Prima voor gezinnen, mooie ligging
Ik heb een week in Poppy's gelogeerd, het was er prima. Dit resort ligt, zoals de naam al zegt, aan een lagune met een privéstrandje en wat strandbedjes en kajaks. Er zijn 3 zwembaden, maar op het familiebad na, stellen die niet zoveel voor, ze zijn echter wel schoon. Er zijn verschillende accommodatiekeuzes, van ruime gezinsappartementen aan het strand tot aan standaard kamer in een klein gebouw wat meer naar achteren. Ik verbleef in 1 van deze kamers, wat wel betekende dat het een pittige klim omhoog was naar dat gebouwtje. Maar de kamer had alles, ruime keuken met alle faciliteiten, nette badkamer, balkonnetje met zitje met uitzicht op de lagune. Het personeel is erg vriendelijk en behulpzaam, bij aankomst kreeg ik een uitgebreide uitleg over wat er zowel in het resort, als in Port Vila en Efate allemaal mogelijk was. Toertjes waren rechtstreeks te boeken. Poppy's ligt dichtbij Port Vila (20-25 minuten lopen), maar houd er rekening mee dat je, om Port Vila te bereiken, je een redelijk steile heuvel over moet. Dat doe je 1 keer, en daarna niet meer. Ook in het donker is het niet aan te raden lopend naar Port Vila te gaan, niet dat de buurt etc. gevaarlijk is, maar er is weinig verlichting, en gezien de vele busjes en de gaten in de weg kan het soms gevaarlijk zijn. Ik heb altijd een busje genomen, voor 150 Vatu (1,25 Euro) brengt deze je naar Port VIla waar je wil zijn, of naar Poppy's. Er rijden er tientallen per minuut voorbij.

Apart from 1 staff member, the rest were really rude and dismissive. Shower was mouldy, breakfast was usually a little stale, sheets did not feel clean/my skin itched like crazy everytime I was in bed. Restaurant food tasted good but staff were inconsistent in providing table service. Wifi was absolutely shocking, I barely even had service in my room so I couldn't even use mobile data. I was advised the lagoon was contaminated when I arrived so no swimming or any water sports apart from kayaking. The resort itself is beautiful but overall was quite expensive for the poor experience.

Loved staying at Poppy’s. The garden bungalows are perfect and have everything you need. All of the staff are welcoming and helpful and nothing is too much trouble. You can walk to town in about 15 minutes but be aware there’s a very long steep driveway to get to the road. We’d definitely stay there again.

Is a beautiful place to stay. Rained a lot during stay which played havoc with the pools. Staff are lovely. Rooms are spacious. The place as a whole is probably in need of some TLC and more information available on things to do would be handy. But I would return

Overall we had a very comfortable stay. The rooms have everything you need and are well equipped. There are two air conditions in the 2 bedroom apartments which helped to cool down the entire apartment. Rooms were cleaned everyday which was nice. Pillows and bedding were very comfortable. Some issues were the apartments did not have blockout blinds although we were told nobody could see in at night you could see through the window and also it was very bright. There was only one area to put your clothes in one of the rooms. Only two locks on two of the doors. The power cut out a few times when we would start appliances and one of the power points were burnt. But overall I would stay at Poppy’s again. My family really enjoyed their time.

Poppies accommodation
Poppies is a nice relaxing bush setting. The lagoon is not blue and clean. We were advised the lagoon is not safe to swim in, the water is murky light brown. The staff are friendly, like all people from Vanuatu we met. We had no shampoo/conditioner in our room until the 3rd day of our stay after asking for 3 days. The free continental breakfasts are generous and good variety of food delivered to your room with instant coffee.

Very nice little resort on the outskirts of Port Vila. There are walking distance to most things in the town. The staff is very friendly, and you almost fell as part of their family. Sometimes it took a little time to get the food in the restaurant tough.

Poppy's is paradise
Out of the 3 places we stayed we liked this place the best. We were in a studio apartment towards the top. The rooms are a bit old but clean and presentable. Beds and pillows are comfortable. Staff serviced our room daily. Nice bathroom products and amenities available. Air con worked great. Breakfast is decent; fruit, pastries and cereal available. We had dinner here twice. One was the traditional night with a feast which was fun, it included kava tasting, dinner and dessert, traditional band and dancing. The other night we ordered off the menu and our food was nice. Make sure you give some tidbits to the little cats that reside in the garden. The staff at Poppy's are very helpful and friendly. They helped us book tours and called buses for us etc. Someone even came to our room when it was raining to give us an umbrella! We made use of the kayaks and used the pool too; great to have these facilities. The location of Poppy's is good, there are quite a few places to see and eat at within walking distance. Spice restaurant is close by. It is quiet on the lagoon and has a lovely view. Catching buses from here is easy. If you are elderly or not able to walk a lot be warned the driveway in and out of the resort is very steep (as well as to some of the rooms), for those that are able though it is a great workout for the bum. No complaints really. Only annoying thing is wifi is only available at reception but it's not that big of a deal.

