Luganville
Set in a beautiful waterfront location, Turtle Bay Lodge is a 20-minute drive from Luganville and a 25-minute drive from Santo-Pekoa International Airport. Everything. Excellent service, in every way very well managed place with great eye for details and an atmosphere that makes it hard to leave. Our room was so comfy, cleaner than clean and beautifully decorated and furnished. The whole lodge is beautiful with lots of cozy places to relax. Restaurant for breakfast and dinner was great, everything we had during our 4 days was super delicious (also lots of yummy vegetarian options). There is no real beach but easy water access and lots of hammocks, chairs, lounges and sunbeds right by the sea overlooking beautiful turtle bay. Location was also a huge plus for us. Not too far from champagne beach, close to the blue holes and not too far from Luganville and the airport either. Having a rental car was great for us, but the lodge offers lots of tours, so it’s not a must have here. Finally the staff was just amazing, from housekeeping to restaurant/reception staff or the management itself - everyone was so friendly, helpful and did just a great job. This was not the most expensive place we stayed in in the south pacific region but by far the best so far. One of our favorite spots ever (and we do travel a lot all over the globe). Highly recommend!
Luganville
Set in Luganville, Lope Lope Beach Bungalows offers accommodation with pool with a view, free WiFi and free private parking for guests who drive. Great set up; our bungalow was well-designed, comfortable, had all the conveniences needed, including a gnerously sized deck. Liked having a swimming pool to cool off, a cabana for lounging around in, SUPs and a beach with reef within paddling distance, and a freshwater creek next door. The location is perfect – close enough to Luganville to pick up supplies, but nice and close to Matevulu, Riri and other famous east coast Santo attractions. Owners were very helpful and attentive, and the breakfast on the first morning was a nice touch.

Hog Harbour
Boasting garden views, Lonnoc Beach Lodge offers accommodation with a private beach area and a patio, around 1.5 km from Champagne Beach. My partner and I had the absolute best time at Lonnoc Beach Lodge. We booked three nights at first but extended because our flight to Port Vila got cancelled. Everybody was super helpful with driving us back to Luganville and even calling to the airvanuatu office. The location is beautiful. Right by Lonnoc Beach and a short walk from Champagne Beach. The food was delicious too! We will come back next time in Espiritu Santo!

Espiritu Santo in general is a very nice place. People are honest and friendly, with a lot of incredible places to see. Make sure you visit the following places if you come down to Luganville. - The Million Dollar Point - The Millenium Cave Tour - Malekulu Blue Hole ( Do the kayaking route starting from Oyster island) - Riri Blue Hole - Champagne Beach If you are in for the island experience, head down to the market in Luganville, and they have small restaurants where a meal costs around 3-4 $. More gourmet options are also available specially in the southern parts of the island. Taxis are the main method of getting from point A to point B. The taxi fares are very reasonable, and you can talk with the friendly drivers on a price to take you around the island at your leisure. We used the same taxi driver during our five day stay.
Luganville is a 2 hr flight from Brisbane on Espiritu Santo, the large northern island of Vanuatu. It is quieter than Port Villa and has many outdoor activities and much to see. Many resorts are owned and operated by Australian expats.Food is fresh and wholesome, especially beef and fish. Getting around by local bus or taxi is easy but moderately expensive - but then again its usually a personal trip. Diving and Millenium cave are a must do for the moderately fit tourist.
Luganville is the capital of Espiritu Santo and has plenty of eateries and coffee places, but be prepared to pay cash, as few places accept credit cards (except the hotel restaurants) and there is a hefty surcharge for payment by card (varying from 3 - 5%). Favourites for breakfast/lunch are Attar Café and Natangora Café If you like Chinese food, then you can't go past the Sichuan Chinese next to the 'Tu hotel. You can walk from one end of the town to the other - or if you don't want to walk, taxis / buses are very cheap. Lots to see on Santo - Millenium Cave Tour, Champagne Beach, WWII history, SCUBA diving & snorkelling, Blue Holes (visit the one they take you to up the river by kayak). Wrecks to Rainforest tour organisers in the town centre can organise any trips you want to do. Warning: Vanuatu is not cheap! Accommodation and food prices are on a par with Australia - don't expect Thailand/Bali bargains.
What a wonderful hotel in the heart of Luganville! Mary Jane was an incredible hostess, who helped me with great recommendations of what to do and visit in Espiritu Santo island during my 3-day stay. Hotel with a great price for what it offers, where I had an amazing time, in a comfy bedroom. The breakfast and dinner options were both very tasty! I absolutely recommend this hotel to anyone visiting Luganville. If one day I come back to Santo, I know just where to stay ;)
