Looking for a hostel?

Budget travellers know that there is no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a bit more.

    Very good value for money! We stayed 4 nights and were very happy! The bed was super comfortable, large room and a balcony. Beth is the sweetest. She helped us out when we need to store our luggage for a couple of days, while going to Tanna. She even drove us to the airport! Located close to the airport close to the highway. A little from the centrum but you can take local busses, easy and cheap.

    Amazing service from Peter. Quite Simple living, homely and clean. Best place to stay on a budget with private rooms and private cooking areas. You sleep and wake up with the sound of the waves. Lots of buses outside for 150 vatu to go to town. Shops, kava bar and restaurant only a couple minutes walking. Safe and friendly area outside the hustle of town. Love pango

    Lovely hostel by the waterfront with Peter and Helena near Pango village. Pango is one of the most beautiful parts of the island! Walking into town is about 45 minutes, but is easy. Or there's the bus for 150Vatu and around 10 minutes. Great location, great hosts!

    Good location, nice shared kitchen facilities, and free wifi. There's not many cheap options in Vila so this is probably one of the better ones at this price range. Has a more backpacker feel.

    Location of the hostel is excellent and staff is ok. There is some privacy in a dorm because there is a wall between every bunk beds.
