Situated on a beautiful beach. The property is 5 star based on Savaii ‘norm’ rating I’d imagine - however as a traveler it needs some maintenance, especially bathroom- quite dirty, as was our bedding. Staff really lovely , except for the main lady who wasn’t accommodating. Sunday BBQ very overpriced for what it was - but beautiful singing from band. I think it’s just a bit expensive for what it is. Nonetheless beautiful spot.

From Faleolo Airport its a 10min 20Tala taxi to the ferry. 12Tala for a one hour crossing then a 45min shuttle @ 200Tala return trip for 2 adults. The resort location is worth the effort. Sheltered from the SE trade winds its in a beautiful bay with a lovely lagoon and a sandy beach. The lagoon is crystal clear with great snorkeling. We saw 2 turtles. The fales are large and tastefully appointed. Only 10 in total makes for a quiet and intimate stay. The only negative with the fales are that the bathrooms are a little dated by comparison to the living sleeping area. The beachfront fales are better located but were booked out so our set back fale was still cool with a glimpse of the lagoon. The resturaunt and bar area is just fine. Only 10 couples tops so plenty of room. We were often the only ones around. Complimentry Breakfast is basic but plentiful. Weekbix cornflakes fresh bread with spreads. Papaya coconut banana orange slices lemonade tea or coffee. They make toast on request. We took a box of real muesli to uplift the cereal offering.But there is a cooked breakfast that differs each day. Omelette french toast crepes pancakes scrambled eggs. Dinner is fine. Wine expensive @ 25tala glass. beer cheap @ 7Tala. The staff, run by Seti are awesome. Personalised friendly and caring. The swimming pool is OK, small with chlorine smell.We swam in the lagoon, swim able at low tide.Kayaks and SUPs are worn & average. Beach loungers need updating. But a top spot for a relaxing week

At Le Lagoto fales are set amongst the lush tropical garden that meanders along the shoreline. The water in the bay is clear and areas of coral provide good snorkelling at your doorstep. Use of the kayaks is free should you want to venture further. This is the place to go if your ideal holiday involves relaxing, reading, swimming and reconnecting with family or partner. Meals are generally based on local produce. Staff are friendly and helpful. The poolside bar or restaurant provide perfect spots to watch the sun set as you enjoy a drink. The resort is immaculately kept. Hire a car and travel around the island to some see some of Savaiis natural sights. The Blow holes, lava fields and Vailoa waterfall are well worth a visit. We would highly recommend Le Legoto as a place to go for a relaxing holiday.

Samoan Hospitality with a touch of luxury
Loved our stay here for a few nights to relax as we travelled across Savaii. The resort is on a beautiful beach with some stunning swimming and snorkeling. Pool was smaller but still really nice to chill out in. Rooms were really spacious and comfy, lots of space to spread out with a full ensuite - definitely one of the better rooms in Manase, if not the island. Staff were really lovely and always tried to help our, especially the bar and restaurant staff. If we're back on the island we will definitely pop in.

Best Wedding Anniversary location
Absolutely amazing holiday. Reo and I decided to come to Samoa for our 22nd wedding anniversary. So glad we did, Le Lagoto Resort is in the best location, Bungalows are comfy, modern with a touch of the traditional Samoan Fale feel. Only steps away from the Pristine Waters on the white sandy beach. Swimming and snorkling everyday. Kayaking and Diving is also available here. The food was very tasty and delicious but the best part of our holiday was meeting Seti, Faaiuga and the beautiful staff members not only are they very proficient at their tasks but they are respectful kind and caring towards their guests. Thank you all for greeting us everyday with those big Samoan smiles. Thank you Seuga for the extra care you gave us. You made us feel like family. I highly reccomend this resort for its location, style, features, food, attractions and most of all its Staff. Thank you all from Reo and Teresa. (Melbourne)

Pleasant quiet hotel
We loved the hotel. The staff were delightful and it was wonderful sitting on the veranda watching the sun sets. What we did not like was the large amount of rubbish in the sea. Much of it had been there for some time as it was old and twisted into the coral so it could not just be blamed on the recent cyclone. It let the hotel down. The hotel needs to employ some locals to clear it out. It would not be difficult as much of it is old blankets, clothing etc rather than litter. The snorkelling otherwise was great. Also the hotel relies on the dive shop across the road to provide guests with snorkelling equipment but the shop was closed for the owners holidays. Guests had to rent equipment from the hotel next door. The hotel needs to have its own equipment. these are small issues and we enjoyed our stay very much.

Lovely small resort right on the beach.
The fales are very spacious and comfortable. There is a lovely pool and great snorkelling right out the front of the resort. Food average. They advertise a Spa but there is not one available. There is a sweet girl for massage but do not think she has been trained and really unaware of what a spa client would expect. I would recommend this resort for a relaxing break in the sun.

We stayed in April 2017, 2 adults and 4 children in 2 stunning lagoon front fales. Le Lagoto was everything we hoped for! A calm and safe beach that our children could confidently roam, excellent snorkeling just meters front our door, that the kids could enjoy too. Lovely pool and perfectly manicured gardens to bring the beauty of Samoa alive. Stunning sunsets, amazing service, all staff had an eye for detail. We will definitely be back next year!

The location is fantastic, with only 10 bungalows the staff get to know you. They are knowledgeable on spots to visit and are more than willing to help. The dinner menu changes daily to ensure you don't get sick of eating the same meal. The lagoon is great for swimming, snorkeling, kayaking or just paddling your feet if you prefer. The room was clean and spacious. The deck with loungers is a nice way to spend an afternoon relaxing while looking out across the water. Try out the pizza shop across the road.

LE LEGATO RESORT
My husband and I spent our edding Anniversary here at this resort. The room was a beach bungalow which was very nice but when it said beach bungalow I thought it would be on a white sandy beach not up on ground level overlooking the sea. We ate in the restaurant which was clean and nice staff but our food was okay but not amazing. Many people we talked to went along the beach to the next resort to eat. Swimming infront of the resort was a highlight although there was a pool but at the time we were there a lot of children were in the pool and it wasn't very big so I didn't stay in long. I night was probably not enough time realy to guage the overall resort but it had one of the nicest beaches in front of it and that is exactly why we booked it.
