Self Catering Accommodation in Salamumu

The breakfast was amazing and was plenty provided by the host. More than what we expected and she was very warm and welcoming to us every time she came! The rooms were big and clean and the house was spacious. The location was close to everything and the host was so lovely! Every room was airconditioned so we had an amazing and comfortable stay. The house is beautiful as well, couldn't have asked for a better place! Would definitely stay here again if we come back to Samoa.

Brand new pods (2) located right opp the resort entrance. No clutter! I had the back dark grey pod which is great and has a spare room for luggage. The matrass was super comfy and clean. This is a place that does not smell of milddew nor had mold because it is brand new. I had a good rest as i was coming down with a cold from the relentless days of rain and strong winds (unexpected for May) Lunch and Dinner are a nice stroll distance to the resort (another of Ramo s tips!) where you can pay by card. 24 hr taxi stand is also only like a 3 min walk and they are good people. 20 tala to robert louis stevenson and 7 to palolo deep (can also walk 2km). Note that this property turned out not have facilities to pay by card on arrival as yet- so bank transfer to NZD account or pay with card through airbnb or being able carrying a few hundred USD in (Tala) cash is the way to go atm (May 2025). Ramo can organise a 2.30 am legit taxi pick up for you if you have that early 5 am flight out, so you can be assured and pricing is the same (90 tala). Malentino is an fab driver, can hold an interesting conversation and his van is clean, so it is comfortable to ride the 45 min to the airport. Best is the landlord Ramo with any help you need he will assist though whats app. Eg an umbrella for the rains or replaces a smelling blanket and as it was my birthday he offered to lend me one of his guitars and brought over the Sunday paper out of his own initiative, which was absolutely fab! Also brought over some fruits and gave me a lift to a place 5 min away which was soo kind! I booked 3 nights over the Mothersday long weekend and extended my stay with a night. I’m the first guest on through booking.com and highly recommend it! The pods is quiet at night and one can close the gate which adds to feeling of safety (I’m a solo women traveler).

We really enjoyed our stay! The lodge was clean, comfortable, and well equipped with everything we needed. We especially appreciated the thoughtful touches like the snacks, milk, and water provided on arrival. The location was fantastic—just a short walk to Taumesina Resort or Taumesina Hideaway for dinner, and there’s a taxi stand conveniently located right across the road. Ruta was fantastic—she was there waiting with the keys when we arrived and was quick and easy to communicate with via text. Would definitely recommend staying here!

The owner waited for my arrival in the accommodation to handle the key. He has helped me to arrange local SIM card, drove me around to get an idea about the location. Help and and great personal approach.

Last minute booking, made to feel very welcomed. Gave some local tips and didn't mind that I said I'd have some family visit now and then throughout the stay.

No complaints. Everything you need to feel as if you're at home.

Location/Facilities/Garden setting: Perfect for our family and for our elderly father. It was our home away from home.

I was notify by the owner earlier before we arrived the cottage is ready for us. The place is clean and comfortable during our stay. The BBQ takeaway right infront of the cottage so you don't need to go out for lunch and dinner very tasty and beautiful menu. Our staying in Samoa Home was awesome. Highly recommended Samoa Home if you and your family looking for a better and comfortable place to stay. Gb

I would call this place, "A home away from home". The whole house is perfect to accomodate a whole family. I would recommend this home for every family who's planning a vacation to Apia. The owners are the best. Thank you for welcoming us, we look forward to stay there again. May God bless this home as well as the owners.

Very clean and very beautiful. I will always recommend Fugalei Motel when I go to Samoa.
