Great hidden gem in the Kingdom

Great little hotel away from all the hustle and bustle of town. Daily buffet breakfast at Little Italy was fulfilling. Boys enjoyed swimming in the pool to cool down after a day of sightseeing. Regular house keeping by our lovely hosts. Rooms have everything you need to accomodate your stay including AC!!! Free wifi was an added bonus. Thank you Tropical Villa for making our stay mesmerising.

Best place to stay in Tonga

My mother was given the opportunity to stay at Little Italy this trip. Her stay was well accommodated by the owners Mele and Angelou and all of the friendly staff. I was worried as she was travelling alone this trip. She has since returned home to Australia boasting about how well she was cared for by the staff. To experience staying in the gorgeous rooms at Little Italy was amazing. Little Italy and The Villa will always be our families go to place when visiting Tonga. I am forever grateful for the kindness and professionalism displayed by all staff towards my mother during her time in Tonga. Thank you Meleseini, Angelou and staff❤️

Best place to stay on Tongatapu

This place was everything we read it would be. The staff were so friendly, the room was great, the pool was awesome, and TONGA!!! Wow! What a gorgeous island. 10/10 will be visiting again and we will most definitely be staying at the Tropical Villa again!

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
The room is very clean and comfortable. Had I known more about the property I would have stayed at their sister property Little Italy which is on the coast with sea view, has a restaurant and bar. The tropical villa has no food or bar service (no breakfast) although they offer a free shuttle to Little Italy which is 15 minutes away. It is not convenient to have to take the shuttle just to have a beer for example so with hindsight I would say you need a rental car to enjoy staying at Tropical Villa

Alloggio non all'altezza.

Troppo distante dal centro nevralgico dell'isola, basso il livello dei servizi, appena sufficente la dotazione della camera (visto che è dotata di cucina), difficoltà di avere una controparte.

This was definitely one of the better places to stay in Tonga, its reasonably priced and Mele and all the others that worked there were friendly and helpful. The gardens and pool was a real bonus on those sunny beautiful days when you just wanted to relax. the pictures really don't do it justice.

Tropical Villa is a hidden little gem:)

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Tropical Villa!!! The staff were very friendly and welcoming. It was great being able to cool down with a swim in the pool after a busy day of exploring. Continental breakfast at Little Italy every morning was breathtaking with the exquisite views of the ocean. We will definitely return!!!
