‘Utu’one Bed & Breakfast

Tongatapu


Down near the ferry piers and the fish market, 'Utu'one is a bastion of cleanliness surrounded by things otherwise. It's a two-storey white hacienda, all rooms with en-suites or shared bathrooms across the hall. Free wi-fi and generous egg breakfasts, with a half-hour stroll into town to walk it off afterwards. Bit noisy on Saturday nights.
