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.

Sleeping in the fale on the beach and listening to the ocean sound was an absolute trip highlight. The owner and her family were so friendly and welcoming. The meals were plentiful and delicious. We would definitely recommend this place.

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.

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.
