Just across the causeway a short drive south of Neiafu, this bright white villa is run by an Australian couple (who also runs the vanilla bean processing plant across the road – ask for a tour!). There are nine renovated ensuite rooms, upstairs and down, plus an airy terrace restaurant (mains T$8 to T$22 – terrific pancakes). 'Beer o'clock is any time'.
