5 of 5 stars Reviewed 13 May 2013

I give this 5 stars just for the experience and charm of the place. The staff were wonderful - new managers have made a difference. The staff placed 16 lanterns around a grove by the beach so we could eat dinner in a wonderful idyllic setting. It was just what we had hoped for. The fale was clean, with a... More

My partner and I spent a month in Samoa and were looking forward to our stay at Virgin cove. We specifically went out of our way to go there and planned a three night stay. On arrival we were charmed and our hut and location was fantastic. However this changed dramatically. I went to have a shower in the ‘outdoor’... More

And it was an amazing experience. The lady who served us was lovely. Even though the menu was small (two choices) it was delicious and the beer was cold! It was also a fabulous place to swim. The Beach Fales looked basic but comfortable and what an amazing view over the water and very secluded. You have to pay a... More

Beautiful beach, one of the best, large clean fales, fresh linen every day, bed mozzie net etc all good, shady trees around fales and beach, lockable cupboard, table and chairs. Each Fale isolated from the others so great for privacy, excellent walks jungle and beach. Staff were friendly and helpful. Food excellent when Alex cooked. A bit more expensive than... More

After reading some of the reviews about peoples bad experience I'm wary of putting a good review on but we thought this was true paradise. My husband & I went with another couple so perhaps it's not right for females travelling alone but it was perfect for us. We found Shane & the ladies working there really lovely & we... More

We are an older couple more into adventure and local culture than luxury. Virgin Cove was so beautiful, relaxing, clean, and eco friendly. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in a Beach Fale right amongst trees on the waters edge. The view of water lapping at our door in the morning was spectacular! Some of the sand at the waters edge...

I too was reluctant to risk staying here given the very mixed reviews. After a relaxing week in fale accommodation on Savai'i, Virgin Cove was our first stop on Upolu. It was amazing!!! We wished we have booked for more than the two nights we thought we'd 'chance'. After checking in , we were led to our beachfront bungalow set... More
