This hotel has been primarily used by local businssmen but is turning self into a resort. There are three types of room. the top range has hot water heated by solar power. The standard room has only cold water, but in this climate this is hardly a hardship. In the well tended garden are fales with just a double bed. You have to go through the garden for the shower and toilet. The staff are fantastically friendly and attentive and the swimming pool is basic but very functional. Kyak hire at 10 talle per day (£3) is great.

Samoan sojourn

We arrive in Samoa!
... for both of us including breakfast and dinner!!!! The fale's are in a village called Salenpaga and is an hours drive away from Apia going through the rainforest centre of the island with great views, waterfalls and sink holes. We're made very welcome by the family that run the fale's. This part of the island was wrecked by a tsuanmi about a year ago and they are still rebuilding. Two people were killed from this village, a german tourist and a 4 year old boy, who we got ...
Stilhed før storm !
... Den må kunne bruges ! - Så er det jo bare at løfte bagenden lidt og trække den under hjulet. Jeg finder donkraften - men hvor er spindlen, der skal skrue bilen op ? - Jeg splitter næsten bilen ad for at finde den eller noget der kan bruges. Var det her jeg skulle have været mere agtpågivende ? - da jeg lejede bilen? - Ja, det skulle jeg jo nok.! - Jeg sender en ikke alt for venlig tanke til min landsmand, som jeg lejede bilen af i Apia.
