The Staff at the resort are spectacular - they are all so friendly and willing to help in anyway you need. They genuinely seem to want to help you enjoy your stay. Would recommend to anyone to stay here. The resort may not be our usual 5 Star resort but the staff makes up for anything it might be missing.

Fabulous staff at "tired" hotel
Twin-shared room with my beloved daughter as we dealt with the recent loss of a family member. Room was adequate, good space and configuration, in-room aircon and ceiling fan were a god-send. A few problems with door lock (fixed eventually). Hotel staff generally and restaurant staff in particular were fabulous, very caring and attentive. Alot of stairs so may not be ideal for those with mobility issues. Swimming pool was much appreciated too.

The local staff were always warm and friendly although some more training is required for customer facing staff, front of house staff. Pools were clean and well maintained but lagoon swimming was out of bounds. The food and beverage offerings are expensive although the quality is good - particularly breakfast buffet. The property has a lot of stairs to access pools and the beach on the lagoon has been created and not greatly functional. The accommodation wings are very dated . Bathrooms dont have extractors and fog up . Ultimately this property is best suited to families with young children and it seems to be a focus for them. Not really an adult destination as facilities and accommodation aren't up to that level. Spent 4 nights and overall enjoyed Vanuatu however we will try a different ' resort' next time.

Five star service on a budget
Well, what can I say… I was blown away by the total experience that Holiday Inn Vanuatu offered… from the time we checked in, to the gala NYE dinner, to every little request through our 7 day stay. Front office Manager Mayank Kothari ensured our family felt all at home and always greeted us with a smile; no request was ever frowned upon and I know some of the requests made were pushing it. Randy was a great host and was seen everywhere in the resort gracing his infectious smile. Chefs Ram, Aaka and Clinton always made it a point to visit us during meals time permitting of course ensuring all our palates were satisfied. Couldn’t not mention Matilda from front office and Tom - who helped out during a late night emergency for their excellent hospitality. Live music most nights was excellent and set the mood for a wonderful evening. The Malenasian and Curry night with the local performers and fire show was outstanding. Although the rooms were a bit dated and breakfast and lunch options could run out especially with longer stays, I wouldn’t hold it against the joint given the amazing mix of local and expats putting up a great show. Gym can be missed, not worth a visit. Spa is great though. All in all, one of the best holidays we have had in a while, thanks to the wonderful staff at Holiday Inn Vanuatu. We will be back soon to relive the wonderful experience we had last week.
