Apartments in Shefa, Vanuatu

Friendly and helpful staff. The furniture is old and needs to be updated. Hot water is unstable, it was often necessary to rinse with cold water. A broken clock hung on the wall, which was very annoying. At night, small lizards run along the walls inside the bedroom and the ceiling, which made sounds, which is also not pleasant to hear at night. The pillows are long and hard. Dirt accumulated in the washing machine in the tank, which did not wash, but, on the contrary, stained the washed clothes.

We moved here from the neighboring Lagoon Gardens. The owner there is treacherous and lies a dime a dozen. When the front desk clerk heard about our situation, they confirmed that the owner was just that kind of person and said they'd had several waves of guests move in from Lagoon Gardens. Anyway, the rooms here are spacious and clean, with great natural light. The second-floor balcony has a great view. The staff cleans the beach daily, and the water is full of starfish. The hotel also provides free kayaks, which the young guests often use for fun. Keven Paul, the front desk clerk, was very nice. Seeing us getting ready to go out, he warned us it was going to rain and offered to lend us an umbrella. Sure enough, it rained on the way back. The breakfast could be a little better, though.

We had a great stay in a studio apartment. Very spacious and a nice breakfast delivered to the room each morning. Staff are very friendly and it's a short walk to a big supermarket. Port Vila seafront was about a 20 minute walk.

The hotel is conveniently located in the city center. The hotel does not provide meals, but the rooms have kitchens, microwaves, gas stoves, ovens and double-door refrigerators. You can cook by yourself, and there is a supermarket within 5 minutes of going out, with all kinds of ingredients. You can eat outside if you don’t like cooking. There are several Chinese restaurants nearby, all of which are cheap and good. The hotel also has a swimming pool, Port Vila is hotter, and you can swim outdoors all year round.

Our first stop in Vanuatu, and Room with a view hotel gave us a fantastic first impression. Even though we only stayed for one night, the ocean view balcony room exceeded our expectations. Drawing the curtains open to the South Pacific and sleeping on an exceptionally comfortable mattress completely washed away our travel fatigue. The sea view from the balcony alone is well worth the price. The owner was very warm and welcoming, providing free airport transfers (just let them know in advance) and helping with our luggage. The breakfast was delicious too. Great value for money—highly recommended!

On the edge of Erakor Lagoon, the scenery is very good. The service staff are friendly. The suite is spacious, the only drawback is that only one room has air conditioning. Overall, it is worth recommending.
