ride. Unfortunate,but I guess with the state of the roads bikes break.

Staff here were all nice and friendly.

We had a fantastic experience at Vanuatu Beachfront Apartments. The place was very clean, in a great location, and the staff were exceptional. Special thanks to Juliette and the entire team for going above and beyond to accommodate us — we truly felt cared for. Highly recommended for families or anyone looking for a relaxing and friendly stay in Port Vila!

Positive experience

Other than the condition being “tired”, and ideally in need of renovation, esp bathroom, stay was comfortable and pleasant. Really beautiful staff

that it was self-contained and quiet was goodf for us. Needs better signage on the approach road. Ironing board was broken; oven and TV did not work well. Staff were helpful and friendly.

We had an amazing stay at Beachfront apartments. The location is incredible and the staff were awesome. Antoine was an absolute legend and made our stay so great, our kids will definitely miss playing with him each day. Definitely come back next time we come to vanuatu

We were very well looked after by the ladies at the Beachfront Apartments.Our room was cleaned daily. My husband used one of the kayaks which are free to use.They also have bikes , free to use, but we are a little old for that. The cafe onsite was great and there is a beach bar just down the beach. The free circus on Sunday nights there is a must. You can walk or ferry to Hideaway Island which is a marine Sanctuary so great for swimming and snorkelling. If you are wanting comfortable, homely surroundings out of town this is for you.

Great location away from the city center but right on the beach. Staffs (especially Rota) were extremely polite and always willing to help. The apartment had everything we needed to be our home away from home. The property is very kids friendly as it has a playground, kids club and even iguana patting time. We thoroughly enjoyed our time here and would highly recommend this property to anyone especially families.

On the beach not far from Mele Cascades. Poolside bar serves food, as well as another establishment just down the beach near the hideaway island ferry. 300vt pp by van into port vila. Put a towel at the bottom of the door to stop mozzies getting in at night.

Great location right on the beach. Nice and quiet away from town but close to great places like Hideaway Island and the Beach Bar. Great amenities with free use of kayaks, bikes, life jackets. Rental car onsite was also very convenient for day tripping. Overall it was better than we expected.

This is the second time that we have stayed at this property and again they did not let us down. This time we stayed in the 4 bedroom penthouse. it has great facilities, including a full kitchen.
I love that it is out of town (but not to far) that you can relax and the beach is right in your door step. The ladies that look after you are amazing, nothing is ever to hard. a short 2 mins walk and you are at the Beach Bar which has great meals.
Thank you Beachfront apartments and we hope to visit again!

We had a family of 6 staying (including two kids (4 and 2)) and the in-laws. Given the numbers we booked the 4 bedroom penthouse, and wow it was great! Looking out from the balcony you can see hideaway island and the whole of Mele Bay. It is absolutely spectacular.
The staff are super friendly, and showed my kids the pet iguanas. They also had a kids club for a couple of hours each day which was a good break and the kids adored Jacky and Eva.
Getting into town wasn't hard, you can walk out to the main road and catch a local bus or call one from the Beach Bar. Speaking of the Beach Bar the food was great and it's a lovely place to watch the sunset (and just a short stroll up the beach). They close early (8:30) so there are no particular issues with noise.
The beach in front of the apartments is great for swimming and for little kids. The food we ordered (and cocktails) from the bar at the Apartments were great.
When we took off from Pt Vila airport my daughter burst into tears because she didn't want to leave Vanuatu, and that's a reflection of the Vanuatu Beachfront Apartments staff in particular.

Just to balance my (very genuine) praise if you are looking for 5 star luxury this isn't the place. The shower needed a good clean and some aspects of the property are a bit tired.

But if you want absolute beachfront and super friendly staff and great value overall this is a superb choice. I can't wait to book again.

Loved how this was so close to a safe swimming beach and just a walk across or free transport to Hideaway Island to Snorkel. This is free access to Kayaks, life Jackets, paddle boards. Also has a swimming pool, playground and restaurant and some units having cooking facilities. Highly recommend! Staff are really friendly and helpful 👍🌞👍
