Warwick Le Lagon - Vanuatu

Warwick Le Lagon - Vanuatu

10/10 Excellent
"The Warwick is a resort with many facilities to enjoy, you almost don't need to leave! The buffet breakfast was fantastic with lots of options. They also have a chef to make fresh omelettes and eggs your way. The rooms are starting to look dated but still functional. We chose a lagoon view room which gave us a beautiful view over the lagoon, out to the ocean and across to Erakor Island. The pools are great, but could use a few more banana lounges near them and on the sand overlooking the lagoon. They have water sports you can try like kayaks and catamarans. There is also an option to go out on a small boat and snorkel for $1500VT per person. We only found out about it from other resort guests. They do have some snorkeling gear but it isn't well maintained or that clean so would bring my own if I went back. We had a treatment at the spa. I don't indulge in spa treatments often and while it was nice, the room was old, walls a bit dirty and the towels were old and smelt funny. Overall it is a great resort for couples, families and friends."

"We had a great stay at Holiday Inn Resort. We were able to get interconnected rooms for our family of five and this worked out well. The rooms were comfortable and had everything we needed. We loved the pool and all the little spots to relax, and the staff were friendly and helpful from the moment we arrived. Buffet breakfast was reliable - pizzas at the pool were fantastic and we loved the fire show! Only real downside was the location, a shuttle service to and from town would have been helpful, as the independent taxi driver service was a little hit or miss. We did walk to the supermarket which was doable, but did feel a bit isolated - that said, it was quiet and had a relaxing outlook over the lagoon as a result of its location."
