The Havannah is a wonderful spot for a holiday where relaxation is the main goal. We were in a beach front villa and with the doors open the view over the infinity edge plunge pool across the water to Mosso Island is perfect. The restaurant did not serve us a bad meal, everything we ate was a wonderful dish finished... More

Dear AJ911 Thank you for your comments and for recognising the staff who are definitely ambassador of Vanuatu and of the Havannah. You are very right in your description of service as we will never be like a Sydney or Melbourne establishment, however we do endevour to provide a friendly service to all. We hope to welcome you back soon... More

There are not enough words to describe this beautiful place. From the pick up in the Havannah bus, the beautiful staff and the first class accommodation. Nothing is too much trouble for the amazing staff who will go out of their way to make things perfect for you. The beach front villa with private pool is spectacular and the million... More

Dear Angelah321 I have passed on your comments to all our staff who were delighted to have made your stay enjoyable. You did not see the manager as we did not have one at the time; you were in an interim period, between management changes. So please accept my sincere apologies and I do garantee that you will see a... More

We just came back from our honeymoon from staying at the Havannah for a week. The team there went above and beyond to make our stay personable, relaxing and convenient by organising all trips into Port Vila without any trouble. The beachside vilas were clean and had an outstanding view. From a sunset sail, to a private picnic on your... More

My husband and I stayed at The Havannah in mid-April and it more than lived up to expectations. This hotel is perfect for couples of any age (we were on our honeymoon) - they seem to specialise in romance and decadence. The staff and managers were lovely and the people of Vanuatu are very friendly. Each night we would return... More

Our 7 night stay at the Havannah was amazing! From the minute we arrived the staff were friendly and welcoming, the resort, the view, the rooms and the food were all 5 star. The highlight of our Lagoon Pool room was the private entrance to the top level infinity pool which is only shared by 4 other rooms, and the... More

As one other reviewer said this is a good place for honeymooners and older couples... in fact, newly wed and nearly dead clientele. (We were the latter). The food is very good and the restaurant tables nicely spaced out so you didnt feel as if there were people on top of you. Having hammocks is a nice touch. Beautiful sunsets.... More

We had a very relaxing 7 night stay in a Lagoon Pool Villa at the Havannah in April 2012. True to the nature of the Vanuatu people, the staff are always smiling, very kind, and happy to help. The on-site managers Tish & Owen are always around and will do what they can to make your stay perfect. The room... More

My husband and I travelled to the Havannah for a week and found that the staff wouldn't give us the time of day if we weren't on a honeymoon. The resort is just too far away (at least 35mins) from the town which is where all the tours/restraunts are located. There is a courtesy bus at the resort but we... More
