Erakor Island Resort

Port Vila


Reached by a 24-hour ferry, Erakor is a stunning 6.5-hectare island with an air of exclusivity (although day visitors are welcome). There's a fine range of accommodation here, from motel-style rooms to beachfront spa villas and the deluxe four-bedroom Aqua Blue Beach House, plus catamarans, water sports, a day spa and the sublime Aqua restaurant.
