Fabulous resort with wonderful staff

The resort was located in a beautiful setting overlooking the sea with a pier area. Kayaks and snorkel gear were available but sizes could be a problem with the swim fins. The dining area was centrally located and neatly set for each meal with a bar area next to the pool. Meals were very good, but there is little else in the area for eating away from the resort. Unfortunately because of the weather the outdoor shower was not really convenient, and the covered basin and toilet area were constantly flooded. Pool towels were often unavailable and staff were lovely but slow to respond to requests. A great place for a quiet, relaxing escape.

extremely friendly, best resort in Samoa

This property is very beautiful. The villas are nice. The staff was nice. The dining options are not great and the food could use improvement. I also don't love that there is no wifi. But I hope to be back.

A gorgeous resort tucked away on the South part of the island. The villa was spacious with a breathtaking view of the ocean. The staff was gracious, friendly and made me feel at home. I loved Sinalei so much, that I extended my stay even though I had a room paid for at another resort. I highly recommend and cannot wait to go back.

After reading some of the reviews I was worried about the condition of this place, but really we had a lovely stay and everything was what we needed. I will say, that you do have to alter your expectations for what you are paying. Our four night stay was a fortnight of my salary which did make the bank account cry. And I think when paying that much you expect absolute perfection. However, people often forget you're on an island where everything needs to be imported and that takes time and money. So do not compare it to any accommodation in NZ or AU that costs $500 a night, it will probably not match those level of expectations. However, we stayed for 3 nights initially at a 3 star resort prior to our stay here, and the quality difference is huuuge. It definitely a giant step up. the food was soo much better here, no broken windows, AC with temp control etc. Beach was beautiful, snorkeling was fun, staff were so lovely. Pool was unfortunately getting repaired which was a massive shame because it looked lovely, but the beach is so close its not the end of the world. My one improvement would be wifi. I know its harder on the island, but our first place had free wifi and so then coming to a place with not enough wifi extenders for everyone, and having to pay crazy amounts if you were lucky to get one was a bit of a shame.

Fantastic friendly staff …. The resort had a really nice feel 😁

The place has seen better days, it’s quite run down and not worth the premium price tag. Pictures online of the facilities are deceiving.
