Paradise Cove's promise of good coral off the jetty is a bit of a stretch and I feel that new and updated brochures should not use this lure to entice visitors .. there might have been live coral there a year or two back, but much has been destroyed by cyclones. We prefer our coral live, coloured and unbroken. However,... More

My wife and I had a week at Paradise Cove on our honeymoon and absolutely loved it. All the rooms are separate cabins with plenty of personal space, an airy bedroom and living room, private courtyard with hammock and lounger and a kitchenette. The site is very green and peaceful. There is fantastic snorkeling off the jetty (where the boat... More

My wife and I just soaked up six most peaceful days in Vanuatu at Paradise Cove Resort. We were looking for comfort, quiet, privacy, warmth, good food, good snorkelling and friendly but not intrusive staff. We got the lot and more. The resort has just 10 bungalows and caters to a maximum of 30 guests. It is about a15-20 minute... More

If you are looking for a beautiful setting, peace and quiet just to do nothing, then this is an amazing place. Set 25 minutes drive from Port Vila only 10 bungalows are nestled in stunning grounds. The staff are outstanding and nothing is too much trouble. We spend an "exhausting" morning snorkelling, lazying and reading in the shady beach area,... More

The hosts and staff at this small resort can't be faulted, and the setting is excellent too. I had read about the good snorkelling prior to our visit, and the easy access to the reef and variety of fish species were as expected, including a small white tip reef shark. For novice snorkellers there would not be a better place... More

My husband and I (late 50s), along with our daughter in her late 20s, stayed at Paradise Cove Resort for 5 days. We chose this resort after looking at reviews on Trip Advisor, and we weren't disappointed. There are ten units in the resort, set out as five semi-detached villas in tropical gardens. While you can't see the sea from... More

Enjoyed 8 wonderful days, great food, snorkelling, private jetty makes water access so easy. Snorkelling was amazing, and watching ships and boats passing by from lounges, very relaxing. My Birthday dinner, staff set up the table, chairs, potted ferns, lamps & candles on the jetty. Nothing was too much trouble, Managers, barman, table attendants, cleaners & gardeners, all were welcoming,... More

We stayed here for 7 nights in November for about the third time. We find the bungalows with their high ceilings quite cool , with the assistance sometimes of the overhead fans, and the bed was very comfortable which is important to me with some disc trouble. We come from Cairns, but even so we found the local temp quite... More

Thanks so much Tim for the wonderful review... you definitely managed to capture the magic of Paradise Cove Resort with those fantastic underwater photos; if you have any more feel free to shoot them over! FABULOUS STUFF. Look forward to welcoming you back here; I'm sure your underwater friends including that Moray Eel will be waiting! Thanks again! More

This is our third visit to Paradise Cove, each time with other family members, and each time more deeply satisfying. The small scale of the resort creates an intimate and tranquil atmosphere. The beguiling layout of the main path and gardens draw you in from the entrance, past the individual bungalows, and down towards the private beach. The gardens are... More
