Hotels near Bauerfield airport

Pros: Location is quite and perfect for relaxation

Cons: Cleanliness especially the floor

Pros: Couldn’t get there due to Covid-19 but was in contact with Rae, manager, who was wonderful and helpful and we will be staying there as soon as we can travel again

Cons: They gave us a room on the ground floor facing the sea. The design of the doors is so extremely bad that, if you don't want anyone to see you (which is easy to be able to pass someone by the sea in some type of boat, or simply, that some other client decides to go to the pier that has the establishment, from where he can see you perfectly) You have to keep the doors closed, and as they are type "Louvre" and have no glass, the room will be completely dark and unable to see the outside; Why do I want a room with a view if I have to keep it closed ???? And not only for privacy, but also for security, since anyone can access by coming in a small boat. In addition, those doors that face the sea, do not have mosquito nets and as I said, neither crystals, allowing entry to all types of insects and in Port Vila, there are no shortage of mosquitoes. It is appreciated that the bed has a mosquito net (although the rest of the room will fill with mosquitoes if you don't close everything), but it would be much better if there were mosquito nets and, once again, able to see the beautiful views ... If you could enjoy them !!!! As if that were not enough, the interior lights are poor, which together with the fact that you cannot open the front exit, makes you feel locked. In addition, work was being done in the pool, which only let you two options: bathe with the workers next to you, or wait for them to finish their working day and leave. In these cases it would be appreciated that the establishment would have notified before confirming the reservation, in case we had decided to change to another, As if that were not enough, say that the smell in the area is like sewers and that you can not swim in seawater in 20 meters from the shore, as it is contaminated, as the Government warns. I apologise for my criticism for it staff, which is the best that the establishment has, always super friendly and kindly.

Pros: The location and the room was very nice. Staff were very helpful.

Cons: There were renovations being carried out on the pool area which the staff said the pool was still accessible but it really wasn’t which was disappointing.

Pros: Breakfast was continental - no protein, served on the deck. Had to ask for milk for the coffee. Location good - sea view. Air conditioning in the bedrooms. Close to town, a short walk to good restaurants or taking the bus was an option to get further into town.

Cons: Were not advised building work was being done on the pool bar area. Access to pool during the day was not possible & swimming in the sea was prohibited. Noisy during the day. Deck was also under maintenance and partly unusable.

Pros: Loved room and the views Enjoyed our stay and it was calm and soothing Location is ideal as it's just at the tip of city but not so close to hear the noise during the day

Cons: Nothing

Pros: Amazing resort, small and personable. Staff were Amazing especially our driver William he was such a lovely knowledgeable man. Rooms were large and comfortable. Loved the free kyacks and paddle boards. Would definitely stay again.

Cons: Breakfast was bit expensive for what was included and the hill to walk up to leave would not be good for anyone with bad legs but apart from that it was great place to stay.

Pros: Great Location right on the water with free SUP boards and kayaks. Bed was super comfortable and the room has everything you need. The staff are very friendly and helpful. The pool was great to cool down after a day of sight seeing.

Cons: The Wi-Fi is pretty poor, but that is to be expected.

Pros: The staff were amazing, and went above and beyond for us. We loved the location and the place was fantastic.

Pros: The staff were all super friendly and helpful, and the facilities were excellent - decking overlooking the ocean, a private stretch of beach, bikes, kayaks and SUPs! The pet iguanas are also awesome and a great fun little quirk.

Pros: Free use of bicycle and kayaking is a real bonus

Cons: Range hood does not have ventilation pipe so the cooking smell cannot go out.

Pros: Beach is right in front of hotel! Bbq packs were amazing along with the freshly baked bread. Cocktails on point ! Hideaway island is a 2 min walk to wharf super easy to access. Room was super spacious! We had the 2 bedroom apartment which opened out to the pool and beach. Beautiful sunsets from the deck. Overall very nice place to stay.

Pros: The sfaff are great.

Cons: No reception when we arrived and no reception again on our 2nd day and then when we woke up the 2nd day there is no internet. We ask the staff and they don't know why. We can't do anything about it as the reception was closed during that day.

Cons: Nothing

Pros: The hotel did their best in granting my request for rooms on the 5th Floor for myself, husband, son and daughter. what a great surprise to have a lovely vase of flowers waiting for us in our room, and they managed to give us the same room as we had on our previous visit. Great Customer Service. The hotel staff, irrespective in which area they work, were friendly, attentive and always willing to assist. We will definitely be returning.

