Well, what can I say… I was blown away by the total experience that Holiday Inn Vanuatu offered… from the time we checked in, to the gala NYE dinner, to every little request through our 7 day stay.
Front office Manager Mayank Kothari ensured our family felt all at home and always greeted us with a smile; no request was ever frowned upon and I know some of the requests made were pushing it.
Randy was a great host and was seen everywhere in the resort gracing his infectious smile.
Chefs Ram, Aaka and Clinton always made it a point to visit us during meals time permitting of course ensuring all our palates were satisfied.
Couldn’t not mention Matilda from front office and Tom - who helped out during a late night emergency for their excellent hospitality.
Live music most nights was excellent and set the mood for a wonderful evening. The Malenasian and Curry night with the local performers and fire show was outstanding.
Although the rooms were a bit dated and breakfast and lunch options could run out especially with longer stays, I wouldn’t hold it against the joint given the amazing mix of local and expats putting up a great show. Gym can be missed, not worth a visit. Spa is great though.
All in all, one of the best holidays we have had in a while, thanks to the wonderful staff at Holiday Inn Vanuatu.
We will be back soon to relive the wonderful experience we had last week.
