Vanuatu is an unspoiled South Pacific paradise which should be on every traveller’s bucket list – especially if they want adventure and relaxation all wrapped up into one idyllic getaway. You can’t beat Vanuatu for friendly people, and the resorts in Vanuatu are tranquil places to take time out and be pampered.
It is a sparkling necklace shaped island paradise with a tropical climate, pristine beaches and scrumptious food. You can also find an array of awesome night life in the capital of Port Vila which is very handy to most of the resorts in Vanuatu. Choose between restaurants, cafes, casinos, music venues, cinemas and bars – including the traditional kava bars where you can try the national drink. Kava was first used in ritual ceremonies but the locals now use it for relaxing as well. Karaoke nights and trivia nights are popular with the expats, visits and Ni Vanuatu people alike.
The resorts in Vanuatu usually offer their own selection of evening activities alongside their Melanesian feasts, and you can also head into Port Vila to explore all the available night life options. Some of Vanuatu’s well known bars include Mamu Bar and the Wild Pig Hotel. The Wild Pig Hotel specialises in the exotic locally brewed Tusker beer which is a big attraction for travellers. Most bars also offer activities such as large screen televisions and pool tables to keep you entertained.
The hosts at the resorts in Vanuatu will be able to point you in the right direction for the type of night life you are looking for. It you’re keen on visiting a night club, Rumours is a resort based night club and a good place to party the night away. Shakers Café and Nightclub is popular with overseas visitors. It’s a fun party venue with good food and exotic drinks as well as excellent music to encourage you onto the dance floor.
Port Vila is home to several beer gardens, and one of the recommended ones is the Anchor Inn with its special meal deals including delicious barbecue cooking. As the name suggests, it’s also the home of the Vanuatu Cruising Club so lots of yachties hang out there. The setting right on the bay is spectacular. Port Vila has its own pub, called the Office Pub. The booths give it a cosy atmosphere for chatting or watching television.
If you are tempted by casinos, you can find a few choices in Port Vila, including the Palms Casino, Club 21 and the Grand Casino. And for those who want to just spend time as a couple in the evening, the sunsets are unforgettable.