Cons: Gets noisy at times, a nearby nightclub is TOO LOUD!

Pros: The breakfast is amazing, i think probably the best in town

Cons: Nothing

Pros: Breakfast was full buffet and served by extremely friendly staff. The entire hotel team was very helpful and couldn't be nicer. On the last day when our organised taxi didn't arrive the security man waited on the street to flag one for us to get us to the airport on time.

Cons: Wifi needed new passwords and could be slow. TV reception was a bit patchy. Sometimes I could smell cigarette smoke even though I was on a non-smoking floor and in a non-smoking room.

Pros: Modern hotel with an execellent breakfast offering.

Cons: Aircon struggled to keep the room cool. Reception and foyer stinks of smoke from the Casio. Telephone did not work in my room. Room service tried to deliver my rather average hamburger to the wrong room and the burger was subsequently delivered cold. Hotel double charged me for the room which I corrected on my return to Australia (refund was provided).

Pros: This is a lovely resort, beautiful villas, always clean. The staff are so friendly and caring. We had lovely meals morning and night. I would be happy to recommend it.

Cons: Maybe a bit more variety at breakfast. Unfortunately there is no swimming in the bay.

Pros: Lovely garden,and the view of the harbour was excellent.

Cons: The room was a bit small and no chair to sit on.

Pros: Staff were all lovely, very friendly and helpful. Location was great, only a short walk into town. Beautiful views from room. Restaurant food was beautiful and reasonably priced

Cons: Breakfast was very basic, but had add ons available for purchase. "free" wifi was basically non existent and if you could connect was only for 15 minutes then had to purchase more.

Pros: This is a fabulous location - great staff and tour bookings. I had a harbour front king room. Amazing views free breakfast with large pool enough to do laps in. Bar , resturant...i'll be staying here again for sure - highly recommended.

Cons: Nothing - everything was great.Stay

Pros: I enjoyed the location on the water's edge; also the friendly, helpful service. The food was good and , and I enjoyed meeting some of the other guests. I have never stayed here before and I was very pleasantly surprised

Cons: I was happy with it all!

Pros: Blue water

Cons: Nothing

Pros: Breakfast was fresh and delicious each day with a variety of foods. The actual island has so much to do from cocktails by the pool to snorkelling and helping you see the best of port vila. Easy to get around and town is a ferry ride away. The staff were so kind and super helpful.

Pros: Staff were helpful and friendly. Beds were super comfortable and rooms very clean. Good quality linen and towels. Views were wonderful. Pastries at breakfast were very good. Ferry staff were very good.

Cons: Pool lounges were in need of replacement as some were broken and needed new cushion covers. Some areas were looking a bit tired and pool was missing some tiles. Food was not always served hot at pool cafe and not enough choices. Prices seemed to be expensive compared to prices in Port Vila. Breakfast could have been better. Lack of snorkeling equipment was a bit disappointing as there seemed to be only a few masks and snorkels available.

Pros: Need improvement in dinner restaurants

Pros: Snorkeling and pool . Staff were good with transport as my husband is getting older. Moved us to better located room , much appreciated.

Cons: Mozzies par for the course at this time of the year. Queries over lack of fruit for breakfast, plenty in the market especially pineapple. Was told hotel have own suppliers, could do better I believe. Bed was initially made up with a covered duvet, too hot, later changed to a sheet, with duvet option.

Pros: Nice friendly staff. Beautiful island with great snorkelling and free equipment hire. Our 2 sons loved kids club although we often found it was closed during usual opening hours. This was not a problem however as someone would open up and entertain the kids with great activities if asked. Special thanks to Timothy and Freddy at kids club! The boys had a wonderful time doing outdoor activities with them. Spa treatments were great. The ferry service to the islands runs 24/7 and shops we easy to access.

Cons: Breakfast buffet was rather limited. The pastries were wonderful but water and fruit options were always uncovered and surrounded by flies. Fruit could also be placed into glass cabinets like the pastries to avoid this. We found it surprising that drinking water was not provided daily which is unusual in any 5 star hotel (only two small bottles provided on arrival for our family of 4)

Pros: Being located on an island just off the city of Port Vila it was close enough to have access to all that was needed but was also separate so you were removed from the busyness of the city. The facilities were also great and the staff were very friendly.

Pros: Our overwater bungalow was clean and comfortable for our two night stay. The island and its gardens are very pleasant as are the dining area, restaurant, bar and infinity pool overlooking the bay. The hotel's ferry provides continuous transport for the short trip between the island and Port Vila for those that want to explore the town or dine onshore.

