Hideaway Island is located on a small coral atoll with a wide range of accommodation to suit including rooms offering shared facilities . Just 15 minutes from Port Vila and then a 5 minute boat trip , the resort is within a marine reserve . If you get excited about Nemos ( clown fish ) then this is the place for you to visit . There are sections of this reef that are absolutely bursting with fish life and snorkelling is easy for the kids too as it ’ s just off the beach . There is a fully equipped 5-star PADI dive shop on site and they are excellent at customising trips to suit .
Enjoy the Melanesian feast on a Thursday night , where you can try an array of authentic dishes while being serenaded by the band . We also recommend the village walk on Tuesdays , the locals are proud of their island and love interacting with the guests . Hideaway is a no fuss place with a low key vibe and is highly recommended if you like to dive , swim , snorkel or just laze the day away .

Sunset Bungalows Resort is an intimate property , providing a highly personalised service for its guests .
Leave the kids at home and enjoy your Vanuatu experience from this popular resort designed exclusively for adults .
This peaceful abode is ideal for a relaxing getaway , but is also a great place from which to base yourselves and explore the city of Port Vila and its surrounding attractions as it is still centrally located .
There are a range of accommodation options to suit your needs , however we recommend a room on the lagoon side where the views are sensational . Or for something extra special why not treat yourselves and upgrade to a room with a private plunge pool .
Be sure to take advantage of the daily happy hour from 5-6pm and sample some of the delicious cocktails on offer . We also hear the Santo beef is delectable so if this is on the restaurant menu , you must give it a try .
