The lodge was in a great area. Not too far from town but not too close so that there was less noise throughout the day but 5 minute drive to town. The staff was great and the room was awesome. We didn't need much, as long as there was air-con in the room to cool us down after a hot day outside, then it was great. The view at the dining area was amazing, with a front row seat of the Pacific Ocean and a small island in between. The staff was amazing and hospitable to us, and accommodating to our needs. Its a great place to stay, affordable, convenient and gives that island vibe.

It was very clean, sparsely furnished, but the beds were very comfortable and the air conditioning efficient. It did get a bit cold in the night with only a sheet.

I didn't realise the bathroom was shared till i arrived as some rooms clearly state shared bathroom others you scroll down to read it. The bed was incredibly comfortable and staff were nice and helpful and location was great. The one thing that let it down is the sheets and towels were stained and bathroom didnt seem to be cleaned in the two days i was there.

My trip was a quick overnight to connect on a flight back home to America Samoa. The room was clean with a/c, staff was friendly and helpful. Nothing to not like as I didn’t stay long enough to enjoy the property. Highly recommend this resort!

Good for snorkeling, nice staff, recommended

This pleasant guesthouse has 5 clean, recently renovated rooms with shared bathrooms. Great: well- equipped kitchen for guest use ( fee ), eating area, nice lounge. Hot water and air condition. Good value! The grounds, which are in good order, are situated on a small road along the seacoast on the edge of Apia. Little traffic noise. Palolo Deep marine reserve lies just down the road- one of the few places in Samoa where you can find intact coral right on the beach. Some criticism: Curtains in the room didn´t block out sunlight. Some issues with insects. In the morning, staff will be around the house, listening to music, watching TV, chatting- don´t expect any quiet after 7.30 am.

Man får det man betalar för. Standarden var ok. Men städningen var det lite si och så med. I resturangköket så var det ingen högre standard.
