Overview:
Hideaway Island Resort and Marine Sanctuary is an idyllic tropical island located in beautiful Mele Bay just10 minutes from the airport. It is partially surrounded by a coral reef which descends over 80 meters with stunning hard coral formations and a vast abundance of tropical fish & other marine life. Hideaway Island offers fantastic snorkeling and diving in tranquil waters right off the beach and has many more dive sites within 15 minutes of shore.
Facilities & Services:
DINING
The food served up in the 'On the Beach' bar and restaurant is just one thing that keeps the guests coming back here year after year. Where else can you sit with your toes in the sand over looking beautiful coral reefs and crystal clear tropical waters while enjoying first rate food served up by a chef who's worked around the world, but now calls Vanuatu home. A real local character, Bruce is as likely to share his humour with you as he is his food. Either is a real treat, and if you can get both, you're bound to have a great night.
There is a blackboard menu that changes daily depending on the produce available. But whether you're after a simple burger, a slice of cake or pie, or wonderfully fresh seafood, chances are there'll be something there to tempt your palate. And if you have any special dietary requirements or desires just let the staff know, and they'll do their best to help.
ACTIVITIES
When you're staying at a marine sanctuary, the obvious attraction is the coral and tropical fish life and guests have unlimited use of the complimentary snorkelling equipment so that you can make the most of the wonders at your doorstep.
Wander off the shore to hand feed thousands of 'tame' fish, or join the daily snorkel safari to the fringing reef where you can see more than 130 different varieties of coral in 2-4m of water.
For the sailors, or would be sailors, there are a pair of Maricats for you to try your hand with. Sailing on beautiful Mele Bay following the tropical breezes, these twin hulled sporty little vessels can provide an idyllic way to pass the time.
For those who'd rather rely on muscle power, there are always our ocean kayaks in which you can circumnavigate the island, or our pedalo to keep you amused.
On land, borrow a ball from watersports and have a game of beach volleyball, try your hand at petanque, or settle down to an afternoon or evening of board games available from the office.
To get a taste for life in a modern Ni-Vanuatu village you can go for a walk through nearby Mele one evening. The adventurous are free to stop at a kava bar, where the traditional version of the national drink is available. A relaxant that is now being sold as a sedative, it's an experience that defies description.
Accommodation:
Twin share rooms: Also called twin-dorms, the six twin-share beach lodge units are ideal for the budget conscious couple or single traveller who'd like a little bit more privacy than a standard dormitory offers. Located right on the beach, the lodges are in a prime position for lazing and watching the world go by. They are located in a house-like structure with a wide under cover veranda with tables and chairs out the front and sides, making it ideal for lounging on and taking in the dramatic views. The rooms are furnished with a double or twin beds, a small cupboard and a hand basin. Shower and toilet facilities are close by.
Studio Ocean View Bungalow: The four Studio Ocean View Bungalows are located on the south-eastern side of the island to catch the prevailing breezes and have a private garden with a hammock so you can laze and overlook the waters of beautiful Mele Bay. These Melanesian-style huts are all free-standing structures with coral walls and local art works to decorate them. Each bungalow has its own unique flavour due to the materials available at the time they were built and their position on the island. They all feature clamshell sinks and many also have bathrooms where you can enjoy a shower and the view at the same time, a testament to the privacy afforded by their lush tropical surroundings. In these bungalows the living and bedroom area are in one room. Each contains a double bed, lounge setting, fridge and tea & coffee making facilities.
Hideaway Island Resort BungalowOne Bedroom Ocean View Bungalows: There are five free standing deluxe bungalows and three that share a wall with another building. These bungalows feature a Melanesian feel with coral decorating the outer walls and local artifacts adorning the interior ones. All the deluxe bungalows have spectacular views over the water and are placed to see either the sunrise or the sunset. With interior floor space of approximately 60 square metres, they are more than generously proportioned: the bathroom, living area and separate bedroom all working together to help you make the most of your prime position. Double doors in the bedroom mean that, depending on the degree of privacy you require, you can even lie in bed and take in the views. The escape from the work-a-day world continues outside, as each deluxe bungalow has either a wooden or coral deck with chairs and a double hammock, to really help you get into the swing of things. As an added bonus, deluxe bungalow patrons have free use of the resort's spa. Furnishings inside the bungalow include a fridge and coffee/tea making facilities, comfortable sofa setting and table and chairs in the living area. All the finishings in the deluxe bungalows are made of local hardwoods, and they all have Hideaway's signature giant clam shell sinks in the bathrooms.
