Wellness Lodge

Port Moresby


With a no booze or smoking policy, an onsite spa offering massages, reflexology and soqi bed sessions and a restaurant serving health-promoting dishes and freshly pressed fruit juices, this hotel pitches to a specific clientele (you know who you are!). The cheapest, swing-a-cat standard rooms are tired; K100 extra will get you a much comfier deluxe. Free (but chaotic) airport pickup.
