We spent 8 days at The Espiritu and had a good overall experience. For the price, I don't think there would be any other accommodation in Luganville that would top it for the style of accommodation (hotel v. resort). The two running the show, Simon and Raymond, were obviously working hard to rennovate the hotel to a decent standard. They... More

This establishment is right in the main Street of Luganville; I'll suggest that it is more centrally located than the main business hotel, the Hotel Santo, whilst emphasising that the main street of Luganville is not that long... I stayed in what was styled a "Deluxe Double Air Con" room. These are situated on the second floor with private balconies,... More

We stayed here during the Easter break and were in Luganville for the primary purpose of diving the Coolidge. Accommodation: The hotel is centrally located on the main street of Luganville, with most places a quick walk around from the hotel. The rooms are basic but clean, have a safe and TV (with dvd player). The toilet is a bit... More

It has a restaurant attached to it, particularly handy for breakfast. The rooms were clean and simple and well priced. We... More

Thanks for the positive review Claire! Im glad Stuart and youself enjoyed your stay with us. It was definitely a pleasure having you guys. I promise I will phase out our vehicles that have reached their 3 year rental period and will be introducing a new vehicle range that is a lot more suitable, but rest assured all our vehicles...
