beach near Fatumaru Bay Park Tours and Activities

We were a couple in our 50’s. We had a lagoon view villa, the room was clean, a bit dated. Had a safe, decent water pressure in the shower and a bath. The toilet door did not close and had no lock, weird but a non issue for us. Would have been nice to have wine glasses and bottle opener, maybe a plate and a knife so we could enjoy snack on our deck. But we made do. Has a swim up bar and a few pools. They looked nice but too many screaming kids, we felt should not have been allowed in the bar area. Buffet dinner $35 each was pretty good, lots of variety and themed nights. Buffet breakfast was free with the room, also very good. Enjoyed the fire show. There is a gym and kayaks, snorkelling is great. Take water shoes, you don’t want to step on the starfish or sea cucumber or sea snakes. It would have been nice to have a buggy service to the front gate, it’s far to walk in the heat. The staff were a mixture of helpful and rude. Most appeared to not enjoy their job and a simple request was too much trouble. The property is huge and is great for families and golfers. But not if you would prefer a smaller more intimate location. We enjoyed our stay but would not stay again. 7/10

We had an excellent stay at Moso and would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a peaceful place to genuinely switch off and experience a little more of Vanuatu. The real highlight was the staff. Everyone was exceptionally friendly, attentive and welcoming, and they contributed enormously to our stay. The waterfront location is superb. Being able to walk straight into the water and snorkel out the front of the resort was fantastic. There’s also a great 2 km walk through the forest to a secluded beach, with more excellent snorkelling when you arrive. We loved that there are no cars on Moso Island. Walking along the tracks, visiting the local villages and meeting the villagers gave us a much better feel for the island. If you get the chance, walk south and visit one of the village kava bars — well worth doing and a memorable part of the experience. Even the limited Wi-Fi, available around reception and the restaurant, became a positive. It made it much easier to put the phone away and properly relax. Moso is a place to slow down, snorkel, walk, explore, meet people and enjoy having nowhere you need to be. We left feeling genuinely relaxed and very glad we chose it.

The staff and location was excellent especially being next door to big market. Our big objection was with the design of the room. It has a totally open wall between the bedroom and bathroom and that’s not always a pleasant circumstance.
