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!

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.

There was no ‘room’ set up when we arrived and the place seemed like it was not really open for business. We left to find proper accomodation.

We loved our fale with traditional collapsible panels rather than ugly tarp. The fale was right on the beach, simply stunning! Our host was lovely and helpful. A great place to stay with awesome snorkeling.

A beautiful location with lovely hosts. They were very welcoming and friendly. The breakfast was very good as well. If you want to truly experience Samoa this is the way to do it instead of staying in a resort. I wish I could’ve stayed there for longer. It’s definitely somewhere I plan on going back to.
