The property had really nice places to sit and relax. Amazing views. We werent allowed to swim at the lagoon, it would have been a better experience. The staff were so friendly and helpful. Great food quality at their restaurant. We had a continental breakfast not bad to get you through the morning. They had 3 pools, a family one, an adults only and infinity pool. The property was very clean and rooms were cleaned every day. A special thank you to the staff that decorated a special area for our 1 year anniversary, they went above and beyond. We both had a memorable time. We would go back for sure. We enjoyed it thoroughly.

We loved our room that had an excellent view from the balcony overlooking the Lagoon. The bed was comfy, the A/C was clean and quite, the shower was good, and we loved having a fully kitted kitchen in the room with, fridge, gas hob, microwave, kettle, toaster, pots, pans, cutlery, cups & plates. The breakfast was very good too, which included toast, croissants, yoghurts, fruit, cereals, tea, coffee, juice, milk, jam, butter & marmalade, and was brought to the room by the lovely staff at about 8am every morning. The cleaning staff, especially Rachel, were an absolute delight, and kept the room nice, clean and tidy every day.

Quiet, peaceful, but exceptionally good value. Continental breakfast provided was not great, but we had cooking facilities and it was easy to buy some eggs and bacon. And we brought our own coffee.

Port Vila after the earthquake

Nice resort with a nice restaurant and helpful staff. The downtown was closed because of the December 2024 earthquake. This wasn't the resort's fault, but it meant we weren't able to see much in the capital city.

The property far exceeded our expectations. Everything is in perfect condition, comfortable, private, quiet and beautifully landscaped. 3 great pools- one is adults only!! Good location. Quite central despite town being closed from the quake. The internet wasn’t overly reliable so I’d recommend a local sim or roaming data. I think the wifi issues were also quake related. An unusual time to be in Vanuatu however Poppy’s provided a great accommodation and you wouldn’t even know there was a 7.3 just 2 weeks prior.
