The best place we have stayed in, in Samoa. Beautiful home and grounds. Plenty of room for a big group. House was clean and had everything that you need, like you were in your own home. Tim was helpful and went out of his way to make our trip memorable. Thank you for having us, will definitely look to stay here again.

The home was spacious and accommodating for our large family. The front living area + patio was a great gathering space at the end of the day. Friendly neighbors stopped by with fruit and food, making our stay even more enjoyable.

We had the opportunity to stay at both of Tim’s properties while in Samoa. Both houses were above and beyond our expectations. The main house is roomy and could fit much more than our family of 5. The balcony is to die for. The property is beautifully manicured and couldn’t be any more stunning. Tim is an absolute pleasure to work with and made us feel right at home. The property will be our first choice if we are looking for a place to stay in Samoa again.

It’s hard to find a place big enough to House 10 adults. There were beds for only 9 so one had to sleep on the floor and the downstairs beds were small. It’s a very nice home and we adjusted well and had a great time. We loved sitting out on the large balcony in the cool of the evening a gazing at the glorious stars. We especially enjoyed the fresh fruit from the plantation tha John brought us.

Amazing Property- Perfect for Large Family
Amazing Property- Perfect for Large Family
Our large family group just came home from staying at this amazing property in Samoa. It is just minutes from downtown Apia and is nestled in the hills just above making it about 10 degrees cooler than staying in town. It was clean, well appointed and Tim and Maria are the most enchanting hosts. We felt so pampered with daily visits to check up on us, deliver fresh produce from their garden and a wonderful woman who tidied up for us. It was magical! We watched the glorious sunrise and sunset on the balcony- where we also did daily Yoga ( they even had mats for us!). We will definitely return again and cannot recommend this place high enough!
