Hotel 2-Star di Atua, Samoa

The views are fantastic from this place. It is a huge property owned by a single family. The fales are good enough. The host, Mr. Paul from NZ and his Samoan wife arranged the setup quickly for me for my late check-in. The breakfast was served nicely the next day. Common washrooms and toilets are nicely maintained. The only drawback is this place is located very far from the main Apia city. So if you do not have a owned or a rented vehicle, choose this place wisely because getting there is very difficult through buses. There was only 1 morning bus running on this route in June 2026 due to fuel crisis. No buses on Sunday in Samoa.

We planned to spend two days here, but eventually we extended directly for cash stay and stayed for a week. It was a wonderful, incomparable holiday and the best beach for all our journey. Including thanks to the family of the hotel owner, who, despite the language barrier on our part, has made a lot of effort to make us feel comfortable. The hotel owner is a very interesting interlocutor. Fa'afetai. Be prepared for these waves in a half-hour to two hours from Apia, buses only in the day. Many mosquitoes and ants, baldachin saves at night. On the palm of coconuts hang mature. Soap is better to have your own. No hot water in the shower. Many dogs, but kind of harmless. There is nothing nearby, only a couple of local shops where there is beer, snow and so on, at the bar in the hotel too. Dining twice a day breakfast: eggs, fresh fruit, sausages, pancakes, bread with supplements, coffee soluble, black tea and milk; dinner: chicken grill, delicious fish white or tuna, rice, vegetable salad, carrie potatoes, maniac, bread. Fortunately, no fast food was picked. Be prepared for that WiFi will not always and rare, usually at night!!! People a little bit quite. Full relaxation. Listen to Samoan music, it is diverse and beautiful. You need to live some time to feel this place. It will be remembered. Fa'afetai lava.

The owner is very nice, generous, kind. He has prepared a delicious and typical dinner, with fresh fish fished the day itself in traditional way.  Thank you!
