    I stayed for 5 days and every morning I felt like those staff on the breakfast shift saw us more of a hindrance.

    Location and beach were excellent. Breakfast was also really good with some hot food included. Staff for the most part were really friendly.

    Pleasant stay in simple resort. Watch out for high transport prices, negotiate local rates

    - While the resort is just by the water/ shallow reef, during low tide the whole area in front of the resort becomes dry and therefore not really usable for water activities (however, there is a swimming pool at the resort which could be used for a swim). - Wifi is only available in the restaurant area and is quite weak. - Transport for tourists is almost a scam in Vanuatu - you will be often charged for multiples of the actual local rates. There are drivers waiting just in front of the resort, or the resort can arrange transport for you, but the price charged is 2 to 5 times the actual local rates, e.g.: if you walk up the road and flag one of the taxis driving by you can negotiate 1000-1500 vatu for a trip to the airport, while the resort and the drivers in front will ask you for around 3,600 vatu; transport to the city would normally costs 150 vatu per person, while the driver in front of the resort could ask you easily 1000 vatu.

    Overall the stay was pleasant, the staff is nice. Bungalows are fairly basic, but ok if you do not expect high-end luxury of a 5 stars resort; I really liked the outdoor bathroom/showers. Vanuatu was recently hit by cyclones, businesses are making their best to recover.

    This is not Breakas fault however be careful if you suffer from asthma or respiratory problems as the locals outside the perimeter burn their rubbish every night, and the roosters wake you up from 4am. Not the resorts fault.

    The staff were incredibly friendly, the resort was well maintained with great views and good food.Easy to catch a local bus to the city of Port Vila

    First night and morning we had no hot water. I looked around back of our beach hut to discover no boiler! After reporting this and asking for some compensation we did get 2 free cocktails!

    Friendly staff and great breakfast. A very relaxing holiday. Lunch and evening meals were very nice!

    Noisy roosters and dogs barking in the middle of the night. Didn't have ac but it had fans, sea breezes and mosquito nets, so overall ok.

    Beautiful location and setting, excellent staff, great nightly entertainment, nice breakfasts, lovely cabins, ok interesting outdoor shower.

    Only reason I haven’t given a 10 is at low tide the bay empties out completely.

    lovely comfortable bures (rooms), very attentive staff, lovely pool, great happy hour, adults only. I would definitely choose this resort again.

    The cost of the taxi from Airport to accommodation.

    The hut that we slept in was authentic thatched roof very cute comfortable bed and an open roof shower which we loved.The beach was right there. Good breakfast which was included in price. Can catch a bus/van right outside accommodation.

    AC would make a stay in the warmer months more comfortable.

    We had a really lovely time at Breakas. Perfect distance from Port Villa to feel isolated and enjoy some peace and quiet yet close enough to venture in at very little expense and time. Great central distance from some of the main tourist must do's and 30 mins from the airport. Not having to deal with squealing kids in the pool was a bonus.😃 Staff were friendly and very accommodating. Just remember its island time, so chill. The Itallian chef on site is a Master. Every evening meal we had was divine. Happy hour from 5pm and then on to our beach front dining each evening never disappointed. We loved our little garden view Bure. Very comfortable and suits the environment. A real Island escape. If you need a TV , WiFi in your room and AC this isn't the resort for you. We loved it though. Got to turn off and chill out. Met some great people here as well.

    We were in room 58 (furthest towards the back of the property), it was very noisy during the night from dogs barking, roosters and locals walking down a track right next to the room. Locals burnt rubbish, including plastic not far from the room too. Nothing the resort can do about this, but it wasn’t pleasant. Getting service for food and drinks is very hard at this resort. The staff are very friendly, however, you have to work hard to get their attention to make orders for food and drinks. Even approaching reception, it takes ages for them to acknowledge you standing there. Mistakes were also common with drink/food orders too, and we only ordered 1 drink each at a time - the correct ones were written down, however somehow the wrong ones were given to us. Sometimes the staff would take orders without writing them down, which essentially resulted in the order never being delivered. Overall, I expected a lot better service for the price we paid to stay at the resort.

    The location was beautiful, located right in the beach. The view from the tables around the pool at dinner and breakfast were amazing.

    Port Vila is the epitomy of "laid back". Breakas is about 10k from Port Villa over a terrible road although, it was graded while we were there, and I'm told they intend to seal it soon, which could mean next week, next year or never.

    The beach bungalows have louvered windows (no glass), are well screened and have ceiling fans making them comfortable and well suited to the humid conditions. Staff are delightful, and will go out of their way to help. Small busses ( B- number plate) regularly pass by, just wave one down. They will take you to where ever you want to go in town for around 150 VUT.

    No aircon or wifi in the Fares. Somebody (not the hotel's fault) needs to seal the unsealed section of the road in to town.

    Loved the staff and the food and the beach and the pool. Overall great vibe. Easy to arrange tours and taxis with the concierge. Would stay there again for sure.

    Really needed parasols near the sun loungers as it was too hot to sit in the sun without one. I know they are expecting them soon and hopefully they will get them sooner. Definitely a big must have!

    Visited the resort 6 years ago and really loved our stay. Decided to come back and enjoy it again. Staff are all very friendly and helpful, nothing is too much trouble for them.