Cons: We were very disappointed with the in-room service. The ordered toasted paninis were delivered untoasted and so stale they were inedable, with the replacement little better. The cleaner left the unfinished food outside next morning only to be eaten, we assume by rats. The plate, remnants remaining, was still outside our room when we checked out two nights later. The overwater bungalows face the town and were very noisy with loud music from onshore bars until the early hours of the morning.

Pros: With kids it was very good they were so kind and very friendly with our naughties. Stuff they are going out of their way to help you out!!

Cons: Food changed, and quite pricey!!

Pros: The dinner was delicious. The menu we ordered was prepared and cooked to our expectation and tasted absolutely delicious.

Cons: The free WiFi was not working.

Pros: Location was great

Cons: Variety of food on offer was limited

Pros: Staff were friendly and so helpful.

Cons: Nothing

Pros: Cleaning staff were very friendly

Cons: Fan was noisey, hot water didn’t work for days until we made numerous complaints. Expensive!

Pros: Nicely appointed three bedroom units, additional pool up the hill , friendly staff went above and beyond and helped our 10 year old granddaughter plan a congratulations on grandads 60th event

Cons: No fruit for breakfast on day one for more than half an hour. Being charged for broken plates when I slipped on wet treacherous tiles fetching plates for our pizzas

Pros: Location is central and a short walk to downtown. Great to paddle out into the lagoon on the kayaks. Hired a driver for a couple of days to get around the island which the front desk will arrange - although it is easy enough to book one of the the various vans one encounters whilst walking.

Cons: The hot water was inconsistent. The adult only pool was normally empty and would have been great if open to children under adult supervision.

Pros: Beautiful surroundings and well maintained gardens and apartment. We stayed up the hill with sea breezes keeping the temp down no air con needed. No request too much trouble for the staff.

Cons: The water temp in the shower varied between freezing and boiling which was a minor issue for us and didn’t take away from our enjoyment of the property.

Pros: The rooms are nestled in a really beautiful garden setting. Our room was very comfortable. The staff were friendly and helpful and well manored. The Cheff Mr White knows how to cook. His meals were spot on. All too often a restaurant will take your order for a medium rare steak and deliver a burnt offering but not at Poppy's. Great dining.

Cons: The broadband available was very slow and even the paid BB was undeliable in our room. We experienced some difficulty in controlling the hot water in our shower.

Pros: Location

Pros: Pool & staff.

Cons: A little bit dated for the price.

Pros: Close to town and easy to get to other places in Vila. Staff were helpful.

Pros: Good location. Nice room. Good value

Cons: The entry reception. Pool area were dated, and badly maintained!

Pros: Staff

Cons: Dinner buffet, breakfast, equipement

Pros: amazing staff and breakfast

Cons: The internet is only available in the lobby and not in the rooms.

Pros: Staff and pool

Cons: Bed . Food and internet

Pros: Wonderful staff made us feel very special. We had a fabulous time and thoroughly enjoyed getting to know all the staff and other guests. Loved the snorkelling and riding the ferry boat (great that it is available 24/7).

Cons: A suggestion for when things get back to normal. If you reduced the price of your menu (including drinks) by 25% I believe you would sell 50% more. Most travellers don’t mind paying 20% more than locals for a ride in a minibus but the all do mind paying 120% more.

Pros: Location, nice staff and good service. Free tour of glass bottom boat and snorkelling safari are great, plus as the guest, use of life jacket, kayak and a lot of other equipment are all free.

Cons: Hot water doesn't last very long. After 2 other family members had their shower, there is no hot water left for me.

Pros: The resort is very nice and the island simply beautiful. You can snorkel directly from the beach, with colourful corals and so many different species of fish. The snorkelling scene changes at various times of the day. The resort provides free snorkelling gear, the use of kayaks and paddle-boards for guests. A rich buffet breakfast is included in the price of the rooms. A complimentary private boat will transfer guests from Mele Bay to the resort and back.

Cons: The shared bathrooms in the main house would need a bit of attention. There are broken locks on the shower doors and a leaking toilet and shower. A few more hooks to hang your clothes or towel would be really useful. There are no lockers in the dorm to keep valuables safe.

Pros: The staff was extremely friendly and helpful. The staff would go out of their way to make your stay very pleasant. The food was very nice too.

Cons: I did not like the poor maintenance of the property leaking taps showers toilets. Not replacing fans that were broken. Very old mattresses no mattress protector. Everything is old and needs updating. Would never tell anybody to go there.

