    I stayed 7 nights with a small group of friends. Overall it really was lovely and possibly one of the nicer places to stay in Samoa. I have a 3 stars only for rooms and service mainly due to the lack of somewhere to unpack so I didn't have to live out of the suitcase, not getting enough towels, face cloths etc per person and having to ask repeatedly for the same thing. It was also a real mission to book a massage! Most of the staff were lovely and helpful, though, and the two resident cats were totally lovable. The ground are beautiful too.

    Had a meal only, didn't stay in rooms. Had friends staying here, went back to their room, was very spacious, open and light. Plenty of room with a table and chair, lounges in one corner, table and chairs on patio. Bathroom very well appointed with large inside shower and also a lovely outdoor shower. Had an issue with no hot water, but this was corrected within half an hour once office advised, seems this is an issue with every checking but corrected no problem. Meals very nice, good specials board in main restaurant. Has a beachfront small bar which does happy hour every day. Resort has a large pool area and also easy access to a small beach and ocean for swimming and snorkeling. Totally recommend resort for a stay or just popping in for a meal or drink.

    If you want a 5 star, silver service resort with wifi everywhere so you can doomscroll all day, find somewhere else. If you want an authentic, friendly resort that provides a more off-grid but comfortable experience, go to Saletoga. We had a fabulous 6 days in a comfortable exclusive villa. We were welcomed at the airport by smiling staff & bottles of water, and despite the flight delay resulting in a late night arrival, had a smooth check in to the resort Staff were friendly, welcoming and helpful. There was always lots of smiles, laughter and singing around the resort. The food was incredibly good; the fia fia night buffet was delicious with lots of choice and flavours. The curries were also outstandingly good. We had massages from the day spa, which worked out a few aches but left us feeling relaxed. There was plenty to do, from tours to exploring the reef with the water sports equipment or snorkelling. It was really the perfect escape for us; it was genuine, enjoyable and well-presented, and we would absolutely stay here again.

    Spent 5 nights in March 2026. Our room was upgraded free of charge to a beach front room which was amazing. All staff were lovely to deal with. We had 2 free 30 minute massages as part of our package which were were top notch. Went on the tour to the To Sua Ocean Trench which was really easy and our driver had good knowledge of the area. Highly recommend going to the Lava fields whilst there which our guide told us about as that was amazing. Food was good, size and quality great. Could get a little repetitive if staying for a long time. BBQ Buffet was amazing, highly recommend.

    Amazing stay at Saletoga Resort. Staff were super friendly, especial shoutout to Farani. Resort is beautiful and with many facilities to enjoy. Breakfast was delicious and abundant with many options, even gluten free (super hard to find gf food anywhere in Samoa). The food at the restaurant was also delicious and varied in options. There was BBQ night on Saturdays and Samoan food buffet on Wednesdays with an amazing traditional show done by the staff. So cool to watch. The only downside is the wifi connection which was very poor. And also, the location is nice but there isn’t any other restaurant in the area, so the only dining option is the hotel’s restaurant, which is good, but it’s something relevant to have into consideration.
