We recently stayed at Tradewinds and had a great time visiting Vanuatu. Valerie and her staff are only too happy to make recommendations of what to see and do. Rooms were cleaned every day by the house girls and nothing was too much trouble. Catching a bus into town was easy, and they always dropped you right back at the... More

We stayed for two separate nights enroute to different islands. Cheap and comfortable but about a 15 minute walk uphill from town. Any local bus will drop you there for only 150 vatu. More

We stayed 5 nights in a studio unit based solely on good reviews from tripadvisor members, and we weren't disappointed. The resort is in a beautifully maintained garden setting with each studio well sited for privacy. The same attention to detail continues inside - everything you need to prepare a meal is at hand, the king size beds are very... More

We had originally planned to stay here as we passed through on our way to other islands, but stayed for longer as we were stuck because of a cyclone. Unfortunately because of the cyclone we didn't really get to see everything the resort had to offer. The accommodation was made up of good sized bungalows, and self contained so you... More

We have stayed a few times at tradewinds and its always great. This time we stayed 4 nights in total split up by 1 night and then 3 nights at the end of our trip. The studio apartments have a king size bed and a futon. Small dining table, mini kitchen and a nice bathroom. We had a swim in... More

Mitch could have not been more helpful. He and Lyn picked us up from the airport and even took us shopping to get us started in our new country. The house is very comfortable and the best part is it is spotlessly clean. Vanuatu itself gives you a shock, if its the first time, because the whole place needs a... More

Staff and owners at reception friendly, and provided useful information about Port Vila,... More

Fully self contained and located up the back of town. Easy walk into town, bit of a slog up the hill to get back, but hey the bus is cheap and frequent! Fully self contained for cooking etc and has BBQ available. Good saltwater pool. Very good price. Would happily go back. More
