I can only say WOW WOW WOW. The Moso is an amazing resort to stay at. It well and truly exceeded my expectations. We had the most wonderful beachfront villa, situated right beside the resort pool. From the moment we received our welcome cocktail, we were made to feel welcomed and at home. The staff are exceptional, you only have to ask and they are there to help. We celebrated a birthday and anniversary and the staff made our special day extraordinary. We will definitely be back. I highly recommend the around island tour with a swim in a cave, a private beach picnic and a visit to the turtle sanctuary.
The only thing I could say is it is a little pricey but we found it value for money considering the delicious food and beverages.

The location was stunning and very peaceful. The resort had a great atmosphere and the villas were spacious and airy. We really enjoyed relaxing on the deck. The staff were very welcoming - shout out to Luke for his kind and genuine service and to Rodney for great chats about Vanuatu during our boat transfers. The place to go if you just want to relax.
The restaurant, while stunning, was a little disappointing, esp the dinner choices. There were some items missing from the menu throughout our stay and it would have been great to have some local options - for example a delicious fish curry While I understand that supply can be difficult, recommend removing those items to avoid disappointed guests. The service was okay but could be great with a few tweaks. Similarly, some very simple tweaks to the facilities in the villas (which we can share separately) would make them superb. Overall, we really enjoyed our stay.

Lovely staff. Excursions available. Enjoyed quad bike to snorkel beach. We didn’t have to climb a steep hill as our facilities at ground level. Delicious food but we took food for breakfast and lunch as there for 5 days. Worked perfectly.
Coral and rocks would have been a problem if we didn’t have reef shoes. Important to take The property was beautiful

This place is one of the most special places I've ever stayed due to the wonderful staff who work hard everyday to make you feel welcomed. From Nunez on reception to Alice and the boys on the floor to the kitchen staff everybody was just delightful to talk to. The staff make this place the most wonderful stay one could ever imagine. We were even taught some Bislama. A MUST do if you are in Vanuatu.
Our room was up a very steep heel so if this is something that would bother you make sure to request a beach view villa to avoid the hill

The Moso is just an escape from reality, away from all the responsibilities to a tropical island, where the ocean is always warm and beer always cold. The lap pool villa is unreal to wake up in, 7am private pool swim with the view is just another level. Don't forget your snorkel, you'll regret it. Front beach for stand up and kayak and the one at the back of the island proper cast away feeling. Very nice staff, owners always around for little chat. Overall great 6 nights stay for a price of a long weekend in Sydney. With just 3.5 hour flight from Sydney, The Moso ticks all the boxes.
2 hurricanes in one week took a tool on some local food supplies, few items were missing from the menu, what was really a shame, particularly the fish and fruit we were looking forward to, but everything what was available was a great tasty food (local organic meet is a must to try)

LOVED our stay and experience at The Moso. So relaxing and chilled out. 5 nights was a good amount for us. Plenty to do and see around the island. Snorkelling was amazing! Best choc lava cake and gnocchi I’ve ever had! Loved all the staff. Perfect spot for our honeymoon!
Everything (menu, fishing, minibar etc) seemed a little overpriced. Also I asked the staff a few times what meal/option they would recommend but they hadn’t tried them, so I’d recommend the staff try everything on the menu to help with recommendations/experience.

The island was gorgeous and ideal for an off grid getaway. Great snorkelling and a decent walk to the local private beach. Great activities and the bistro was amazing.
Inconsistent service in room and at bistro. Website needs updating, not enough current info (menu, day spa). Super slippery floors when wet in and around villa. Villa lap pool was unusable in July due to no sunlight on water. Leaking plumbing, and in room facilities not well maintained.

We loved the aesthetic! Beautifully set-up with comfy hanging chairs. Location was also VERY beautiful and secluded. Almost all staff were warm and friendly ❤️
Wifi was very patchy, both booked activities started very late (even considering “island time”), food was delicious but portions were quite small considering the price

The Moso is such an intimate boutique setting! Loved the limited number of guests and it being adults-only. The owners are always around, and so very attentive. The staff is fun and friendly. If you expect mainland opulence and silver services, this spot is not for you. It is off grid and eco-friendly and guests who have a similar spirit of casual relaxation with essential mod-cons catered to, it’s perfect. Internet is sparse to non-existent, and 3G and 4G is sometimes spotty, so have a roaming plan for mobile data if your email is essential to life away, and be willing hunt the best hotspots. There aren’t words for the private beach and bay on the west side of the island. it is worth the trip just to spend time there. We are returning in 6 weeks and again next year.

Location is Wonderful Paradise. Stayed in Hilltop Villa and Beach front Villa, both had pools and were excellent. We booked for 5 days we stayed for 9. Is worth going over to the West side of the Island, for snorkelling, total seclusion and caves.
