    There was nothing to dislike.

    This place is a must stay if you're in Samoa. The view is out of this world and the atmosphere other worldly. Watching the sunrise and the bats return to roost a never to forget experience. The dining area looks over this same view. Lolita is a lovely person making sure we had everything we needed and was super friendly and welcoming. All the staff were great. We managed the climb to the property on our laden scooters no problem at all. Very peaceful and cooler air for sleeping than Apia itself. We would definitely visit again and highly recommend.

    A bit of a drive to get to, with the driveway a little rough in places. Small annoyances with the room includes the mirror being too low, the shower head being too low, the outside light being on all night, no bedside table, and all the lights controlled by one switch (so no subdued lighting possible).

    Amazing views perched high up on the hillside. Ate dinner there each night and the fish and Samoan vegetables were really nice. Staff really friendly and accommodating.

    The pool is a bit small, would be a bit crowded with more than four people in it, but its nice and cooling.

    Nice breakfast, variety of foods each day, lovely views, friendly staff, due to the altitude its a nice temperature and lower humidity, lovely big lawn next to the little pool to relax on, if you want a good workout each day you would just need to do a few repeats of there driveway, very steep, perfect for getting heart rate up.

    The iron borrowed needs to be upgraded, very old and keeps going off.

    Great to have local fruits and food for breakfast, and hear the birds early in the morning. Nice to meet the actual legendary Dave Parker too and his wife Malama and daughter. Being on the mountain is inspirational.

    The pool has no ladder to get out. So not good for people who have upper body issues.

    The food was delicious. Nice and quiet and a million dollar view of Apia town.

    My family and I stayed for three nights. It was a beautiful stay with breathtaking views, delicious breakfasts, and a fantastic dinner on on of the nights. The service was excellent, especially thanks to Lolita, who was very friendly and made us feel comfortable and welcome. The staff was brilliant, and while the accommodations may not be flash, it suites the environment, and the bed was comfortable. Highly recommended.

    Ladder for the pool would help the young and the older guests. Buildings/decor are a little tired but the affordable price reflects this.If you were like us , out and about all day it is okay.

    A million dollar view away from any hustle and bustle.Staff worth a million dollars, nothing was too much trouble. Nice traditional breakfast, not too big but enough. Nice to have a swimming pool to cool down in the afternoon. Met a lot of interesting people who had done a lot of travelling around the world.Loved the sunrises and sunsets and watching the bats return home early in the morning. Great view on Sunday’s when all the umus were cooking…smoke across Apia.

    From the moment you are picked up from the airport (pre arranged) you feel like you are part of the family. All the staff, under Lolita’s guiding hand are amazing, friendly, professional - everything that you want when travelling abroad :). The food is great, drinks are cold, and the views are to die for.

    A wonderful experience. Superb location set in tropical forest, it provides exemplary support from management and staff. We really appreciated the shuttle to Apia each day if we wanted to explore further. Undoubtedly a wonderful introduction to the charm and friendliness of Samoa.
