Lagoon Gardens

Host and staff were exceptional.

Staff were invaluable,

Laundry service was great. Nice spacious rooms. Cute our door setting by the water front. Good sized bathroom.

Great value for money. Anick was great. She arranged personalised tours. A few things to note 1. Airport transfer free is 3000 Vatu not 18Aud as advertised. 2. No A/C in my room but I was okay with that because I was originally from Sri Lanka Very safe place and I got what I paid for

Lagoon Gardens is by far the best place to stay in Port Vila. The lush gardens right on the lagoon create a peaceful and unique atmosphere. Morgan, Yvette, and the entire team were incredibly kind and always happy to help, whether it was booking tours or assisting with anything else we needed. The facilities are excellent: there’s a fully equipped kitchen, an outdoor BBQ area, and free kayaks so you can explore the lagoon anytime you like. They also provide snorkeling gear, which you can take with you on your beach trips. We’d definitely come back without hesitation! It felt like home.

Property is really dated and basic and needs some maintenance and deep cleaning. It’s cheap though, so you get what you pay for. It‘s far from the city centre and there‘s literally nothing around. The hotel next door has a small restaurant, there‘s a chinese take away (inadvisable) and supermarket a 10 min walk down the street and that‘s it. TV has no program. Our room had missing window pieces and the mosquito nets on the outside were broken too, so had a lot of ants, flies and bugs inside the room - I highly recommend to bring repellant and/or a mosquito net for the bed (there wasn’t one in the room) for calm nights. There was also no remote for the AC, so you need to keep the windows open anyways. No shampoo and bodywash provided. The owners and their staff ladies were very friendly, welcoming and helpful. Breakfast consists of coffee/tea, toast, eggs and some fruits - nothing special but tasty and totally fine PLUS you‘re sitting just next to the lagoon in the morning, which was our highlight everyday. Would recommend it for a short stay but it‘s really too quiet, dated and basic for a longer holiday. We were happy to leave after 6 nights.

Unreal hospitality! They went above and beyond to make us feel welcome and helped with any questions we had. They arranged all our tours at a great price. I can’t recommend this place enough.

Perfect place. Picturesque and above all clean. I’ll stay again

I had an amazing stay at the Lagoon Gardens. The owner and workers were very friendly and helpful and the grounds were beautiful. I was able to go kayaking on the lagoon and the location was perfect to walk to the market and into town.

Everything was very basic. the shower was terrible, not good flow of water. the privacy of bathroom was very much compromised. The mosquito net was just for a baby not for the whole bed. The air conditions unit was only for show. The room TV was not connected with arial antenna and the youtube was not connected. The breakfast was very basic. We suggest the owner was not seriously running the property. Therefore, we left it on 25th of July and expect some money to be refunded to us. The owner also agreed for refund if you allow them. Thank you. Regards, Pradip
