Great little place
Clean, good-sized rooms, decent food, friendly, helpful service. The only slight downsides are that it's a little further out of town than most and that the wifi is a pain.

From the time we arrived at Waterfront Lodge until checkout, we felt very welcomed by the super friendly staff. The property is well appointed and the location is superb! A great starting location for our Tonga adventure. The meals were excellent as well. Thanks to all the team at Waterfront. We will be back.
