Lissenung Island Resort
Lissenung Island Resort
Lissenung (New Ireland Province)
This idyllic island resort is just a 20-minute boat ride from Kavieng in New Ireland Province and is the ideal base for a PNG diving adventure. Situated only two degrees south of the Equator in the South Pacific, the water averages a balmy 28-30 degrees Celsius. Located on a small private island with tall coconut palms and a beautiful white sandy beach. Think of your own Pacific hideaway with all the necessities provided for an enjoyable stay: Comfortable bungalows with airy verandahs, great meals and, of course, fantastic diving!
The main house has a comfortable area to relax, kick off your shoes when you arrive and put them back on when you leave! The restaurant serves delicious meals with fresh crabs, lobster and other seafood, the white sand beach is ideal for swimming and snorkelling, the whole atmosphere is utterly relaxing. There are just 12 rooms in total with four bungalows housing two rooms each are spread out over the island, providing maximum privacy. The bungalows are built in traditional style from local materials, with big, open windows and high ceilings, set above the ground, to allow for maximum airflow. The six standard rooms have private bathrooms, while the two Budget Rooms share a bathroom, which is located between the two rooms. Each room features a ceiling fan, screens, mosquito nets, a large desk with natural light (important for photographers) and cupboard space. After diving, the large verandah invites you to relax in comfortable chairs.

How our Tent Ratings work
These are based on our personal experience of the hotel, camp or lodge and should not be compared against ratings you find elsewhere. We intend to guide you and don’t be put off by a low tent rating as some of our favourites fall into the 2 and 3-tent categories.
It is also important to bear in mind that standards vary from country to country and a 4-tent hotel in South Africa cannot be compared with a 4-tent hotel in another part of the world.
To summarise our grading system, we have considered the following.
High in both quality and luxury of experience, and property must have ‘wowed’ us on many levels.
This is our benchmark for excellent service and experience, location and /or activities.
Good relative value, excellent location and/or experience, and offering an ideal base for exploring the area.
Budget-focused stopover property, sometimes it’s the ideal location on a driving itinerary.
Don’t be put off, these stays are comfortable and a perfect pit stop on a journey where the choices may be limited.
