The wooden bungalows at this boutique beachside resort are the plushest you’ll find on the island; they're wonderfully atmospheric with intricate Samoan-style interiors and blue-sea views. The restaurant (7.30am–9pm, mains ST20–70) is great some nights, uninspired the next, but it has an extensive kids' menu and good fiafia nights (Thursdays). It's open to nonguests.
