Deco Stop seems a popular place for travellers to Santo to stay at. I'd say a lot of the people who go there often go back. The owners, Ben and Kim, are lovely people who love ensuring your stay is as p,wasn't as possible. The view from the deck/pool/restaurant is beautiful and made it hard to get out of the... More

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Deco Stop. Kim and Ben make you feel welcome from the moment you arrive, they are helpful and have great suggestions to make your stay in Santo a good one. The food is AMAZING!!! We loved eating there and can't complain about any of it at all apart from our expanded waist lines on... More

It's like coming home, staying at Deco Stop. This time it was just hubby and I staying. Kim had suggested we have Room 12 - the refurbishment of this room is fantastic. Very classy. We enjoyed the quietness and garden setting of the room (slightly away from all the other rooms). As usual, the food is fresh, organic and locally... More

Deco stop far exceeded my expectations. Kim and Ben, our hosts, made us feel like welcome friends. Rooms are gorgeous with polished wooden floors, air conditioning, comfortable beds and great hot showers. The food was wonderful and the eye fillet steak was as good as any top quality restaurant in Australia. Dive locker area is well equipped and massages were... More

From the minute we arrived we felt like valued friends. Our flight was over 7 hours late but Ben was still there to pick us up (having taken several trips to the airport in case we got in on another flight.) The staff are fantastic especially Phily and Merrelyn and always willing to have a chat or help you out.... More

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
