“Very good holiday! Going back again next year!! Staff were so friendly!”

Great hotel, amazing views, we stayed in a harbour view room and woke up the the sunrise over the harbour it was stunning!! Rooms were clean and were cleaned daily. The hotel resurant was very well priced & food presentation was great. Staff were so friendly & helpful. They recommended tours & activites. Me & my fiance did a tour of the whole island, we did Zorbing (masssive big blow up balls your sit it and roll down the hill) it was so fun!! Helicopter ride is a must!! The colour of the water of the other islands is beautiful! We have never ever seen anything like it! We did a beach horse ride, this was great however we did not realize it went for 4 hours! We couldnt walk the next day... very sore! We did a sunset cruise, very relaxing. Shopping was good, very cheap DVDs that are still in theatre here in Australia. Overall, very good holiday, will be returning to the Moorings!

“Amazing views, clean rooms”

We spent 2 nights in a Harbour front Queen room with it's own private deck right on the harbour. Although the rooms are a little small, the deck offers a lovely place to sit and take in the spectacular view of the harbour, or watch the sun set. We chose the Moorings for the first couple of nights of our stay so that we could be within walking distance of town to do some shopping, change money and eat out a few times before heading out of town. It's a nice stroll along the harbour front into town taking only a few minutes. The rooms had everything that we wanted, A/C, bar fridge and breakfast included. The bed was very comfortable and the shower had good pressure and lots of hot water. The continental breakfast included cereals and breads, tea and coffee, juice and pancakes. It was all that we needed to start the day. The pool was very clean and a welcoming place to cool off after a walk into town. All in all, we would recommend Moorings as somewhere to stay for a few nights, or longer if you have lots of tours/day trips planned.

“Fantastic!”

Excellent Hotel and Staff! Had a wonderful time at the Moorings. All staff were friendly and more than helpful. Rooms are very clean and comfortable. Pool is very clean and the view of the Harbour is fantastic! I would definately recommend friends and family to stay at the Moorings.

“Vanuatu people”

ALL people in Vanuatu are incredibly friendly so it should come as no surprise that the staff at Moorings are too...

“Nice Hotel, Quiet Location, 5 minute walk to downtown”

My husband and I recently stayed at two hotels in Port Vila. This was definitely the nicer one. The mattress and pillows were really comfortable. They have a beautiful pool and an incredible view from the pool and surroundings. Plus, it was only a short walk to downtown. (Note that downtown can be noisy with all of the traffice so it's much nicer to stay within a few minutes away from it. ) The hotel is directly on the waterfront and a least a little bit away from the street, so you can avoid some of the traffic noise. The other hotel we stayed at was only 5 minutes away, on the same road, but the traffic noise was so loud I had a hard time sleeping. This hotel was much nicer. Wish we could have stayed here the whole time.

“A delightful surprise”

I made the booking at the Moorings at last minute and was really impressed by the quality of the hotel service and its location. the room i stayed in is really stylish and quiet, with a lovely veranda at the back. the hotel pool is awesome although the beach is literally at the door step of your hotel room. The location is great too, as it is not too close to the town centre therefore you get to enjoy the quietness you want on a holiday. all in all, an unexpected highlight of my vanuatu trip.

“A LITTLE DISAPPOINTED...”

EXTREMELY FRIENDLY STAFF, ALWAYS WILLING TO HELP, GREAT DRINKS AT THE BAR. THE VIEW FROM THE POOL WAS AMAZING, THE HIGHLIGHT REALLY. GREAT LOCATION TOO, WALKING DISTANCE TO EVERYTHING DOWNTOWN. HOWEVER... I AM NOT FAMILIAR WITH THE STANDARDS OF ACCOMMODATION IN VANUATU, BUT IN SYDNEY THE CONDITION OF TOWELS AND LINEN PRESENTED IN THE ROOM WOULD HAVE BEEN UNACCEPTABLE, THERE WAS NEVER ONE SINGLE PIECE THAT WAS CRISP WHITE CLEAN; THEY HAD STAINS, LOOKED MORE LIKE RAGS, WERE YELLOW-GREYISH, OLD...ONLY REALLY USED IT BECAUSE I DID NOT HAVE MY OWN IN MY SUITCASE. AND ALSO MAKE SURE YOU DON'T GET SICK DURING YOUR TRIP LIKE ME, BECAUSE THERE IS NOTHING TO DO IN THE ROOM, YOUR TV HAS ONE CHANNEL ONLY THAT WORKS "HALF-STATIC", STILL ON ANALOG SIGNAL. BATHROOM COULD USE A LITTLE UPGRADE AS WELL, BUT IT DOES THE JOB OK. DID NOT FEEL LIKE I GOT WHAT I PAID FOR, AS LATER ON I WAS OFFERED REALLY GOOD ROOMS ELSEWHERE FOR ONLY $20/NIGHT EXTRA. PROBABLY NOT THE BEST PLACE FOR HONEYMOONERS :(

“port vila accomodation”

noisy of morning with banging doors no gentle self closers apart from that good

“Moorings Hotel Vanuatu”

The staff at Moorings were very friendly and helpful whenever we required it, whether it was too book a day tour or get directions they were always ready to assist. The restaurant and poolside bar were also great. The negatives were the room size, it was smaller than i had expected. No in room safe or storage cupboards. Hot water was very touchy, hard to get the right temperature. Queen size bed actually two single beds held together by the fitted sheet. I would definately go back again, for the staff and the easy access to the town but perhaps some room upgrades are needed.

“Not for young families!”

This hotel is probably great if you are after a boozy holiday around the bar, but if you want a family holiday, the rooms are too small, its too noisy till late at night, its right on the busy main road, and the location is pretty average.
