Lovely place to stay on the south of the island. Really made us feel like we were having our island holiday. Lots of opportunities to go to the beach off the resort and using the pool. 10 min drive to To Sua Ocean Trench. Would stay again!

Great resort, very kid friendly. Staff were truly amazing. Only thing to note is the internet/local TV are pretty much non existent in the rooms. So a tip is pack some cards games etc. Location is great too.

Well designed, spacious resort, set in lovely gardens. Spotlessly clean. Small private beaches. Lovely pool area, but often noisy with children. Shortage of sun loungers, and often a long wait for pool towels. Quite a good choice on the menu: food ok

Beautiful resort. Well maintained, rooms were clean and comfy beds. The daily cleaning staff did a fabulous job. Fia Fia night was well worth it, show and food were great. The BBQ buffet was also amazing with stunning salads. Owners were happy to chat with us and were very friendly. Lunch menu was lovely too. The only down side was buffet breakfast food wasn't great and you have to follow up on orders as the staff service at restaurant was a bit average. Overall a fabulous experience and I would love to return.

8/10 Very good

A stunning resort with the friendliest, most kind and helpful staff. Beautiful basic rooms, lovely pool and grounds. In good weather, some great snorkelling but in bad weather and high trade winds, a difficult place to enjoy the ocean. Pays to have a hire car but the resort offers daily outings. Amazing menu and often have special events with special menus in the evenings. Also has a beautiful spa onsite but pays to book in advance as it books out fast in advance. Quite far from everywhere so best to plan to stay and relax with a few day trips out. We loved our stay, but personally prefer savaii with its white sand beaches, slower pace and incredible reef snorkelling and swimming. Might just be because we visited during a long period of rain and high winds though :)

8/10 Very good

Nice and clean resort and lots of ammenities. A few of the bars like the pool bar and waterside landing bar were not open when we there even though staff pointed us to them which was a bummer. The massage at the spa was great. If you're staying in the hotels room, the wifi did not reach our room and our tv and dvd player were broken and did not work which left us to hang around the reception on the days it was pouring rain. Great location for exploring the island and doing activities like waterfalls and To Sua Trench.
Verified review

8/10 Very good

The location was perfect to access many popular tourist spots like Ta Sua Trench and the Coastal Lava cliffs walk. The layout of the room was perfect for a family of four and we loved overlooking the ocean. Some door mats and a broom for the room would have been good to reduce sand but loved that there was a tap outside each room to wash feet. Unfortunately 3 days of rain and wind reduced our access to snorkelling and use of water sports and it would have been good for the resort to have rainy day activities linked to Samoan traditions as options. There was a large selection of options for food but we would only rate the food as average. Very family friendly with a playground for younger children.

Beautiful location. And friendly staff. Food was very good. Pool is wonderful And clean. But lack of working wifi was frustrating. The resort should really look into starlink with wifi extenders throughout the resort. The dvd collection was hopeless and jumbled. (missing or scratched discs).
