We had 2 weeks in Vanuatu last July as a combination birthday celebration and family getaway. The second week we stayed at island Magic and had a fantastic time. We have travelled to Vanuatu a number of times, and the accommodation, facilities and location made this a truly memorable experience. So much so, we have booked again to return in... More

The resort is set in a beautiful location. The four acres of grounds have walking paths, lights, lawns, exotic trees, swimming pool, barbeque pavillion with fridge (including supply of sources), sink and tables. These grounds are maintained daily and are a pleasure to be in. If that's not enough there is nothing bewteen these grounds and the beautiful torquoise waters... More

We recently returned from a one week stay at Island Magic resort. Our family of four (kids 10 and 11) stayed in a 2 bedroom oceanview unit (#10) that was adjacent to the pool. The high ratings that this resort receives are well deserved and was a key reason for choosing this resort on our first visit to Vanuatu. What... More

We have been to Vanuatu a few times now and really loved this quiet resort. We love the fact that it is out of town but close to the Beach Bar, Hideaway Island, Mele Village and Cascades and especially the Tanna Coffee Cafe, which we enjoyed most days. The bungalow was very clean and the bedroom configurations were perfect for... More

We just came back from staying a week at Island Magic. The location is great. It's away from the town, which we thought was good, and close to Mele Cascades, Hideaway island and Black sandy beach. There is no sandy beach in the resort but snorkeling from the jetty is fantastic. Sometimes though the water was too choppy due to... More

We spent 5 nights in villa 1. Temporary managers Brian and Anne were extremely helpful with information about getting around, getting supplies and the local attractions. The villas are very spacious with a nice feel and well equipped with everything you need. The BBQ pavillion is also great. The waterside location is very picturesque and relaxing even when it rains... More

The villas are very well appointed, both bedrooms in ours had ensuites, there was... More

Wow! We decide to spend 9 nights at Island Magic. We were a bit worried as it seemed quite a way out of town. It is but is still easily accessible by "bus". We hired a car which worked out wonderfully but do be careful who you hire from. We stayed in a 2 bedroom apartment which was clean, tidy,... More

If you are into self-contained accomodation and plan a trip to Vanuatu, this is your best choice in my opinion. the resort is run by the nice managers Jane and David who take care of all your needs. They arrange everything for you, from the local bus pick-ups, tour trips, diving packages etc. The resort is well-equiped, cosy and seems... More
