This was the perfect place for us! They took great care of us, always made arrangements as we needed, the room was clean and we were grateful to have air conditioning coming from cold Chicago. We would definitely choose Poppys for any stay in Port Vila.

The lagoon isn’t great for swimming and its a but tired but it’s what you pay for. You will need to travel out a bit to go snorkeling and have a nice meal but the staff are lovely and the breakfast is ample and the rooms are comfortable.

Quiet, peaceful, but exceptionally good value. Continental breakfast provided was not great, but we had cooking facilities and it was easy to buy some eggs and bacon. And we brought our own coffee. So all good. Restaurant not fast but food was always very good. And staff always very friendly and helpful.

Loved the bungalows on the beach and kitchen and spa. Wifi was a bit patchy but suffice. Easy walk to town. Sports bar next door was good to watch the football. Wish there was a bit more atmosphere say happy hour etc to meet other guests.

Port Vila after the earthquake

Nice resort with a nice restaurant and helpful staff. The downtown was closed because of the December 2024 earthquake. This wasn't the resort's fault, but it meant we weren't able to see much in the capital city.

The property had really nice places to sit and relax. Amazing views. We werent allowed to swim at the lagoon, it would have been a better experience. The staff were so friendly and helpful. Great food quality at their restaurant. We had a continental breakfast not bad to get you through the morning. They had 3 pools, a family one, an adults only and infinity pool. The property was very clean and rooms were cleaned every day. A special thank you to the staff that decorated a special area for our 1 year anniversary, they went above and beyond. We both had a memorable time. We would go back for sure. We enjoyed it thoroughly.

If breakfast would be buffet, it will be better, so that we can take what is required and avoid wastage. Almost all staff were amazing except one or two. Property was advertised with lots of activities in Lagoon but nothing was available. I believe there will be better options with similar price. Some of tours offer via front office where 20 to 40 percent cheaper when we enquired from outside.

We had a two bedroom apartment. It was very clean but everything is getting old. The staff were amazing! We went to the restaurant once and the food was good but we were the only people in the restaurant so we decided to venture out every day to eat.

The property far exceeded our expectations. Everything is in perfect condition, comfortable, private, quiet and beautifully landscaped. 3 great pools- one is adults only!! Good location. Quite central despite town being closed from the quake. The internet wasn’t overly reliable so I’d recommend a local sim or roaming data. I think the wifi issues were also quake related. An unusual time to be in Vanuatu however Poppy’s provided a great accommodation and you wouldn’t even know there was a 7.3 just 2 weeks prior.

Apart from 1 staff member, the rest were really rude and dismissive. Shower was mouldy, breakfast was usually a little stale, sheets did not feel clean/my skin itched like crazy everytime I was in bed. Restaurant food tasted good but staff were inconsistent in providing table service. Wifi was absolutely shocking, I barely even had service in my room so I couldn't even use mobile data. I was advised the lagoon was contaminated when I arrived so no swimming or any water sports apart from kayaking. The resort itself is beautiful but overall was quite expensive for the poor experience.
