Vacation rentals with a pool in Vanuatu

This was just what I wanted! A week in the middle of nowhere with good internet for a working holiday. Since it is so isolated, I had my taxi driver stop at the grocery store for breakfast foods on my way to Banana Bay and brought lots of my own snacks for lunch and then just ate dinner on site. The restaurant food was good, but mostly pizzas and burgers/sandwiches, so I was wishing there was a bit more variety by the end of the week, but I am not a big foodie, so no real complaints. (And the veggie pizza and the Aussie burger were my favorites, so definitely give those a try if you can!) Since I did not have a car, I hired Greg from EBikes Vanuatu one day for a scooter ride around parts of the island and that was super fun! I highly recommend! Overall, I would for sure come back and probably spend 4 nights there and 2 nights in town for a bit more variety. But it was a lovely stay all in all and Kris and her mum Carollynne were fantastic hosts!

Everything positive that others have written about Carmen and her place is true. When you arrive in a new country, the best thing is to be greeted at the airport by a friendly face and taken to accommodation that has all of your needs catered for, right down to there being breakfast supplies… and that what we got from this Airbnb. We only stayed one night, so I can’t really comment on the location - although the taco restaurant up the road had some nice food. Thank you Carmen and Roger

Glen’s place is beautiful. Anna the house manager was very helpful and attentive. Wish we could have stayed longer

If your looking for paradise away from too much tourism this place is a dream. We absolutely loved it and extended our stay. The 9 nights were wonderful. Was the best snorkeling I've ever done and we've travelled a lot as a family. The house is perfect, solar and all your need if you love the environment and don't need excess energy. We took plenty of food from Australia which I'd highly recommend for a long stay so you don't have to go back to main island to shop and just enjoy your paradise. We will definitely return!

Excellent accommodation with a convenient check-in procedure, quick pick-up and drop-off arrangements, a friendly landlord, and good housekeeping service.

We love coming back to Errollyn N Tristan’s tropical paradise that’s home away from home. There is everything you need or want. Kitchen is well stocked and the bathrooms have everything you need. Errollyn N Tristan even organise transport! They are very responsive and go out of their way to meet our needs. Thank you once again!

Frank and Dee are wonderfully friendly and helpful. Great to chat with and can offer plenty of local recommendations. The Airbnb is clean, very spacious and well equipped for cooking if needed. Massive pool and views over the bay. Walk to the end of the road and then get local buses for the 5 minute trip into town, or call a local driver. We also did Frank’s off-road adventure buggy tour which was heaps of fun! 🤩

Sarka's place is indeed an oasis - it is quiet and peaceful and well removed from the main road. The gardens are lovely and the super clean pool was a fantastic way to cool off a bit. We slept well. And Sarka kindly left us a bowl of fresh fruit. Recommended!

A quiet private hide away with plenty of room, all the facilities you would expect (remembering you are in The Pacific) with amazing views and a great infinity pool. As a lot of the other reviews mention, the roads in the area are quite rough (but to be fair, so are most of the roads in Vanuatu!) and the property is not really in walking distance to any facilities (like restuarants and groceries) so a vehicle is really a must, and I would suggest a 4WD. In saying that, it is only 10 - 15 minutes depending on traffic to central Port Vila and the local Au Bon Marche supermarket is only 5 minutes drive. We had no major issues but when we needed to contact Nathan he was really responsive. I guess the litmus test is "would we rent this property again?" The answer is a resounding YES!
