Ideal for nature lovers looking for a self-sufficient getaway, lodges are fully furnished and have kitchen facilities. Usually made of wood and surrounded by forests or mountains, lodges can be part of a group or a single unit. More remote than vacation homes, lodges are popular for safari trips.
Stella in the office, and Kevin and Edwin in the dive shop were lovely and really helpful. The snorkelling was excellent, particularly the free snorkel safari. Our four days ended up being very relaxed and simple, once we understood how hard the recession has hit tourism.
This is an amazing, vintage-style lodging. Everything was super clean, functioning and soundproof. The apartment is self contained and has everything you need for your stay in Port Vila. Our apartment was facing the water, with a beautiful view of the harbour (and the road below). Despite having the road below, it was VERY sound proof and we didn't hear any traffic.
The owner, Beth, is wonderful. We sincerely appreciated her kind hospitality -- felt like visiting family!
I liked staying in a smaller lodge / hotel as it was nice and quiet and we hardly heard or saw the other guests. Loved that it was a short walk to the main town center and on the main road so always 'buses' offering lifts too.
Love love love Seachange Lodge!! Ian was absolutely brilliant to deal with, so kind and interesting. And Oli at Reception was wonderful, really helpful, friendly and funny. I would love to come back to stay for as long as I can!
We had a great time staying at the Sachange Lodge, the lodge is very clean and comfortable, great value for money, beautiful views and very good vibe. However, Ian, Ollie and all the staff are by far the best and they will be in our memories forever. Ian was incredibly helpful and kind, he looked after us not as guests but as family. Thank you so much, guys!!! We are forever grateful and hope to come back soon. THANK YOU TUMAS.
Perfectly, positioned for travelling in and out of the main town. Restaurants and other amenities within walking distance. We stayed in the penthouse which had ample room for our family. We spent lots of time on the balcony enjoying the view over the bay. The staff were friendly and happy to accommodate our needs. We did have trouble with the shower on one occasion but after asking the staff the hot water system just needed the battery changed. Highly recommended Fatumaru Lodge.
The lodge is a comfortable in house (BNB / Backpacker style) shared accomodation. It’s close to town and perfectly suited our ni-Vanuatu family and friends staying in town, rather than doing the round island commute each day.
Best value accommodation in Port Vila. We spent two weeks in Port Vila and stayed in a number of places, this was the the nicest, quietest and friendliest place we stayed by far. Great value for money, full facilities in the sea view lodges including kitchenette, big comfy beds, great views, fan, Aircon and very clean. Our flight home got cancelled and they shuffled things around quickly to get us an extra night stay. Highly recommend.
