We loved our fale with traditional collapsible panels rather than ugly tarp. The fale was right on the beach, simply stunning! Our host was lovely and helpful. A great place to stay with awesome snorkeling.

Our host greeted us upon arrival and took us to our freshly made up fale. The bed was spacious and I was amazed how warm it was, as the night we stayed it was bucketing down. We can't get over how delicious the food for dinnner and breakfast was. This was our favourite place to stay and we can't wait to come back.

Owner/staff included visitors in a family celebration; they were so kind and generous. The beach setting is absolute paradise and it is central to so many of the sights. Also a small shop for snacks a 2-min walk away.

Beautifully situated fales on the beach to enjoy a slice of paradise. Well presented fales. Staff really tried to make stay enjoyable. What let property down was the condition of the shared shower/toilet facilities. Enjoyed a lovely home cooked breakfast and could pay for dinner albeit a bit pricey.

Faofao fales were beautiful and right on the beach! Our included breakfast was delicious and the supper buffet always impressed. The staff were lovely and we particularly enjoyed the show on Saturday night. A true authentic and welcoming experience staying at a family run business. Highly recommend!

Spent 4 peaceful and relaxing nights in a fale, nice to sleep right on the beach, hearing nothing but the sea. Breakfast included (pancakes, toast, fruit, sausages) was plentiful and tasty, filled us up for the day. The fale was comfortable and just about big enough for 2 people and our luggage. Mosquito net provided was a little hole-y but it did the job. Excellent snorkeling out on the reef which is easily accessible. Dinner and drinks at the bar were great, with friendly service. Facilities were exactly as described, basic but suitable.

We absolutely LOVED our stay at Faofao Beach fales! We stayed in a fale on the beach and it was such an incredible experience that I would highly recommend. The beach is blissful and quiet (other than the sound of the crashing waves) and the road behind was not busy. We never got bored of the view! Breakfast and dinner was provided daily and the options were healthy and included fish every day which I loved! Served buffet style so we were well fed! The toilet and showers are basic but it was wonderful to have an outdoor shower looking up at the sky! No WiFi so it was nice to be "off grid" for a few days. Great location for visiting waterfalls, the ocean trench and the national park. Overall we had an amazing time and was sad to leave! Thank you so much to the wonderful family at Faofao!

It's a great example of a family run Samoan beach front falle, the family who own it and the wider village are super friendly, the location is stunning, palm trees over quiet sandy beaches. Shared toilet facilities, the food is very good, bring talla as there is no electronic payment and they have a lovely bar over the beach, perfect for a few beers and watching the sun go down.
