This property is the best in tonga however to come into a room crawling with small cockroaches was a little dissapointing, the bedding was clean and changed whenever requested, yhe pool was excellent, the breakfast offered variety of choice , with excellent staff
Turtle sanctuary, apperently there were no turtles seen but plenty of plastic bags and bottles, the very thing that kills turtles
The blow holes, well worth visiting, quite clean and tidy area,
View of sunrise from our room window, there was no balcony in these rooms but they did have a great view, no comfortable chair to sit in so i would suggest opt for a room with a balcony

Disappointed with hotel. For the high room cost I expected good to very good quality experience. Bathroom not properly cleaned in two days (dead cochroaches under vanity unit), cabinet door for refrigerator access wouldn't close properly. Rooms and hallways are tiled making any noise louder. Appears property maintainanxe not high priority.

Nice, large facility right on the waterfront. Possibly the only place in Nuku'alofa with meeting facilities? Good breakfast buffet, friendly staff. Dining options at the poolside bar are limited but good quality. Center of town is a moderately easy walk on a nice day.

Benefits from being only 2 star hotel. No competition means they are overpriced and staff need to be customer focused. Customer areas including pool area were not cleaned for days.

Many flights come and go in the middle of the night. This hotel deals with that situation very well. Just remember that almost everything (flights, food, service) is closed on Sundays. By the way, a helpful tourist office is nearly next door (and they have some good ideas for Sundays)!

Car parking was terrible-not enough space and horrible driveway. Tour office was great in particular Belinda was great! She helped us book a whale tour and kept us informed. Staff all friendly, good food. Rooms are a bit dated for the price they charge. Gym needs a clean, and sterilise. Pleasant stay and very handy location to central town. Very easy walk.

We used Tania’s laundry services. For 35 paanga, they will do your laundry. Well, our clothes came back shrunk and spotted with detergent. The clothes were wadded up into a ball for delivery. Even after rewashing, some of my shirts were stained. They also charge morw than double for sodas you can get at the market right next door. That being said, they have a huge breakfast buffet every morning that saved our lives. The pool is also very fun.

Tanoa international hotel is very convenient to everything in town. We had a short trip 4 days only and we had a good time, we didn’t spend much time in the hotel, breakfast was ok to start to start off your day only if comes with the room rate, otherwise it’s expensive, food in the pool area are expensive too. The hotel needs to upgrade all their linens, our first night when we went to bed there was a big stain on the mattress cover and also the sheets, we called the staff and showed it to them, they apologised and changed it on the spot. We appreciate it. The next day my daughter in law was telling us they lots of stains in their sheets too. The air conditioner works well and water pressure in the shower was good. The hotel is definitely not a 5 star, to me it’s 2 stars hotel.

Lots of pros staying at Tanoa Nuku’alofa and a handful of cons. Pros: Super convenient location, easy walk to town, restaurants, markets, easy 20 min walk to catch ferry boat to Pangaimotu. Having breakfast (great options) at the hotel was a major plus (especially traveling with 3 children), plus utilized their restaurant for an occasional lunch and dinner. Food was excellent. Room AC worked great. Hot water for showers felt so good (considering hot water is a luxury in Tonga). Wifi worked well for the majority of our stay (4 nights). The service and staff (at restaurant and room turnover service) was excellent! They brought us an extra bed for our family of 5. Appreciated that immensely. In house ATM, and ability to exchange a bit of money at the front desk. Amazing ocean view from our two rooms. Cons: On 2 of our nights, it was really noisy. There was a celebration and live band (which we were made aware of) that played past what we were notified of. The after party were many and loud. I am Tongan and I get that Tongans enjoy life, laugh and have fun (and I love that) but it is frustrating when we’ve had a long day of travel and we cant manage to sleep because of the noise. Tanoa front desk told us that they had done all they could… We also were roomed next to a wedding party that was up at 5:30am one morning getting ready and blasting their music… super inconsiderate. Overall TANOA is a super convenient place to stay but is not a quiet option.

The most well established and largest hotel in Tonga, with a great location on the waterfront just near the heart of Nuku’Alofa - with easy access to restaurants, shops, the central market, the palace and offices. The hotel has a pool and a restaurant, but the menu is very limited and the lobby bar was not open when I was there. My oceanfront room was pretty good, but not that spacious for the high price, there was no comfortable lounge chair and noise drifted up from events downstairs. Staff were friendly and kind - but there need to be more of them to support the high number of guests and functions.

Disappointed and Underdelivered – Not Worth the Price For the price point, Tanoa did not meet the expectations set by its marketing. Upon arrival, there was no assistance with luggage—something you might reasonably expect from a hotel in this category. Check-in was disorganized; I had to ask for my room key, the guys seemed like he wasn’t bothered to explain anything. The room itself left much to be desired. The bed sheets were stained, and several power outlets didn’t work. Amenities were minimal—limited to body wash, shampoo, and conditioner. Towels were never provided proactively; I had to request them daily. On two occasions, I even had to ask for toilet paper. Noise was also a serious issue—one night I was startled awake by a loud argument from a neighboring room due to the paper-thin walls. The in-room TV didn’t work, seemingly relying on internet streaming, yet no basic aerial channels were available. This limited even the simplest in-room entertainment. Breakfast offerings were basic and repetitive—eggs, bacon, tinned spaghetti, fried rice, sausages, bread, and a small fruit selection. I also ordered a coffee from the café that never arrived. There is no room service available, which means guests have no choice but to queue at the restaurant—even just to order a slice of cake. Staff were visibly overwhelmed, trying to meet demand. Pricing was also excessive: $9 for a can of Coke and $23 for a slice of cheesecake. While the experience was disappointing, I believ

My husband and 11 month old daughter checked in only to come in to our room given away. They gave me a credit for food and beverage use only, but did not use f&b as we were only there for one night. If any hotel does this just refund the room rate. Wasted my $350 usd on this hotel, therefor deserved a 1 star.
