    Very minor preference, not sure if an iron could be included in the room, I didn't ask as well as I was pretty busy running all around town.

    Staff were great, always greeted with a smile and very helpful, neat location. I would definitely comeback to stay there if I came back to Samoa, its private, quite and has a relaxing "homey" vibe to it.

    I had an incredible stay at EHA Accommodation — a true hidden gem nestled among surrounding tropical plants that create private atmosphere. The location is perfect, just a short drive to the luxurious Taumeasina Resort, and behind the property, there’s a lovely private beach where I enjoyed refreshing morning dips with stunning views. The convenience of being close to great dining options like Matautu and other restaurants in Apia made my stay even more enjoyable. Plus, having a supermarket right next door was a huge plus, making it easy to pick up essentials whenever needed. The accommodation itself was cozy, and well-maintained, providing for seeking a quiet, picturesque spot with easy access to nearby attractions and amenities. Truly an idealy place to stay!

    I wish there was a restaurant but there supermarket next door. We enjoyed our short stay. Property is in prime location and very close to the Apia town which we found very handy. Clean and tidy self contained unit, basic amenities but had what we needed for our short stay. People were the highlight, staff were very friendly and helpful.

    It’s close to a main rd so lots of traffic noise, for what we paid I expected more; could’ve been much cleaner in the property and in their neighbouring property is pretty untidy and dirty. I felt like they did the best with the resources they had and were friendly but I definitely wouldn’t stay there again.

    Had it not rained it might’ve felt better. There were some inconsistencies which made it not all bad. The staff were pleasant, the towels were fresh and clean and seemed new, the water was hot, the second day we got the wifi which was great, they did a bag of laundry for us for at a reasonable price. Air con worked well.

    "I recently stayed at EHA accommodation, and I had a fantastic experience! The location is incredibly convenient, being close to town, which made it easy to explore local shops and restaurants. The highlight for me was the beautiful garden; it offered a peaceful retreat and a lovely place to relax. The overall ambiance was welcoming, and the staff were friendly and helpful. I would definitely recommend EHA for anyone looking for a comfortable stay with great access to the heart of the city!"

    Staff clearly didn’t expect us even though we’d had communications via booking. There weren’t any utensils. Nor were there amenities or free toiletries (unless you call an old bar of pre-used soap free toiletries). The high speed internet had to be topped up and started working on day two. It also stopped working that same day and didn’t come on until day 4 late at night. The minibar is a piece of paper with jacked up prices for things you can order via your roaming Internet. The tv is there and works, it’s just not hooked up to anything. Our poc didn’t respond to complaints until the very last night. Meh

    The bed was nice. The aircon worked well. As did the ceiling fan. It’s spacious enough for two or three people.

    There was nothing that I didn't like about Eteline. It's clean & had all the amenities, e.g., hot water for showers when needed, kettle, microwave & fridge, I needed. In addition, my host, Abigail, was fantastic & most helpful during my stay.

    The location was ideal; it's a 3-minute walk to Apia Park & a 5-minute walk to Taumeasina Island Resort or the Taumeasina Hidden Gem. It's also a 15-20 minutes' walk to Apia. Free Wi-Fi & the sea breeze ensured I barely used the air con.

    enjoyed my stay, don't really have anything I didn't like but just a little bit of feedback: a cafe / restaurant on site would have been good, save us having to go offsite for meals but we did end up going to Paddles Restaurant which was a short drive away.

    - hospitality was great. Staff very helpful - free wifi. could connect my phone using Chromecast to the tv too which was nice. - location was the best, close to everything. I booked my stay to visit Apia park stadium and watch the weekend sport. Apia park stadium just up the road. - aircon - met my expectations for the price I paid. Fairly priced

    I did need to use my phone to call the host who's number is an international number however this was expected as it was mentioned in the listing.

    Location is great. Its a short drive to the town, shops and the Apia park stadium. Taumeasina resort just a minute away. Small private beach at the back was very handy for nightly quick dips before bed. Staff were excellent - very friendly and happy to help me whenever I needed. The room was spacious and had everything to cover my basic needs. The accommodation was as pictured. Great little spot for an affordable price - I really enjoyed my time and would stay again. Thank you EHA team
