We have stayed at the grand on several occasions.Imagine our surprise when we walked into our room to find we had nothing to put our clothes in. On previous visits they had storage space ie a dresser with the tv on top ,This time tv on the wall no storage.In the managements wisdom they supply one luggage rack we had two suitcases and had to request another rack.We spent our week living out of a suitcase I can only hope the hotel is awaiting delivery of suitable storage furniture.Some additional irritants a casino filled with noxious cigarette smoke and a problem with water supply. Outlook disappointed has been much better in the past.

Everything inside the property was excellent. Although parts of the the facility are currently under renovation, there was no inconvenience to guests. The staff were very friendly and professional and even helped us with a taxi driver who over charged our group. Sadly the area outside the facility has the same problem with the rest of Port Vila roads....in need of major overhaul & repairs.

The first impression from the outside is dreadful, dirty and run down, we sat in the taxi and our jaws dropped.Go inside and the reception area is rather underwhelming, then the cigarette smoke hits you and the poor condition inside. The smoke smell is everywhere, comes out of the casino and goes up the stairs, we were on the second floor and could smell it as soon as we opened our door, the foyer area stunk, and it flowed into the dining area. The No smoking non vaping signs outside the front door ignored and the hotel does nothing about it, people smoke and vape in the pool area and on the outside bar area. This place would be great if you like the stench of old smoke and don't mind smoke drifting into your personal space, the smell goes through at least the first 2 floors, we never went any higher, the lifts also stunk of what I don't know, but they were rather putrid. We had a panorama room, room size was good and fittings pretty good, the view is amazing. The pool area really has no shade so not an area you can spend much time in, even if you don't mind other people's smoke. The breakfast was ok, nothing special but did the job. The Alacarte menu, is rather hit and miss, did not have a decent meal there, except for fish and chips. Staff were very friendly and helpful cannot fault them; it is also a good position. The grout on the floor in the foyer area and dining area is absolutely filthy, needs a thorough refurb downstairs. All rooms have a view, Avoid first floor !!
