Delicious Cuisine

The food at the restaurant was truly impressive! There's a wide selection on the menu, and the dishes are beautifully presented. I particularly enjoyed the 'Poulet fish' which was a good dish with a unique blend of flavors. Every meal was a culinary delight, enriched by the stunning views over the lagoon.

Scenic Bungalows

Our bungalow was spacious and well-decorated, with beautiful wooden finishes. The bi-fold doors opened right to the balcony, offering amazing views of the lagoon. Each morning, I woke up to the sound of soft waves and opened the doors to enjoy the refreshing breeze—it was absolutely magical!

We had an amazing time at Sunset Bungalows! The peaceful atmosphere and beautiful views from our room made it a perfect getaway. The staff were always cheerful and eager to assist, which made our stay even better. However, we encountered some issues with our Scoopon deal that put a bit of a damper on our dining experience, and the restaurant options could use a bit of variety. Overall, a relaxing place that was great for unwinding.

Our experience at Sunset Bungalows Resort was fantastic! The stunning views and relaxing atmosphere made it the perfect first stop on our Vanuatu holiday.
