1. Le Méridien Noumea Resort & Spa
Hotel phone: (687) 26 50 00
Situated at the terminus of a peninsula and blessed with a delightful beach, tropical gardens and stunning harbor panoramas, yet within a quarter-hour drive of the capital city, this locale resembles a Mediterranean resort with its expansive pool encircled by pine and palm trees. While rooms may be somewhat cramped, their stylish design persists. An abundance of complimentary activities are provided for guests of all ages.
2. L’Escapade Îlot Maître
Hotel phone: (687) 26 05 12
The above-water bungalows at this resort, though intimate in size, offer abundant waterfront seating and marble bathrooms alongside scenic views of sea turtles among the coral reefs. Situated on a serene island with protected forests, yet only a 25-minute boat ride from the city, it provides a tranquil ambiance amid nature while maintaining accessibility. However, take note that weekends and local school breaks tend to be busier periods.
3. Château Royal Beach Resort & Spa
Hotel phone: (687) 29 64 00
What is there not to love about this resort? Nestled serenely at the end of its own private peninsula, boasting divine stretches of powdery coastline yet still within a brief 15-minute drive to the city core. Spacious and stylishly appointed guest suites guarantee spectacular ocean vistas. All accommodation features include fully equipped kitchens, spacious balconies, and separate living quarters. The lush lagoon-style pool with swim-up bar never fails to sparkle and enchant visitors.
4. Hôtel Le Lagon
Hotel phone: (687) 26 12 55
Despite not directly overlooking the shoreline, this resort provides the relaxed atmosphere of beachside vacations along with convenient access to shopping, dining and recreation along the coast. Spacious, well-lit guestrooms and suites include private balconies and modern furnishings, some large enough to accommodate families. Additionally, complimentary activities such as kayaking, yoga classes, tennis, and boat excursions enhance the experience.
