It is situated on Foa Island, Haapai Group, and can be reached from the international airport on Tongatapu in 35 minutes followed by a ten minute car ride.
That in actual point of fact is the theory, but it doesnt always work that way, but the owner meets you at the airport, so if you are even several hours later than expected, dont worry.
Life at Sandy Beach Resort has its own timetable, and things do happen slowly in the South Pacific, but we didnt go there for 21st century facilities.
We wanted an escape from the cocoon that 5* hotels have become, increasingly the same, no matter where in the world you have travelled to. What you will find at the Sandy Beach Resort is no pollution, no blaring radios, TV, or for that matter people!!
Boris and his father will look after you very well indeed, and the food in the restaurant is good if a little repetitive, in that it is mainly seafood based, although it suited us fine. You need to remember that there isnt much agriculture on Tonga, and corned beef appears to be a staple!!
Life here is different, things dont turn up, like aeroplanes, supplies, so just chill!!
The beach, which is almost on the doorstep of your fale, [chalet, bure ] are whatever you want to call it, is quite the most beautiful beach we have ever seen anywhere. It is very private here, indeed you could walk a few yards and never see another soul.
The water is the kind of turquoise colour you can only dream about, and you can snorkel almost off the beach, and see beautiful fish. Neither of us scuba dive, but I gather that was pretty good if you did.
This a real south pacific vacation. You do get one of the best white beaches, in fact one of the worlds best beaches, what you dont get is an international hotel and five star service, but who wants it anyway.

The Presa Di Goa Country House Hotel
Presa Di Goa Country House is a country house which has been completely restored, and then furnished as one might have expected from the Portugese when Goa was a colony. It has a wonderful feel to it, more like a home than a hotel which is a tribute to the owner. This is a real gem, and one that for the sake of future guests shouldnt be publicised too much in case it ruins perfection.
It sits in the village of Nagoa in the countryside surrounded by rice paddies, and is really a place for...
