We had a fabulous relaxing break… beautiful room and surroundings, good meals and particularly enjoyed barbeque night and nightly cocktails at the landing bar. Staff were friendly and helpful, lovely pool and beach area. Only negative was that there was only reasonable internet at the main restaurant and reception but no wifi in the room. Would love to return 😊

Beautiful well kept gardens, large clean rooms, Samoan staff friendly. Great breakfasts with good variety Food and drink expensive - especially in the resort shop. No other options, no shops in walking distance. Unfortunately My husband got sick for 24 hours after eating bbq chicken pizza which put a dampener on our stay. Other than that- was a relaxing stay with beautiful sunsets.
