We spent almost 2 weeks at Moorings for our honeymoon in April. We had one of the downstairs rooms on the ocean, which was fantastic because we had our own private balcony overlooking the ocean to relax on. We loved the pool and the location, within easy walking distance of the centre of town. The rooms were clean and the... More

Only had an overnighter at Moorings Hotel, but found it easily met our needs. Staff were very friendly and happy, and our room was clean and had everything we wanted for a one-night stay. Breakfast was excellent. It's situated right on the bay, so is in a nice location, and not too far from the centre of town. There is... More

We stayed for 8 nights and while the resort could do with a little updating our room was clean and tidy and although a little small we only needed a place to base ourselves from. By the end of the trip we were on first name terms with the staff. They mad our stay at the hotel just the best... More

Stayed at Moorings for a week after a trip to one of the outer islands. Great location, only a 5 minute stroll from the center of town (good if you get sick of the hotel food and want a cheaper option). Staff is always friendly, courteous and more than happy to help. Standard Queen room was a reasonable size with... More

Spent few days here in march. It was great and relaxing. Staff was really friendly. One night , there was a concert of reggae which was very good, with really good local musicians. Our room (301) with view on the bay was nice and comfy. Really short stroll to the centre of Port Vila! Yep, I would go back there... More

This is a great place to stay. It's an easy flat walk into town and really has everything you need in this level of accomodation. The restaurant had good quality food at reasonable prices and it has a nice sized swimming pool and a pool table. Some of the other reviews mention the meals being expensive however we found the...

We have recently visited Port Vila and stayed at Moorings Hotel where we experienced very friendly staff who were most helpful. The property is located just a short stroll from town. Although our stay was only a few days we enjoyed the pleasant atmosphere at the bar and were pleased to be able to have "an old fashioned roast night"... More

As I first time traveller to Vanuatu and as a young female travelling solo, I was completely blown away with Vanuatu itself and the Moorings Hotel. Moorings Hotel is situated right on the ocean so to speak, you really can't get any closer to the water itself. This makes it perfect for dining, the scenery is amazing. It has a... More
