I wanted to comment on Shahar post, that he is using a hardcoded host address better is to have it a variable to reference the current host ansible is configuring {{ inventory_hostname }}, so his code will be like that:

- name: Wait for server to restart
  local_action:
    module: wait_for
     host={{ inventory_hostname }}
     port=22
     delay=1
     timeout=300
