Cat makes this hotel extra special

5.0 of 5 bubblesReviewed 18 Sept 2023via mobile
They make absolutely everything so incredibly easy. This combined with the quiet peaceful tranquility ensures you fully relax.

Super impressed by:
- gluten free food selection
- laundry basket a nice touch
- packed breakfast for early departure
- cat with kittens sums up why this place is so special (not a plastic tick box resort)

The perfect place to relax and rejuvenate and with no kids allowed found it very peaceful so if you want to party with loud people this is certainly not the place for you! Beautiful surroundings, beautiful water and the friendliest staff you will ever meet - nothing is ever too much trouble. They certainly aim to please and never disappoint. Delicious menu with lots of choices, breakfast, lunch and dinner all included. Day spa to relax after a morning snorkelling just outside your doorstep just an added bonus! Stayed in a waterfront villa with a beautiful view, our own plunge pool and day bed for those lazy afternoons. Been missing the place since the day we left and cannot wait to return. Found our paradise - thank you all for a great stay!

We stayed in a waterfront pool villa, the view was outstanding and the decor inside was beautiful.
Loved all the staff who couldnt do enough for us, they are very well trained.
You can do as much as you want or as little, the inclusive rate gives you 3 a la cart meals per day which were made primarily from locally sourced produce.
We would stay here again in a heart beat.

My wife and I celebrated our wedding anniversary at The Havannah in Vanuatu and I cannot overstate how amazing this resort is. The food is out of this world and the location is stunning. Highlights were the picnic on an uninhabited island, seeing dolphins and turtles metres from the beach and the staff. We stayed in a waterfront villa and it was so luxurious. We borrowed bikes from the resort and cycled to the local village and everyone is so welcoming. We took a half day trip to the waterfalls and blue lagoon with Arthur as a guide organised by the resort and he made the day so fun. I’ve visited Fiji and the Maldives and The Havannah is number 1 for us. The only thing I could improve is that there isn’t a gym onsite but that really is a minute criticism. Can’t wait to go back.

Room tip: A half day or full day trip with Arthur a local tour guide, organised with reception was well worth it.

I can not say enough good things about The Havannah. It is so peaceful and beautiful. Even though there are many other people there, you feel like you are the only ones. The room was decorated beautifully, and the staff were so friendly, attending to your every need, with a few little surprises 🙂 The food was varied and delicious, more than enough. Alcohol drinks were extra. We walked up the driveway after dark to look at the stars. Amazing. The water is crystal clear, and we found a little section of the beach that was perfect for a swim. We are already planning another visit. It is a little pricey, but so worth it

We have just returned home after a weekend at the Havanna seriously pure paradise! The staff were outstanding, such beautiful friendly helpful people, food was amazing the rooms are excellent and the surrounds are truly wonderful. I honestly can’t say a bad word about this place!
Our driver and tour guide was Sal from a neighbouring village and he went above and beyond to show us a great time, he truly is a gem!
