Great Stay
Fantastic stay. very nice beach.....swim, snorkel right from hotel. The good: Location - I would rather stay at Vakaloa (30+ minutes from Nuku'alofa than the other way around. Beachfront - Sloped beach.... and coral, but sandy (crushed coral).... can walk barefoot Kayak - They were free to borrow Snorkeling - Free snorkel gear. You could see some fish right out front....but a great spot about a ten minute walk up the beach. Bicycle - Free bicycle to cruise around the area. Accommodations - Great room with fridge, ample space and a killer view of the ocean, beach and surf break Food - The meals were good Staff - The staff were friendly and very helpful The bad: Dining - Other than the resort, there are not any places nearby to dine. This was not an issue for us as the food was good and only stayed a few days. The in-between: Internet - The coverage was only by front desk and dining room and not in rooms and was not all that great....... but you are in Tonga, on a beach, in a beautiful area....go enjoy the surroundings and this magical location Continental Breakfast - Toast, fruit, cereal, instant coffee, tea. It was fine but not amazing Cost to get there from airport - It was a little over $30 (US) to get there and a little over $15 (US) to get to Nuku'alofa Staying in the Ha'atafu region (Northwest peninsula) of Tongatapu (the main island) was a better decision for us than staying in Nuku'alofa. Especially loved the beach activities and quiet setting.

The staff and service were excellent. Rooms were very nice and tidy. Originally though, we were booked into the family room with a seaview (room 12) which was great but only problem was that when it rained, water leaked into the room and wet the floor because the windowsills have a design flaw that doesnt allow the water to drain out. I assume rm 12 is the only room with this osdue and I hope they fix it soon. It was our misfortune that it just happened to be raining heavily the day we booked in else on a sunny day the room is perfect. Staff were great in quickly shifting us to room 5 with a garden view once we informed them of the leak. This room was nice as well and had no issues except the air conditioning wasnt working. Luvkily tihey had a massive fan in tbe room that we could use to keep cool. Other than that, this resort was perfect. Highlight is the buffet dinner and cultural show on wednesdays and fridays and buffet lunch sunday. Dinner was delicious and the culture dances and fireshow was great...also loved the live band and music selection.....The complimentary Continental breakfast of toast, cereals, fruits and tea, coffee and juice was nice although I wish they would include 1 hot dish like eggs with it. If you wanted anything hot like eggs, bacon, hash browns, sausages etc, then u have to pay for it. 15 paanga was cheapest hot item. Overall was a good stay.

Perfect Getaway
Amazing! My husband and I enjoyed our stay. The accommodation furnishings are elegant and sturdy. Breakfast is filling and it is a great place to getaway and unwind. A note for those who like to swim at night/early morning, take a torch/battery lamp with you as a light source! Malo Vakaloa

Given Room 4, this had no garden view and no ceiling fan, avoid room 4. Moved to rom 8, still no ceiling fan and no tv. Moved to room 11 where there was a fan and a tv, but it only had 2 fuzzy channels and no satellite channels. Thats the negatives out of the way. The positives are that this resort is in a beautiful location, stunning views out to the reef and sea and on two of our mornings we watched Whales swim by whilst eating breakfast. The breakfast uis an excellent buffet of fruit cereals and toast and hot food can be bought seperately. Dinner portions are large and filling but could do with a few more veggie options. We stayed for the Dinner and Show and thoroughly enjoyed it. We had veggie food cooked for us and salads and desert from the buffet. Lotu in the kitchen provides amazing service, he is a star. We also hired a car for a day costing $80 tops. Do this as soon as you can as they do run out of cars! We would love to return to this resort, relaxing, good food, snorkelling and whale watching. Finally we caught the local bus from Muku'Alofa to the Resort, great ride and cost $2. There is a local village 5 mins walk from the Resort with two small shops and awesome fresh bread.

