My wife and I had the pleasure of staying at the Havannah Resort in April, spending 3 nights in a pool villa and then 4 nights in a beach villa. The pool villa was excellent, with entry to a fabulous pool at our doorstep, something we enjoyed every evening watching the gorgeous sunset. Transferring to a beach villa we were... More

Had a great time here, people were lovely, the villas were lovely and the food was great. Havannah is easily the nicest place you can stay in vanuatu. Only real negative is that it is a bit hard to get in and out of town. But they have a free shuttle. Food was excellent, really enjoyable.. Had a GREAT time.

We stayed at The Havannah on our honeymoon on a honeymoon package. This place is everything you want on a honeymoon. It's quiet, peaceful, scenic and relaxing. We stayed in a pool/lagoon villa which was lovely having our own pool just metres from the door. The only downside was we couldn't see the beautiful bay from our bed! The food... More

'Flop and drop' was a new travel term for my wife and I. The agent who recommended The Havannah used it to describe the short getaway we were looking for. We didn't want to leave the resort at all, just read, swim, sleep, eat and enjoy a good glass of wine. A total rest. The three and a half hour... More
