Unforgettable Things To Do

Whether you stay for a week or a year, we doubt you will run out of things to do. Set your own pace, do a little or a lot...

At Aoredise
  • You don't have to leave Aoredise to enjoy an island holiday. Step straight onto your private beach for a swim or snorkel, explore the clear water by kayak or stand-up paddleboard, or simply find a shady spot in the garden and slow down.

  • Take a leisurely stroll through the tropical gardens, relax in the Nakamal beside the water, or enjoy the sunset with a drink as the lights of Luganville begin to appear across the channel.

  • Bicycles are available for guests who want to explore Aore Island, while the waterfront deck is the perfect place to enjoy a meal, read a book or simply watch the world go by.

  • And if tropical rain arrives, there's no need to change your plans. Settle into the house with a good book, a board game or a cold drink and enjoy island life from indoors.
