Vacation rentals in Port Olry

This place is absolute paradise on Santo Island!! We had the most idyllic stay. We enjoyed paddling the calm waters, watching the turtles and dugongs swimming past and drinking fires next to the bonfire. It’s perfectly situated, close to blue holes, restaurants and town if you need supplies. There is plenty to see and do however we found it hard to leave the lounge chairs on the magnificent front deck. The hosts were fantastic and answered all of our questions, helped us to book local taxis and ordered us some local Santo beef (highly recommended!)

The Jetty is in a beautiful peaceful spot on the water in Surunda Bay. You will see picture perfect sunrises and you might even see a turle or two, if you look closely. The Jetty is well equipped and has everything you need. There is a couple of really great restaurants a few minutes drive away and close to most attractions on the East Coast. Robyn the host is very responsive and helpful. My husband and I have stayed here twice now and enjoyed our stay both times.

Our stay on Lataro/Satoshi island felt like a fairytale. Denys and Marcella were fantastic hosts, always helpful and friendly. The scenery is some of the most stunning we have ever seen, and we are well travelled. The beaches, reef and fish were untouched and easily accessible for snorkelling from the beach. We even saw turtles! The local cows, horses, cats and dogs were friendly and fun to be around. The vila is comfortable and has everything you would need for a longer term stay. We were worried initially about the lack of air conditioning but even in the height of summer the temperature was fine. The big fan in the bedroom meant we were comfortable at night (even chilly at times). We recommend planning your meals in advance and being prepared for your supermarket trip in Luganville when you arrive, as you will not be able to duck off the island easily to buy more food. We would absolutely come back here and recommend everyone come and experience this beautiful slice of paradise.

We loved our two weeks at Lonnoc Beach bungalows with Kalmer and his family. We had a spot right on the beach front to camp. There is wifi included in the price and use of kayaks for free :) we had clean showers and a toilet and the restaurant was available if we needed it. If you fly into Santo get to Luganville town and jump in a public minibus, they usually leave after 2.30pm and will cost you only 500vt each. Then during your stay you can hitch hike to and from town or along the east coast for 500 per person. The luganville market have great fruit and veg for cheap too - mango’s and pomello’s for 15p!! During our stay we felt part of the community, making friends with Kalmers big family, going to church, eating with them and sharing stories. We definitely recommend camping here (if you have your own tent) and you’re on a budget but want to travel to Vanuatu.

Bungalow on a beautiful beach, clean, simple, efficient. We would have stayed there if we could. Canoeing available to go to champagne beach just next door. Breakfast included every morning on the terrace 2 steps from the beach. Restaurant next to the bungalow with many choices. Daniel is very responsive with communication. The only downside is the transport offered, is quite expensive from the airport to the cottage (8000 Vatu for 2).
