Paradise Cove Resort

Really beautiful spot. Very secluded and sheltered from winds that can be intense at other resorts. It's an amazing spot with fish and snorkeling and quite central for Vanuatu. Food was surprisingly good. Very nice and personal feel at the resort thanks to Marc and Constance.

A slice of paradise! Beautiful surroundings with a gorgeous tropical garden and private beach. We had a spacious self-contained thatch-roofed villa with wonderful wooden and wicker furniture, and our own lanai with loungers and a hammock. Constance is a very gracious, friendly host (and fantastic manager!) and the staff are all very friendly and welcoming. Everything is centered around the beautiful garden and the restaurant, which has an upper terrace and a lower, smaller wooden pavilion by the water. The wifi at the villa’s can be a little spotty, but that is because of the earthquake proof walls, and you soon work out the best spot to use it. There’s snorkels, kayaks and bicycles to use at will, which was absolutely wonderful. You can snorkel straight off the beach. There’s markers for where the reef gets beautiful, with an abundance of tropical fish. We went every day and had a blast. The villa offered everything we needed and more, such a lovely and relaxing place. Keep in mind that scented and unscented detergent is being used for the bedding and towels. If you’re allergic, make sure to bring your own. We very much enjoyed our stay at Paradise Cove!

We had visited this resort a few times on our last trip to Vanuatu as day guests and knew we wanted to come back and stay here, so we did it. The villas are huge with everything you need though some might miss having a tv. The wifi was not strong in the units but you soon work out the best spot to find it. The snorkelling straight off the beach in front of the resort was excellent. We used their complimentary bikes a few times. We had one of the two resident cats as a regular visitor which was really nice. Constance who is one of the owners met us when we arrived and was absolutely the best hostess. The staff were wonderful and great at their jobs. They all went out of their way for any questions and requests. Would totally recommend this resort for anyone wanting a quiet getaway.

Paradise Cove is well named as it certainly is Paradise! We had an absolutely amazing stay here, it was just perfect. It’s a truly special place that feels so personal and has so much soul unlike other commercialised resorts we’ve stayed at. Marc, Constance and the team are always around and happy to help you on anything you need. They are all lovely people. The reef is amazing to snorkel and they have all the snorkelling kit you need - reef shoes, flippers, snorkels, the works! As well as kayaks and paddle boards and bikes to use too, all for free. The food was amazing, delicious cocktails. The beach gets an absolutely awesome sunset so we spent many happy hours relaxing on the hammocks watching the sun set. This was third resort we stayed in Vanuatu and it was BY FAR the best. We absolutely love Paradise Cove and will be back with our family. Alicia and Arvind

I am not staying at the resort, but one close by. I heard that the Paradise Cove Resort is one of the best places to eat, this side of the Island. Well, it is true. Absolute splendour. I was greeted with salsa and chips. My Mojito and food arrived together. Both the presentation and explosion of tastes were equally impressive. If you’re staying nearby, make a reservation here. Beautifully built, presented with food and service to match. I understand the appeal. They have great tourist pick up and drop off services and a water taxi service for the area ase if travel to Port Villa centre. Everything you want and need without the isolation. Grateful I ate here early in my trip. I’ll be returning so often, they may think I’m a guest. Strongly recommend.

Lovely small place. Really friendly staff. The coral is very nice, you can snorkel straight off the beach. Sunsets are magnificent. Sometimes a challenge to get there from town by pub. transport

It’s my eighth time staying at Paradise Cove & it never disappoints. From the delicious restaurant food, beautiful snorkelling, peaceful surroundings & magic sunsets every night. Would highly recommend as the place to stay in Port Vila. The owners Marc. & Constance will welcome you with open arms.

Where to start? We love Paradise Cove. This was at least our fifth stay and it has never disappointed us. Constance & Marc welcome us like old friends, as do several of the long serving staff. The villas are beautifully furnished, comfy beds (with aircon in the bedrooms,) plenty of hot water in the bathroom with nice amenities too. Villas are serviced daily by the lovely ladies, the gardens & beach areas are kept immaculately by the outdoors crew, and the restaurant staff (chefs & serving staff) are friendly and great at their jobs...the food is fabulous as are the cocktails. |We lay around reading and relaxing, went swimming and snorkeling (so encouraging to see so much coral returning after the cyclones in recent seasons) and went on some walks around the area. There are bikes available but we like walking.|The resort is quiet and laid back so if you're after a party time type holiday perhaps choose elsewhere. |We'll happily return anytime!
