Guests will have access to the entire gated property, including two Kayaks and own private beach.

The Neighborhood:
Whispering Palms is located north of Port Vila at Siviri Village which is situated on Undine Bay about 10 minutes from Havannah Harbour. This area is away from the hustle and bustle of Port Vila and it is where some of the best bars and restaurants are and where the world class resort The Havannah is situated due to the beauty of the area.

Positioned locally you have Francesca's Italian, The Wahoo Bar, Orovy Restaurant, Gideons Seafood and The Havannah. As we are a sand beach you can swim directly out the front of the property or walk around and explore the rest of Undine Bay.

Whispering Palms is also relatively close to some of the best tourist attractions and must see islands which all visits can be arranged during your stay.

We also have two local stores, one that will deliver to the villas if you need fresh bread, eggs, butter, jam, in season produce etc.

The position of Whispering Palms is very private with vacant land next door and a local village on the other side who can do local tours for you and supply plenty of smiles. The area is unique as you will experience the true beauty of Efate and enjoy a little barefoot simplicity making this a true Vanuatu experience.

Getting around is easy:

1. Local Bus

Directly out the front of Whispering Palms flag the local bus. Just step outside Whispering Palms and wait for a mini van to come along with a red B on it.

Paradise
Marcello and Tina's property is a piece of paradise. Everything about our stay was wonderful. Marcello sent plenty of valuable information, tips and tricks about navigating Vanuatu (great for us first time visitors), and offered to arrange for transfers. Getting to the house was very simple and we're so glad we bought groceries before heading to Whispering Palms' side of the island (another pro tip: there aren't many ATMs--even fewer that work--outside of Port Vila, so get your cash before leaving PV!). The property is just gorgeous, the house had everything we could have wanted. We especially appreciated the thorough book Marcello and Tina prepared offering contacts, activities, and more advice on how best to enjoy our time there. The caretakers of the property, Silvi and John were just lovely people and so very helpful. Then there's the beach and its water. The reef right out front offered some of the most beautiful snorkeling we've ever done. The quiet is incredible, you're almost all alone out there, in our own piece of tropical paradise. One thing to note is the internet, as noted in the listing is pretty spotty. So just prepare for that in advance, or consider getting a local SIM card. We would love to go back at our earliest opportunity! Thanks Marcello, Tina, Silvi and John!

Lovely place but could do with more comfortable seating
We enjoyed our stay despite the unusually bad weather with high winds blowing straight onto the beach for most of the stay. When we finally got to explore the coral it was amazing. We also saw turtles poking their heads up. The compendium could do with a bit of updating, we were especially confused by the map indicating that the Numbatu supermarket was close to the airport when it was the other side of port Vila! Perhaps because we couldn't swim because of the weather, we were sitting around a lot and it would have been really nice to have a couple of sun loungers to relax in. Francesca's became our second home, a lovely place.
