We had a one night stay before heading to an island. Staff were very accommodating and helpful with transfers. We liked our room with a water view - very comfortable. The pool was great. We had a rate with breakfast which was ok but croissants were burnt.

Pro's A beautiful location right on the Water. All Staff from the Manager to the cleaners go out of their way to make you feel special. Nothing is a problem. Close to shops and places to eat. Con's The place could really do with a refresh and new paint and pool tiles.
Malcolm, 8-night trip

The location is excellent, about 1.5 km to market and central of the city.
Algis, 14-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

We thoroughly enjoyed our time at Fatumaru Lodge. Beautiful, tranquil, peaceful, clean, and very well priced. We enjoyed the pool, the hammock near the ocean and the view from our beachfront unit a great deal. Request a top floor room for added privacy. The staff were lovely. It’s a 20 minute walk to town centre, or 150vt pp on the local bus, which you can easily hail at the front of the accommodation on the main road. Highly recommend!

Excellent stay for overnight or a few days
Great stay. Easy check in and out. Staff friendly and helpful. Well equiped room with beautiful view to lagoon. Close enough to walk into town for meals, but room is set up for self catering also. Only stayed overnight prior to flying home the next day and is convenient to airport. Resort was happy for us to check in a little earlier and also check out a bit later

Unexpectedly lovely stay.
Beautiful setting. Rooms overlook the water's edge, with a hammock on the little beach, next to a trickling stream. The pool is lovely and was kept clean. Breakfast was a delight. The bed was extremely comfortable. Staff lovely. Excellent!

This was a great quiet hotel, staffs were friendly , views were great, baby sitting services were top notch, hotel arranged a dedicated person for my child and even brought her to swim in the pool! Food was nearby , no issues getting a bus right from the doorstep! Will definitely come back again! 5 stars!
Yilin, 8-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

It was lovely to be able to have a morning swim in the lagoon each day. An easy walk into town and multiple waterside restaurants and bars. The hotel is a great compromise of being just far enough out of town to be quiet, but still walkable.
Caroline, 3-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Great little resort, close to a few restaurants and bars. Excellent customer service by the staff there! I would recommend it to anyone visiting Port Vila

8/10 Very good

Nice room. Location short walk from town.
Arttu, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Lovely stay at Fatumaru Lodge, parts bit dated as expected but all in all was ok for the price. Power problems persisted in our unit the whole visit with power going off every now and again but staff quickly reacted turning it back on. Would suspects too much of a load on the mains power. Hot water in shower was a bit of a trick to master but once you got the knack of it you could have a great shower. Would recommend asking for unit Walla which was upstairs but great private view towards Port Vila.
Allen, 10-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Was a clean and relaxing place to stay for our last night in Vanuatu. We did experience some issues with the electrics in our room switching on and off, but It seemed to come right eventually. Overall a pleasant stay, thanks!
Lewis, 1-night trip

Very quite and beautiful. It is somewhat far away from the next property, however, the city is still easily in walkable distance. Pretty much perfect
Christian, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Beautiful lodge with pool and beach access
Beautiful, semi-secluded lodge still walking distance to restaurants and Port Vila central district. The decor is just right and the balcony a huge perk. Nice kitchenette too. All in all, a good place to spend a few nights. Note: the upper bedrooms have an open upper wall in the toilet/bathroom, so there is little "noise" privacy if travelling with a companion. Something to keep in mind if this is a concern for you.
Danica, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Fatumaru Lodge is a hidden gem! About 10-15 minute walk from the main strip of shops and right on the water which was lovely. Only downside was the wifi/tv being pretty unreliable, but really not important in a beautiful place like Vanuatu!
Rachel, 7-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

The property was lovely, overlooking a lagoon part of the ocean.. great for kayaking. Lovely bungalows, pool, flowers. Friendly, helpful, staff. Rooms nice and cool. Shower leaked a bit but not a big deal. Pleasant pool area. Easy to get a mini van for rides into town or Mele beach on the road by driveway.
Charlotte, 3-night trip

8/10 Very good

I loved staying at the lodge. It is close to a lot of Port Villa's attractions and town. Lovely staff and facilities. My only issue was the hot water. I only managed 2 days out of 7 to get one. The weather was warm but not warm enough for a cold shower. I would still stay again at the lodge but would hope the hot water system will improve.
Julie, 7-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

We have stayed at Fatumaru Lodge many times and we love it, it feels better then home. If you like to kayak or stand up paddling you have it right out your front balcony. (kayaks and stand up boards are provided free of charge) If you like to swim they have a pool just out your back door, the pool area has lots of shade and a BBQ you can use. You get beautiful view of the sunset that cover the sky in lovely colours which we look forward even night. The rooms have very large king size bed with a small kitchenet. The staff can book your airport transfers at the best price and they transfers staff will have a sign with your name on it at the airport gate. When taking a bus or taxi around town every driver knows how to get to Fatumaru Lodge. It about a 20 minute into town and you pass many bars and restaurants and long the way. We have plans to come back to Port Vila and we will be booking here again.
Lesley Rae, 10-night trip

8/10 Very good

The staff at Fatumaru were very friendly and helpful. Comfy bed with large mosquito net (essential!) and a beautiful water view to wake up to. It's walkable to everything yet is super quiet so easy to get a good night's sleep. As from other reviews, the dripping shower was still there so would recommend bringing ear plugs. Also make sure you don't leave any food crumbs around as an ant party will arrive without delay.
Michael, 3-night trip

6/10 Good

Whilst the rooms have been built in a beautiful way which reminds of an Italian albergo the property is in need of some TLC. Our shower head was half blocked and dripped all day and night. The bathroom tiles are grubby. Beds and rooms have been tidy and there is a little outside kitchenette and seating area on the balcony. Pool would also need a clean. Staff have been very friendly and helpful. Good options are a short walk or bus ride away which didn’t bother us. There is a great cafe/ bakery down the road in the shopping center and heaps of restaurants in town.
