Lovely place, beautiful surroundings and staff are nice. Recommendations; They are building new facilities outside the hotel rooms but they start work at 7am with hammering, it was not a nice way to wake up each night! Safe didn’t work, asked 3 times for it to be get the batteries replaced and fixed but no one ever turned up. If you hire a scooter it is mandatory to use their insurance, regardless if you have your own. Air conditioning remote was broken and being fixed, so we couldn’t change the settings

The Resort itself is stunning. We had a lovely beachfront Villa. Rooms are a great size, had a amazing outdoor shower but the villas could certainly do with a couch inside and better lighting. They also need to supply more facecloths. Only given one each day for the two of us!The WIFI is absolutely terrible and only works in the reception area and restaurant. The daily breakfast is nice with good options but had to ask staff many times to replace items like spoons and cups as there were none to use. Also the cereals containers empty many times. Most of the staff were lovely, some could use a smile every now and then. Swim up pool bar closes way to early and we also found the food a bit of a hit and miss. Not enough options on the menu for non seafood eaters. The Fia fia night was great but would of been nice to know there was also a bbq night. Were never told about this. One last thing, housekeeping continuously waking us up at 8am each morning. Way to early!

Compared to Sheraton and Taumeasina, Saletoga food is the best. We had 4 kids under 5 and they ALL enjoyed the food. Their accomodation was very good and the staff were attentive. Full of smiles and hellos from all the staff was nice. The beach was beautiful and we all had a great time. Outdoor shower was ok, just don’t hang around cos the mozzies are vicious! lol also wear lots of repellent as due to such lush gardens, the mozzies are plenty 😅

Resort was nice but staff need to be a little bit more friendly and inviting. First time at the resort and it was beautiful however Service was not great especially from the villas, I wasn’t able to share much about my time at Saletoga until I got better service. But overall was a great experience.

Saletoga is about 1hour and ten minutes from the airport in a more remote part of the island (about 45 minutes from Apia). Saletoga itself was a beautiful property with a beautiful beach where you can snorkel (recommend swimming shoes). It came with kayaks and snorkelling gear. The pool was great especially for kids - and had a kids area. Due to capacity only the main restaurant was open and main bar but the food was good. The included breakfast came with both hot and cold food which was yummy. Upgraded to the beach front villas - highly recommend! Beautiful and clean rooms

We loved the free breakfast in the morning and love the lunch menu and eat in the restaurant most days. The facilities had great options! Snorkelling, kayaking etc...

The whole place is well maintained and beautiful gardens. One of our favourite resorts in Samoa and we have stayed at most of them. A must stay if you visit the beautiful paradise of Samoa.

A very beautiful property. Beautiful beach right out the front with snorkeling right in front of you. 2 restaurants to choose between the themed buffet or a la carte. Room was very spacious with all the necessities. It would be nice to have maybe a couch inside to relax on, as one chair isn’t very good for 2 people. Same with outside, we had two chairs and a table, but only one lounge to relax outside. Pool was quite warm so not so good for cooling off, but great for a night swim. Resort was amazing for relaxing, but didn’t offer a lot of activities if you want to do things there (plenty of tours available on select days at attractions). We are a pretty active couple so got bored after a couple days. Not much around if you don’t have transport so eating at the restaurant can get pricey but food was delicious and the breakfast was nice.
