I didn't like the fact that there was a nest of "Fire Ants" in the bed. They changed the bed sheets but not the bed or the room. Had the same problem the next night as well. I got badly bitten.

The staff were very friendly, food and drink were great. Location is amazing being right on the beach but there’s really nothing else around (not a bad thing if you’re prepared for it). No wifi in the rooms which we weren’t expecting and we work remotely so this made things tricky! There was also no data service in our particular room. Otherwise incredible! Snorkelling off the beach was great.

We had a Beach front Villa and loved the view of the Lagoon . You felt relaxed and in paradise just listening too and watching the waves break on the reef from the front deck of the Villa. The Coconut trees and sandy beach were majestic. We were only a short stroll past the outdoor pool to the Restaurant . The Breakfast choices was incredible. We worked our way through the Dinner Menu each night and the food was cooked amazing. All the staff on site are so friendly and obliging. The gardens and surrounds are beautiful, it's like living in an Oasis. We can't fault Saletoga Sands Resort and will come back for sure. Highly recommend this Resort.

Average

I booked this resort as it had a high ranking but I didn’t think it deserves that ranking. Our tv and dvd player didn’t work, our shower was constantly cold. Batteries for remotes needed replacing. I was at reception constantly complaining. Also they decided to water blast the roof of our villa. I asked if they could come another day as I wasn’t impressed with the amount I paid to be disrupted by constant noise. They complied but did the villa next door. The staff have little knowledge on things like daily food specials or info on tours. Poor communication and average service from staff. Average resort for the price paid

2 night stop over between trip to Savaii and flight out. Accommodation cleana and spacious. Beach not so good. Pools only at low tide. Food average and Auz NZ prices. No other options qhile at the resort. DvDs available in room for free. Felt more like a cruise commercial vibe as lots of people in clo a e proximity.We prefer more authentic and smaller places to stay in Samoa. Owners friendly and clearly catering for average aus nz tourists.

It takes a lot of effort and determination to run a big property like this. Perfect for families as there is ample room in the villas. The beach is safe, the pool awesome. The whole property is set up really well and the breakfast wholesome and they try and mix it up a bit. Food is nicely cooked ( menu is lacking a tad but the breakfast makes up for that ). Allow just over an hour from the Airport and a rental car is strongly recommended ( albeit they do offer transfers ). Things that could do with Improvement: Clithes washing facilities ( to have the resort do it is super expensive ). Staff spitting into the gardens ( seems to me they are not proud of where they work? ). All up a very enjoyable stay!

Lovely place, beautiful surroundings and staff are nice. Recommendations; They are building new facilities outside the hotel rooms but they start work at 7am with hammering, it was not a nice way to wake up each night! Safe didn’t work, asked 3 times for it to be get the batteries replaced and fixed but no one ever turned up. If you hire a scooter it is mandatory to use their insurance, regardless if you have your own. Air conditioning remote was broken and being fixed, so we couldn’t change the settings
