LOCATION
The Havannah is set on one of the best beaches of Efate, surrounded by the crystal clear waters of Havannah Harbour, and overlooking the islands of Lelepa and Moso. Located on the North West Coast of Efate Island, and just a 30 minute drive from Port Vila, The Havannah is perfect as a secluded retreat yet close enough to the sights Efate has to offer, including Cascade Waterfalls, bush walks, dive sites and Port Vila. Your stay at the Havannah includes complimentary transfers to Port Vila twice daily run by our shuttle bus.
GETTING HERE
Flights operate from Sydney, Brisbane, Auckland, Fiji (Nadi), and New Caledonia (Noumea). A little-known fact is that Vanuatu is so close to our neighbours, so you can be here within a few short hours… it’s only a little over 2 hours from Brisbane, 3 from Sydney or a short 1.5 hour hop from Fiji or Noumea. Please see below for information on airlines and airport transfers.

AIRPORT TRANSFERS
The Havannah is just a 30 minute drive from Port Vila airport. Our driver will be at the airport to meet you.
Return airport transfers are included in your villa rate. These can be booked at the time of Villa reservation. Please advise your arrival and departure flight details. A friendly representative from The Havannah Vanuatu will meet you after you have cleared customs and immigration procedures; offer chilled hand towel, chilled bottle of water and a comfortable, air-conditioned transfer straight to the resort.
Taxis can be found at the airport, and they have a fixed rate of 8,000vt one way (approx AUD $100) from the airport to The Havannah.
You may also organise a hire car for your stay, however we find that most people are happy to hire a car for just 2-3 days during their stay so they can explore the island… and are otherwise quite content to relax at the resort. Hire car prices vary from around 8,000vt a day (AUD $100) up to 17,000vt per day (AUD $210).
Please note that even if you choose to hire a car or take a taxi, we do ask that you send us your flight details so we can liaise with the airport in case of flight disruptions, and we have an idea of your arrival and departure times. Sometimes flights arrive late at night, and if we are not advised of your arrival time in advance, we may not have late night reception staff to greet you and show you to your villa.
