Lissenung Island Resort

Set on a tiny private island just a short boat ride from Kavieng, Lissenung Island Resort is a peaceful, barefoot escape where life slows to the rhythm of the tides. Surrounded by coral reefs and swaying palms, this intimate eco-resort offers the perfect setting for travellers seeking seclusion, natural beauty and exceptional marine experiences.

With just a handful of hand-built, traditional-style bungalows scattered across the island, the resort offers a personal and unplugged stay — there’s no TV, no Wi-Fi in the rooms, and no crowds, just the sound of waves and birdsong. Meals are freshly prepared and shared communally, adding to the laid-back and friendly atmosphere.

World-class diving and snorkelling sites lie just offshore, with colourful reefs, WWII wrecks and an abundance of marine life — including frequent sightings of reef sharks, turtles and even pygmy seahorses. Whether you're diving, beachcombing, or simply swinging in a hammock beneath the trees, Lissenung invites you to truly switch off and reconnect with nature.
