Faofao fales on Saleapaga beach is run by Koroesta & her family. It has large tiled dining room/social eating place separate to the hut/bar with seaviews. This is the best location if you like a quieter beach with snorkeling straight out front better than 😉Paolo Deep. My friend saw a turtle so I hope it remains protected from plastic getting into water, as we all know this kills turtles.
It is also not too far from Lalomanu & some main attractions - particularly closer to To Sua Trench.
The Faofao fale experience is just like camping but well protected with mosquito net & although my ol'body couldn't do much more than 2 nights on a thin mattress with hard floor - you won't get a real Faa'a Samoan experience unless you experience local fale, right ON the beach.
Food is very good(local small buffet style) - I was able to eat fish every night. Breakfast included, dinner 35WST p.p but If you book directly, get better rates - find email on fbk.
Yes it's best to wear your flipflops in bathrooms, shower is cold tap up high but it's 27-29degrees out! Recognized it for what it is - true local style; your sleeping high above, but on a beach. Wake up to Sunrise!
Waves WILL sound loud in still of night- Bring earplugs if that bothers you. Tip: ask for fale furtherest from bar. Unfortunately the new fale is the closest
As in all of Upolu, roadside rubbish is terrible. Any family owned fale that makes an effort to pickup around their area will greatly improve their guests stay.
