Loloata Island Resort offers the unique qualities of convenience and natural beauty. The resort island is only 15 minutes from the international airport in Port Moresby, but you’ll feel like you’re a world away on this beautiful Melanesian garden isle.

Loloata and its surrounding reefs and islands are the perfect nature study and are regularly visited by botanists, marine biologists and others with a special interest in our flora, fauna and rarer marine species.

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 our new deluxe dive boat. Everyone enjoys the meals — 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.
