Where to stay in New Caledonia

Hotels in New Caledonia

Hotels: 

Hotels are mostly small and intimate. Prices range from moderate to expensive. Modern 3- and 5-star hotels have been built or fully renovated in the Anse Vata area and there is also bungalow-style accommodation in more remote parts of the main island and the outer islands.

Camping: 

Major camping sites are in the rural lodging area. Most sites include washrooms, toilets, barbecue facilities and mini-supermarkets. Permission should be sought from landowners before setting up camp.

Other accommodation: 

Homestays: Visitors interested in experiencing the traditional way of life can arrange to stay in Melanesian-style bungalows or huts. Home-cooked meals may be booked in advance. Payment is usually made in cash as credit cards are not accepted.

Youth Hostels: There is a hostel in Nouméa with dormitories and communal facilities. Non-YHA members are also accommodated.

These are regulated by the Chamber of Agriculture.
