Description
We are a Norwegian couple living in the beautiful South Pacific islands of Vanuatu, having created a small resort at the beach during the rough years of covid. Now, life is about making our resort known, giving guests a good time, making improvements on buildings and garden, and about scuba diving. We have an in-house PADI Dive Center.
Types of help and learning opportunities
Help with Eco Projects
DIY and building projects
Creating/ Cooking family meals
Hospitality/Tourism

Cultural exchange and learning opportunities
Find out what life on a South Pacific island is about. We live close to the friendly ni-Vanuatu people, to nature, and most of all the ocean with our private beach and house reef. You’ll have plenty of time to explore the island, and on the property itself, time to study reef life, snorkel and scuba dive, if you’re a diver. It is of course possible to do your scuba education here.
Our staff is local and eager to learn from other cultures and to let you into theirs. You will experience family visits, local traditional meals, and kava, of course.
It is a relaxed and quiet area with a mix of locals, expats and a few resorts. The center of Port Vila town is a 15 min drive away.
Help
First and foremost, we need help to do different carpenter /DIY things, like furniture and installations around the garden.
We are also in the start of making a vegetable garden, do you have such green skills?
We have an in-house PADI Dive Center, and would like hands to help out with the daily life as a dive operator. You will learn a lot about diving, if you want to.
Computer/internet: could you give us input and help with different platforms for booking and social media?
If you have a background from hospitality/tourism, we would appreciate a helping hand in most areas in the daily life at a small resort. We need your help in the weekends too, so your days off will mostly be in weekdays.
Drivers license is a must, as we would like you to help out with shopping. We Welcome workawayers from the age of 30 years.
