Lock in a great price for The Samoan Outrigger Hotel – rated 8.3 by recent guests!

to get started.

It was a very good place to stay. You can take a bus just outside if you want to go to the city centre. The pool and the staff was amazing.

The staff were very friendly and respectful. Housekeeping were always on point with room cleaning and breakfast. The front desk provided information and scenery of places that should be visited. Above that they were easy to carry conversations with.

Andy, United States of America

Everything was great at this place except for the Fale that I stayed out. This was not a dormitory room as stated on Booking.com. It was an outdoor camping style with no fans and so many mosquitos. I hated staying there and paid over $30 USD for a night. I wanted to change to a proper room, but it costs over $65 USD for a fan room and close to $85 USD for an aircon room. That was not worth it. I only hope that the Fale will have a fan, but there are so many places within Apia that you can get for half the price.

The only thing that was a bit of a down fall on our stay were the showers. The water was very limited and it was hard to have a shower. Our room fan wasn’t working properly on the first night which made it hard to sleep. Other than that it was good.
Nice clean rooms, bathrooms and dinning rooms. The service was really good. Good experience.

I wish we could’ve had guests stay over at no extra cost, also we were under the impression the Fale we booked was ours but unfortunately they were shared dormitories. Otherwise beautiful staff, beautiful place, beautiful hospitality!!!
Loved the property, so neat and tidy. Workers always keeping on top of grounds daily.

We didn't realise there was no restaurant attached, so were a bit stuck for food because we arrived on a Sunday when all the shops are closed.
This hotel is fairly close to Apia, only a short taxi ride away. The staff were friendly & helpful.

A little far out of town if you don’t have transport. A bit hot in our room but with a couple of fans it didn’t take too much away from a good stay.
A really nice relaxed small hotel with pretty gardens and the pool was most welcome in the Samoan sun.

- in the facility page says internet is available in all areas but they don’t mention you must pay for it, island generally doesn’t have internet at all which is annoying because if you need to access to change your booking or plan next destination you can’t do that! - please do the proper research once you are booking the all day tour, I was lazy and took it from the hotel and had to pay extra for all entry fees and no lunch was included like other companies do
- staff friendly and helpful

“Did not feel the money paid met expectations, room fine enough - ultimately service was poor.”

Arrived at breakfast at 9:15am and asked for some breakfast, was made to feel that breakfast was to be a chore to do for myself and partner. Received x2 small pancakes to share, small amount of scrambled eggs each and some minimal basic fruit, the other couple that arrived 10min after us received x4 pancakes each, twice the amount of scrambled eggs and a lot more fruit on their plate. It didn't feel we were welcome at the breakfast table, except for one woman who was genuiely apologetic on our departure from the eating area.
Check in staff was very good, cheerful and accomodating. The room was clean. The location is perfectly situated for an easy walk to multiple food options.
