This property is on a Lagoon and to go to a beach with the ocean is a little bid difficult. You should consider to rent a car. The staff is very friendly and helpful. They showed me how to stop the little buses , where you can reach the city and also one nice beach. They have a wonderful garden and a small pool is also there. It was a pleasant stay.

On going maintenance is constantly needed due to climate and age of buildings. We had a comfortable stay though. Staff were helpful and provided the few items missing from our room. Only a short walk from a big supermarket and a local produce market.

The staff was very friendly and helpful but the property not as described. Run down especially the bathroom. Towels looked dirty and kitchen very limited. There was no shuttle to town, had to get transport ourselves, TV only had 2 channels and internet hardly working. No access in the rooms and password constantly changed

Property has a nice pool and restaurant on site. Need to take a bus or hire a car to get anywhere else (other than to the little supermarket about a 5 minute walk away).
Rooms are in dire need of an upgrade, beds are super squeaky, mattresses are not very comfortable. The kitchen and bathroom especially needs to be fixed as even though they're cleaned daily look dirty. Bathroom floods with every shower as the water leaks from the shower.
Staff are lovely, Kim the manager is more than happy to help with what's around or organise transport, always a smile on her face. The ladies who clean the rooms are super friendly and do the best they can.

This review is made in the following context:
1. Our to stay at Tropicana Lagoon Apartment was about 5 weeks after Vanuatu was hit by 2 devastating cyclones;
2. Vanuatu is a poor and an undeveloped country and therefore ease of access to modern comfort is limited.
We stayed 7 days and was allocated a family room opposite the pool. Upon our arrival we were warmly greeted by Kim the site manager. She was the perfect hostess for the whole duration of our stay.
With respect to the room facilities, the air conditioning units are old and not of acceptable working standard if was in Australia. However, this is Vanuatu. We set the temperature to 16 C and with the assistance of the ceiling fan, they provided sufficient comfort. Like the a/c the refrigerator works but is not of acceptable working standard. It was erratic and there were days when the fridge did not work. In the final days we discovered that the adaptor used to plug the refrigerator is loose. Finally, the shower tap leaked. Having made the above remarks, overall, our stay was pleasant and comfortable.

Very disappointed - nothing like the website photos, very old, dated and more like a backpackers. A very costly exercise - we only stayed one night and lost money on 6 nights due to it being inside their cancellation policy. Very convenient for them seeing that it looks like a regular occurrence where guest check in and leave (without their money). You cant swim in the lagoon and it's far from town. Stay away.

Small quiet resort. Good meals in the restaurant. Kim in the office went out of her way to help us.
Small things could improve the stay - soap in the bathrooms, fresh towels without having to request them etc. Air conditioning unit struggled so room was warm - although cooler than outside temperature.
Beds were uncomfortable to the point our son slept on the living room furniture.

Booked a layover day and the hotel was fine but do not expect what is shown on the pictures as they were taken many years ago no doubt. definitely in need of a serious make over as well as the terms on booking.

If you’re looking for a quiet holiday this will suit you perfectly. The staff were super helpful and friendly. And though the chef was sick a couple of times, when we ate at the restaurant the food was fresh and enjoyable.
Looking for an exciting night life forget it.
The rooms were bright and clean but could benefit from a renovation.
Kim the manager couldn’t do enough to help us.
5.0
property only recently reopened after covid but they have done a good job getting ready. the managers kim and freddy do such a great job looking after the guests they really do go above and beyond. they make great food in their small restaurant really worth a try. only thing to note compared to website is that there is no oven or washing machine in the rooms and wifi is turned on and off to the room so if its a last minute booking you may not have wifi. Seems this is an operational decision to save a few dollars as they progress . hopefully the owner will come up with a better option as its really the only negative thing about the place.

We loved the spacious feel and layout of the apartment facing the beautiful pool. Loved the beach and lagoon too. Sarah was so kind to us, great customer service from her and the Chef. 🙏

This resort is small and has a laid back 'beach shack' vibe. I really loved staying here and felt at home and at ease with the lovliest staff who work there. Rooms are tidy and comfortbale with everything you need for your stay. Would recommend for a chilled out holiday.

Even though we were only a 10min drive away from town, we appreciated how quiet it was. Felt like we weren’t on mainland but on an island. The lagoon was amazing! Best thing to look at first thing in the morning. Pictures don’t do it justice and the staff were a bonus! So lovely and always willing to help whenever we needed. 10/10

On our 9th holiday in Port Vila, we booked the Tropicana. I cannot say enough about it.
We always found the local people very friendly, but the staff here was exceptional. The food excellent. Great selection on the menu for all meals

Loved our apartment on the lagoon, so tranquil and beautiful. The resort has undergone renovation and has excellent facilities now. We loved the new StandUp Paddleboards. The resaturant offers very good food, my husband had the best steak ever ( he claims). Service can be a little slow but who cares, we’re on holidays. Overall a very nice place not far from town.

Great place close to town. Quiet location on the lagoon, easy transport to town. Very nice room with great views, friendly and helpful staff. Had a fab dinner at the restaurant Took a bit long but was worth waiting. I normally stay right in town. Will happily return to Tropicana next time I'm in Vila. Thanks guys.

Wonderful staff, very friendly and involved with our stay, took a personal interest in us and what we were doing, caring and helpful (eg took an interest when I was unwell 1 day and helped get our clothes dry when we had wet weather), loved talking to the staff about Vanuatu and their village life, cleaners made our room beautiful with fresh cut flowers from the gardens and made us a special towel 'cat' when we were leaving.

We have just returned from a 10 day stay with our family of five. The staff went above and beyond everything we needed was catered to and we had a fantastic time! Location is close to town - just a bus trip away and the Lagoon is beautiful to relax by with a cocktail!

Not a great experience, place feels dated and no atmosphere. They downgraded our room on check in, restaurant service poor, many items not available, shower cold. The staff were apologetic, but not much they could do. I don’t like leaving a bad review but hoping to save others the muck around. We stayed one night and then moved down the road to a much better place.

I enjoyed a very pleasant stay with Tropicana Lagoon. I was there to attend Oceania Melanesian Athletics Championships 2018 at Korman Stadium as my son was competing for Australia, and the Tropicana’s location was perfect for this. The room I had was great although the air conditioner was not working all the time. The hotel was clean and I enjoyed the swimming pool. I thought the free wifi offered as part of the deal was also great as the wifi speed was very good. The staff was excellent - always so helpful with nice smiles. Overall - a very positive experience for my first ever visit to Vanuatu and I would definitely return to Tropicana Lagoon again.

The food was good and easy access to Port Vila and other attractions. The staff were friendly and helpful. The wi-fi was disappointing and rarely worked. Sadly dogs across the water were noisy during the night.

The condition of the 2 bedrooms apartment is below standard. one room without air condition and the air conditioners are old and without proper maintenance. The services is fine, staff are helpful and friendly.Location is not too bad. while by comparison with others similar price resort or hotels, not value for money i think.

We stayed for one day only because of the hurricane nearby, we booked this hotel because our flight was cancelled and we could feel that this is a very nice place to stay for vacation.

Lovely apartments, would have been nice to stay longer. The restaurant on site was nice and made you feel really special dining there but the breakfast menu was a little sparse. If you planning on staying bring your own food for some meals as the room had a great little cooktop.
