Lifestyle Thu Nov 30 2017 by Ashleigh Coldicutt

The holiday season is upon us, and we’re already planning our great escape to leave our desks in the dusk, OOO switched on and laptops securely shut.

We’ve got just the thing to up the ante on your summer getaway, by flying you and your significant other/best friend/mate/mum/dad/sibling to the picturesque shores of Vanuatu – on us!

Simply sign up to our weekly e-newsletter and go in the draw to win flights for two to Vanuatu flying Air Vanuatu, and four nights’ accommodation at the luxurious Iririki Island Resort & Spa in a Deluxe Ocean View room (with its own Private Balcony Jacuzzi!).

Your island escape begins the second you set foot on the plane, as the welcoming staff of Air Vanuatu ensure you enjoy every moment of your flight to Vanuatu.

Upon landing, you’ll be whisked away to Vanuatu’s top resort, set amongst the spectacular tropical landscape of Port Vila Harbour and Mele Bay.

Every aspect of the resort has been recently renovated and refurbished with brand new furniture, providing luxury accommodation and high-end comfort during your four-night stay.

IRIRIKI ISLAND RESORT

Your day starts upon hearing the paradise birdsong, before an easy stroll down to Vanuatu’s most romantic restaurant, Azure Restaurant, to enjoy your inclusive buffet breakfast. Whatever your culinary preference, from homemade pastries, eggs made your way, sausages and bacon to fresh fruit and juices, you’ll delight at how the barista-made coffee tastes even better than it does at home.

Fifteen minutes is all you need to explore the perimeter island at a relaxed pace, however the million-dollar views are located at the top of the island’s peak – coincidentally where Iririki Day Spa is located!

Treat yourself with a luxury couple’s massage, before picking out fresh produce at the organic market garden, or relax under the Iririki Gazebo before making your way back down.

With plenty of activities to keep you occupied upon your return to the resort, take a dip on the four-tiered Sunset pool, or play a spot of tennis on the full-sized tennis courts.

After a morning of exploring, you’ll be ready for lunch. Head to the Sunset Pool, Bar & Grill for a bit to eat. Better still, order a lunchtime cocktail from the swim up pool bar.

Vanuatu is known for its incredible snorkelling, so wander down to Snorkelers Cove to explore the best aquatic life the island has to offer. All snorkelling gear is complimentary, and you’ll be suited and booted in the best flippers, mask and snorkel. Plus, the friendly staff will arm you with bread to feed the tropical fish as you explore the coral reefs.

Revel in the painterly sunset at the Infinity Bar & Café, where a new cocktail is served every night during happy hour from 6pm – 7pm.

Reserve a table at Azure Restaurant and enjoy the best South Pacific fare selected from their a la carte menu. If you’re lucky, your stay will land on one of the specialty Polynesian Seafood or Melanesian Feast nights – where you’ll be treated to live entertainment while you dine.

After dinner, take a stroll to the Jewel Casino, near the watersports centre of the island. Use the 2,500VT Jewel Casino Chip that came with your room booking to try your hand at one of the casino games. Here’s hoping lady luck is on your side!
