Avis Whispering Palms Beach House - Absolute Beachfront

Fantastic Location easy to find and get there. The staff are the most caring and Loving people made me feel family. Surroundings are beautful and relaxing most important private. The accommodation spacious and so close to the beach a bid tick in my books. Thanks Whispering Palms

Marcello and Tina's property is a piece of paradise. Everything about our stay was wonderful. Marcello sent plenty of valuable information, tips and tricks about navigating Vanuatu (great for us first time visitors), and offered to arrange for transfers. Getting to the house was very simple and we're so glad we bought groceries before heading to Whispering Palms' side of the island (another pro tip: there aren't many ATMs--even fewer that work--outside of Port Vila, so get your cash before leaving PV!). The property is just gorgeous, the house had everything we could have wanted. We especially appreciated the thorough book Marcello and Tina prepared offering contacts, activities, and more advice on how best to enjoy our time there. The caretakers of the property, Silvi and John were just lovely people and so very helpful. Then there's the beach and its water. The reef right out front offered some of the most beautiful snorkeling we've ever done. The quiet is incredible, you're almost all alone out there, in our own piece of tropical paradise. One thing to note is the internet, as noted in the listing is pretty spotty. So just prepare for that in advance, or consider getting a local SIM card. We would love to go back at our earliest opportunity! Thanks Marcello, Tina, Silvi and John!

We enjoyed our stay despite the unusually bad weather with high winds blowing straight onto the beach for most of the stay. When we finally got to explore the coral it was amazing. We also saw turtles poking their heads up. The compendium could do with a bit of updating, we were especially confused by the map indicating that the Numbatu supermarket was close to the airport when it was the other side of port Vila! Perhaps because we couldn't swim because of the weather, we were sitting around a lot and it would have been really nice to have a couple of sun loungers to relax in. Francesca's became our second home, a lovely place.
