This property is very beautiful. The villas are nice. The staff was nice. The dining options are not great and the food could use improvement. I also don't love that there is no wifi. But I hope to be back.

A gorgeous resort tucked away on the South part of the island. The villa was spacious with a breathtaking view of the ocean. The staff was gracious, friendly and made me feel at home. I loved Sinalei so much, that I extended my stay even though I had a room paid for at another resort. I highly recommend and cannot wait to go back.

After reading some of the reviews I was worried about the condition of this place, but really we had a lovely stay and everything was what we needed. I will say, that you do have to alter your expectations for what you are paying. Our four night stay was a fortnight of my salary which did make the bank account cry. And I think when paying that much you expect absolute perfection. However, people often forget you're on an island where everything needs to be imported and that takes time and money. So do not compare it to any accommodation in NZ or AU that costs $500 a night, it will probably not match those level of expectations. However, we stayed for 3 nights initially at a 3 star resort prior to our stay here, and the quality difference is huuuge. It definitely a giant step up. the food was soo much better here, no broken windows, AC with temp control etc. Beach was beautiful, snorkeling was fun, staff were so lovely. Pool was unfortunately getting repaired which was a massive shame because it looked lovely, but the beach is so close its not the end of the world. My one improvement would be wifi. I know its harder on the island, but our first place had free wifi and so then coming to a place with not enough wifi extenders for everyone, and having to pay crazy amounts if you were lucky to get one was a bit of a shame.

The place has seen better days, it’s quite run down and not worth the premium price tag. Pictures online of the facilities are deceiving.

Beautiful resort
Our stay was very short unfortunately and we had only two nights at this beautiful resort. The room was large, clean and quiet. We ate at their restaurant on both nights, and the food was excellent. The manager and the guest relation staff came to talk to us to make sure if everything met our expectations. The staff work hard to make your stay as nice as possible. My only minor complaint is that the reception staff had no idea what services I could use my Hotels.com Gold member credit for. Not a big deal, but it would have been nice to be able to use it. Otherwise no complaints and we were happy there.

This was a beautiful resort. All the staff were friendly and the grounds are gorgeous! There was a mistake on our bill but we were able to get refunded the difference. We recommend the restaurant on the beach. The chef is outstanding. Things are pricey so be prepared for additions to the bill.

This place truly is paradise- beach front resort with immaculate gardens, restaurant has been built for the perfect beach and sunset views and our spa experience was amazing. The staff made us feel welcome from the moment we arrived, the villas are well positioned and private with a large social area around the pool area and open air bar. Unlike other resorts around Samoa this place has been well maintained and appears to have invested owners who genuinely care about your stay there. I personally loved the tropical gardens - variegated vines growing up tropical palms was just wow. I also enjoyed the subtle touches of vibrant flowers floating in large colourful pots around the resorts. Free kayaks, snorkels and paddle boards available for use for guests was also provided. Good food with great service - we could not fault our stay with this resort. We will be back!

Nice property and staff but very obviously lacking in management. The place itself is beautiful. That may sound cruel by they seriously need to address this. This is not a cheap place to stay and it needs a big lift in staff organisation and catering.

Best place to stay in Samoa on Upolu. Staff are wonderful, can’t do enough to make you comfortable. We’ve stayed here before and have stayed at other resort on Upolu. We visited other top resorts for lunch and were so happy to return to Sinalei every day