What a hidden piece of paradise! Our family recently stayed at Vakaloa for a family holiday. The staff were so attentive and kind! Each of them knowing our children’s names by the end of our trip. The rooms and eating area are well kept. The setting on the balcony as we ate breakfast was beautiful! The quiet and peaceful sounds of the ocean and watching the whales swim by was more then we could have imagined! Food was a taste of home (USA) which was helpful with picky eaters! The beach area is clean and views are wonderful! The staff were willing to help us with everything! Booking rentals for a car and giving us info on all your and activity around the island! Sione and Marian have a beautiful establishment! We are grateful we found you on Expedia!

You can see whales beyond the reef just amazing to see. Breakfast was standard but fresh fruit every day was a treat! best resort on the island from what we saw also with great island night and great food, highly recommend

This is probably the nicest resort on the island! When we arrived we were wowed with the stunning ocean views and immediately taken care of by staff like Lotu. The staff here really understood good customer service. We had a complimentary continental breakfast which included great coffee, juices, an assortment of cereals and toast. It was also very easy to park our hire car on site.

Me and my mother stayed for 6 nights and I loved it, especially my mother (she’s also really picky but to my surprise she rated this by far the BEST resort/accommodation in tonga) Nothing can compare to Vakaloa, from their amazing and friendly staff to their delicious food not forgetting the breath taking view you get from sunrise to sunset! Every morning we were greeted by all staff, breakfast was never a let down. Their Wednesday and Friday buffet & show was AMAZING! Room service was really good too. One of their staff I think his name was Kasi was really out standing!!! I honestly highly recommend this resort to anyone travelling to Tonga! It is kinda far from town but it’s honestly the most peaceful place in Tonga! Thank you so much Vakaloa, this will not be my last time staying with you!! Here’s to many more lol

Loved that it was on the beach, but it was so far from the airport and so far from town, which could be a problem because the kitchen is often closed for special events. The food was delicious when they were open and they actually took us to a restaurant one evening.

By far the best resort in Tonga!
I travelled with my 4 daughters to Tonga and first stayed at a 4star Hotel in town then moved the West of the island of Tongatapu and spent 2 nights at Vakaloa. We were well looked after from the time of check in to check out. The Staff and owners Marion and John ensured that our stay was pleasant and comfortable. They moved us to the rooms closer to the beach and allowed us to check out late as our flight was departing Tonga at 1145pm. The rooms are very clean and breakfast was great with local organic fruits and fresh bread, cereals and eggs cooked to your preference and their omelette was so yummy. Vakaloa is a family friendly Resort and the best in the Island. We instantly felt in love with the amazing ocean views, kids swam everyday and they have kayaks free to their guests to use. I highly recommend Vakaloa for the beautiful seaview location, cleanliness, friendliness. It is a family friendly resort and the Staff are at the premises after hours for any emergency. We now call Vakaloa home and I had such a great experience that I have now booked to stay there again in July. It is a great place to escape to with scenery to die for. Thank you John, Marion and your lovely Staff for making our stay a memorable and pleasant one.

Tolle Show mit Buffet
Das Vakaloa Beach Resort befindet sich an einem der besseren Strände von Tongatapu. Für 30 TOP kann man mit dem Taxi von Nukualofa dorthin gelangen. Die Besitzerin (halbdeutsch) und ihr aus Tonga stammender Australier sind äussert hilfsbereit und großzügig. Fahrräder werden zur Verfügung gestellt. Mittwochs und Freitags findet eine große Show mit Buffet statt. Das sollte man sich nicht entgehen lassen.

