having always stayed at island or coastal resorts in Fiji, Hawaii etc, staying on the edge of town, immersed in the local residential area was always going to be different and certainly was a new experience. Having read the reviews about the local prison being next door etc made me a little nervous but it just melted into part of... More

Stayed here over christmas of 2011. Booked a budget hibiscus room and I think here is my mistake. Ceiling fan was dangerously low, yes I am tall but I felt like my head was going to be chopped off, every time I walked into the room I crouched. The room was a bit of a heat box and really was...

I stayed at Coconut Palms with my wife for a week in January, and found it to be a fantastic hotel that is in a great location, easily in walking distance of the main centre of Port Vila. The rooms were comfortable - we stayed in a room with air conditioning and ensuite, though there are cheaper rooms without these... More

We really enjoyed our stay at Coconut Palms. We chose it as it was budget-priced, and centrally located. Our room was basic but clean and neat and had most of the facilities you would expect. A few more clothes hangers would be nice. The dining and lounge areas,garden and pool are all lovely, with a tropical ambience. Staff are willing... More

Highly recommended resort. Large spacious room with a kitchen and shower + aircon. This hotel caters for in house functions. Fantastic entertainment - keep an eye out for the breathtaking Fire Dancers, outstanding performance. The Melansian evening is a must. Kava is served before the main meal. During the meal a story is told about Vanuatu's culture. Lee, the food... More

Absolutely terrific place to stay. Even if you have to walk down 52 stairs to get to the centre of Port Vila the location is perfect. Very friendly helpful staff, lovely rooms, great restuarant and amazing entertainment.

Vanuatu in general is very expensive so all the reviews that complain about the prices of things and the quality-remenber you are in a developing country and prices are comparable to Australia. If you wanted cheap, go to Fiji. My Fiancee and I stayed here in the first week of January and found it both a little disappointing but nice... More
