2. Oceansong House
A private holiday villa on the shores of Neiafu’s hold harbour, Neiafu Tahi, Oceansong House is the perfect retreat for couples and groups. There are two houses available; a studio and a two-bedroom house with extra sleeping set-ups available in the lounge. Watch the sunset from your louvred windows and an expansive balcony. Guests are free to use the WiFi, make use of the gardens and use the kayaks to explore your harbour backyard. The accommodation is about a 10-minute walk from Neiafu town centre where you’ll have access to the town tours, shops and restaurants. Otherwise, you can dine in your accommodation, which has its own kitchen and dining furniture.

3. Pineapple Bungalows
Despite the name, Pineapple Bungalows rents out just one “bungalow” ironically the entire upper floor of their family home. Regardless, they offer very affordable group accommodation in the village of Toula, a short drive from Neiafu (luckily, they also operate Coconut Rentals). The top-floor space includes five bedrooms, a bathroom and a kitchenette but no kitchen. Your hosts can arrange breakfast and dinner for you to enjoy meals with a sea view from the verandahs. Other features include WiFi access for a flat fee, hot water and mosquito screens on the windows. Find more affordable accommodation in the 10 Best Budget Accommodations in Vava’u.
