Tamanu on the Beach
White Sands Road, Port Vila, Vanuatu – Great location - show map
Seemless service from all the superb employees from collection at airport (thankyou Randy for local knowledge) to the dining, spa, villas and grounds staff. Everyone so delightful, attentive and accommodating. Thankyou for making my daughter's and my stay so comfortable and enjoyable. We are truly rested and fortunate to have stayed at Tamanu on the Beach for 3 glorious days. Here are a few of our suggestions to add to the whole experience. Although there are board games/ books and a few tours available, it would have been nice to be able to play a game outside on the lawn/patio or beach eg petanque or volleyball! Also, athough the dining menus were extensive with numerous specials on offer, we felt that a separate lunch menu would have been a lighter alternative for a snack..ie sandwiches/baguette, a prawn cocktail, chicken skewers, flat bread pizza or such. Otherwise we could not fault a wonderfully indulgent, relaxing holiday. Thankyou.
