Deco Stop Lodge

The place was generally pleasant, and had nice views. However, the hotel website is very much out of date. There was no table tennis table or tv room - one of the reasons we booked so the non-divers has something to do on site. Lunch stops being served promptly at 2pm, and the hotel couldn’t offer anything other than a bowl of chips from 2pm-6pm, which is somewhat inconvenient when you’ve finished diving later if you’re on boat dives, as there’s nothing else nearby (town is about a 20 minute walk) Another tip - the hotel offers Airport pick ups at Vt800 per person. Bear in mind that unless you’re a solo traveller it might be better to pick up a taxi at the airport as they charge fixed price of Vt1,000. There are plenty of taxis driving past the gates too for the return trip, and easy to stop one the day before and book the return journey

Slightly further away from the main street, but has a great view and relaxing atmosphere. A comfortable choice of stay.

We got charged in full at the time of booking for 5 nights, had to cancel and forced to pay 1 extra night. The manager would not give us a refund

Fabulous view, great location, friendly and helpful staff and owners, delicious food. I couldn't fault this place and will definitely stay again if in Luganville.

A great place to wind down and relax after a days diving, comfortable clean and inviting

The owners were friendly and helpful. We were hot and tired when we arrived and we were welcomed with a lovely cold and refreshing drink. Very much appreciated. They were knowledgeable of the local area, customs and services. Car hire and snorkeling gear is available if needed. Although there is no guest laundry, they will do laundry for you at a reasonable cost. The pool deck and dining area are wonderful with great views.

I enjoyed my stay at Deco Stop Lodge. Breakfast included was a plus for me.

We stayed for a week while in Santo and we couldn't have picked a better place. Things in Vanuatu are expensive in general so for what you get at Deco stop, it's well worth the price. The restaurant is arguably the best in Vanuatu, the infinity pool is great, and Ben and Kim were amazing. They helped us out of a bind, took us with them to Oyster Island and gave us a lift back to the airport even when I wasn't feeling well the last day of the trip. If you're staying in Santo, make Deco stop your choice!
