Hotels with Parking in Anse Vata

Although there were always long queues to check in and no air-con at the reception, the staff was friendly and 'try their best' to help us. A few things that we hate about this place: was hard to communicate with the staff on the phone and at reception as only a few of them speak a very low English; they promote free wifi but they only give you 200MB per day and if you want more you need to pay AUD50; the bedroom service is really late (around 5pm), which was very inconvenient for us and the cleaning was average (we preassume that the staff didn't have the right equipment to clean properly: they used brooms instead of vacuums for example). The things we enjoyed: the bedroom was nice and had a fantastic view to the ocean, the swimming pool is beautiful and was clean, the location is perfect. They tried to charge our card twice (at check in and check out) but we have already paid through Trip ahead to our arrival, they might have some issue at their system. We appreciate that Trip responded positively to out complaint anout the wifi issue.

We arrived early and were able to access the room before time, very professional, smiling and pleasant staff. We were upgraded to a one bedroom apartment instead of the studio and had a restful night despite the noise from the portable air conditioning as the one in the apartment was broken. Very practical you do not need towels or shower kit, everything is provided for you. Magnificent and breathtaking view of the ocean. Access to shops, boutiques and restaurants located just below the hotel and in the surrounding area.

Just had a lovely week long stay at Le Lagon Stayed in a suite Anse vata street side. Got a good deal on Agoda. Would upgrade the suite next time as it was a bit noisy outside. Would definitely stay again though. Positives: good size, clean, pleasantly presented, huge comfortable bed Great location - we ate breakfast at the l’atelier bakery down the road and got their filled rolls for lunch - amazing value. Was also 2 stores that sold alcohol and food. Beach was lovely Swimming pool nice - great sun beds and temp not too warm Negatives: No toaster, no sharp knives in kitchen. No wine glasses No shampoo conditioner etc - only pump soap provided Bath tubb painted - needs replacing. Difficult to climb in and out of for shower if have mobility issues No door on icebox freezer so took ages to freeze water Advice: If on budget eat at bakery and picnic it. Buy Brie and pate from the stores nearby for snacks. Store next to bakery has the better wine selection. Being a chilly bin/esky and water bottles to freeze for day trips There are no nighttime buses from lemon bay - was a bit nervous to do the walk at night do we only ate lunch at lemon bay - go to Babar cafe Anse vata restaurants v expensive. Avoid Le tripica (tiny portions). Casa Italia great but needs booking. Pizza and pasta does huge pizzas can share. Vietnamese Along Beach good. Go to duck island. If not doing yellow boat deck hair package 2500 get the 1000 grey boat and go to the left of island for nice sand to sit on. Great snorkelling. Can snorkel off rocks (climb down) in lemon bay Maître island bit disappointing / poor snorkelling, no turtles Hang out at beach in evening with the locals - really nice vibe

We had a 3 night stay in Noumea staying at the Ramada Hotel. The staff in all parts of the hotel were very friendly and helpful!! They gave great service!! We had a view of the race course which was quite pleasant. We liked Anse Vata area and found the best way to get around was to catch the local bus (into the main town area). (It was cheap, easy to do and very well airconditioned.) The swimming pool was lovely and shaded in the afternoon. The room was spacious and had everything we needed (plumbing needs some work). There are plenty of cafes etc a short walk away and we enjoyed swimming at the beach. The promenade area is lovely.
