Paia Holidays from NZ$1,330

Good for short stays. Upgraded some amenities like bathroom cupboards but not kitchen ones. However it was just right for an overnight traveler

Staff were helpful when we checked in - said we could have a late check out - staff the next morning was rude and said we ddint have a late check out - tried to charge us - hung up on me, rude. Got woken up by the restaurant staff demanding us to sign for a bill at 11:30 that wasnt for us. Best buffet breakfast out of all of the 5 resorts we stayed at - best beach to relax out of all resorts we stayed at - but i rank it a 4 due to the feeling of being in a city not and paying over $1000nzd for a quality nights sleep and being left like we were in a night club.

It is a great place to spend your vacation. We would stay here again if we come to Samoa. However, one recommended improvement is to add mosquitos repellent devices to the rooms and restaurant

Beautiful experience

Really beautiful setting. Party of 5 adults in ocean and adult-only villas. Cockroach infestation in the adult-only villas and chatting to our neighbours there, they had the same problem. It was a major issue as the fumigation remedy caused an asthma attack and there was no offer to remove belongs before the fumigation or to move rooms. The staff were a mixed bag. At the beginning of our stay they were rude, hostile and treated you like you were a major inconvenience. When the owner was present at the end of our stay, they were much more efficient and polite. The food was expensive as you’d expect but the quality was poor and there were no light meal options at dinner. Breakfast was fine but still wasn’t out 45min after it was meant to be available and getting huffs and death stares from the staff wasn’t worth the hassle of asking how much longer the wait would be. The pool bar wasn’t open at all over our 8 day stay and there was no explanation why. Overall it’s a beautiful setting and the owners investment into it shows. It’s a shame that the staff let them down.
