They have very comfortable new mattresses in the traditional fales- no holes in mosquito nets and bathrooms well maintained and clean. The breakfast was great and the dinners well worth the the small additional charhw
Traditional fale right on a beautiful beach
lovely area for sunset dinners which were the best we had in all out fale stays, with a great little bar there as well!
relaxing in the lovely lagoon looking back at the fales

What a beautiful location. Easy check-in, beach fale clean, bedding was comfortable. Booked for one night, wish it was longer though. Bathroom and showers easy to get to. Suggest maybe have some hanging hooks to hang clothes up. Dinner for 6 and was just the right amount. Breakfast was lite - love the pancakes! My only suggestion would be the strings to tie up the shutters were easier to find - that was a sweat sesh alone ha ha ha... Overall loved it and hoping to return.

Owners were lovely, other guests were very friendly. Had a nice atmosphere. Room had quite a lot of bugs and quite run down but still comfortable. Free breakfast was good and 35 tala dinner was also good. There was no wifi at all despite the listing saying you could pay for wifi

Owner/staff included visitors in a family celebration; they were so kind and generous. The beach setting is absolute paradise and it is central to so many of the sights. Also a small shop for snacks a 2-min walk away.

Right on the beach!

Great stay on the beach. Stayed in a fales, right on the beach…the surf may have been a bit noisy, but the view was incredible. Fales are very basic accommodations, a mattress, sheets and mosquito net. I think they have a/c units, but not on the beach. Breakfast was included and good.

Faofao fales were beautiful and right on the beach! Our included breakfast was delicious and the supper buffet always impressed. The staff were lovely and we particularly enjoyed the show on Saturday night. A true authentic and welcoming experience staying at a family run business. Highly recommend!

This was an absolutely fantastic experience. Staying in a traditional Samoan fale was awesome and the Legalo family made me feel like one of their own and the rest of the village was similarly hospitable. If you want a taste of what real life in Samoa is like, this is for you. Be sure to check out To Sua Ocean Trench and Lalomanu Beach and get plenty of time in at the bar and in the water. Salepaga is where time stands still in the best way possible. Shout out and massive thanks to Tapu, Tua, Ata, Afa, Paei, Saia, AJ, Talent and everyone else who made this an unforgettable experience.

Beautifully situated fales on the beach to enjoy a slice of paradise. Well presented fales. Staff really tried to make stay enjoyable. What let property down was the condition of the shared shower/toilet facilities. Enjoyed a lovely home cooked breakfast and could pay for dinner albeit a bit pricey.
