When it comes to resort locations, Aquana Beach Resort in Vanuatu can’t get much better. Located right on the beach and surrounded by a large lagoon and a palm-fringed beach making it the perfect place to unwind after a big year of exams. It’s location on the water is one of the many reasons why this is rated the best Schoolies hotel overseas and in Vanuatu.

Schoolies love this resort as it has a pool and is so close to the beach and is surrounded by beautiful lush gardens. The restaurant, bar and pool area is where the evening Schoolies parties kick-off before people head to local bars and nightclubs or kick on at the resort.

On the picturesque Coral Coast of Fiji, Mango Bay Resort is another top rated Schoolies hotel.
