Kid-friendly holiday rentals in Efate

Nicole's house was perfect for our stay. I was travelling with my students and we had a lot of activities scheduled in the city so location was perfect. Super easy to jump on a bus if we needed to go anywhere too. The four bedrooms were large enough with beds for everyone. We were a group of 8. The lounge room and kitchen space are both very big and everything was very clean. The garden is beautifully maintained. There is a bit noise at night (mainly Friday and Saturday night) but that's to be expected if you stay in town. The house is very well secured and we felt absolutely safe. Nicole was outstanding in terms of communication and Caroline was wonderful too. I could not have picked a better place for our study tour. Thank you so much for everything we will will most definitely return in the near future. Highly recommended for large groups.

This beautiful villa was perfect for our extended family to stay. The bedrooms were fully self contained and set apart giving us privacy and quiet when needed. The main room and deck were spacious, beautiful and such a lovely place to spend time together and relax. We were so happy during our week there and would re-book in a heartbeat.

This is the most beautiful airbnb we have ever stayed in. We swam with a dugong on our very first snorkel, ate meals on the beachfront deck with a fire burning if an evening and played card games on the verandah with a French wine in hand! We were actually in the house when the earthquake struck Vanuatu (Dec 2024) and it stood strong, we were soooooo well looked after by the estate security, and the cleaning and gardening staff, we never felt unsafe. It’s a very pretty, private and safe spot for a family or couple, I cannot recommend it highly enough!

This place was absolute paradise. We had the most amazing stay, and the most amazing host Paula. Paula arranged for a local mama to cook dinner for us and they even made us a home cooked cake for our honeymoon. We are so grateful for all of their hospitality and the memories we made on our honeymoon. We even saw two turtles right outside the air bnb. We can't wait to come back for our wedding anniversary!

We had a fantastic time at Loic's place. As described it is about 45min drive from Vila so having your own transport is highly recommended. A representative form the management company met us at the airport and we followed them the property as it was after dark. This was really helpful as otherwise we might have struggled to find the entrance (its easy in daylight). Devils Point Road is unpaved but didn't really need a 4WD (we were there at the end of the dry season). The property is pleasant and set in a fantastic location with world class snorkelling from the private beach. Sam and his family, who live next door, look after the property and kept us supplied with Paw-paw and coconuts! Mele Beach is about 20 mins drive away and the Friday night Fire Show is highly recommended. We enjoyed our time there and recommend it for anyone looking for a quiet retreat in stunning surrounds.

The Reef House is an absolutely beautiful property perfect for a large family or group. We arrived shortly after a devastating earthquake and despite this the house was immaculate. Obviously there was some minor damage around the property but it was dealt with quickly and efficiently. Asnet the house keeper is wonderful. She comes weekdays and you’d never know she was there. The waters edge property and availability to swim whenever you want to is the icing on the cake.

We really enjoyed staying here, so much so that we extended our trip! The owners had carefully thought of everything we needed in the house, the bed was super comfortable and it was fun walking to the beach each morning! Thanks!

This place was perfect for us; tranquil, beautiful and so relaxing. Richard was responsive and Billy, who looks after the place, was very helpful

What a find! The space overlooks Port Vila harbour and with a choice of seating, you can enjoy perfect sunset views. The space is clean, private and well laid out. But what stands out as much as the view is the friendliness and hospitality of Jane and her husband. Nothing is too much trouble. It’s like you’re staying with friends. We stayed over my birthday and Jane went out of her way to make it special. Thank you. Also, if you love dogs, they have four of the cutest and best behaved doggies.

Had an amazing stay, gonna miss waking up here in the morning. Antonette was very helpful 😁

Everything positive that others have written about Carmen and her place is true. When you arrive in a new country, the best thing is to be greeted at the airport by a friendly face and taken to accommodation that has all of your needs catered for, right down to there being breakfast supplies… and that what we got from this Airbnb. We only stayed one night, so I can’t really comment on the location - although the taco restaurant up the road had some nice food. Thank you Carmen and Roger

Thank you so much to these two! They were very friendly and helped us find the place as well as the keys to open the Air BnB. They got us bread, butter, and water as a complimentary snack, which we greatly appreciated! The space was clean and suited us very well. She even offered for her son to drive us to the city, and he kindly did so. Highly recommend :)

It was not what we had pre-conceived it to be, but we loved it. It was at the end of a point with only 3 houses in maybe 30 acres of slashed grass area. There was surf on one side and a calmish inlet on the other. The surf is not really accessible because it is on coral, but the other side is very good for snorkeling. We had a clean, modern basically one room studio with the sound of surf to sleep by. Interaction with the young kids next door was great, and catching the bus into town was easy. Buses (Toyota HiAce people movers) come every few seconds and cost 150VATU per person. Have the correct change though.

Had an absolutely wonderful stay at Janet's. The communication was amazing and my husband and I felt right at home from the start. She was always happy to help organise anything that we wanted to do. We stayed for 10 days and it was so special getting to know some of the villagers as well. Highlights for us were sunsets and walks on the beach, snorkelling at Top Rock and Pele and doing weaving and making laplap with some local ladies. Janet's food was amazing and we loved the companionship of Janet's dog, Brownie. 100% recommend this as a wonderful place to stay. We will surely be visiting again.

We enjoyed our stay at Morgan's place. The location is fantastic - an easy walk to the shops, restaurants, bakeries, etc. We needed a place where we could cook and Morgan's place allowed us to do that, although it would have been nice to have more utensils and tableware in the kitchen. My partner worked from home and really appreciated the little work/study space set up at the back of the room.

That's simple, if I come again to Port-Vila I'll go to this place again. Richie's family made ma staying there great, thanks for everything ! 😊
