Paradise. Le Life resort was perfect for our large family group. We spent 4 nights and had an amazing time switching off from the outside world and immersing ourselves in nature. Accommodation is simple with no TVs or modern day luxuries which is perfect for the surrounds and location. They were earlier this year hit badly by a cyclone which wiped out the restaurant and they are still recovering from this. The reef here is incredible with some of the best snorkeling we have experienced in our visits to Vanuatu we even saw whales one day. We had many visits from lovely dogs and many of tasty meals. All the staff are incredibly friendly and go over and above to assist you. Thank you Jacques, family and staff we cannot wait to return!

Relaxing getting away
We absolutely loved our few days at Le Life The staff were so obliging nothing was a problem. We loved the food even though they had a shortage due to the Cyclones and earthquake. The beach area was excellent and we were able to do some snorkeling just in front of our room. Need to watch the currents (I would like to say don’t go because we want to keep it a secret for ourselves) Hope you enjoy this hidden gem like us.

This place is perfect few days away from Port Vila, I absolutely loved it. There were a couple of bad reviews which concerned me but when I got there I was very happy. But if want perfectly querky and your not a perfectionist then you will fall in love like I did and I was so sad to leave. It’s better then the photos. Few hiccups with power and water but always very quick to fix , wifi variable which I was ok with me - but if these thing bother u then maybe stay in Port Vila as those things are related to the area. the restaurant was so cute, pet bird and cat and 2 really lovely dogs, There is a father and daughter from Australia who owners and work very had and have put a lot of love into the place Villas have had s recent upgrade, breakfast was included which choices like omelette , French toast, crepes (I thought it was just going to be bread and jam so I was very happy..Though the baguettes in Vanuatu are amazing snd I stopped my low carb diet for them, food menu was great and food delicious . The ambience is beautiful and so this place is very good value for money. Staying north Efate for a few days is perfect. It’s fairly remote but enough to do in the area. Would add the blue pools east on the way to Le life and the snorkeling west of Le life, can’t recall the name but ask the staff about 20 mins. Staff are lovely and happy to help with anything u need.We hired s yellow mini moke when you go through the villages EVERY body waves every one is so friendly

Location was fantastic, bungalows lovely but the wait for service at the restaurant and bar frustrating. We waited for an hour for breakfast one day. Staff very friendly. I suggest you bring a few groceries before you come, unless you have a car and can drive to the store.

Not really a resort in the Aussie sense
If you love camping and caravaning with the associated insect life, love being off the beaten track and love spectacular places, then this is the place for you. The staff very helpful and always smiling. Meals at the restaurant were good value. This place is a work in progress they were hit hard by the cyclone and are in the process of rebuilding. A lovely laid back place away from all the touristy resorts.

Amazing 'real Vanuatu
A rustic, beautiful 'real Vanuatu' experience. Welcomed into the family as soon as you arrive. Privacy galore BUT every opportunity to get to know local people. A kind of social enterprise really. Worth every cent and more. Didn't want to leave!

Wonderful staff. Fantastic place for animal lovers
The hotel is situated in a unique location for Efate, being the only resort present in the northeastern part of the island, right in front of the ocean. It is very close to Blue Lagoon and Eton beach (approx 20 minutes by car). Jacques and the staff were wonderful. Very good food. Lots of animals running around the place, including a hilarious parrot and a goat. Being in the middle of nature obviously means you will find the usual cockroaches and spiders in the room, but the hotel provides antibug repellent. Also ideal for camping.

Heel mooie omgeving
De bookingsites geven niet echt de werkelijkheid weer van de te boeken tenten. Deze vond ik niet echt geweldig. Ik heb toen een kamer gekregen. Deze kamer was niet schoongemaakt en de hele week is dat ook zo gebleven, waarom weet ik niet.....het is een prachtige omgeving, het mooiste plekje van het eiland. De lokale mensen die er werken zijn echt fantastisch. Tis een aanrader !!
