“Once in a lifetime experience.” Absolute pristine environment, gorgeous sales and delicious food (thanks Marta) and brilliant stories from Allan. We will come back to watch whales :-))) More

Wonderful location, with the sand and coconut trees, blue blue sea, and food surpassed expectations, considering the location. But to swim so close ( I was told too close, but its hard to snorkel backwards ) to these giant hump back whales was just amazing. JUST DO IT! More

Lynn and Allen have managed to create an exceptional place with atmosphere, good food, good wines an^d this "something special" which cannot and should not be described. Well worth the looooong trip to get there from Europe. More

Blissfully beautiful, million-dollar privacy, service which is genuinely considerate rather than ostentatious and empty. Photos do not do the place justice. Four distinct shades of blue and aqua in the water and your own white sand beach literally 2 metres from the door step. Ma'arta, Lyn and Allen, with the help of Davita and Ma'asi who maintain the grounds conscientiously,... More

Allan, Lynne , Kirtsy and Ma'artha are the best hosts on the island. They are friendly yet very professional. We had the very best holiday ever. The views extraordinary and the food magnificent thanks ladies. Thank you to Allan for the whale swimming.That male song was one we will remember. Looking forward to returning next year. More

We stayed 6 nights in October to celebrate my 50th birthday. In every way it was exceptional and unforgettable. The other reviews tell the story of the resort and the hospitality- so I am going to make some comments about being a tourist in Tonga and why being at Mounu island is so worthwhile. Tonga is a poor but beautiful... More

Thanks Allan, Lyn and Kirsty for a fantastic stay at Mounu. The accommodation and meals were fantastic. We came to go whale swimming to celebrate my sister's 50th. It was the best experience. More

Not sure if Mounu is translated to anything in English but if it is it should translate to Paradise. This island is spectacular. Small, only 4 fales, in rustic traditional tongan style. Really beautiful, large sized, plenty of windows providing views of the ocean, whales swimming close to the reef and the wonderful starry nights. The rooms have no electricity... More

We stayed on this island paradise from Aug 20-27. I have never stayed somewhere, where I literally left my shoes off for the whole week! We had taken the 8 AM flight from Tongatapu and Allan and crew picked us up promptly at the airport. We were out watching whales by 9:30! First, our hosts, Allan, Lyn, and Kirsty were... More
