Nice, private, individual bungalows. Beautiful gardens and decking beside the lagoon. Staff are very friendly and helpful. Free breakfast was more than adequate with fresh tropical fruit. Requires some tlc but for the price it's easy to overlook.

We had the most enjoyable stay at Lagoon Gardens (Villa Chaumieres). Owners and staff were kind and helpful and we felt like we were welcomed into their own home here. Miriam took us out an an amazing day trip to explore the surrounding hotspots for both tourists and locals. I would highly recommend anyone to book here.

As a solo traveller I had the best time here and even extended my stay for a few extra nights! The bungalow was spotless and surrounded by nature and even if I happened to be there on rainy days it was just so relaxing and peaceful! 10 min ride from town with an easy access to buses just out front. All the staff is quiet amazing, kind and attentive. Big shout to Myriam and Morgan for always looking after me and for the great service&recommendations! Will definitely be back ♥️

I really enjoyed my stay. The staff was super friendly and helped me booking tours and getting to places. The bungalow had everything you need (fridge, microwave, kettle, cutlery...). It was easy to catch a bus into Vanuatu town for 150 Vatu. The breakfast (coffee, tea, toast, jam, eggs, pancakes, peanut butter, fruit) with a view overlooking the water was lovely.

The vegetation around the property was lovely. We had a view of the lagoon but it was unsafe to swim or snorkel so we didn't use it. It appears that the place has had a tough time with Covid and other matters. Morgan was great and helpful. Pictures on the website are older. Several areas on the property could be updated.

We had a fantastic time at this location. The staff were so helpful and couldn't help us enough. There is a relaxed vibe at the location, and the reviews regarding the great breakfasts are true! It is super easy to catch a bus into the main town or even stroll. There is a supermarket close by and our favourite bakery the Shefa. We highly recommend this place!

Nice, basic accommodation
Nice spot to base yourself to explore Efate! The included breakfast was really tasty (toast, fruit, coffee and eggs or pancakes for our two days). It was good to learn that you can use their kitchen to prepare your own meals as there is no restaurant on site. There is a supermarket and more accommodation serving meals within walking distance. Our room was above the reception, so there was a bit of noise from downstairs as we sat on the balcony at night time, but couldn't hear it once inside the room with the door shut.
