Where is Tonga? In the South Pacific not too far from Fiji. Where is Foa Island? About a 45 minute plane ride away from the main island of Tongatapu. Where is Sandy Beach Resort? On a peninsula at the tip end of Foa Island surrounded by ocean on three sides and rain forest on the fourth. Remote? Oh, yeah! And... More

We stayed just one night at Sandy beach resort. Our impression was of a well run and comfortable resort with very good infrastructure (for this remote location). The beach and lagon at Sandy Beach are superb. A lot of 'value-adds' are offered (library, kayaks, bicycles, WIFI). The resort hosted the wedding of an Austrian couple on the day we departed... More

Absolute privacy, no tv, no radio, no noise but lapping waves..if eating, sleeping and swimming with self motivation are you..this the true robinson cruseo escape..byo hairdryer though! Byo books, laptops, phone...

We stumbled on Sandy Beach Resort via the Lonely Planet Guide - and we hit the jackpot. The Resort is well known within Tonga ( a Government Minister and his staff were staying during our visit) and perhaps in Germany, but quite difficult to find from elsewhere. The overwhelming feel from the resort was welcoming. I cannot overstate how friendly... More

We enjoyed 6 days of pure relaxation here whilst on our honeymoon. The staff were incredibly friendly and helpful both before our arrival and during our stay. The meals were big and well prepared.

The location is fantastic! Every bungalow is directly on the beach. The beach is great for swimming and beautiful. Good food ... including lobster :-) Jürgen the owner is a pearl for information and good company. It´s a lovely place to see the whales and a true paradise!

We have recently returned from a week at Sandy Beach Resort, and we can truly say that it is the best holiday we have ever had. The setting was absolutely stunning, and we were made to feel like family. On our arrival we were greeted with fresh chilled coconuts which made us feel instantly relaxed and in a tropical hideaway.... More

This is a very remote part of the Pacific, but Juergen has built modern and comfortable accommodation, right on the water. You could not find a more beautiful beach and the bungalows are right on it. There are only 12 bungalows and very little other accomodation on the island, so you will have the beach to yourself most of the... More

My partner and I had a brief but nothing short of perfect stay at this Gem of a Hotel, the individual Bure style rooms with all amenities are brilliant to sleep and catch a sunset and is only 20m form the most pristine white sand coral lined beach and crystal waters. Food is excellent, at breakfast of fresh fruits and... More
