White Grass, Tanna, Vanuatu

White Grass Resort and Spa in Tanna has had a full makeover and we love it, on a recent stay it’s plain to see the attention that has gone in to this gorgeous resort on an island that holds so much energy. The restaurant has fantastic views to ensure you get the maximum from your stay, enjoy long dinners and soak up the famous White Grass sunsets.

The resort itself now boasts three- and four- star two bedroom family villas, with designer furnishings, the bures have been newly painted and renovated. The fully equipped resort kitchen has been built to international standards serving up fresh organic produce, line-caught fish and Vanuatu’s
famous organic beef.

White Grass has your days sorted when it comes to having a bit of an adventure with activities including snorkelling and scuba diving, on their own spectacular reef and day trips to the brilliant Blue Cave. Step outside your room to the adjacent blue holes with abundant sea life and untouched coral, swimming with turtles in their natural habitat. The spectacular Louniel waterfall is a must-do and to finish off there is the five-kilometre black sand surf beach where you can catch some waves. There is so much more to Tanna than expected and it absolutely has to be explored. White Grass has you completely covered and can fill your days with great food and adventure.

Some of the ‘on the water activities’ are: Daily guided snorkel tour to the turtle reef; more snorkelling in the blue holes, one and two; a boat tour to the amazing Blue Cave at Lemnap; dive with Volcano Island Divers at 12+ different shore or boat dives; use the complimentary kayaks and explore the untouched rugged coastline; go on a game fishing trip Tanna style; walk the exposed ancient reef at low tide or take the Louniel Surf Beach and Waterfall Safari.

In addition the resort has recently curated in collaboration with its local producers a ‘Tastes of Tanna’ foodie tour. This has been designed to provide guests with a first hand insight into the land and people behind some of the most incredible organic and sustainable food and produce – all of which are featured daily on the resort menu. Guests depart the resort in the morning with head chef Charlie for a day’s shopping with a demonstration dinner later that night.
