デイスプリング ロッジ

Billig overnatning knap 4 km fra centrum af Nuku’alofa. Vi oplevede ingen rengøring af fælles arealer, som bad og toilet ej heller værelse i de 6 overnatninger, som vi havde. Dog fremstod køkkenet rent. Morgenmad bestod af lidt frugt, et kogt æg og hvid toastbrød. Kold vand, kaffe og te tilgængelig hele dagen. Selina og hendes søn på 12 år er meget venlige og imødekommende. Vi oplevede, at sønnen var ansvarlig for stedet, da han stort set var alene hele dagen. Selina var ude. Vi kunne have ønsket, at hun var mere tilstede. Uheldigvis gik strømmen af 2 gange 8 timer, hvilket betød ingen vand i bruser og toilet.

Owner is very friendly and room is clean! Very cosy,and good for solo traveller! Recommend

The place was clean and a good spot for short stay if you are a budget traveler, the staff was excellent and willing to accommodate what you need. Convenient store on both sides and not too far from town overall love the place and thank you for making our stay 🙏 enjoyable.

Huone oli aika riisuttu (sänky, kaappi, pieni yöpöytä ja tuuletin), mutta kohtuullisen kokoinen. Ilmastointia ei ollut ja vessa oli jaettu. Ikkunan hyttysverkossa oli reikiä ja siitä pääsi aina välillä hyttynen huoneeseen. Yöpymiseni olisi mennyt ihan hyvin, jos yöllä olisi ollut hiljaista, mutta ei ollut. Naapuruston kulkukoirat haukkuivat ja kukot kiekuivat melkein koko yön läpi. Lisäksi aamuyöllä 4.30 ulkona soitettiin jotakin kelloa. Pienehkö mutta sinänsä ihan ok aamiainen kuului hintaan. Se oli tarjolla aamulla 8 - 9. Nettiyhteys toimi ihan hyvin ja oli ilmainen. Sijainti oli lähiössä. Käytin taksia ja sovittuja retkiä kulkemisiini. Koska paikassa ei ole vastaanottoa ja olin saapumassa keskellä yötä, kirjoitin jo etukäteen sopiakseni sisäänpääsyn. Tämän palvelun kautta lähettämääni viestiin ei tullut vastausta, mutta suoraan sähköpostiin vastattiin nopeasti ja tarjottiin kyytiä lentokentältä samaan hintaan kuin taksi. Sovimme sen ja varmistin sen vielä saapumispäivänä. Silti lentokentällä ei ollut ketään vastassa. Kun mainitsin asiasta paikan emännälle, en saanut mitään selitystä asialle. Tulin sitten taksilla ja sen kuljettaja tunsi paikkaa sen verran, että hän tiesi mistä portin saa auki ja sai sitten herätettyä emännän pojan koputtelemalla ulko-ovea ja ikkunoita useamman minuutin ajan.

Very mordern, clean and beautiful

The review is for Expedia. The information provided on the website does not match the property. 1. the front desk is not available 24-7, there is no front desk. 2. There is no laundry has identified. Washing clothes is by hand only, or having the owner of the property do a load for a fee. 3. The is not an hotel, it is a lodge. It is a house where someone is renting rooms, there are 6 bedrooms with shared washrooms, one on each floor. 4. Breakfast was included and was very good. 5. The rooms were very clean. The 4.6 rating that I saw is too high. It is more a 2 to 2.5.

Locations and hospitality

The fresh fruit in the morning, the relaxed atmosphere, the incredible host and family really enhanced my overall experience. This is the first time in my life I have visited another country and felt like I was staying with family (in a good way 😉)

Love this stay! The family vibe is amazing here, and the breakfast is large and good. Really friendly staff and so so clean. Many places to chill and lounge, and extremely welcoming atmosphere

First of all there are some misinformations on hotels.com. The property doesn’t have pool and owner preferred currency is not USD. Owner and her sons were very nice, helped us how they could. There are two small shops just next door and if you rent a car there’s a place to park it. It takes around 1hr to walk to the city center and restaurants (there are few within 20-30 min walk but those in town are way better). They have a shuttle available for 60TOP (local taxis take 50). There’s no AC in the room, only fan which was a bit uncomfortable at nights. Breakfast consist of fruits (papaya, pineapple, banana, watermelon) and toasts. Room door can be tricky, we locked it with key inside by mistake and were waiting for 5hrs for someone to help us get in. On the last day we were told we can leave out bags free of charge but when in the afternoon we came back to collect it later we were asked to pay extra 50$ for late check out (??).

Excellent service. The host and Masiu were extremely friendly and very helpful. Highly recommend Dayspring Lodge and will definitely return here in the future. Service matched with beautiful and elegant host

Day Spring Lodge is a great place to get the feel of suburban Tonga some of the culture of its people. There’s a lovely feel of community and you do feel safe here. There’s easy access to the kitchen and staff is super friendly. If you need a lot of quiet to sleep this probably isn’t the place for you as roosters and dogs and cars are frequently in the background. It’s about 3.5 k’s walk to the town which for me was quite doable and interesting and if you want to get a taxi, only pay seven dollars! I was ripped off twice by taxi drivers. There’s a nice seating area outside in the garden surrounded by banana and Papaya trees to relax or have breakfast. There is no pool.

I liked being out of the main town and experiencing ordinary Tongan life, the families the community. Staying at Day Spring Lodge enabled me to do this easily. They were very friendly and took me, as a single traveller, into their space and were super welcoming. I was able to cater for my own meals, rent a car and get all the information I needed to discover the ‘real’ Tonga. I have to add that breakfast was the best, sweet papaya, mouthwatering watermelon and fresh bananas, straight off the tree outside the door. 😋

The host was very nice and welcoming. The breakfast with fresh fruits is good start in the new day. You need a ca. 1 hour walk to the City centre or you need to arrange or find yourself some taxi.

Great owner and staff, very friendly . Rooms dirty and mouldy . Noisy as hell, with traffic outside and roosters, dogs and church bells clanging all night and at 4.30 am Sunday morning. Impossible to sleep here

Thank you very much for hosting my stay. I enjoyed every bit of it, I would definitely recommend it to anyone travelling to Tonga. Staff was very kind, as a first time travelling back to Tonga after 25 years I am very impressed with how everything is. Thank you very much I hope to come back to the kingdom again. Malo aupito.

Great host and a lovely home. Thank you so much

Great host. Isi was awesome. Best in the Kingdom

Very good place but need transport to come to here and to to towne.

Wie soll man ein 5 m2 großes Zimmer beurteilen. Bad auf dem Flur. Standard ist mehrere Klassen besser. Bin für diesen Preis schwer enttäuscht. Diese Pension sollte von allen Anbietern gelöscht werden.
