We have to agree with lots of the comments made by other travellers lately. We stayed for a week, with 2 teen kids. The place fitted the needs of our budget and location and the staff was friendly but there was a lot of room for improvements, some of it would taken very little to fix. So you might need to adjust your expectations as the pics show everything a bit "too pretty" and it is definitely not 4 stars! 40 min drive to Apia and the same to the south coast so sort of centrally located. * Communications: We booked the 3 bedroom place via the website, then got an email 2 days later letting us know it is already booked, offering 2 bedrooms instead. Asked about bedding configuration and cost, never got an answer after 2 weeks. Then called, booked on phone, emailed multiple times for confirmation and payment details to no avail. 2 weeks before our trip, I emailed twice to ask about safe and beach towel availibility- no response at all. * The room: It was spacious and clean enough apart from hair left in shower. No hair dryer, got one from reception. Very small fridge struggling to cool our water, hot to touch on side. Light had no adapter, bed side lights not working. After booking the 2 bedroom place, we had asked about a rollaway or matress for our teen which wasn't there when we arrived, until we had asked and got it. The "safe": no key and not bolted to anything! Rubbish outside the room in the garden. No way to dry our towels or togs, had to hang everything over the very sp**** furniture. A clothes airer 30x30 cm is not enough! Despite the room being for 4 people, only 2 arm chairs and 1 dining chair, leaving the 4th person having to sit on a water bottle box. 1 coat hanger in the room and absolutely nowhere to hang it so don't bring any nice dresses! 2 cups with 1 spoon, nothing else to make any food/drinks. Nowhere to sit and play games with the family as outside was only 1 bench too (usually covered in towels drying), not even a table for a drink. We were told to sing out if we want our room serviced. We didn't need to but asked for new towels and left our bin outside after 3-4 days but then had to chase it to get it back! At the end of our stay, we were also disappointed to see that all the bottles we had kept separate for recycling ended up in the big rubbish bag... * The "grounds": Snorkelling was quite good, even at low tide and fish close to the shore. Bit of a current. The loungers: most were broken, all were filthy and could have done with a paint job. Mats must have been 20 years old. the ONE kayak leaked and looked so unsafe that even my sea-worthy guys were not keen to go further than 100m off the beach. No bikes as shown in the pictures somewhere. The pool was lovely when we arrived but on day 6 they realised it was super murky- way too late to fix it! Nobody used it on our last 2 days! The gardens were nice. *The food: had dinner in the restaurant on 1st night and it was horrible and expensive (35-40T/main)! Not sure how fri
