I booked a flight for 12:30 and came on purpose. When I arrived, I was told to go away and wait for them to call me, which I did. After more than one hour, at 1pm I called back as I had no news, and the reply was once again to wait. 2hours after, still no news. I drove 2hours just for this (plus 2 others to go back), and I felt like they don’t care about paying customers at all!! Never experienced such a horrible service and I travel frequently all over the World! More

The hotel was full but stayed (sadly) elsewhere. We still booked a flight over the Coeur de Voh through the Hibiscus and arrived in time for coffee beforehand. The hotel is lovely, service attentive and ambiance warm and relaxed. The flight over the barrier reef was sensational.
Dear pips1950,
We are so happy to welcome Vanuatu tourists!
We are sad that you could not stay at our quiet and calm hotel, indeed, sometimes it is full.
Our ULM flights are sensational, we can not describe them better than you did!
Hope to see you again, next time during another trip!

The exterior is not very encouraging - there is construction across the street as well as construction on the exterior of the hotel. Don't let it fool you - inside is an oasis of zen tranquility and a restaurant worthy of Michelin star.
We were really pleasantly surprised by our poolside room which was tasteful and comfortable. The restaurant is spread across a number of rooms and the menu is superb. Don't expect an easy ride - wines are really quite expensive - but the food is outstanding.
Dear Roz57_13
Thank you very much for your post.
We are indeed very focused on all our services: our restaurant belongs to our hotel and a good dinner or breakfast, is a priority for our melanesian chief .
We would love to receive a Michelin star, but we think that they do not come so far away :)
Our wines are unfortunately very taxed in New-Calédonia (almost 50% tax), but we try to suggest some delicious one to our clients.
Hope to see you again in our North Province

Rooms are OK and clean, beds are comfortable, everything you would expect from a hotel . Roadside rooms can be affected from traffic noise, but then the same can be said for poolside rooms if you want an early night. The staff were attentive and friendly, the food was excellent. I would definitely stay there again.
Dear Wilkiadj
Thank you very much for your post, and your positive appreciation.
We are always very happy to welcome australian travellers and wish you good trip back to your beautiful country.

The anonymous exterior belies one of the best places on the Caillou. The very comfortable rooms are mostly around a patio centred on a small but pleasant swimming pool. There is a good bar and an excellent restaurant - like in most NC, local produce prepared along French cuisine standards. Good wines as well. The hotel offers a series of excursions in the Kone area: do not miss the flight in ultralight over the Coeur de Voh and the Trou Bleu. You can actually book an all-inclusive package, but even without it it's good value for money.
Hi Stefano and thank you for your lovely post!
I apologise for my late answer, and I hope that all the North Province seduced you as well as our hotel, restaurant and flights!
Hope you had a very good trip,
Best regards

It includes one night, breakfast and dinner for 2 and a duo flight over the Heart of Voh (Cœur de Voh) and the Blue Hole (Le Trou Bleu). The place is very relaxing and the staff is very friendly. There is a beautiful garden at the back. The luxury package includes a private spa in a quiet corner of the hotel (off the pool side). There are cheaper package with regular room (make sure to book one with direct access to the pool in that case).
The flights in ULM that are available from the hotel are just astonishing. You'll be blown away by the magnificence of the scenery, which include the barrier reef, manta rays spotting, clear blue water, and of course the highlights that are the heart of Voh (cover of Earth from Above from Yann Arthus Bertrand) and the blue hole (this is one of the only 2 blue holes in the world apparently - unverified).
If you happen to drive through Kone during your trip, book yourself a nice treat there with a night, dinner and flight!
Dear Teknivor,
We are very happy to read your post, for many reasons:
First of all, we love to welcome foreign tourists in Koné, you have such an incredible energy to come to this north part of New Caledonia after having crossed the Pacific ocean, and, last but not least, after a long road trip from Noumea city!
Plus, you can appreciate another part of our big island, more isolated but ...more authentic with nature all over the cockpit of our planes...
We are happy too, for your great appreciation of our rooms and dinners.
Do not hesitate to join us during your caledonian trip, if we can help!
Best regards,
Cécile KUBECK
