This family residence was built in the mid 1980s. The family have kept the place in very good condition, with constant maintenance) and turned it into a 7 bedroom lodge. Families over the years have enjoyed staying with us as we offer that special appeal to couples and family visitors as opposed to some of the properties in Tonga. Guests learned a lot about our Tongan culture when they stay with us, as shown in their many reviews over the years. Nothing is too hard for us to arrange for our guests whether its a whale-watch expedition, fishing trip, cultural tour, off shore island visits or simply provision of delicious cuisines or tropical fruits through breakfasts.
We are very much involved in tourism and hospitality development and training works in Tonga. We help business guests to set up their meetings, investment projects, conduct training sessions and introduce visitors to various aspects of the Tongan culture, how to do business in Tonga, local protocols and business rules and regulations.
The lodge is situated at Tofoa village, this popular area is growing rapidly with more and more government and business workers moving into the area due to its close proximity to various offices around Nukualofa. The Lodge is only few minutes away from the Tongan National Centre, the main Vaiola Hospital and many shops and local markets along the surrounding main streets. Keleti beach and the Tonga Golf course are only 5 minutes away by car. The Lodge is situated on the main street - Vahaakolo road, 25 minutes from the airport and about 8 minutes to downtown Nukualofa. The Royal Palace and two other royal residences are situated on the same street. Two mini markets are located right next door to the lodge that guests find them to be very handy, sells food, drinks and even cold beers.
