Sinalei Reef Resort & Spa

We chose this property for 2 reasons: the location / high standard of comparable amenities, and that children under 12 are not permitted. This made our stay very relaxed and enjoyable. The staff were attentive, knowledgeable, and always welcoming - in particular Nelson, Tina and Napa.

Amazing location, beautiful gardens, crystal clear water!

We were upgraded to the ocean view villa with a separate bedroom after Hotels.com made a booking mistake. This is an outstanding resort where you meet the local people, on a quiet and sunny side of the island. Wonderful food, lovely beach and swimming pool. Excellent choice for adults, very relaxed atmosphere in the lush gardens. Turtles swim in the bay of the resort, so you can meet wildlife in their natural habitat.

i was really disappointed with a pizza i ordered once lunch - probably the worst pizza i've had ever - the base was more bread like than pizza based - what looked like a garnish for the pizza in the centre of the pizza looked more like the size of a mini salad and the topping was lacking and pizza burnt - i ate it anyway coz i was so hungry and i didn't want to offend

Food is great (sometimes) - tends to be mercurial. Staff is very very friendly, helpful. The property is amazing! gorgeous, well-groomed. Be sure to get ocean-front view... INCREDIBLE. Does take 45mins-1 hr to drive to location. But it is worth the drive as its location is closer to Trench ((must-do)) and many waterfalls for a swim. Lovely.

Awesome

very elegant and upmarket design and excellent condition

Sinalei Reef Resort, after only one afternoon completely exceeded all expectations, the tranquility and beauty of the hotel, fales, gardens and of course the beach and ocean. “Don’t go in November” everyone said, “it rains all the time and is too hot” they said. Whether we were just lucky I don’t know but it was gorgeous weather and by the end of the week there had been one decent tropical rain storm not much wind and a bit of lightening and booming thunder one night which added to the atmosphere. One of my 2 companions noted that the gardens were so much more lush and healthy obviously because of the daily, but sparse showers. The resort is so stunning! and the staff in way were courteous, kind, warm and genuine (clearly the explanation that it is part of their culture to be so, is true!). I can’t stress more how wonderful I have found Samoa and Sinalei in particular. The resort was an easy shuttle from the airport and two of us had a couple of days at Tanoa in Apia, so were picked up by one of their lovely new and airconditioned transit vans there. We had an ocean view villa at Sinalei as there we were three singles giving us more than enough space, the air conditioners and ceiling fans and fridge were all super quiet. Our room was immaculately clean and with beautiful décor with a lovely view of the sea, short stroll to all resort amenities. Shout out to the lovely spa rooms right over the water. Also shout out to the chef and staff, The meals were all fabulous.

We had a wonderful time at Sinalei Reef Resort & Spa. The staff are lovely and nothing is too much trouble. The resort is set in beautiful grounds which are kept immaculate. We would definitely stay here again absolutely loved it!

Relaxing 5 day stay. Staff were uniformly friendly and responsive. No one is in a hurry here and accepting that will enhance your holiday. My room was great; I had no problems with bugs or pests. Restaurant had a varied menu but it was a bit hit and miss on execution. Check your receipts when you sign them for drinks/meals. I had 3 incidents of double billing. All quickly and pleasantly resolved when brought to attention but makes one wonder. Nice stretch of sandy beach but water is shallow especially at low tide. A deep spot at the end of the pier makes for a more satisfying dip.
