• Idyllic views of the Bismarck Sea. • Friendly staff with quality food. • A perfect gateway to exploring the

East Sepik.

The hotel is within walking distance of the main area of town, as well as the local beach. Wewak’s services, such as shops, supermarke­ts and petrol stations, are spread out. Some are on the main street, while others are situated along the coast. With many attraction­s – including Cape Wom and Mission Hill – out of town, hiring a car with driver through the hotel is a good option.

Wi-Fi in rooms/public areas: TV: Air conditioni­ng in room: Ceiling fan in room: Room service: Swimming pool: Airport transfers: Gym: Business centre: Hotel arranges tours: Breakfast included in room charge: Once the site of Japan’s biggest airbase on mainland New Guinea, Wewak has a fascinatin­g war history and provides the perfect gateway to explore PNG’s East Sepik Province. It is an 80-minute flight from Port Moresby with Air Niugini. The hotel is a little gem that will make your time in the sunny northern town all the more relaxing. Perched on Wewak Hill – nestled amongst residentia­l housing – private wooden decks with modern furniture overlook the Bismarck Sea and glorious sunsets. Rooms are meticulous­ly clean and contain everything necessary for a comfortabl­e stay, including television, direct-dial telephones, fridges and air conditioni­ng. They’re serviced daily, with a laundry service also available.

In my opinion, the hotel’s restaurant, Vanilla Room, serves up the best food in Wewak. A large selection of culinary options are on offer, with chefs making use of seasonal and local produce. The lobster mornay is one of my favourites. Delicious. The hotel also has a cafe, which opens for breakfast and lunch. I would suggest you make the most of the idyllic views and eat outside on the balcony.
