What a gem! Stayed 3 weeks during Feb/March and could not have been happier. Fabulous location on the lagoon, delicious food, great accommodation. Hosts Ursula and Richard and their friendly staff helped us arrange transport, organise a picnic and readily catered to our vegetarian palates. The complimentary breakfast consisted of a varied selection of fresh fruits which we occasionally supplemented... More

After being to Tanna, Port Vila seemed like tourist crazed hell, one night at Coconut Palms in Port Vila and wasn't sure I wanted to stay... Vila Chaumiere however is away from the tacky town, and the room was superb! The hosts and staff were great, the hosts especially helpful in finding transport and arranging things to do. Vanuatu is... More

We stayed at Vila Chaumieres for 2 weeks over Christmas but have only now had the chance to write our review. We can't say enough about Vila Chaumieres. It was wonderful, quite intimate and set in beautiful gardens right on the lagoon. We stayed in the lagoon view room that was comfortable and very clean with everything we needed. Many... More

My partner and I have just returned from a trip to Vanuatu and spent our days in Port Vila at the Vila Chaumieres. It exceeded expectation, even after reading the good reviews.

We stayed at Villa Chaumieres for three nights and had a relaxing and enjoyable time. Nothing was a problem for Ursula and Richard, who were always close at hand to ensure our stay was going to plan and we were being looked after. Our garden villa was tidy and cool, although we appreciated having the air conditioning on the warmer... More

Although not on one the beaches and a little way out of town, this small resort has charm and is well worth the visit. It sits on a very pretty lagoon where while having breakfast you can watch the locals fish and paddle around in canoes. Service and food is excellent, everything happens with a smile and the owners are... More

We stayed here for 10 days and it was so lovely. Our room was above the restaurant and facing the lagoon. We witnessed the most spectacular sunsets from there. Another bonus was that it was for adults only, so no screaming children. The owners from Australia were so helpful and friendly and their staff were the same. They couldn't do... More

Vila Chaumieres is located about 4 kilometres outside the town of Port Vila, idyllically set on the stretch of water between the main and second lagoons. It is so peaceful and calm, you totally relax as soon as you walk into your room, we stayed in Room 5 which has by far the best views out over the water. The... More
