Choose your hotel in Nouméa
Baie des Citrons has a concentration of restaurants and bars, while Anse Vata is a reference point for water activities. Either area can work when you expect to spend much of the day near the hotel. Still check the room position, actual walking routes and facilities included in the rate you select.
For the night before an international flight, account for the journey to La Tontouta and the transfer departure time. During a longer visit, compare local transport and excursions with renting a car. If an island stay comes next, establish the terminal used by that service instead of assuming all flights use the same airport.
