Barrier Beach Resort is absolutely magical. It sits on a pristine, teal blue lagoon, with beautiful coral gardens, perfect for snorkeling, kayaking and SUPing. The staff is first class ((Sophia, Rose, Marcel and Tony were amazing) and the food superb. Every table at the restaurant has an outstanding view of the lagoon. Our ocean front room was lovely with a spectacular view of the water. We were lucky to spend 20 days here, and we will be back. The hosts Sabine and Wayne were truly caring, accommodating and vibrant. They are super friendly and very welcoming. BBR is definitely a shining star in Vanuatu.

We loved our stay at Barrier Beach Resort. The Staff are super attentive, always cheerful & informative. The accommodation pacific style, comfortable, clean & spacious. Our room was beach side- terrific views & ocean sounds through louvers & fully mosquito screened. Very generous bathroom with all the facilities you'd expect from a resort. Restaurant was beach side - great bar drinks, happy hour, food scrumptious & good variety - servicing staff so attentive, nothing was to much. Activities readily available & organised by the office.. I would mention a bunch of names of people that really touched our souls & made our stay super special but I don't want to offend anyone because it takes a team to run such a well oiled machine. Gardens were beautifully manicured. We were excited to see they were working on a new space for guest to enjoy gathering, read, play boardgames and lounge. I hope we can come back at a later date to make use of it. :-D Thank you to our hosts Wayne & Sabine for checking in with us on a daily basis to see how our day had been. WE LOVED IT.

A beautiful idyllic quiet resort , well presented ,wonderful staff ,excellent restuarant with bar and menu choices .We stayed in Fare 8 in the excutive beach front suite which was just ideal for us. Rob ,Wayne and staff were very friendly and welcoming .They organised transport options to see the Famous Nanda and RiRi blue pools as well as arranging taxi for my husband to do his Scuba diving down at the Coolidge . Wonderful spa treatments for the ultimate relaxation . Overall we could not fault anything because we had a wonderful tropical getaway. Perfect for our 30th Wedding Anniversary . We thoroughly would recommend staying at the Barrier beach resort.

Gavin,You did not turn up on March 11th when we were expecting you - we met both flights to Santo on that day and you did not make yourself known to our transfer driver. You did not separately arrive at The Resort. I attempted to call you on your specified mobile number on 3 occasions on Sunday 12th Mar but received no response. I do not understand what the problem was as you have not made any comment other than providing a 1 out of 5 score.As you did not stay at The Resort, you mark is irrelevant to the performance of The Resort as you haven't experienced being here. If you can let me know what the problem was - maybe we can address it.Kind regardsRob BettsManagerBarrier Beach Resort

I'm not typically compelled to write reviews but Julie & her team are something else. My wife and I went here on our honeymoon and their team was so amazing holding my hand through a myriad errors (thanks Expedia for those btw..). Communication was second to none with these guys and it's the sort of place you would happily put a rubber stamp of approval on with your name on it to friends and family... in fact, we're starting to plan the next trip now... Go here if you want serenity, beautiful beaches (I dont think the photos really do this place justice, its better when you get there), lovely service, good food, helpful local advice and an all round awesome island resort break. thank you guys.

Amazing Place!
Stayed in a beachfront villa for 5 nights. Perfect location! Step straight out the door onto your own private deck with a beautiful view of the ocean. Restaurant food was excellent quality, staff super friendly and helpful. Would recommend to purchase alcohol and snacks to keep in your fridge as the food is on the pricier side.

Barrier Beach Resort was AMAZING -
We absolutely loved our 6 night stay at Barrier Beach Resort!! Julie, Calvin and all the staff (including Christine, Emmy, Rocky) are all so lovely and accommodating. The resort is large and sits on a private beach, which was absolutely stunning (never seen such turquoise water in real life). Snorkelling was amazing (so many fish! including Nemo clown fishes), standup paddle boards and kayaks were plentiful. They provide ample snorkel gear and beach towels to use, so no need to bring your own. We stayed in Fare 14 with the plunge pool. The room was really spacious, the bed super comfortable, and has everything you need. Wifi was very good in the room and throughout the resort. I booked in for a one hour massage at the on-site day spa and Jessica was amazing! The restaurant has good variety and rotating daily specials which was nice. Food does take a while to come out (everything made to order), but that is pretty standard across every place in Santo. We had an early flight to catch upon check out, and they really looked after us by providing breakfast for us to keep in our room the night before, which was thoughtful. The only minor thing I could have done with was a line to dry our swimwear on our patio. They have a large rack in the bathroom but things dry slower inside than outside. Otherwise no faults at all, Barrier Beach Resort was amazing and we had to most relaxing and fun time there. It was totally worth the money to stay here and be pampered!

