Vanuatu is an unspoiled South Pacific paradise that should be on every traveler’s bucket list, especially if they want adventure and relaxation all wrapped up in an idyllic getaway. You can’t beat Vanuatu for friendly people, and Vanuatu resorts are laid-back places to take a break and be pampered.

It is a glittering necklace-shaped island paradise with a tropical climate, pristine beaches and delicious food. You can also find an amazing variety of nightlife in the capital of Port Vila, which is handy for most of the resorts in Vanuatu. Choose from restaurants, cafes, casinos, music venues, cinemas and bars, including traditional kava bars where you can try the national drink. Kava was first used in ritual ceremonies, but locals now use it for relaxation as well. Karaoke nights and trivia nights are popular with expats, visitors, and Ni Vanuatu people alike.

Resorts in Vanuatu often offer their own selection of nightlife activities alongside their Melanesian parties, and you can also head to Port Vila to explore all the nightlife options available. Some of Vanuatu’s best known bars include Mamu Bar and Wild Pig Hotel. The Wild Pig Hotel specializes in the exotic, locally brewed Tusker beer, which is a major draw for travellers. Most bars also offer activities like big screen TVs and pool tables to keep you entertained.

The hosts at the resorts in Vanuatu will be able to point you in the right direction for the type of nightlife you are looking for. If you are interested in visiting a nightclub, Rumors is a resort based nightclub and a good place to party the night away. Shakers Café and Nightclub is popular with foreign visitors. It’s a fun party spot with great food and exotic drinks, as well as great music to get you dancing.

Port Vila is home to several beer gardens, and one of the recommended ones is the Anchor Inn with its dining specials including delicious grill cuisine. As the name suggests, it is also home to the Vanuatu Cruising Club, which is why many yacht lovers hang out there. The setting right on the bay is spectacular. Port Vila has its own pub, called the Office Pub. The booths give you a cozy atmosphere to chat or watch TV.

If you’re tempted by casinos, you can find a few options in Port Vila, including Palms Casino, Club 21, and Grand Casino. And for those who just want to spend time as a couple at night, the sunsets are unforgettable.
