Overall Ratings & Reviews Erakor Island Resort & Spa

Another wonderful stay at Erakor! Gorgeous rooms, super easy proximity to Port Vila and the airport, and exceptional staff. Special shout out to Annie, Lachie, Cliff, Rodney, Blanka and Tahlia — you guys made our experience so perfect.

The staff here are amazing and so welcoming. The food is delicious and the accommodation is beautiful.

Beautiful island resort a short boat ride from the mainland. Boat was available 24/7, free. Comfortable room with balcony and steps to the water, nice beach next to restaurant, food was good and restaurants outside resort are close by via taxi. Great service, they have activities - the Melanesian Feast with entertainment and fire show was excellent, highly recommend it. Good breakfast too.

We loved our stay at Erakor.

We had the best time on Erakor, beautiful resort, and the staff were so friendly, would definitely return.

I cannot rave enough about how fantastic this Resort is. I am totally amazed at the beautiful, friendly, accommodating and absolutely fantastic service we received from all the staff. The villa we stayed in was exceptional, I have stayed in many places and this is at the top of the list. Do yourself a favour and book in to Erakor it is truly exceptional, you will not want to leave. We didn’t want to leave and have decided to come back again.

We had 4 nights at Erakor Island Resort, and had a fantastic time. The rooms were very comfortable, ours had views of the water which was great(thanks for the upgrade!) and the staff were fantastic and couldnt help enough. The restaurant was very good, with the option of themed nights on certain days, and the pizza/cinema night on a Tuesday. More than enough activities to keep busy if you want. Snorkelling straight off the beach. Thanks again.

Family friendly

Gorgeous little units, very clean. Great views. Food is a bit expensive but very good. Fay was our waitress and was absolutely brilliant. Take some water shoes (reefies) as there is lots of starfish and some non venomous snakes you don’t want to stand on. We did loads of snorkeling and kayaking. If you have kids they have a kids club and play area. If you don’t have kids like us it’s big enough resort you don’t have to see or hear them. We only did 3 days, but wish we had done more. We had a room with private pool and beach, was well worth the extra spend. Will absolutely come back here again. Loved it.

Very friendly and helpful staff

Definitely coming back

This was a great deal through Expedia for seven nights and accommodation and flights. We arrived middle of the night and the travel arranged by the staff was seamless. From the 20 minute drive from airport to the five minute ferry trip to the island. We were very thankful for John who was very gracious and assured us that it wasn't a hassle being available to ferry us across after midnight. Our villa was incredibly spacious for two people with a porch overlooking turquoise waters which provided hours of great snorkeling for us during our stay. When we weren't snorkeling, we were lazing in the balcony reading,enjoying the sound of the ocean, and local children laughing across the waters. The humidity was tempered by the ocean breeze which helped dry our clothes quickly. The wifi worked amazing considering it's an island. The staff however are the main asset of this resort. I can't say enough about them. The grounds are gorgeous and immaculately kept. They are always warm, welcoming and incredibly attentive, especially in the restaurant. The lovely Annie will make you feel like a special guest every morning at breakfast, Natalie will check in on you during breakfast and answer questions and provide information. The music played at the restaurant also added to the holiday vibes. Put your privilege and entitlement aside Western travellers, and don't forget to show your appreciation for the care provided by resilient and hardworking Vanuatuan people for your holiday enjoyment.

The ultimate Island Paradise. From the moment we say the picture of the island we knew we wanted to stay there. It didn't disappoint mostly. The welcome, the staff, the food, the view right outside our door, the snorkeling, the peace and quiet for relaxing all 5 star. The food was fantastic, fresh and tasty. The only slight disappointment was the villas. Very dated, broken taps and door handles, bathroom old and needed updating and we felt the accommodation was way overpriced - but the position and to be able to walk out the back door into the lagoon to snorkel and see tropical fish made up for it. All in all the most memorable relaxing holiday. Highly recommend.

our cabin is in need of a update but on the hole our holiday was wonderful

Boat transfer. Quiet. Friendly staff. Didn’t like: no tv, very bad chef for breakfast, tiny room, rooms very expensive compared to other hotels and comparable quality of resorts.

My family (2 adults, 2 kids) stayed at Erakor Island for 8 nights in January 2023. The resort is on its own island, which is a 5 minute free ferry ride from the jetty in Efate, which itself is about a 15 minute bus ride from the centre of Port Vila. The island is stunningly beautiful, with crystal blue waters surrounding the coconut and palm jungle. The resort is very low scale and laid back - accommodation is in a series of detached buildings scattered around the island, with shared facilities including the restaurant, pool area and a few mixed purpose huts. Given the relative isolation of the island, we ate most meals in the resort's restaurant. Food quality and variety was good and the value was fair. Service was sometimes on "island time" but always extremely friendly. Breakfast (both buffet and al a carte options) are included in the room rate. For me and the kids the highlight of the island was the water sports. Snorkelling gear and kayaks/canoes/paddleboards are all available to borrow for as long as you want for no additional charge. The snorkelling around the island was quite impressive, with a large range of tropical fish, coral and plentiful giant starfish. We stayed in a garden 2 bedroom unit. This was comfortable but with a weird layout, as you need to go through the bathroom to get from one bedroom to the other. There is no living area in this unit, so you need to sit outside or on the bed if you want to escape the sun or rain. Overall a fantastic trip!

Very welcoming staff who make each day enjoyable. Relaxing vibe with lots of activites available. Rooms were comfortable and spread out across the island.

Absolute piece of paradise. Enjoyed every minute of being at Erakor. It was so hard to leave. The staff felt like the family you never had. So much warmth and kindness

Great location and snorkelling. Easy layed back environment Lovely staff and enjoyable for the kids. Even better the wifi and tech was basic. Perfect for a quiet island getaway

The property description of our chosen room on Woyif was not correct and we bought this to the attention on the property manager who promptly relocated us to a room more like the description we chose. This was handled well, but poor water pressure in the shower most mornings and a saggy bed were not ideal. The staff were amazingly great and helpful and the dining options were very nice with 5 star service and a team who went out of there way to make you feel welcome. All up a very nice resort but not quite what I expected for waht we paid. But rooms appear to be at capacity at all times, so they seem to have it right for the market.
