7 Best Spas in Vanuatu

Iririki Island Resort & Spa offers spa enthusiasts a dual spa experience. The main spa facility provides traditional treatments, whilst the hilltop spa location offers panoramic ocean views that make your relaxation session even more spectacular.

From what we've experienced, combining spa treatments with the resort's other wellness amenities creates the perfect rejuvenation package.

The cascading "Sunset Pool" comes with a swim-up bar, perfect for those lazy afternoon cocktails, whilst the "Infinity Pool" provides Instagram-worthy panoramic ocean views.

Two restaurants cater to different moods, Azure Restaurant for formal dining and Sunset Bar & Grill for casual fare. Unlimited complimentary ferry transfers ensure easy access to and from the mainland.

We should mention that Holiday Inn Resort Vanuatu by IHG is currently rebuilding after being impacted by cyclones and earthquakes, which creates a unique opportunity to experience a resort in transition.

Even so, the day spa remains fully operational for relaxation, and there is also a fitness centre available for guests wanting to stay active.

The Namele Day Spa is tucked away in the resort’s Banyan Wing, offering a peaceful tropical hideaway where guests can truly unwind. Open daily from 9 am to 3:30 pm, the spa provides restorative treatments designed to refresh both body and mind.

We're big fans of how they've designed the whole experience around island living. The treatments use locally sourced, natural ingredients.
