White Sands Road, Port Vila, Vanuatu – Great location - show map
Location was great for us. Accommodations were beautiful. Staff was very attentive.
United States of AmericaThe food was outstanding, and well prepared. The service was friendly, and the location was quiet and pristine. A great getaway location, truly an experience. I would recommend this place to anyone who wanted a quiet getaway but close enough to everything you need.
AustraliaFood and service were excellent. Fantastic beach location. Villas were stunning. Bed was comfortable. Nothing was too much trouble for the staff. Welcome drink at check in. Paid extra for transport from and to the airport. Breakfast options were plentiful and it is included in the price.
AustraliaEveryone very nice and keen to make you feel at home. We got a little problem with the room and they manage to change it for us with a bigger and better one, giving us an amazing couple massage for the inconveniente.
ItalyThe location was beautiful, the food in the restaurant was excellent. Breakfast was a little less excellent, but still good.
AustraliaBreakfast was amazing, service and staff was super helpful. Location is right on the beach and our villa was beachfront
United KingdomThe amazing food and superb service. The staff are friendly and cannot do enough for you. A very relaxing environment.
AustraliaThe food was absolutely amazing and the service even better. We were fortunate enough to have a wonderful lady called Ellen look after us (name spelling ocould be incorrect). She was so lovely she really did make our stay very special. Would recommend Tamanu to anyone!
AustraliaAmazing location and a resort that really provides an exclusive experience without feeling overwhelming. In particular the staff, from management to the restaurant, are lovely and welcoming and the service is attentive and friendly. This rubs off on the guests, providing a friendly, laid back but respectful atmosphere and given the small size of the resort it’s not uncommon to bump into the same people at meal times etc. but this just ends up with sharing tables for dinner and making firm friends. We ate at the restaurant every day and couldn’t fault the food, from range to quality. We spent Christmas and New Year here and it really felt like a special home from home for the whole period.
AustraliaPeacefulness. Stunning views. Well maintained property. Fantastic for total relaxation as it was lovely and quiet. Small number of villas meant a quiet atmosphere but it never felt awkward. The villa we were in was spacious and clean. Very thoughtful to provide a small selection of books and board games.
