We have travelled to Vanuatu several times and took the opportunity to try out a different Port Vila accommodation on this occassion wanting to find a place that would be suitable to return to with the children. We booked a basic room, through booking.com (NZD$252 for 2 nights). On check in the staff indicated that our room wasn't ready but... More

We stayed at the Kaiviti for a week from May 3, 2013, after noticing it on our 2012 trip when we walked past it most days. We thought the location was good right from the start, it is on the top of the hill just south of town near Au Bon Marche Numbatu, and Leader Price supermarket, as well as... More

We stayed 6 nights at Kaiviti. Have stayed many places around the world and this is one of the cleanest, nicest and affordable motels we have ever stayed at. Mrs Ashlea Terry is a most peasant person to talk with. She has a wealth of local knowledge and is able to recommend tours and places to visit. The Motel has... More

A variety of different rooms and many with kitchenette facilities should cater for most short or medium term visitors - located close to several supermarkets and restaurants. A good sized pool and nice poolside area provides an opportunity for relaxation or simple but nice meals and drinks.

However, the two bedroom apartment we stayed in was well below the standard of accommodation we would normally choose. It was unchanged in 20 years, and there was a strong damp or mouldy smell...
