    We had a day between connecting flights within Tonga. This hotel met our needs for a shot 2 night trip. The hotel was very cute and the restaurant had good food. The staff were friendly and attentive. The hotel is in a walkable location.

    The breakfast was lovely and they were able to accomodate our need for gluten free food. The restaurant meals were the best we had in Tongatapu.
