Stevenson's at Manase

About this property

Stevenson's at Manase is a long-established beachfront resort on Savai'i's north coast, set on the same Manase white-sand stretch as several other family-run beach-fale operators. The location is the property's strongest asset — direct beach access with excellent snorkelling out front, including resident turtles. Recent guest feedback consistently notes that the resort itself is overdue for renovation: paint, decks, and the pool have all been flagged as needing maintenance, and rooms vary in condition. Travellers comfortable with a worn-but-functional resort, rather than a polished one, generally still report a positive stay for the location alone. Mosquito nets are provided; checking yours on arrival is sensible. Best suited to guests prioritising the beach and snorkelling over room finish. Manase has several alternative dining options within a short walk if the on-site kitchen doesn't appeal on a given evening.

• Best stays in Samoa: where to sleep across Upolu and Savai'i

  Samoa's accommodation runs the full spectrum — from US$30-a-night beach fales where you sleep open-air to the lagoon, through family-run boutique hotels in Apia, all the way to five-star resorts with overwater bungalows. Picking the right one depends entirely on what you're after: barefoot authenticity, restaurant variety, or a swim-up bar.

• Best stays in Savai'i, Samoa

  Savai'i is the second-largest island in Polynesia and Samoa's quiet half — most travellers spend two or three nights here on a Samoa trip. Accommodation is mostly family-run: traditional beach fales along the coast, a handful of mid-range resorts, and a few eco-lodges set back from the road.

• Best beaches in Samoa

  Samoa's beaches are the kind that consistently top "world's best" lists and somehow stay uncrowded. Most are on customary land — you'll pay a small village fee (typically WST 5–20) at the gate, which goes back into maintaining the site. Below: the ones our travellers come back about.

  Hello, (French writting in english. Sorry for mistakes). Reading some comments my wife and me worried. We are currently in the middle of a 5 nights stay in this place. We are in a villa. Until now nothing wrong happened. Yes, it's a little but old but me knew we haven't booked in a palace. The crew is nice and smiling mostly when you use basic samoan words (Hello, thank you, have a good day...). The accommadation is good. Nothing to say. We have read this comments: - bugs on the bed: we didn't see any. - cats jumping on your legs: there are cats but they don't jump on you (except some if if you pet them). - swimming pool not clean: looks ok. - fridge is rusty: yes, the bottom of the door is rusty but the fridge works perfectly. Rust in a salted atmospher often happens. - bad food: fully disagree (we had only dinners) Good snorkeling in front of the bar especially if you go a lillte away from the shore ("holes" in the corals with various fish and corals). We met turtles in the end of the afternoon, close to the shore. A very good surprise regarding some comments! We won't hesitate to come back here.

  Nice resort on the beach. Each room had its own color scheme and the layout was pretty cool. Great views of both sunrise and sunset. Did not have a TV in the room but I did not mind as much as the kids did.

  The layout of this place is very odd. There is never anyone at reception and if you ever manage to find someone they are not friendly or welcoming. I had to keep asking the gardener questions, at least he was helpful. I would not stay there again.

  The resort was okay, needing a major upgrade!!! But the rooms were disgusting 🤮 cock roaches crawling in the beds, up the walls in the cupboards! The smell of the room was so off putting & wouldn’t go away! The workers in the resort were nice & the location is beautiful but the resort itself needs to shut down & worked on. I dont recommend staying here especially with young children.

  Stayed here for a week. Great spot but needs a refresh of paint and the pool needs a good clean and tiles put back in place. Would of been beautiful when it was first built. Food was average but other places to eat close by.

  As others have said the place is way past it's hay day, in desperate need of maintenance. While we were there part of the deck was being replaced so hopefully this is a sign of things to come. Getting down to the beach was dodgy due to slippery rocks. My suggestion would be a floating pontoon, easy made with half a dozen mussel buoys. The meals were expensive and not particularly traditional Samoan, though the fish crepe entrées were a bargin, delicious and not much smaller than the mains. The staff were friendly and helpful and the beautiful location were highlights. More like staying at a NZ bach than a 3 star hotel.
