The scenery is nothing short of spectacular, and can only be fully appreciated by an actual visit.

Hear the owners present the intriguing details of their dreams to preserve the diversity of species, survival of Polynesians before European contact, transoceanic navigation, and the preservation of history without a written language. Taste the special taro chips and Tongan feast that features traditional island favorites including roast suckling pig, sea food, salads and more, as dancers celebrate the history of Polynesia.