This was mine and my partners first holiday together, and our first time in Vanuatu. Initially we were really nervous as this was also our first holiday we organised ourselves. The staff were so accommodating. We arrived past middnight due to delayed flights and Julie ensured we were still going to be picked up by the complimentary shuttle bus- and our driver was extremely friendly and helpful. Upon arrival at some crazy hour of the morning, we were greeted by Julie and Calvin who showed us to our rooms and briefly informed us of where everything was. Of course we slept in the next morning but to our surprise we found the complimentary breakfast still available (best cocktails at resort restaurant, nice food) All of the staff were very friendly and every morning greeted us with a smile and friendly conversation. Catherine was extremely helpful in organising tours for us to and from our resort, booking taxis, and ensuring we knew our way around the resort and what was outside of the resort for us to explore- there were free bicycles to use to ride to places near by like the Riri bluehole and the Oceanic restaurant. Julie and Calvin offered a room upgrade as the air conditioning wasn't working in the first Villa. The upgrade was amazing with everything that was offered from the other Villa but larger space and open view of the water- it was so perfect my partner proposed on the beach at the resort! :) We loved our stay and the people of Vanuatu. Highly recommended. Will be back

It was mine and my partners first holiday together and first holiday without help to organise, we were a blindly nervous however the staff at Barrier Beach resort were so accommodating! Our flights were delayed, having us arrive way past midnight. Julie ensured we still had transport from the airport to the resort and as we arrived into the early hours of that morning, Julie and Calvin were there to greet us and take us to our rooms. Of course we slept in the next morning but to our surprise, the complimentary breakfast was still available. We met such wonderful staff who were very welcoming

Relaxing beachfront boutique resort
We stayed for 8 nights and wished we did not have to leave! Calvin and Julie make great effort to get to know their guests and check in every day to ensure everything is as you had hoped for. Staff are super friendly, remember your name and your previous orders. Food was delicious, home cooked fresh bread and muffins, fresh tropical fruit plate and juices in the morning while you look out from the restaurant to the azure blue waters of Vanuatu. Excellent house reef for snorkeling. They arrange trips for you without any hassle. We stayed in Vila five which is 1 step away from the water at high tide. If you like the sound of waves and a breeze then Vila 5 is your place to go, if you are a light sleeper and prefer silence then choose a garden Vila. We could not have wished for a better holiday ! Highly recommended for couples

We stayed at Barrier Beach for 8 nights and were impressed right from the start. The temporary manager was waiting for us at the entrance, we were given a nice welcome drink and she explained everything about the resort and how our stay worked in detail. Staff is really friendly and help you out with any questions, arranging taxis and tours. Absolutely great. The rooms are very spacious and clean and tidy. We had a Beach Villa so ours was right on the beach, couldn't have asked for more. Food in the restaurant was of very good quality as well. All in all, we had a great stay at Barrier Beach.

Slice of paradise
We had such an awesome week here, it’s a little slice of paradise. Warmly recommend it to anyone looking for a relaxing stay with some snorkeling on the doorstep and world class diving a short drive away. Renting a car is a good idea if you wanna have some freedom to look around on the east coast. Recommended for singles or couples, no kids allowed I think.

This hotel is beautiful - friendly local staff, amazing location, beautiful facilities, great food, fantastic accommodation, very attentive management, could not fault this property and did not want to leave.

Our extremely relaxing 3 nights here were definitely the highlight of our weeklong holiday in Vanuatu. We had a villa on the beach and the view from the deck was stunning. The staff were friendly and efficient. Anne, who was standing in for the regular managers, was friendly, approachable, very helpful but unobtrusive. The location and very peaceful and quiet. Right at our front door was good snorkelling and a beautiful beach and reef to explore - we were usually the only people on the beach or in the water.

This place is picture perfect. Only 3hrs direct flight from Brisbane where you have your own paradise. Beach is absolutely perfectly blue with your own coral reefs. Sand is soft & even better no seaweed or shells to contend with. Adults only & its great when you have so many other lovely couples staying in the other 5 Fares ( units) that you can have dinners with or spend the day with. The Barrier Beach has two wonderful caretakers Calvin & Julie who can accommodate to all your needs.  Our Fare had a plunge pool & was position amongst the gardens which was perfect.

Escape from Wellington winter to paradise
We travelled for the first time to Vanuatu from a typical Wellington winter, with hopes of warm weather and a nice beach. We certainly found that and more! Spectacular location and a wonderful pair of hosts, Kelvin and Julie, could not have been more relaxed, attentive and lovely. Food was very good, prepared by a team of ni-Vanuatu women with breakfast, lunch and dinner at hand. Be sure to borrow the bikes and head north on the paved road to Oyster Usland for lunch, and don't forget to wave back at every one you see along the way as its custom. Can't wait to head back!

This was without a doubt the best holiday we've had in a long time! Julie and Calvin took care of us from the second we landed on Santo. It sure is a hidden paradise and we will definitely come back one day. The rooms are great and we loved waking up to the sound of the ocean every morning. The girls in the kitchen cooked us amazing dinners every night and it was always such a great way to end each day sitting on the deck overlooking the water. We've already recommended several of our friends to visit the same place since this was such a perfect holiday.

My wife and I have just returned from six days at Barrier Beach Resort and can't recommend it highly enough. Laid back atmosphere and service with a smile! Nothing we experienced would merit a complaint. If you're after a hotel chain type resort then this is not for you - but if you want a quiet, relaxing, private holiday in a beautiful setting to just to relax and chill out, then we strongly urge you to try Barrier Beach. The food was excellent, the staff were friendly and available for any request. We loved the Garden Fare with aircon and plunge pool. Thank you Shane!

Perfect place for some R&R
We recently had a short stay at Barrier Beach House and thoroughly enjoyed it. We booked here as we were looking for a place that was central to some of the attractions we wished to visit including Million Dollar Point and Champagne Beach. When we arrived we were greeted by very friendly staff and a beautiful private little beach front. The owners visited daily and helped us organise some great day trips with the help of a local driver. At the end of each day we were able to relax on the beach, enjoy a meal as well as some delicious cocktails. Our only regret is not staying here longer!
