Tuetueni Guesthouse, Tasiriki, Santo
Visitor Ratings
Not
the white folk's enclave in Port Vila, this village is the
original Tasiriki. The guest house belongs to the PWMU (women's
club) and was built around 2005.
Tasiriki
is at the end of the south Santo road and few tourists come
this way. The village is pleasant enough and refreshingly
different to east Santo. There are some waterfalls and other
walks in the area and kava
every night. Tasiriki is also the southern gateway to west
Santo.
Costs
and Booking
At the time of writing, Tuetueni Gueshtouse costs 1500 Vatu
per person, per night and simple food (maybe just raes
wetem tin) can be provided. Exchange
Rates.
Accommodation
The guesthouse is a modern building with four rooms
and some basic cooking facilities. Bedding and mosquito
nets are provided. Solar lighting is a novelty. The village
water supply is OK to drink.
In 2008
the modern toilet and shower should be completed. At present
you can bath at a small waterfall and there's a good enough
sit-down dry toilet for guests to use.
Transport
Tasiriki
has a couple of trucks. Transport is quite regular from
Monday to Friday and not bad on Saturday. Sunday is the
sabbath (keep it holy!). Keep in mind that after sustained
rains the rivers along south Santo can not be crossed. See
our Santo page for more information about transport.
