Lava Hotel Apia

10/10 Excellent
"I chose this hotel for a business trip. It was very clean and well-air-conditioned. I appreciated that the pool was open 24 hours a day, allowing for flexible use. All the staff members were friendly, and the breakfast was excellent. I would love to stay here again on a future trip."

8/10 Good
"This was our second stay in the past ten years. We stayed here as it was conveniently near where my husband was working. It is also close to town, restaurants, attractions and is on the main road that takes you over the island to the beautiful beaches on the West Coast. There is plenty of parking. Our room was clean and I enjoyed the private outside shower. The gardens were a little unkempt although some maintenance occurred a few days after we arrived. Disappointingly, while the pool itself was always clean, the five sun loungers chairs were all stuffed together in a corner of the pool area half buried in the bushes so that there was little sun on them by mid afternoon. This, along with the rusty bar stools and tables, made for an uninviting area within which to relax. There is an adequate dining and bar area. The food was basic with the dinner menu being the same as the lunch menu, except for BBQ and Fiafia nights when the venue and evenings became more festive. A fine place to stay if you are on a budget"

"Le Vasa is a phenomenally beautiful property. The pictures on expedia do not do this property justice. We stayed in room 1 which was fantastic! Staff was amazing. Food was good, Drinks were only OK. Didn't seem like there was any alcohol in the drinks we bought. They ran about $30Tala which is on the higher end for Samoa but unfortunately they were watered down. If my wife can drink 2 and not feel anything there's something not right! LOL"

"We loved our stay right on the sand at the water’s edge. Miti Mananoa is tucked between two more expensive resorts. We thought we had very good value for money and it was good to have a choice of restaurants both at Miti and at the neighbouring resorts. Breakfast was quite limited but the accommodation made up for it."
