Eratap Beach Resort is a small, exclusive luxury resort hidden among the coastal forests of Eratap, on Efate Island, 10 minutes from downtown Port Vila.

 

Surrounded by pristine reefs, uninhabited islands, and lush tropical foliage,  the resort is located 20 minutes south east from Port Vila Harbour and the airport, on a north-west facing peninsula, with the lagoon on one side and the ocean on the other.  There are 3 separate private beaches, a large pool, 8 acres of tropical landscaped gardens, stunning beachfront restaurant, a Day Spa and plenty of water activities to really take advantage of this resort's location, including snorkelling, surfing and fishing.   There are two 5m motorboats for guests to use free of charge.  They come with a driver to take you wherever you wish to go.  They are also available for longer periods, for a small fee, for inshore fishing for wahoo, tuna and mahi mahi.  Big game fishing can be arranged on a charter boat from Port Vila.  There is also a daily complimentary shuttle bus to Port Vila, going out in the morning and returning in the afternoon. 

 

The beachfront restaurant offers a selection of local and international cuisine, using the freshest locally grown organic fruit and vegetables, Vanuatu's famous organic beef, fresh seafood or lobster, and a wide selection of fine Autralian, New Zealand and French wines to enhance your meal.  Your complimentary cooked breakfast is also served here, overlooking the lagoon.  

 

There are only 12 private villas, all situated round the peninsula right on the beach, and each having an uninterupted view of the beach and the ocean beyond.  There are five 1-bed,  four 2-bed and one 3-bedroomed villas plus 2 romantic Honeymoon Villas.  The Villas are all airy and spacious with high ceilings, french doors to both the separate lounge and bedroom areas, air conditioning and ceiling fans.  They are tastefully decorated with modern Melanesian and Asian furnishings that provide a calm, luxurious, and tropical ambiance.  They have ensuite facilities and also an outdoor private courtyard shower for a more tropical feel.  

 

This is an uncrowded, luxurious resort that exists in harmony with the community, and its surroundings, where you can enjoy the real Vanuatu in absolute comfort in one of the most beautiful and natural settings imaginable.