Pros: The location and layout is great, the snorkelling is very enjoyable and the underwater post office is a fun attraction.

Cons: Wifi did not work in the rooms or the bar.

Pros: I've seen this resort passing by and it looks very nice.

Cons: Had to cancel my reservation a week before my reservation but couldn't get my money back. To be fair, this is clearly stated in their policy. I just wish they were a bit more forgiving.

Pros: Lovely spot, very clean room and nice swimming pool. Gabby is a great host, she can tell you a lot about the island(s). Good place to come back to.

Cons: Nothing

Pros: Close to town and fun bars and great restaurants. The staff and owner were charming, awesome, helpful.

Cons: The rooms were efficient but not great. My bathroom wasn’t clean and the towels old and tattered. I think it was overpriced for what you get. Walls were thin. Definitely a backpacker kind of place. But has all you will need to get by.

Pros: Its a nice budget option. Nice owner.

Pros: Amazing people! Truly recommended! You will feel like home from the first step you take. Love it hope to come back soon!

Pros: Gabby and the staff (Agnes in particular) were super helpful and responsive. Location is also great; conveniently close to the airport and centre if town.

Cons: Property could do with some general repair and fixing up. The fan in my room, as well as the toilet and vanity faucet didn’t work very well. Sink could also be cleaned up a bit more.

Pros: The manager was friendly. The location good Some general improvements will be a good idea.

Cons: Wear and tear appears on the equipment, which I am sure is known factor

Pros: Great place for a couple to spent quality times by themselves.

Pros: The whole property itself is so amazing. The place is clean and location is great.

Cons: What I didn’t like was leaving it to go back to Australia. A really nice place to live at.

Pros: The Pool areas were OK

Cons: Poorly Trained and unfriendly Staff! We arrived and weren’t even greeted nicely, we then were given our room and were overcome with a musty wet smell. We immediately requested a room change which took them over an hour. Only to be given another room that had clearly been doused with air freshener to disguise the musty smell. We later realised that they have a major issue with their aircon in this hotel and were ignorant about it. We had friends staying in the same hotel with us and they also had to move rooms in the middle of the night as they were feeling sick from the smell. The hotel tried to tell them that they weren’t aware of any issues with the aircon which was a blatant lie as we had already made a complaint and later found out others had too. Also the food at the restaurant is rubbish and extremely overpriced as are the breakfasts which they wanted $40 AUD per person for DAILY! Do yourself a favour, don’t bother with this hotel, there are far better hotels in Port Vila that are great value for money and run by competent staff. We checked in to the Fatumaru Lodge for 7 days after this week experience and loved it.

Cons: Food was expensive and not so great.

Pros: The room was sizeable. Good hours and facilities for the kids club. Warm welcome from staff. Staff very helpful especially when our flight was cancelled.

Cons: The food quality was quite poor and very expensive. Considering the price of the room, it was a shame breakfast wasn't included. It was an additional $40 AUDpp.

Pros: Relaxing.

Cons: Nothing.

Pros: The space was positive

Cons: I was travelling on business so it was not really suitable. It is a hotel geared for young families and package holidays. It needs to be modernized and although the breakfast was excellent I only once had dinner, as that experience has enough. Having to go into Port Vile each night for dinner was not appreciated. It has the potential to be great hotel.

Pros: Ambience is good close to downtown .. reception staff is very helpful. Specially willams who was the manager at the hotel he is good he helped us. Close to the airport

Pros: No breakfast

Cons: Would have liked tea/coffee available

Pros: Very clean, great value. Staff very helpful with directions.

Pros: Close to the airport, big room.

Cons: Too much noise during the night

Pros: Lovely people who could not do more to help. But reality was we did not get any sleep due to sheer noise of inconsiderate others in the area, dogs barking, cats, roosters constantly crowing, cars speeding up the road etc. Perhaps had we been provided with a contact number been provided we could have requested someone come down and ask others to quiet down. When we wanted to shower to feel better not an option because no hot water. So while lovely people trying so hard, unfortunately was not a great experience at all. Internet was good.

Cons: No hot water Noise - in every shape and form No one to contact regarding the noise when it continued all night long by inconsiderate others

Pros: Very clean spacious 1 bedroom apartment. The kitchen is well stocked so we were able to prepare meals here. The outside terrace is comfortable and shaded. Its about 20 to 25mins walk into town with a convenience store right next door.

