Everyone was SO nice and friendly and all staff really went out of their was to make everything perfect for me. They even arranged things so I could share meals with my boat mates staying at a different part of resort. Gorgeous view’s including sunrise and sunset. Great snorkeling steps from my room. You’ll love it there!!!

Nice small and simple resort in a quite area of Vava’u. The owners (a guy from Norway with his wife) are very helpful, nothing is impossible. Easy transportation organized by them (island hopping, return transfers for dinner in “downtown” - the best one in my opinion is KRAKEN). The rooms are very clean and well equipped. The breakfast is good (local style). The beach is not really good, but the sun chairs next to the pool are a good option for enjoying the beauty of the bay. Snorkeling ok, but without spectacular corals or fish. Anyway you will not stay in the resort during the day. I will recommend to go for whale watching (from July till September) so you can see the best of Tonga relaxing in the afternoon in Mystic Sands!

Mystic sands is such a fab place to stay. The rooms are are really nice size with comfortable beds and hot water! Kjall (the owner) is really friendly and helpful and good for a chat. Peta cooks great breakfasts and organises your day for you with taxis, tours and meals (if requested in the morning). This place is right on the beach and is fab for relaxing!

I was in Vava’u for a work trip and then had the weekend to rest and recharge. Mystic Sands was perfect for it. It was quiet, peaceful, and beautiful. It was just what I needed to finish writing a report, then relax. I asked for a snorkeling boat trip, but their contact was busy, which was fine because I ended up spending several hours snorkeling myself in the calm waters right in front of the hotel. I also went out in a kayak several times, one day paddling over an hour to Nieafu. Honestly, the best part was sitting in a chair or hammock staring out into the bay, enjoying the peaceful views. Other than kayaking and walking around the nearby neighborhood, for three days I didn’t leave. I had all my meals there, and they were all good (spicy spaghetti was my favorite). The service was great, everyone, including the owners, were friendly and attentive. I highly recommend and am honored to be the 300th positive review of Mystic Sands.

Such a beautiful and wonderful stay at Mystic Sands! I had such a great time during my stay. The rooms are well equipped with everything you need. Watching the sunrise and sunset each day was a special treat with an amazing view. The owners and staff are some of the nicest people you will ever meet!! I will definitely choose to stay at Mystic Sands when I visit Tonga again.

We had a great time in Vava'u. The Mystic Sands is the best place to stay on the island. It has a beautiful location, great staff and clean and comfortable rooms. The homemade breakfast on the beach is a great way to start the day. We even had a whale swim by one morning while we were eating! We hope to return next year for more whale swimming.

My experience at Mystic sands went FAR above and beyond what I was expecting. I was expecting a regular hotel experience, but it turned out to be far more. Mossy and her husband Maka are the caretakers for the hotel and they took care of us like family from the start. Maka is the driver for guests (including airport pickup/dropoff) and Mossy takes care of breakfast, activity/excursion bookings and pretty much everything else. The hotel has (I think) 5 regular rooms, plus a standalone large house with two king bedrooms. We booked a regular room but Mossy moved us into the standalone house since we were the only guests there. Throughout our stay, my friend and I interacted with Mossy/Maka many times. Mossy is like a mother and has an outpouring of love and kindness. TIP - If you are there on a Sunday - go to church with Mossy and Maka. The language is Tongan but the experience was spiritual and heartfelt... and the singing is fantastic. TIP - Remember Tonga is more about cultural experiences... There are not a lot of restaurants/bars/etc., so grab your own food at the market/store. Definitely make sure to have food/drinks purchased before Sunday, as stores are closed all day Sundays.
