I’ve been traveling to Vanuatu since 2018. I’ve stayed in nearly every “budget,” a bunch of affordable, and a few ritzy spots. This spot for its price cannot be beat. Clean, running water, overly accommodating staff. Seriously, they washed my clothes and offered me a bigger room because it was available.
What set them apart is they refunded me for the first night of my three night stay since I was unable to check in until day two because of a flight delay. And they let me check in at 9am because the room was ready!
Look. Vanuatu is a silly expensive country. I’d say ludicrous at times. This hotel is worth it. Work with the staff and they will ensure you have working A/C, wi-if (given no storms), a bed, and a quiet space in the heart of Vila (which is very hard to find).
Vanuatu MG Cocomo Resort offers Melanesian-style accommodations, located a 5-minute drive from central Port Vila and a 15-minute drive from Port Vila Airport.

We were in Vanuatu for 4 days, the hotel is a perfect place to stay in Port Vila very close to the city center and the beach, the staff of the hotel is so kind and perfect they help you for everything.
The food of the breakfast is delicious and cooked by William so good. I wanted to thank the person again for his kindness :)

Our trip was a bit of a roller coaster , but overall we enjoyed our time there .
Highlights , 83 islands distillery tour was awesome . Mele beach bar great food , awesome staff and location and the fire show on Friday nights fantastic . Kids can swim at the beach , have a feed and watch the shoe -A+ . The markets were awesome as usual .
Low lights . We’ve been going to Vanuatu for over 20 yrs , and our recent trip to the cascades saddened us and emptied our wallets .
The current owners havnt maintained the place and the entry fee is extortion . The roads are next level knarly All 3 of our airport transfers were no shows which was disappointing but not the end of the world .
The people of Vanuatu are why we come back every time . They really are the friendliest people on earth .
Special shout out to Gideon and his family from Havanah eco lodge .
They treated us like family and we had a great time over there .

Port Villa is heaven on earth, I have been there 3 times and will always go back, with all the natural disasters this island goes through people are still so friendly and happy all the time, they live a simple life and always have a reason to smile, i strongly advise visiting the locals as it much better than staying in the resorts, the rivers , lagoons and beachs are surreal and its all so clean, the locals will always say hello and help you with anything you need.
There are plenty of taxis to go around, I would stay away from resorts for food and go into town as the resorts are extremely expensive and the town prices are so much cheaper.

Fresh food and souvenir markets were very well maintained.
Fresh food and souvenir markets were very well maintained. Indeed the waterfront esplanade area was attractive apart from the toilets behind the stage set up for MAC festival which had a $1.00 AU entry fee. Our trip on the coral viewing boat was worthwhile. The Museum was a great disappointment especially given the high entry fee and the seeming lack of curatorial care in presenting historical perspectives such as WW2 events and impacts of colonisation.

The local people were great: friendly, helpful and polite.
The local people were great: friendly, helpful and polite. There were good restaurants, particularly the Waterfront Bar and Grill. It was easy to get a taxi or bus on the street, but asking the hotel to get you a taxi may result in a long wait for their preferred driver to arrive.
We heard several stories from disappointed people who booked resorts where there was nothing to do and had ferry charges to get back to the mainland.

Exceptional place if you wish to get into the local lifestyle and explore the culture. There are nice places to visit like Mele Beach bar for Fire Dance, Blue Lagoon and Iririki Island for Snorkeling, Kayaking, swimming, casino and a lot more to offer that too at very affordable rates.

We recently stayed at Nasama for the first few days of our trip to Vanuatu. The location was great being a little further out of town, but easy to get into town if needed. We only went to town to buy supplies while we were there. It’s also a short walk to other resorts if you feel like mixing it up for dinner or lunch. The snorkelling right by the resort was great, and the pool was great as well. We were lucky to get a beach side apartment with a great view and lots of privacy. Was a great start to our trip.
The accommodation is very easy to approach and can move all over Port Vila very easily. The owner of Dwellery and her family is amazing and they let you feel at home. It was fabulous experience staying at Janessa's Dwellery. The place is not a luxury place but hospitality and support for all the things is exceptional. The staff guides very nicely to arrange tours on your own. Highly recommended place to stay. Last but not least the breakfast is also satisfying.
Exceptional hotel. Very comfortable room, great amenities both in the room and on the hotel grounds. Well equipped kitchen gives travelers with special dietary needs all the comforts of home.
The hotel is right on the beach overlooking Port Vila Harbor. Great location for a tropical resort. Relaxing views from the room and veranda (if you're fortunate enough to get a beach front room). If you're planning a trip to Port Vila the Ramada is a great choice.
Great and affordable self contained accommodation with everything we required including prearranged car hire. For a small fee they even arranged to pick us up from the airport and all though our flight was delayed until midnight they were still there smiling and waiting for us. The property was clean, well maintained and in a convenient location. Thanks to the friendly staff for adding to the enjoyment of our stay.
This place is one of the most special places I've ever stayed due to the wonderful staff who work hard everyday to make you feel welcomed. From Nunez on reception to Alice and the boys on the floor to the kitchen staff everybody was just delightful to talk to. The staff make this place the most wonderful stay one could ever imagine. We were even taught some Bislama. A MUST do if you are in Vanuatu.
Whispering palms is secluded paradise. Right on the beach with a reef in front for snorkelling and an easy drive to some beautiful local spots including Top Rock, Havannah and Moso. There is even a small convenience store about 5 mins walk to the south to pick up incidental items but it's best to get groceries in Port Vila first. Sylvie and the other team who look after the property are lovely.
The staff and location of this place was very good. I spent there a good working week ( I traveled for the UN mission) in uneasy post- Covid times. The place is safe and relatively quiet even though it is located near the main road. It has full kitchen and laundry/ dryer plus a very big patio. The owner dropped me off to the airport free of charge which was very nice and unexpected. Thank you!
The apartments are exactly as described here so no surprises when we arrived. Most importantly Beth has been a lifesaver when our plans in Vanuatu have changed multiple times courtesy of Air Vanuatu. She has been very flexible so we did not have to look for a room elsewhere in Port Vila. Overall we enjoyed our stay at Coral motel and of course meeting Beth and the rest of the staff.
The owner family of the property made me very welcome and became like family to me. They included me in local expatriate (European) life and activities. They made my 70th birthday about the best birthday that I have had, with their generosity and company. They brought single backpacker guests together and that made for the highlight of the trip to Vanuatu.
Everything was great at Pacific Lagoon apartments, we loved our stay and wish we had stayed longer. The staff were amazing so friendly and knowledgeable about Vanuatu places to go and visit. My son asked a lot of questions and they were happy to answer and spend time with him! Loved the bathroom and the shell feature area it was beautiful!
