Clean room but shower tiles not drained to outlet (filled with water). Staff generally nice however getting cocktails seemed to take a long time (>30 min) in some cases and after chasing up bar staff. Check was not great - promised check at 2pm didn’t happen until closer to 3:30pm with no apologies. Generally a good stay, food good however things could be done to ensure timeliness on some aspects that you expect in a resort.

Go to Vanuatu

These guys are coming out of a natural disaster that has threatened their economy. They rely heavily on tourism and it felt really good to be supporting these lovely people simply by being there. There are signs of difficulty from when you land, but arriving on Iririki Island you see it hasn't been damaged and they are working hard to make the stay enjoyable. The people are laid back and so friendly. We had a great relaxing time.

Loved the friendliness of the staff but for a reputable resort the service was a bit lacking. For the times we dined in Azure our drinks did not arrive until we had finished our meal. As we were on holidays we like to have a drink or two in the evening but due to the extreme slow service we did not bother. The bed in our unit was the most uncomfortable we have ever slept on and it squeaked any time you moved or rolled over. The toilet seat was broken and there was a large loose tile in the shower. I visited this resort about 20 years ago and it was nothing like it is now. This place is idyllic views wise and has so much potential - maybe open a cafe where people can get a sandwich/roll etc and a drink/milkshake rather than having to order a meal. The buffet in the morning was disappointing as the hot food was always cold. Hate being so negative but for the amount of money charged for accommodation, food and beverage it was not good value.

I liked that you could easily access the water sport activities and it has beautiful waters surrounding it. I did not like the check in process as I had to wait 2 hours then had to go back to the reception to ask for my bags. For check out i asked if I was able to check out 30mins or 1 hour later and i was told no. Considering I waited 2 hours for check in they should have as courtesy allowed me this.

Unfortunately expectations from our visit 20 years ago were shattered. What was an exclusive upmarket resort where you were treated as a guest is now a money making enterprise where you are processed as a client. I guess all things must change. If you are looking for a spot near Port Vila where most things work and are merely after adequacy it's fine. But if you are after something special you are probably better off looking elsewhere.

This was our 3rd time visiting Vanuatu, but first time at this particular hotel… The resort appeared somewhat tired and lacked the idyllic ‘island getaway’ vibe. Firstly, there was a severe shortage of sun loungers by the pools and at the beaches (at Snorkelers Cove and at the Watersports Beach you will find only a handful) - the single sun lounger on every room balcony could be relocated to the pool areas where they most likely will be utilised more. Secondly, the dining area is a bit run-down and feels more like a canteen rather than a resort restaurant - however, all of our meals were very tasty. Thirdly, on the subject of food and drinks - very overpriced. I was thinking this may be due to cost of living increases and supply due to the earthquake, however some patrons at other hotels informed me that they weren’t charged nearly so much for drinking and eating at their resorts…AU$ 6.50 for a can of coke, a local beer AU$ 11 and AU$ 11.50 for 4 thin slices of not-so-cheesy garlic bread, are some examples… Our accommodation (Island Fare) bathroom was worn, but clean, and all of the staff were very lovely, helpful and friendly. On our side of the island (the town side), there was a fair bit of noise throughout the day from the supply ships that were docked, and other building works that were happening (which can’t be helped, obviously). We love our holidays, and always enjoy ourselves wherever we might be, however we were a little bit disappointed this time :(

While a very nice place to stay, I found Iririki not very accessible friendly. My husband has an injured back and nerve damage and found it quite a challenge to get around AND up the 3 level of stairs to our room. The room itself was nice enough but very plan and had an empty kind of feeling with no decoration at all. It had a very strong paint smell which did dicipate throughout the week however was still prominant and the first morning we both woke up with quite bad headaches. The jucuzzi was good but smaller then expected and jets were not clean. Azure restaurant was a nice spot however the pricing of the menu was quite expensive for both food and drinks and food was lacking in flavour, very disappointing. We did get a meat pizza from the sunset bar which we also found to be quite flavourless. The staff were very friendly, although we did ask for 2 extra pillows at reception and didn't get them until the next day when we asked our room attendents a second time. The pools were amazing but I also feel like a "spa and resort" should also have public jucuzzi/whirlpool in the pool areas. Upon talking with a few other people, they were also under the impression these would be in the resort.

Our eight night stay was a delight. Our accommodation was clean, comfortable and spacious. We took the full board option, which in our opinion was a must and a real value add to our booking. The food choices are varied and the quality of food is outstanding. Some of the cooking was questionable when it comes to med/rare meat or not rendered lamb cutlets, but they definitely do seafood very well. What makes this a great holiday is the island of Iririki and the most happy friendly staff. Nothing was a problem and only too willing to do their job with an ever present smile and happy mood. The pool areas were very nice and well appointed. The beach and snorkelling areas need upgrading, but are still clean and serviceable.
