Beautiful resort! Great for families. Close to Lalomanu beach and the trench. A car would be a good idea if you are wanting to explore as it is a bit of an isolated location. Loved and totally recommend.

The property is gorgeous, we loved our 8 night stay. We stayed in the Matai suite, again, lovely - but an upgrade in the bed and linens would not go astray. Also, gardeners woke us around 6 am every day. Very annoying.

Lovely resort setting however let down by Not delivering what they advertise . 1) Matai fale states a 50” tv however actually only approx 29”. 2) room stated a free bottle of bubbles , fresh fruit and flowers upon arrival which we never received during our 14 day stay. 3) upon arrival told our booked room was unavailable so had to spend first night in another room. As compensation they offered free fia fia night , however was charged to our room upon leaving. 4) emailed the manager with our concerns but no response or acknowledgment. Wouldn’t recommend staying when they don’t deliver what they advertise and then don’t communicate with you .

If we had to come back to Samoa we would stay here again. We had an aircon and fan in our room, our room was a quick walk from the bar and pool. The staff were friendly and we enjoyed the fiafia night. The only improvement I would recommend is adding wifi to the rooms or channels for the TV. Overall a good stay! The driver that picked us up from the airport was very helpful with his tips on the island.

Quality resort in a great beach setting. Good separation of the accommodation units. Nice pool and central restaurant area. Free breakfast buffet was great. Good menu options for other meals. All charges went back to room, dont have to worry about paying each time. Rooms serviced daily. Free wifi available when asked for, but could only access in restaurant/pool areas. Well designed and lovely tropical feel to resort. Some of the water equipment from the beach hut was poorly maintained. No TV service avail in roons although room had TV.

Really nice relaxing resort. Maybe need to upgrade drinks at pool bar and provide some snacks during happy hour. Also the band at dinner shouldn't include children as it's not nice listening to children sing inappropriate lyrics beyond their years. Maybe just stick to nice Samoan songs.

The resort is lovely overall, beautiful gardens maintained by the hardworking, smiling staff, very nice pool area, Possibly the only slight negatives were the hit and miss food at the restaurant, and not having free wifi everywhere in the hotel and grounds,( pretty much a universal standard in most hotels these days) and having to get vouchers for it everyday, A lovely place with lovely staff
