Mike, his wife and 2 daughters were excellent. However the place was affected by nature and there is no electricity, no wifi, no hot water. As other guests have said before, it is a long way from Lenakel, 1.5 hours driving on the dirt road which can be difficult after rain. So I won't recommend staying more than 2-3 nights mainly to see the volcano+- the Iatapu traditional dance.

A truly adventurous and unique experience. Stay in the middle of the Vanuatan rainforest in either a bungalow or treehouse on a property with Mike +family. Mike will help organise every aspect of your time there, from your pickup from the airport to any tours you want to go on. His family will cook all your meals and advise you on exploring the forest around their home. You are deep in the jungle, (requiring a 4x4 to get there), with everything that entails. So expect very basic facilities, though on the plus side there are no dangerous snakes or spiders in Vanuatu. All the people in the surrounding villages are very friendly, all the children will want to meet and play with you. The views over the volcano are spectacular and the property in a short walk from the river and the volcano ashfield. Tours included vsiting caves, hot springs, kustom villages and the volcano. Overall it felt a very safe, welcoming experience that I recommend to anyone wanting to escape the coastal resorts and see how many people really live in Vanuatu.

The fatal flaw was that the actual location of the treehouse was different from the map on Expedia. This resulted in more travel than necessary. Also, there was no wifi and the shower was broken. The staff were wonderful.