The staff were excellent, especially Betty, on reception, who was very helpful. Michel, the bus driver, was very good and easy to get on with. Breakfast was hit and miss and depending on what time you arrived, whether there was sufficient food or crockery! Rooms - we had a studio room upstairs. The shower leaked water and the seal on the fridge was broken. The bed was comfortable. Electricity was a problem and only one appliance could be used at a time. The kettle was useless as it only “boiled” water to lukewarm. Had to use the microwave to make a cuppa. Tv - once again this was also hit and miss as to whether you got any volume on the channels! The fox movies channel lost sound after a couple of days then froze completely. Wifi was available at reception and was slow.

Setting was beautiful and staff exceptionally friendly and helpful. Getting to and from the center of Port Vila was cheap and easy, with local minibuses everywhere. Room was very good with magical views, but in the bathroom, there was some mould around the shower cabinet. Resort organised on-ground transfers to airport but charged several times more more than local taxi or bus services. Wifi was unreliable and most advertised TV channels did not work. Guests need to be aware also that there is 15% tax on room rates, making it more expensive than the advertised prices.

Massively overpriced for such a poor experience
Poppy's was a disappointment from the start. This place is so overpriced it is unreal. For the sake of brevity I'll list the issues: (1) The breakfast offering was very limited - for the price we paid to stay here it was frankly offensive. The muesli ran out on the first morning and wasn't replaced for three days. I bought my own from the local shop; I want something better than cocopops/cornflake. The breakfast set-up is inefficient with items constantly needing replenishing - but not until you go to use it to find the milk/coffee/dry pancakes are empty. I also do not appreciate staff at breakfast interrupting my eating (of what little there was available) to encourage me to buy artwork from the woman's stall opposite. No matter how politely put, this was completely inappropriate. (2) The wifi offering was abysmal - exceptionally slow yet cafes in town managed to offer much better internet for the cost of a coffee. (3) Contacting the hotel prior to arrival was an utter farce. Hotel non-responsive for weeks on email. They do not use the hotels.com portal and phoning is very expensive. Even after all this hassle the transfer was arranged wrongly and I spotted a massive overcharge on checkout. Really not good enough. (4) A member of staff offered to arrange us a taxi to Mele yet failed to tell us this was five times more expensive than us getting a taxi from the top of the street. Felt ripped-off. I would not stay here again and would encourage others to avoid too.

The Poppy gardens are gorgeous and the staff are extraordinary...friendly, helpful and dedicated to helping guests make the most of their stay. We greatly enjoyed our time there. Breakfasts were ample, especially the fresh fruit selection which is much more extensive than the fruits offered at the more upscale Ramada further down the lagoon. After nine days of exploring Port Vila and other sights on Efate, we left with calves of steel from all the stairs and hills around. It’s a good walk into town...worthwhile to get a perspective on how the residents of Seaside live. Sights not to miss in Vila: the national museum and the mind boggling collection of artifacts at Utlalo.

Nice hotel construction being done so a little loud at time but thats to be expected we had a lagoon view room which was nice but neighbours loud at night so we got moved to a lagoon spa room which was lovely but the spa only fills up about 10 inches befor you run out of hot water but that didnt really bother up its down on the lagoon side so a lot of up hill walking to get to the top to catch a local bus

Tropical oasis
Great staff. Lovely tropical feel with pretty views over the lagoon. Breakfast and restaurant food generally OK but quite expensive and could be better and more varied. A resort with character but lacking some of the systems and smartness of the bigger and newer resorts. We enjoyed it but it would not suit people who value smart rooms and facilities over local style.

on the Lagoon
Die Lagune lädt nicht wirklich zum Baden ein, dafür hat es schöne kleine Pools. Der Garten ist wunderbar. Das Frühstück war minimal, ein Ei gab es nur mit Aufpreis und das public Wi-Fi ist so gut wie nicht vorhanden. Einzelne Seiten konnten gar nicht geladen werden. Das Zimmer, bzw. in meinem Fall (Bungalow, Whirlpool, Strandnähe) das Häuschen hat mir gefallen, auch wenn es durch den Baustil (es gibt keine Glas-Fenster, nur Mückennetze mit zuklappbaren Holzstoren) sehr ringhörig ist. Das Abendessen war gut, aber das Preis-/Leistungsverhältnis schlecht.
