Liked: Cleanliness
Clean rooms, attentive staff and excellent grounds keepers, very hard workers. The staff at the day spa were exceptional, fantastic massage. Its remote location forced you to relax and enjoy your surroundings. My only piece of advice would be to extend wifi access to the rooms instead of just the reception and restaurant area. Overall, good stay.
Used the outdoor shower a lot as it was so hot during our stay.
Morning walk around the resort.

Pool was great

The housing we were in was the best. Room 404 Clean tidy and felt new. A very peaceful stay, we were away from the main dining area yet not too far to walk to the main dining areas. The pool was amazing nice and refreshing so cool compared to the ocean and had so much fun with my children and grandchildren

The resort was just as advertised, thanks for the fantastic room upgrade, that really made our holiday comfortable. Freely available kayaks, snorkeling gear and reed shoes were excellent. The staff were all so friendly kind and helpful, no complaints there. The resort is quite isolated and far from airport and Apia, but the local taxis are affordable and available. Definitely take a taxi from the airport if there is more than one person in your party, very affordable. Fantastic breakfasts included and until 10.30!! The Fiafia night was a great experience and the savoury food was delicious. The restaurant and bar prices are high, as I believe all are on the island. There isn't anywhere close where you can choose to eat. Having said that the food is delicious and plentiful (mostly). There is a shop close by at the To Sua trench where you can get snacks etc at very reasonable prices. Taxis will take you for an all day hire for around $350WST, so you can see all the sights for a very low cost. I'd highly recommend Saletoga Sands Resort for your Samoan holiday.
