Perfectly situated to go off the grid and enjoy some of the best restaurants and resorts on the island which are located close by at Havannah Harbour - swim, fish, zip line, dive, snorkel, kayak or relax the choice is yours !

Guest Access:
Guests will have access to the entire gated property, including Kayaks and own private beach. Occasionally you may share the property with one other group in the other villa, but this is rare.

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 Lansing, The Moso Resort and The Havannah Resort. 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:
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. The local buses generally run from 7am to 7pm and they are very inexpensive and are a great experience as you travel with the locals!! If you get a local bus somewhere and are returning late in the evening and need a taxi back to Whispering Palms or anywhere else Arthur (see below) can arrange this.

2. Port Vila City Taxi
