The facilities are old and the entire hotel is due for a major renovation. However, it is located on a beautiful beach, which was my main priority. We stayed in the 'honeymoon' suite...it was a basic room which included a mini fridge and ac. The food was better that I expected (delivered nightly) and the staff were friendly. This is... More

This place is like a bit of a horror movie. The beach is one of the best in the area and the snorkelling there is amazing but the accommodation isn't. This looks a lot like an old school camp site and more a hotel than a beaqch resort. Staff seemed completely disinterested and the food was irregular. Sometimes the chef... More

What a great location, but a pity that this place hasn't seemed to have done any upkeep or decent maintainance for goodness knows how long. When we pulled up we waited around for a long time and there was no reply to the front bell until another member of the staff wandered out into the dining area and then went... More

From the outside this place looked fine. got inside and thought we might stay. Brought a drink at the bar and as we were counting out the cash the bar attendant slipped some of it into her right hand & tried to tuck it away. paid for the drinks & asked her to return the money she'd secreted up her...

MAGIC! Wow. What a place...perfect beach...totally quiet and sublime place to see the sunset..... Incredible value for money by Samoan standards. We just couldn't believe that other places in crowded Manse were booked out/packed...while this gem was totally empty! Weird. Great food...they made whatever we wanted....(and who doesn't want lobster!?!?) and recommended we go to the local church on Sunday... More

just got back from Samoa stayed in several places, as this was our second visit as soon as we got off the ferry we headed strait for Vaisala Hotel and spent 6 days there it was great to be back. Great staff best rooms and and buy far best value accomodation we found anywhere in samoa.The beach is also excellent... More

We found this hotel to be one of the best accommodations in Samoa. We wanted space, peace and quiet, swimming and snorkelling at anytime - and we found it. In fact the best coral during our 4 week trip around both islands was here - about half way out to the reef on the east/right hand side of the beach... More

this hotel, is one strange place, (for good reasons) it's just so different. from the newer fancy hotels v the Beach fale setup. good place, awesome beach good food, great staff. I think my only gripe was the mattress on the bed may have seen better days. would heartily recommend.

Our family of 7 adults and 1 toddler stayed at Vaisala for one night during our savaii island tour - I originally requested for one quad room and two self-contained units (airconditioned), however when we arrived, we only got the quad room with the exemption of the self-contained units as we ended up with the double/twin room, one fan and...
