Set on 10,373 m² of flat tropical land at Mele Maat, the former Secret Gardens offers an opportunity to revive a recognised destination or create something entirely new.

Quiet since 2020, the property retains mature gardens, established trees and an existing hospitality footprint. Two road frontages, with main access directly off the Efate ring road, provide convenient access approximately six kilometres from Port Vila.

The improvements include a 415 m² treehouse restaurant built around two enormous living trees, with a mezzanine lounge, kitchen, bar, storage and guest amenities. Nine guest bungalows each offer living space, a private terrace and a bathroom. A swimming pool with spa and a separate shop building complete the existing facilities.

Services include Unelco mains electricity, bore water supplied to a storage tank, septic drainage, and Vodafone and Digicel coverage.

The buildings require substantial renovation, including work to roofs, timber and fittings. For a purchaser with vision and a considered renovation budget, the former Secret Gardens could be brought back to life as a boutique retreat, restaurant and accommodation destination, wellness centre, or wedding and events venue, subject to relevant approvals.

Located within easy reach of Hideaway Island, Mele Cascades and Vanuatu Jungle Zipline, the property combines a spacious site, established tropical surroundings and a memorable history.

Expressions of Interest. Inspections strictly by appointment.