Cons: Wifi was a bit weak.

Pros: A good value facilty & well located to be relatively close to Bauerfield Airport And when my flight was delayed, they allowed me to return & use my room for several hours in the morning after checking out

Cons: The fact they don't accept credit cards for payment

Pros: They need to update the pictures as the kitchenette was very dated with the skirting boards looked damaged, the bathroom was very tight and the pier is no longer there. They tried to charge us twice for pizza we ordered for dinner. once at the bar connected to the resort, that was fine, but on an early departure they tried to charge us again. And they did they same to the people before us. The poor reception had to go back and forth when the manager could have easily come out to apologies. Not good customer service ethics.

Cons: There wasn't much we didn't like just needs to be more updated. Unfortunately we checked out early and checked into the Ramada which suited us more.

Pros: The staff are fabulous. Close to town and restaurants.

Cons: The bathroom. While it was clean it was hard to manoeuvre about.

Pros: Location is good - bed comfortable - room clean. Breakfast was good.

Cons: The pool needs some shade - it was always very warm. Did not eat or drink at restaurant because too expensive. The balcony door was stiff and could be hard to open.

Pros: Facilities across the whole property were fantastic. The staff amazing. Special mention to Gianne & Jennifer. Tilly’s Restaurant & Banyan Bar excellent. Incredible harbour view from room. Room very clean & smelt lovely!

Pros: The location was perfect only about 10 min walk into town,for shopping, restaurants, markets, the port, all buses stopped at chantillys, The staff where fantastic and so friendly and helpful,had breakfast included In the price which was very nice ,a restaurants which overlooked the bay , we had a 1 bed room apartment , very large and comfortable , with air conditioning , has a pool and kayaks to use, couldn’t fault the place for location,staff , amenities and breakfast

Cons: Looked a bit tied , maybe a paint job and bit more maintenance

Pros: The pool was the best feature about it. There was one staff member, Jennifer who was a room cleaner who was the only one that spoke to us and was very helpful. There was also kayaks available to be used but we only found this out in the last 2 days of our stay because no one told us and they weren’t mentioned in the hotel book.

Cons: At first I thought it was reasonably priced however over our 10 night stay I really wish I booked elsewhere. The bed was hard and uncomfortable and sheets were scratchy. The balcony constantly had stagnant water around the edges and the room just did not look like the nice crisp white pictures on the website. Our shower head had very poor water flow and the toilet was not thoroughly cleaned. The bathroom sink splashed water at you when the tap is turned on and the best part is our ceiling fan/light had a mind of its own and would turn on and off whenever it wanted to. We did mention this to a staff member who said someone would look at it but it was never resolved because “they watched it and nothing happened” Some nights we would have to turn the light off 5-6 times before we gave up and slept without the ceiling fan at all. Great in a tropical location. We were waiting in our room for a tour one day and the fan turned itself on and off 3 times. The light on our balcony also did not work. Breakfast was included in our stay however we only had two options which by the end of 10 days we could barely stomach. At first the bread was nice and thick but then it was thin small slices which was always burnt. There was no elevator and stairs were dangerously slippery if you had wet feet. Absolute premium priced stay for a very mediocre experience I must say.

Pros: I’m a regular visitor - feels like home. Love love love

Cons: Ants in kitchen - no air con in lounge room

Pros: I love the location! And also the staffs are very polite and helpful. The respect for privacy is very much admired by myself and my partner.

Cons: Would have loved it if room service was done when asked; staffs would just come around and knock and that was a bit frustrating.

Pros: The service is great!

Cons: The water was disrupted for a while.

Pros: I stayed 3 nights in this motel.Staffs were friendly，room was tidy everything was perfect for the price.

Cons: so far so good

Pros: The place is close to airport which is 35 minute walk.The staffs were friendly and tried their best to help.There is no washing machine in this motel.So I washed my clothes by my hand，also I needed to leave really early to catch the flight so they put my clothes in the dryer 3 times to make sure my clothes were ready to pack.Thank you so much.

Cons: no aircon

Pros: Nothing

Cons: Place needs painting and doing some serious upgrading

Pros: Proximity to airport

Pros: Good price and kind of close to the airport.

Cons: Next to a laud street and pretty hot in the room without AC...and you don't want to sleep with the balcony doors open beacuse of the noise.

Pros: Price, location is great if you need to be near the airport and plenty of busses out font.

Cons: On the main road between the airport and town so can be loud at times. Wifi was patchy at night.

Pros: Nothing
