Eleanor Barker checks into a waterfront room on an island kingdom.
Getting there: We were picked up by the hotel and they arranged all our transport for the duration of the stay. It's about 20 minutes from the airport, give or take. The view is great, you won't mind a bit.
Check-in experience: Easy as, the Tongan way.
Room: I stayed in an Ocean View Room — offering a queen bed, desk, tiled floors and a gorgeous view. I enjoyed the flow of the room with its little hallway; it proved a well-functioning space complete with quiet, powerful air con. The tropical rain sounds incredible on the roof.
Price: One-bedroom suites from $150. A bargain for a recently refurbished, great-looking 4.5 star hotel.
