Not bad at all. the view was great and the pool awesome. It's not the cheapest in Luganville but it is ok value for money. Friendly staff and the massage was great. Food was also very good and the staff gave us lift into town if and when we needed it with in reason. Diving cleaning facilities are top notch.

We stayed at Deco Stop for 4 nights in late April 2013. From the moment we arrived, the staff were lovely, they referred to us by name. Although we didn't meet Ben or Kim the evening we arrived, they both came and introduced themselves to us the next day. We were in a room that could have easily accommodated a... More

My only regret is that we had to come home. We had a great week in Santo, and the Deco Stop Lodge is the perfect base to explore from. Ben and Kim really go out the way to make you feel welcome, and have great local tips and knowledge of activities and things to do. We used Santo Island Dive... More

Very disappointing stay. Fill in manager was best described as a rough diamond - loud, abrupt, penny pinching, talking on phone and to staff about things that should be kept 'back of house'. Although advertised, the pool was out of condition and closed, the scooters were not available to rent because the owner was away, use of airconditioning incured an... More

Thank you for your review. Firstly I would like to apologise for the apparent behaviour of our fill in manager and the issue has been addressed. This was our first time away together as a family and we trialed a temp manager which it seems was not as successful as we had hoped for. Regarding the refund of the cancelled... More

We stayed 3 nights at Deco Stop and had a great time. Awesome base to explore Luganville from - its a little bit of a walk down the hill to town but you get a better feel for the town that way and you can always catch one of the millions of taxis back up the hill if it gets... More

Ben & Kim had a care taker in while they were back in Australia which made our stay disappointing. The fill in was incredibly rude to staff and often accused them of things she later realised were her mistake, pushy, and only recommended tours where she knew people, not necessarily because they were good. The pool was also full of... More

Loved our stay here. Nothing was to much trouble. If you needed anything or wanted to know anything, Ben and Kim were very helpful and so were the staff. The food was fantastic, breakfast, lunch and dinner. The menu for luch and dinner changed every night and always went to bed full. I have no hesitations in recommending The Deco... More

Great rooms - ocean view rooms are worth the extra. There are fabulous open views from the deck with a partially covered pool so you can choose sun or shade - can be busy with restaurant guests at lunch time. Food is fresh and tasty - don't miss the Date & Toffee Sticky Pudding - fantastic!. Owners & Staff are... More

We loved our stay here. From the friendly and helpful owners and staff, to the comfortable rooms, and beautiful surrounds, Deco Stop was a delight to stay at. Of all our stays in Vanuatu, this was definitely the highlight. We felt at home. The restaurant was of particular note. The food was on the high end of what you would... More
