Tonga Travel

Ha'apai Tonga

IF your idea of a tropical vacation includes white sand beaches, blue lagoons, sunsets and tranquillity then the Ha'apai Islands in Tonga are an ideal choice. Relax on the beach, swim in the warm clear waters, kayak to an uninhabited island or snorkel amongst the coral. Enjoy fresh seafood and tropical fruits and vegetables.

Here there is no commercialisation and most hotel accommodation is in the form of budget guest houses or beach fales. However, on the northern tip of Foa (an island linked to Lifuka by a road causeway) you will find the Sandy Beach Resort, which offers more upmarket guest accommodation and stylish dining at their restaurant. The resort offers 12 bungalow style fale with king size beds (or singles), ensuite bathroom, private front verandah and your own sandy path to the beach in front of your accommodation.
