Summary: The staff are very friendly and helpful. The rooms are large and spacious. There is a 30 minute walk to the other side of the island, to a private beach that has lovely white sand and is great for snorkelling. You can also kayak and snorkel straight in front of the resort.

Summary: We had an excellent stay at Moso and would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a peaceful place to genuinely switch off and experience a little more of Vanuatu. The real highlight was the staff. Everyone was exceptionally friendly, attentive and welcoming, and they contributed enormously to our stay. The waterfront location is superb. Being able to walk straight into the water and snorkel out the front of the resort was fantastic. There’s also a great 2 km walk through the forest to a secluded beach, with more excellent snorkelling when you arrive. We loved that there are no cars on Moso Island. Walking along the tracks, visiting the local villages and meeting the villagers gave us a much better feel for the island. If you get the chance, walk south and visit one of the village kava bars — well worth doing and a memorable part of the experience. Even the limited Wi-Fi, available around reception and the restaurant, became a positive. It made it much easier to put the phone away and properly relax. Moso is a place to slow down, snorkel, walk, explore, meet people and enjoy having nowhere you need to be. We left feeling genuinely relaxed and very glad we chose it.

Summary: For those who's priority is relaxation and refreshing the mind & spirit, this is the place for you. The Moso has 15 villas, so there's typically no more than 30 guests. Many guests stick to their villas since several have their own pools. Yes, you can take trips, the staff will arrange boat transfers to Efate, a 10 minute ride away, or to Major Tom, the sailboat that moors about 15 minutes away. The walk to Embas beach on the other side of the island takes 30-40 minutes, but well worth the incline over the hill and back down. The reef there is even more amazing than the one out front of the resort. I had a massage booked for later that day, so I asked the staff to pick us up on the quad for the trip back, which they did. Friday and Saturday nights from 5:30pm you can walk 10-15 minutes to the nearest side of the village to Jerry's Kava Bar. Chat with the locals, look at the moon, stars and water from the porch. Take a few bucks in cash for the Kava and Tuskers (beer). The locals are some of the most delightful people I've met. Downsides: If you need to be active all the time, this is not the place for you. It's quiet, tranquil, remote, and sometimes they're out of a dish from the menu due to limited supplies. We couldn't get our pool light to work (put that on the bulb replacement list) and the in-room safe needed new AA batteries. Big deal, right? It's fabulous. We loved it.

Summary: Beautiful boutique resort in secluded paradise. Stylish and well considered accommodations, friendly and helpful staff, and great food. We kayaked every day to the shipwrecked yacht and walked to Embas beach for snorkeling, which was remote and secluded. Good snorkeling off the front beach also. Highly recommend and hope to return 😊

Summary: I loved this place! Super chill, beautiful location, friendly staff, clean spaces. You can be as busy or not as you choose. For me it was a 'stop still' holiday and the Moso was perfect. The small number of guests made it relaxed and intimate, and you could be chatty or not - but I met some lovely new friends. Bed was super comfortable (and after two back surgeries I am fussy), villa was spacious, clean, and private, with a spectacular view. We went snorkelling, kayaking, swimming, when we weren't lazing around reading, eating and drinking :) Also staff will organise trips if you want to have more activities. 10 out of 10. Loved it, and would recommend for anyone wanting a real 'getaway'.

Summary: Absolutely gorgeous. My partner and I stayed for a week to just relax and we got to do exactly that. The food was really really good and there is a really nice beach on the other side of the island where you can snorkel on a reef.
