Escape to Serenity at Ratua Private Island Resort

Getting There

• Car

  If you're traveling by car, start from Luganville, the main town in Espiritu Santo. Head north on the Main Road (also known as the East Coast Road). After approximately 20 minutes, look for signs that indicate the direction to Ratua Island or the Ratua Private Island Resort. You'll need to park at the designated area on the mainland as there are no cars on the island itself. From the mainland, you will take a boat transfer to Ratua Private Island Resort. This boat transfer may incur an additional cost, so check with the resort for details on pricing and schedule.

• Public Transportation

  To reach Ratua Private Island Resort using public transportation, take a bus or taxi from Luganville to the nearest point on the coast where boat transfers are available. Buses frequently run along the Main Road, and you can ask the driver to drop you off near the boat launch for Ratua Island. Once you arrive at the boat launch, you will need to arrange for a boat transfer to Ratua Private Island Resort. Again, check with the resort for the boat schedule and any associated costs.

• Private Transfer

  For a more convenient option, consider booking a private transfer from your accommodation in Luganville directly to the boat launch for Ratua Private Island. This service can be arranged through your hotel or resort. The driver will take you to the boat launch, where you will then take a boat to the island. This option may be more expensive, but it offers a hassle-free way to reach Ratua Private Island Resort.
