Eratap Beach Resort

Eratap Resort totally lived up to our high expectations and we are sorry we couldn't have stay longer. We spent a week in Villa 1 and despite we were not lucky with the weather, we had plenty of time to taste all the activities resort has to offer and did a couple of half day excursions (Blue Lagoon/Eden on the river and Ekasup Cultural Village). We relaxed under the hut in front of our villa or by the pool, we went snorkeling on the reef in front of restaurant and at Castaway Island, we used kayak and SUP on the beautiful lagoon, played tennis and bowls, used gym open 24/7. Resort offers free daily activities like bush walks or snorkeling excursions or visit to the nearby village but we didn't join it. Food is good and you can take advantage of free service by the pool or in your room. Last but not least all members at Eratap were so kind and helpfull from the owners to the housekeeping ladies to the waiters at restaurant. Breakfast by the sea looking at the dugong swimming and the night fire show were a must. It was hard to leave and we hope to come back soon: we miss you Eratap!

Beautiful setting with beaches surrounding and first class friendly service. We said beforehand at Nanuku in Fiji but this was better. The free use of staff driven boats to take you to pristine islands with fantastic corals was an amazing experience. In our case it was need as for 2 out of 3 days the main beach was closed due to strong winds and currents. The food is good but not spectacular but given this is in Vanuatu it was good enough. The drive along a very pot holed "road" makes it a tricky journey

The locals of Eratap and Eratap Beach Resort will stay with you for all the right reasons. It’s our third time at this resort and it’s always special. We always have a list of things to do (both in the resort and out) and we’re lucky to tick off half the list because we just “go with the flow” island vibe. The resort itself is fantastic, everything is taken care of as guests (food, accommodation, resort facilities). Resort activities cater for all water activities and I utilised them all (kayak, stand up paddling, surfing, snorkelling & open water swimming). The complimentary in-house morning and afternoon activities (preparing local dish, visiting Eratap village, playing soccer with the locals which I highly recommend and so so much more). I like to run, swim and ride whenever I travel and this resort provides complimentary bikes. I was able to run/ride 6km on an out and back course and was always warmly welcomed by the Ni-Vanuatu people. If you’re after an authentic experience with genuine people you cannot go past Eratap Beach Resort. It is worth the investment. Don’t worry about the pot holes around Vanuatu as they allow most drivers to drive to the conditions. Don’t try to cram as much into your day as you can as the island life is to be enjoyed at a relaxed pace. This resort can organise drivers if you want to go somewhere. Nothing is a problem. Each person you interact with that works at this resort you will get to know well by name. They are like family. Thank you Tony, Louisa, Pascalle for everything. Our family all adore all your staff there & we will see you all next time.

This resort is Disneyland for adventurous adults! The service and hospitality was incredible and flawless. The resort offered a variety of interesting complimentary activities that you could do, in fact you could easily spend a few days just exploring the area around the resort . The villas are super comfy and dreamy. It’s expensive but worth it!

Eratap Resort is amazing! Chelsea and her team could not look after us better. The staff are beautiful, so lovely, friendly and helpful. Our villa is very spacious and immaculately clean. The location is perfect, away from the hustle and bustle of Port Villa but only a 20 minute drive away from the city or the airport. You can snorkel straight off the beach in front of your villa. We even had a turtle lay a nest on our part of the beach! Eratap has been heaven on earth.

I stayed at the resort for five days for a friend’s 40th and it was the best holiday I have ever had in my life. The resort is stunningly beautiful, the rooms are absolutely incredible and the view is to die for. You can literally walk off the beach and be swimming in the reef. The staff are the most lovely people, everything you could ever want is done for you, they have a pick-up and drop-off for the airport, they will take you to town, one day when we were hanging around waiting for our tour they noticed and offered to call them for us. Everyone is just fantastic, and the food is magnificent! You can go get a kayak anytime and head out to the nearby island, or just relax in the amazing pool. There is entertainment and activities every day. I nearly cried when it was time to leave, it was such a magical experience!
