Book Port Vila hotels

When it comes to going on holiday to the South Pacific, we Vanuatu and you can Vanuatu, too. Want to? If you’re short on time to make your great escape, pack your bags for Port Vila. You can repel down rainforest cliffs, hike through waterfalls and bury yourself in white sand right outside Port Vila accommodation. You’ll find the capital of Vanuatu on the west coast of Efate Island. Just follow the scent of suntan oil and coconut crab.

For baller Port Vila accommodation, look to the coastline in Vila Bay. Who doesn’t want to wake up to views of Iririki Island? Actually, who doesn’t think half the fun is in saying “Iririki Island”? For a more secluded stay, book one of our awesome Mele Cascades packages in the village next door and spend your days chasing waterfalls.

Things to Do in Port Vila

Speaking of the Mele Cascades, hiking to these gorg waterfalls west of Port Vila is as fun as splashing around in the natural pools beneath them, so pack wellies (they’ll look great with your togs). Love Mele, but prefer goggles to galoshes? Take a snorkelling tour at nearby Hideaway Island Marine Reserve and swim with the fishes—no macabre undertones included. Want the best views of the city? While diving deep may be more colourful, there’s nothin’ like riding a zip-line through Vanuatu Jungle. Hey, you can sleep off the adrenaline rush in one of the cosy Port Vila hotels or keep party going with a helicopter tour. Your call.

Getting To & Around Port Vila

Touch down at Bauerfield International Airport (VLI), about 6 km north of downtown Port Vila. Catching a cab is the most efficient way to get around; look for license plates with the capital “T” for “taxi”, “travel” and “terrific”.
