Beautiful resort, extremely friendly and helpful.

Staff where exceptionally genuine, and went out of their way to help you with any enquiries. We were offered VIP tickets to a local rugby league match. The dive shop attached to the resort was very knowledgeable of local history and culture as well as dive locations.

We stayed at Rapopo for 3 nights and it was probably the best time my partner and I have had staying in a any resort. The staff always went above and beyond to cater to our requests and the lobster, caught fresh daily, was so delicious! In my opinion Rapopo would be THE place to stay if visiting that part of PNG.

Best spot in Rabaul/Kokopo area

This is a lovely spot looking across the bay to the volcano . The location is close enough to Kokopo for easy access but not right in the hustle and bustle. For those early flights out of East New Britain, the free airport shuttle is ideal. I stayed in one of the lower priced rooms which was comfortable but is on the list for refurbishment . Staff are very helpful . Great restaurant too!
