Green Lodge – Holiday Homes
Sam's House
Good:
• Rooms were spacious with good storage, nice big beds, clean bedding and pillows, extra blankets offered, and towels offered
• Kitchen facility was good – provided lots of utensils, incl. toaster, hot water kettle, microwave and fridge
• Bathroom facilities were good, shower was great with hot water on demand, sink facilities, good toilet, and washing machine was a good bonus
• Lounge area was very functional and had enough seating to accommodate a good number of people, iron and ironing board provided (nice bonus)
• Nice little verandah area with outside table and seating
• Lots of clothes hanging lines in the verandah area
• Windows all covered in mosquito netting which was great for keeping everyone from getting bitten
• Parking provided next to house
• Proximity to kolo from Sams house was a good bonus
• Proximity to getting out of kolo was also good
• Nice big rubbish bin provided outside of the house which we used daily to empty out the smaller bins in the house
Improvement:
• Fridge needs replacing, the bottom part of the fridge did not work well, so food was spoiling. We ended up putting stuff in the freezer section on the top
• May want to provide foldable clothing racks so clothes can be hung inside the house. We washed our clothes and hung them on the lines provided outside but there was a lot of smoke from rubbish burning so our washing smelt like burnt rubbish
• Internet could have been better – maybe provide a router/extender in the house so signal is stronger
• Others may want an up-to-date TV in the house. This was not really a concern for us

Nina was outstanding - the house was NOT!
Nina, the caretaker, was the only positive aspect of our stay. She went above and beyond to make us as comfortable as possible and genuinely tried to help in every way she could. Unfortunately, aside from her efforts, there was nothing else about the property worth noting positively. Her service was exceptional, but the property itself did not meet expectations.
The cost of this property was massively inflated and completely unjustifiable for what we walked into — a rundown, dilapidated house that genuinely felt like it needed to be knocked down. I booked this place because it advertised a washing machine, only to arrive and find it wasn’t even connected. When I contacted the owner, I was told we would need to ask Nina to do our washing because he was "sick of tenants breaking machines." Had I known we couldn’t wash our own clothes, I never would have booked it.
The listing stated there were three bathrooms, yet only one shower had hot water. One toilet took all night to refill after flushing, leaving four women effectively sharing one usable bathroom — something that should have been disclosed.
Every room had black mould on walls and ceilings. The TV didn't work. The internet only functioned intermittently on mobile devices and constantly dropped out, making it impossible to download, upload, or call home. The microwave blew up mid-use, and later in the stay the fridge/freezer failed, spoiling all of our food. Not one dining chair had a secure seat, which was flat-out dangerous. There was sticky residue oozing from brickwork, paint flaking off ceilings and walls, stained toilets and sinks, no hot water in the kitchen, and the downstairs bathroom had no ceiling. The kitchen cupboards were literally hanging off their hinges. The house felt uninhabitable and a genuine health risk.
Outside was no better — the yard was full of old appliances, discarded building materials and general debris. The carport of our house even had an old unused minivan dumped inside it.
We attempted to leave due to concerns for our health, but due to a large event taking place in Tonga, which we were also attending there were no vacancies elsewhere. The only positive was Nina, the caretaker, who worked incredibly hard and went above and beyond to make our stay bearable despite everything wrong with the property.

We were generously upgraded to the Langakali house from the Heilala initially booked at no extra charge. This worked out perfect having the extra bathroom. The house was easily accessible on our arrival with overall good communication from the renters. Nina was beautiful and did countless loads of washing for us with no hesitation included in the accomodation price.
Green Lodge is close proximity to town and our families village so was a prime location for us. Screens on doors and windows were a plus, coils and basic toiletries and essentials were provided and ample storage throughout. A quiet area that felt very safe. Style of the house is older, but comfortable enough, we felt at home being here.
Although screens were throughout, you will still need repellent and extra coils. The ensuite bathroom toilet wouldn’t always flush properly and the wifi wasn’t working. It would be a plus to have one more fan in the third bedroom of the Langakali house and
