Hotel berhampiran Falefa Falls, Faleapuna

Love the staff and their private beach and restaurant truly amazing experience the only hiccup is that it is miles away from everywhere but if you want a very private and peaceful location this is it and super cheap, the rooms are basic and could do with updating but otherwise it was just divine!

We spent a wonderful time at Saletoga Sands. The New Zealand owners Gav and Lou, who are very concerned about the well-being of their guests, have turned this resort into a tropical paradise with very friendly staff. Unfortunately, the beach suffered a lot due to a cyclone. We can only recommend the very spacious and clean beachfront bungalow with an outdoor and indoor shower. From our terrace you had a wonderful view of the sea and the jetty, as well as the amazing sunsets, and you were just a few steps away from the crystal clear water. Unfortunately, there was no internet in the bungalows, so we were happy to be able to visit the beautiful pool area, which also offered WiFi, a few meters behind our bungalow. WiFi is also available in the lobby and restaurant area. The a la carte food was very tasty, and there were also various theme nights such as pasta night or the typical Samoan FiaFia night every Wednesday with a great buffet. Breakfast was included and good, egg dishes could be ordered for an extra fee. It should also be mentioned that all the garden lighting is turned off at 9:30 p.m. and after this time you need the flashlight on your cell phone to get to your beachfront bungalow, which is at the other end of the resort. There is also the option of renting kayaks, paddleboards and snorkeling equipment for free. As Saletoga Sands is somewhat remote, we recommend renting a car to explore the island, which you can also rent on site, like the scooters. The infrastructure outside of Apia, however, leaves a lot to be desired in some parts. You have the opportunity to visit other beautiful beaches nearby, as well as the popular To Sua Ocean Trench. For souvenirs and other things, we recommend a visit to Apia, which is an hour away, as there is only a small mini-market in the resort and there are hardly any other shops nearby. Organized trips to Apia are also offered weekly at the resort. Due to its somewhat remote location, we decided to spend a few days in Apia, from where you can also take trips to neighboring islands, and to choose the Saletoga Sands in the south to relax. It was the perfect choice for us!

We stayed here at the end of our 8 day trip and all I can say was it was beautiful. Taumeasina was very busy (Mothers Day weekend) but that didn't stop the wonderful service we were welcomed with lei's and welcome drinks and escorted to our beautiful room (210) perfectly close but far enough away for some peace and quiet. I travelled with my Mother and 2 sisters and wished we had booked here first and stayed for a little bit longer. We also attended the FIA FIA night and that was such a good show and so fun. The only negative was not being having the best seat for FIA FIA night as we were located closer to the back and I think due yo the weather (rainging) they had set up under the shelter which from where we were seating was hard to see most of the show but from what we did see it was a beautiful show. We hope to be back again soon to enjoy the beautiful resort and its amenities. Fa'afitai lava

Great hotel!

The customer service at Insel was the best we experienced our whole time in Samoa. The buffet breakfast was yummy with a good selection of hot & cold foods. We stayed in the Superior room on the 2nd floor, the beds were comfy, our room was clean, plus the air con & fan work brilliantly which was bliss. The pool is lovely for cooling off in the heat. Overall the place is a bit dated so doesn't look much from the road but they keep it clean & tidy, the laundry was so useful & the gift shop very reasonably priced! The location was great for food stores nearby, Giordano's over the road is the place to go for lunch & dinner, plus there's a massage place 2 doors down which is handy. Highly recommend for value for money

Outstanding place to stay Great team owner is very polite. Our night staff lady on front desk fotu she is outstanding every night she would be so happy to see you always so very polite with her weight in gold. She would always make sure everyone was ok and happy so pleasant to talk toad were all the crew. The hotel was so clean and fresh friendly the breakfast were always beautiful and fresh and a real pleasure in the morning. In the morning there was a young girl called Rachel she was always so busy and polite brought my wife and I coffee with a big smile. Honestly I can not say enough about this little hotel usually I would say you get what you pay for but not in this case you get so much more then what you pay for. I would gladly suggest this hotel to all of my friends and family and I will be returning in my opinion I can not say a bad thing about this place

We stayed here only 2 days after they reopened. The facilities are beautiful, but at our time of stay we weee clearly informed that they were only partially open, so there were a couple of tiny kinks to iron out. We still had access to a pool and beautiful buffet breakfast. We didn't dine there for dinner, but guaging from the breakfast, it would have beautiful. The beds were insanely comfortable! And staff incredibly welcoming! We have booked to stay there again in a few days time. We loved it.
