"We absolutely loved our stay at Fatumaru Lodge—a perfect base for our family holiday in Vanuatu.
The room was spacious and well-equipped, with cooking facilities, a proper fridge and freezer (a big plus with kids!), and plenty of room to relax.
The view from our room was stunning—sparkling water by day, beautiful sunsets from the sundeck by night. It was peaceful, picturesque, and felt like our own slice of paradise.
It’s also in a super convenient location—an easy walk to local cafes and...
"A great place to stay. The staff were very friendly and helpful, and the food was good as well. The mattress wasn't the most comfortable, but other than that everything was great."
"Quiet. Accessible transportation. Self content rooms. Kitchen. Owners of the property are very friendly. The view is magical. The green surrounding with the lagoon view is priceless."
"The staff are simply beautiful. All amenities are reflected accordingly in their description. New cabins being built which will be exciting for people travelling there shortly. Chef John is awesome! You MUST have his croissants for breakfast. Make sure to pat ‘Lucky’ the cat, he is adorable "
"Everyone was so welcoming and helpful. We stayed 6 nights in total and absolutely loved it. The food was delicious and the pool was so wonderful to swim in. We could borrow kayaks from the resort and kayak on the river too. So much fun and so relaxing. Thank you for a wonderful stay :-)"
"Quiet, peaceful, but exceptionally good value. Continental breakfast provided was not great, but we had cooking facilities and it was easy to buy some eggs and bacon. And we brought our own coffee. So all good. Restaurant not fast but food was always very good. And staff always very friendly and helpful. "
"Our eight night stay was a delight. Our accommodation was clean, comfortable and spacious. We took the full board option, which in our opinion was a must and a real value add to our booking. The food choices are varied and the quality of food is outstanding. Some of the cooking was questionable when it comes to med/rare meat or not rendered lamb cutlets, but they definitely do seafood very well. What makes this a great holiday is the island of Iririki and the most happy friendly staff. ...
"Great location, very clean room, welcoming staff. Absolutely recommended for travellers looking to save $ on accommodation and spend more on attractions and adventures."
"A smaller quiet resort that suits me.
The meals were homely and delicious.
Staff very friendly and obliging.
It is probably older since the webpage photos but I found my stay pleasant and comfortable. "
"Our accommodation at Waves at Surfside was beautiful! The room view was perfect & the staff were very accommodating and friendly. We had a great time there with Breakas within close distance for food and cocktails on the beach front. We loved the private pool, the villa was very clean upon arrival & had anything we may have needed. I’d absolutely recommend the stay to others! "
"A lovely resort on Erakor island. Excellent staff. Lovely rooms with waterfront views. Free water sports. Gorgeous location. Definitely the best place to stay in Efate. "
"Chris and staff make the whole experience awesome.
It’s located on the lagoon.
It’s home away from home. Toilet is cosy as you won’t be spending a lot of time in there but very clean.
Laundry facilities are available onsite.
BBQ is clean and new and conveniently located near pool area which is super. Pool is surrounded by sitting / eating areas.
Parking space is available if you want to brave the roads but buses are frequently available.
Eating places like Pad Thai is within walking distance...
"We stayed there on our first trip to vanuatu and loved the resort, we stayed in a overwater suite and it was stunning, staff are very friendly and helpful. Daily breakfast was great with a huge selection. Only negative was the "happy hour" at the swim up bar because the second it started 2 of the 3 bar staff disappeared meaning in that hr we only got served once but that's the only fault. Highly recommend this resort"
"The resort is absolutely beautiful with stunning water views on the bay, beautifully maintained tropical gardens, and cute tropical "fare" bungalows. You have the choice of swimming in the pristine sea or in the lovely swimming pool.
The staff is so dedicated to helping you have the best stay and the manager is very helpful.
We'll come back. "
