Where to stay in Kiribati

Hotels

There are few hotels in Kiribati, the major ones being on Tarawa, Christmas Island and Abemama. The small island of Kirimati also has a few hotels.
Accommodation is good although not luxurious, but there are plans to build a luxury 150-room hotel on Christmas Island. A 10% service charge is added to all hotel bills. Further information is available from south-pacific.travel (South Pacific Tourism Organisation) or the honorary consulate (see Contact Addresses).

Bed and breakfast

Inexpensive rest houses can be found on all the other islands - for example, Abemama, Captain Cook, Christmas Island, Otintai, Robert Louis Stevenson and Tarawa. However, cooking facilities are limited and visitors should take what they need with them. Prices for accommodation in rest houses vary considerably.
