Bokissa Private Island Resort

Bokissa Private Island Resort is the perfect balance of tropical island escapism and modern luxury.

The name says it all – set on the private island Bokissa, surrounded by 175 acres of rainforest, Bokissa Private Island Resort is the perfect location for your secluded Vanuatu getaway. Forget about day to day life and really leave everything behind when you stay at Bokissa Resort with no TV’s, radios or phones in the rooms (don’t worry, Wi-Fi is available for those who wish to use it).

Bokissa Island has it all and when you stay at Bokissa Private Island Resort you can take advantage of all of it! Surrounded by idyllic waters, Bokissa Island is the ideal place to discover the underwater world. There’s snorkel gear available for guests, free of charge, from the resort so gear up and float in the warm blue waters alongside colourful coral and a wonderland of marine life including tropical fish, turtles and sometimes even dugongs. Explore the 175 acres of immaculate rainforests and local wildlife in the Bokissa Plant and Wildlife Sanctuary. Discover the famous Malo River on a kayak tour and see stunning water ways, giant turtles and blue holes!

Bokissa Private Island Resort offers a range of bungalows with something to suit every traveller’s needs. Featuring Vanuatu traditions with large dining and entertainment areas, local timber fixtures and natural ventilation, all the bungalows are set right on the beach comfortably shaded by the enormous palms.

The perfect balance of tropical island escapism and modern luxury, Bokissa Private Island Resort is just a 25-minute boat ride to the mainland yet feels like it’s a whole world away! This secluded paradise allows you to explore the wanders of Vanuatu among the 175 acres of dense tropical rainforest and the clean ocean waters surrounding the island as well as relax in serenity in your air-conditioned beachfront bungalow or on the white sand beach enjoying the warm tropical sunshine.
