Симпатичный отель в красивом месте на океане
Приятный отель в уединенном природном малонаселенном месте на берегу океана. Относительно комфортные бунгало на побережье. Красивое побережье с песочным пляжем. Недалеко кораллы и рыбы. Организуют неплохой завтрак и ужин. Очень дружелюбные и готовые помочь хозяева. Из минусов. Оочень слабый wi-fi (сайты не открываются или очень медленно), самый дохлый из тех отелей Тонги, где я был. Мобильный интернет тоже почти не работает. Хотя сам отель достаточно дорогой среди отелей Тонги.

Ved Stranda
Sandra Beach hotell har en flott og god standard til å være på Tonga. Rommene var ok og maten var bra til å være Tonga , Manglet mye på aktiviteter fra Hotellet. Tok en taxi til enden av øyene og det var en flott opplevelse. Ypperlig sted for snorkling på begge sidene av øyen. På den ene siden kan det være noe vind, men mye flott fisk. Anbefales . Trenger ikke ta med snorkleutstyr. Personalet er hyggelig og gjør en god jobb. Ønsker å dra tilbake.

The lodge was situated in front of the beach and such a nice view. The room was clean and comfortable. We borrowed bikes and enjoyed cycling to the town of Ha'apai and till the south end of the island where there was another great beach. They have kayaks as well, although we didn't have time to use them. The staffs were kind.

Fabulous resort location.
We had a wonderful holiday at Sandy Beach Resort. The beach and lagoon are outstanding. The coral is beautiful with an abundance of fish and sea life all within easy swimming distance from the resort. This was the best snorkeling experience we have ever had and we have been to many locations around the world. The resort is run by a great team headed by a couple who are passionate about ensuring their guests have the best possible holiday. Sandy Beach has a restaurant which provided a cooked breakfast and dinner. The food was superb - quite a different experience than other places we have stayed in the islands. The beach cafe at Matafonua lodge (just a short stroll away) also offered cooked or continental breakfast and a great choice of lunch options. We have booked next year for the whale season and highly recommend Sandy Beach as a fantastic holiday option.

Excellent snorkelling
Perfect snorkelling the beach is 10 meters from the fale's where you stay. Food available on site is top notch. I would return and a lot of people staying there weren't there for the first time.

Amazing stay in paradise
Juergi and Sabine were great hosts making us feel very welcome. We loved the fales, food, but most of all the beautiful nature. The beaches are fantastic, with very good snorkeling just a minute swim away. One of our group left their passport behind in the safe and they were so helpful in getting it to us in Tongatapu before our international flight. Would highly recommend!

Fun times
Great place, very relaxing and beautiful - my only concern is the old boy running the place doesn't seem to healthy, he coughs a lot, he needs to get himself checked out. The only other falt that I have is the food is heavy european style, I was hoping for a more healthier island style menu. I would totally go back as the place is truly stunning.

Facilities: Average western standard.; Value: Reasonable; Service: Limited.; Cleanliness: Okay overall.; The food is very poor especially considering the cost, eat up the road at Matafonua. Food is cheaper, more choice and much better.

Facilities: Not luxury but suits area; Value: Great deal; Service: Go the extra mile, Outstanding; Cleanliness: Gleaming; Snorkelling off the beach is good at all tides. No kids - peaceful! Almost have the beach to yourself most of the time. Love the hammocks.