DOMMAGE. ...
Arrivés un jeudi soir sans savoir qu'une fête familiale avait lieu le week-end. Travaux réalisés dans des bungalows en face du notre jusqu'à minuit . Le vendredi soir notre dîner prévu à 20h décalé à la dernière minute à 21h à cause de cette fête. Et bruits jusqu'à 1h du matin. Samedi soir bruits jusqu'à 5h du matin. Le dimanche soir bruits jusqu'à 5h du matin. Au reveil des bouteilles d'alcool vides devant les bungalows !!!! Difficile de passer au moins une bonne nuit dans ces conditions. Bungalow jamais nettoyé pendant les 5 jours. Seules les serviettes étaient remplacées tous les jours. Le chauffeur qui nous a déposé à la capitale, nous a récupérés avec 30mn de retard , un retour avec une musique trop forte et une conduite plus que dangereuse. Lorsque nous avons quitté l'hôtel à 12h , le patron de celui n'a cessé de téléphoner au chauffeur de taxi pour nous demander les clés du bungalow que nous lui avions remises à 10h . Ce chauffeur devenait de plus en plus agressif envers nous. Cela a duré 45mn jusqu'à ce que le patron de l'hôtel retrouve les clés qu'il avait lui même égarées . Le côté positif : grand bungalow Acceuil agréable, très bonne cuisine , bravo au cuisinier ... et à la serveuse pour son sourire et sa gaité. Belle petite plage ( nettoyée tous les jours devant l'hôtel ) Dommage que l'hôtel est pris notre reservation sans nous prévenir.

Enjoyed our 1 night at Vakaloa. It's a bit of a trek from the airport but worth it if you're staying more than a few nights. All the staff was friendly and helpful. Food at the restaurant was good and the free breakfast in the morning was a nice touch. The beach is long and empty but for swimming bring some water shoes as the bottom is small coral and tide pools. They have a buffet and show every Wednesday and Friday night that looks pretty fun.

There was a lot of construction noise until it was dark as they were building new rooms. Whilst it was right on the beach there was nothing to sit on and no equipment to use although I believe they have just purchased kayaks, paddleboards etc that are arriving soon. We ordered a room with twin beds, when we arrived there was only 1 bed. They bought over a small single mattress that was marked and then a base covered in a fitted sheet. You could see through the sheet that the base was all ripped underneath. This was put on the floor without any legs. There was no telephone in the room or any information and there wasn't anyone onsite at night so I wouldn't like to have any sort of medical emergency. The bathroom door didn't close and it smelt really bad like sewage was sitting in the pipes or something. No hairdryer or iron, no pictures on the wall, mismatched curtain rods. All VERY basic. The breakfast wasn't served until 8 and it wasn't ready at that time. For your toast there was only 1 jam and the first morning it was just in a jar on the table that everyone used, later on it had been put in a bowl but that was the only choice of spread. We booked for the buffet and cultural night and the hotel guests were put out the back on the balcony. The dining room was all locals and they did prize giving and birthday greetings. It felt like being at someone's 21st that you didn't know. We couldn't see the stage but were told we could stand at the back. There were 400 people there.

Tolles, ruhig gelegenes Hotel
Angenehme Anlage direkt am Strand. Gute Küche, hat alles sehr gut geschmeckt !!! Zimmer sehr sauber und gut ausgestattet. Leider waren noch nicht alle Reparaturen nach dem Hurrikan im März abgeschlossen. Wen wundert es, scheinen sehr große Schäden gewesen zu sein... Sehr gut für Ruhe-Suchende, da es von der Stadt etwas abgelegen ist. Trotzdem gute Erreichbarkeit zur und von der Stadt mit dem öffentlichen Bus. Ich würde nochmal hin gehen :-)

Will never stay anywhere else - love Vakaloa!
What an awesome resort to stay with family. We stayed at Vakaloa for a family wedding and The owner John and his wife were the best hosts we could ever wish for. Breakfast was a morning highlight sitting and facing the beautiful clear ocean. The buffet nights are not to be missed - make sure you book so you don’t miss out. The rooms were fantastic, spacious, clean and we had nice hot water showers. Nothing it too much for the staff at Vakaloa so accommodating and caring. From airport pick up to drop off. Thank you Vakaloa for the best family trip ever. We will be back soon.

Great location for watching whales and sunsets
Suffered badly in the cyclone six months ago and repair work still in progress so can't be too critical. All staff friendly and helpful, and some appear in the twice-weekly cabaret/dinner evenings which are mainly attended by locals. Not much else to do in the area and much of the beach at low tide is coral rock so take water-shoes.
