Sleeping by the beach was a pleasant experience, but unfortunately, there was a mix-up with our booking that we had made and paid for a week in advance. Despite corresponding online to confirm everything, we arrived to find that there was no room available for us. They were able to eventually accommodate us, first in one of the outdated rooms and then in a neighboring fale that was not traditional, but covered in bright blue plastic that ended up sticking to our faces instead of the usual coconut leaf walls.
The pictures posted by the property were also misleading as the food served did not match what was shown, and the fales were not as depicted. Despite these issues, sleeping on the beach itself was enjoyable. In the future, I would consider booking with a different provider.
