Loloata Island Resort

Papua New Guinea

Loloata means many things to many people…

In the Motu language, Loloata has a literal meaning created from the words “loloa” and “ta” which translates to “one hill.”

Many guests from overseas find Loloata Island Resort a tranquil and more natural alternative to the bustling capital city of Port Moresby, New Guinea. For locals, Loloata Island is a welcome getaway — a chance to unwind, commune with nature and enjoy true Melanesian hospitality.

To scuba divers, Loloata Island Resort means great diving, and a chance to observe some of the world’s greatest coral reefs and meet a myriad of marine animals in their natural habitat. Underwater photo enthusiasts find a dazzling array of great fish, corals and invertebrate subjects only minutes away from the dock aboard the resort’s deluxe dive boat.

Food enthusiasts will enjoy the meals here — from the morning breakfast cooked to order to the hearty lunch and dinner buffets — combining the best local produce and Melanesian specialties with a menu designed for the discriminating palate.

Loloata Island Resort has a licensed restaurant which serves either fixed menu or smorgabord meals and a fully stocked bar. Special diets can be catered for by prior arrangement.

Twenty-two beach front units accommodating up to three persons per room – (extra beds can be arranged for families) ensure intimacy and personalized attention. All units have ensuite bathroom and balcony.

What will Loloata mean to you? Words cannot accurately describe the sensation of being in such a magical place. You’ll have to experience it for yourself.

When visiting New Guinea, stay with Loloata Island Resort instead of a hotel in Port Moresby. The resort is locates only minutes away from Moresby’s new international and domestic terminals with the hotel’s air-conditioned vans and well-equipped boats — but you’ll feel as though you’re in another world.
