8/10 Good

Peaceful with wonderful sea and good local entertainment.
Hala, 10-night trip

10/10 Excellent

Loved that we could support 100% local staying here and all the staff were friendly and attentive. It was also so quiet even though there were many people staying! Felt like we were staying in a wee village vs a hotel resort which was perfect for us. Good food, clean newsish rooms (including the best hotel bed and pillow I've ever had) and great beach access for flicking between the pool and the ocean!
Vicki-Leigh, 5-night trip

10/10 Excellent

Great location. Great staff and huge rooms all with their own ensuites. Definitely recommend to anyone who wants to see the quieter and more natural side of Upolu.

10/10 Excellent

Our stay at Return To Paradise was amazing. The resort was full but never felt busy or crowded. It was truely like staying in our own private paradise. I think my daughter has a crush on everyone in the Saturday cultural performance. They are all so talented!!
Hannah, 5-night trip

8/10 Good

Our holiday in paradise was truly unforgettable, with the staff being incredibly friendly and the day tours exceeding our expectations. However, there was one minor issue - the shower in our room needed better temperature and pressure control.
Kathryn Jane, 6-night trip

Proud locally owned. Nice mid sized resort with great snorkeling on the beach.
Heleen suzan, 7-night trip

10/10 Excellent

Great Resort to stay at. Relaxing & peaceful. Great view & beautiful beach with crystal clear water. Definitely the best side of the island to stay on for beaches. Staff very friendly & helpful.

Chavah, 2-night trip

Eugene N Ofu, 2-night trip

8/10 Good

The staff was very friendly, welcoming and helpful. Our party of five loved our dinners, although the breakfast on the first day was disappointing as we were late getting there and the options were limited. Beautiful white sandy beach, perfect for sun bathing. My only criticism was the couch seating on my deck which was not inviting as covered in black spots, maybe mould. We all really enjoyed our two day stay.
Lorraine, 2-night trip

8/10 Good

The beach and clear water was excellent. All the staff were so helpful, friendly and attentive. The room layout was great and very spacious. The dinning experience was very limited. Two restaurants to choose from and the menus were very similar. We would have liked more variety of food.
Jo, 9-night trip

Everything was spectacular love it can’t wait to come back again. Thank you
