Satuiatua Beach Fales

Savai'i


Run by a family of women, this spotless place is loaded with simple and effective touches. Open fale have proper beds and are well maintained, while enclosed fale are more like large cottages; there are also a couple of ensuite units. The marvellous treehouse (with swings!) perched in a huge banyan tree is reason alone to stay, though the idyllic snorkelling and fantastic surfing get high marks too.

The restaurant (lunch ST20) serves good, hearty meals. It’s a good stop for lunch if you find yourself in these parts when the tummy rumbles.
