Testimonials:

“The resort was perfect for what our families were after (not hundreds of Westerners jumping into a swimming pool drinking grog all day), lovely and quiet and absolutely picture perfect!! Lots of culture if you cared to venture out and explore ... which we did lots of!!”

-Debbie McPherson January 2008

“Sa'Moana Resort was perfect for our family holiday needs (kids aged 9 and 6). I took an early morning surf trip every couple of days and was usually back at the resort by mid-late morning to hang out with the family for the rest of the day. In a two week trip I took approximately seven surf trips which was a bonus on my family holiday. We met another family from Sydney which was perfect for everyone. This meant I had a mate to go surfing with and then, on our return from surfing, we would take over child minding which was very easy as we would grab a couple of kayaks and our snorkelling gear and paddle down the lagoon to the little beaches and then snorkel around for hours with the kids, who were fascinated by the variety of fish and coral. The girls then relaxed, read and chatted whilst sipping a nice Kiwi sauvignon blanc by the pool. On other days we would take one of the Sa'Moana sightseeing tours and check out all the natural attractions of Samoa. The kids loved the Sliding Rocks tour (natural water slide).  All up, we found Samoa to be just what the family needed ... a total escape from all the mod cons of home to a natural tropical paradise where shoes were rarely worn. The old saying 'The simple things in life are often the best' comes to mind."
