Cheap hotels in Isaka

Couldn’t have asked for a better stay in Tanna. Susie and Morris + family were great hosts super friendly and always arranging activities for us to do. The volcano view is amazing especially at sunrise. The place was kept clean and organised, but manage your expectations as it is a no-thrills accommodation (wood hut, bed with mosquito net, cold shower etc). Susie’s meals were filling (1000vt lunch and 1200vt dinner). Communication beforehand was also good despite the remote location. Though I personally had internet signal the whole time when there. Come prepared with power banks charged (the solar power was unreliable on cloudy/rainy days). Or take advantage to disconnect! Be aware the costs add up once you’re there so plan your cash well before arriving! - Volcano entrance + return transfer 11750vt. - Traditional village (really worth it!) - 2000vt. - Local (small) waterfall and volcanic ash exfoliation - 1000vt. - John Frum Village (Friday nights, really recommend!) - 2000vt return. Airport transfer 1 way is 2500vt pp (or 5000vt if you’re the only one). It takes almost 2h on the back of a jeep and is half road, half super off-road 4x4 dirt track adventure! It’s fun but bring a plastic poncho for if it rains! They’ll stop briefly at a mini market for supplies (get bottles water for your whole stay!). Overall, we had a lovely stay and would love to return one day, with some forward planning and managing expectations for remote places it’s a great option to explore Tanna’s most unique attractions and cultures.

Charlie is a very good host , knows everyone on the island and can arrange , tours , flights to accomodate any of your needs . He and his family were so hospitable , it was the highlight of my stay on Tanna to stay with them , they have a beautiful beach just 10min walk which the village children love to play in , the water is crystal clear . I love the hut it’s a tradition style and the food was beautiful , organic and fresh which his wife makes over traditional wood fire . I highly recommend staying with Charlie and using his tours . Not to forget Tom his driver who knows his stuff when it comes to four wheel driving through the volcanic ash plains and rivers to get to the top of the volcano . ( Charlie is a math teacher at the village school , supplies are limited on the island so recommend brining some stationary , pens , crayons , books ect )

Phillip and Suzanne are wonderful hosts. They made sure we had everything we need for a comfortable stay. Since we are vegetarians and had informed them about it beforehand, Suzanne took the effort to prepare us really tasty and healthy food using local veggies. Phillip accompanied us to a custom dance show at Imayo village and shared stories of the island and the people in the villages. The proximity to Mt Yasur and the experience of staying in a tree house with the view of the mountain was exceptional!! Highly recommend staying with this lovely family!!

Daniel and his wife Chella were incredibly welcoming and lovely, and facilitated all the trips I wanted to do. They had arranged airport transfer and sorted trips to the volcano, giant banyan, Yakel village. The food was amazing and the bungalow was incredibly comfortable with the most beautiful views of the volcano. Loved it so much wish I could’ve stayed longer
