Recommendation to Travellers

For Travellers to Vanuatu: You should obtain travel insurance which includes air transport.

Staying Connected: Grab a local Digicel SIM card at the airport. It is the only network that works near our resort! We offer free Starlink Wi-Fi for casual use, but if you need to work or stream, we recommend buying a heavy data bundle..

Protect the Reef: Please bring and use only reef-safe sunscreen. This is to help us keep Vanuatu's beautiful coral alive and healthy.

Want the quintessential Vanuatu? Stand at the edge of an erupting volcano; snorkel in a massive private marine sanctuary; explore Vanuatu’s largest water cave or visit ancient tribes whilst staying in acclaimed accommodation? Then you are ready for Rockwater on awe-inspiring Tanna Island.

We never advertise and don’t pay for awards. We believe growth is built on word of mouth.

Rockwater has been singled out in every online travel agent, Tripadvisor, Google and Facebook as in the top three best boutique resorts of Vanuatu and premier resort on Tanna since its launch in 2018.

Rockwater Resort is a 100% locally owned and operated business. All revenue is reinvested IN the country.
Stop your money leaking out of the country, book directly with us.

Following the 20 minute off-road 4WD experience to get here, you will know you have made the right decision. The Mediterranean influenced architecture is not only in harmony with its surrounding but offers a whole new level of accommodation to those travelling to Vanuatu's extraordinary Tanna Island.

Rockwater is an uncompromising green-resort surrounded by a sub-tropical forest, fruit tree orchards and protected wildlife.
Rockwater’s approach is relaxed (bring your humour to share!), where humanity is cherished ...our guests call it a holiday with friends.
Rockwater is a private resort with your personal space and relaxation in mind.
Children under 12 are not permitted on the resort grounds for their personal safety (high cliffs over the ocean and caves abound)
Snorkel the safe, private 30,000 M2 protected marine park, only 100 meters from your room.
