The Kaiviti Motel was cheap, basic accommodation. We booked via the www.vanuatu-hotels.vu website. It turned out okay, but we had to pay the full price before we even arrived. The room we were in was shabby, and there was little privacy as it was a ground floor room with a big picture window. (The 1st floor rooms with balconies looked... more

My girlfriend and I moved to Port Vila for change of lifestyle, we stayed at the Kaiviti for 6 months, while building our own place. In that time there was a change of ownership.

None of them came close to the Kaiviti... more
