“Relaxing resort. A few minor negatives, mostly very positive.”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 13 June 2013 via mobile

This resort is located on the west side of the main island, in Havannah Harbour, which is sheltered by two islands, meaning the water is generally very calm. The resort is a fair way from anything else: about 30 mins by car. You can arrange taxis and trips elsewhere, but we decided to stay on the resort since it would... More

We stayed at the Havannah in May 2013. The Havannah has beautiful gardens and a lovely lagoon setting which is very peaceful. We had a fabulous pool villa at the end Villa 17 which we thought was the pick of the rooms so we were very happy with that. The wifi was really slow but good to have. The staff... More

“Fantastic”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 5 May 2013

Had a great time here, people were lovely, the villas were lovely and the food was great. Havannah is easily the nicest place you can stay in vanuatu. Only real negative is that it is a bit hard to get in and out of town. But they have a free shuttle. Food was excellent, really enjoyable.. Had a GREAT time.

We stayed at The Havannah on our honeymoon on a honeymoon package. This place is everything you want on a honeymoon. It's quiet, peaceful, scenic and relaxing. We stayed in a pool/lagoon villa which was lovely having our own pool just metres from the door. The only downside was we couldn't see the beautiful bay from our bed! The food... More

Our recent stay at The Havannah was by far the best romantic getaway we have had in the Pacific islands.
