We stayed at Tamanu for 4 nights and thoroughly enjoyed our time there. The room was cozy and beautifully maintained, offering a perfect space to relax. The staff were exceptionally helpful and welcoming throughout our stay. Fiona and Anthony did a fantastic job managing the resort — their attention to detail and warm hospitality really stood out. A special thank you to Anthony, who went above and beyond by personally returning our wallet after we accidentally left it behind in the room. We are truly grateful for such kindness and care. Highly recommend Tamanu for anyone looking for a memorable and stress-free getaway!

Very satisfied. Beautiful scenery, considerate service, the hotel provides free shuttle bus to the city center from Monday to Saturday, and the price of airport pick-up is reasonable. The restaurant is average, it would be more perfect if there were more dishes

We stayed at Tamanu on the Beach for 9 nights and couldn’t have had a better experience. The rooms are beautiful, the views are stunning, the restaurants serves some of the best food on the island and all of the staff are incredibly friendly. Nicholas makes the best cocktails to enjoy on the beach while you watch the sunset. 🌅

We recently stayed three nights at Tamanu on the Beach and absolutely loved it! It’s the perfect spot to unwind — set away from the busyness of Port Vila, it was the ultimate place to relax and soak in the beauty of the final days of our trip. The rooms were stunning, the beds incredibly comfortable (we had the best, most solid nights of sleep listening to the ocean right outside), and everything was spotless — the property is impressively well maintained, especially given its oceanfront location. The food? Absolutely divine — every single meal was a 10/10. And the staff made the experience even more special. Huge thanks to Fiona, who went above and beyond to make sure we were comfortable, and special mention to Alice, who welcomed us with the warmest energy and truly nothing was ever too much trouble. While we connected with Alice, every single staff member we encountered was fantastic. We genuinely loved our stay and will definitely be back! If I had to mention one thing for future travelers, it’s that the property is about an hour from Port Vila, and the road is unsealed with plenty of potholes — but honestly, don’t let that deter you. Just be prepared for the trip in and out, because once you arrive, it’s so worth it.

At our third attempt, we got to Vanuatu and managed to stay at the Tamanu. Exchanged cash at the airport – rate as at 13/4 was VUV150 to GBP1 and VUV75 to 1AUD which didn’t seem bad. Tamanu picked us up for our 40 min transfer to the resort. Warm welcome when we arrived and our bungalow – 1 bed with plunge pool was gorgeous – great views of the sea, clean and modern and a large bathroom. Great WIFI in all areas of the resort including the room and nice to have fresh milk in the fridge for tea and coffee. Not much in the area so mainly ate on site and the food was tasty, varied and reasonably priced. Breakfast was included in the rate and this included A La Carte options which were great. Also popped next door to the Pizza place one afternoon for a late lunch and that was well worth the visit (5 min walk along the beach) and as a small business trying to get going they would welcome the support – cash only there. Large pool area which was great to relax in and by. Plenty of quiet areas around the resort and a great place to chill out. Met the owners who were very kind and helpful. All the staff were great and couldn’t do enough for you. Would recommend a stay at Tamanu – you will not be disappointed.
