Reviews

A great oasis in Luganville. Very well-maintained, with a beautiful central area and gorgeous rooms. The owners and staff are all phenomenal and very kind. Feels like a resort but is located in the city, meaning you can walk to anywhere you want to go. Absolutely beautiful views over the water. Food and drink are both excellent.

Daniel Hoops

A beautiful setting and stunning views across the Second Channel await you at Deco Stop. Nothing is too much trouble and Kim, Ben and the staff are so lovely and attentive to your every need. Relax by the pool or walk down into town and experience local food and handicrafts at the various stores and local market. Have stayed there many times and will be back.

Craig Byrne

An absolutely wonderful place to stay in Luganville! We stayed for only one night (due to a flight cancellation) but wish we had stayed for longer! Nice clean rooms, comfy bed, lovely staff and a magnificent view out over the harbour and beyond. A real 'breath of fresh air', up on the hillside and only 500m or so from the noisy and busy town centre.
