Luk'Alofa beach resort, mainland Tonga

Country forums / Pacific Islands & Papua New Guinea / Tonga

If you are spending time in Tonga please try and visit this resort as we were there last week and had just the best time. The resort has just been built and they are in the process of adding an accommodation block so at the moment it is just an entertainment venue. The cultural show was very good and covered various dances from around polynesia. There is a fabulous buffet dinner after with local dishes which included a huge roast pig! The food was delicious. Afterwards the locals, who were the friendliest we have ever encountered, joined our table and sang songs to us and told us stories until 2am!! Tonga really has the most friendly and welcoming people. Take note rest of the world.........
