TANOA TUSITALA HOTEL, APIA
Our Resort Report
OUR Thoughts on the Tanoa Tusitala Hotel, Beach Road, Sogi, Apia, Upolu, Samoa
The extensive up-grade to 4.5 Star standard has ensured the Tanoa Tusitala continues to be a very good option for a stay in Samoa’s capital city, Apia. The guest rooms are of a high standard and the new restaurants, conference centre and lobby with their authentic Samoan Fale construction are very pleasant. The Tanoa Tusitala is often thought of as a “business hotel” and it certainly caters well for business people, but it is equally good for holidays or a stopover of a few days in Apia.
The hotel swimming pool is a pleasant place for relaxation and there is a small separate children’s pool and a kids’ play area. The pleasant Tamarind Restaurant is where breakfast is served each day and The Deck & Bar is the venue for lunch and dinners. The Poolside Bar serves poolside snacks, light meals and a wide variety of drinks. The hotel has 24-hour dining service which includes room service.
Tanoa Tusitala Hotel is located an easy walk away from a couple of very good Apia City restaurants and it’s a pleasant stroll from the hotel to the Apia City Markets. The hotel has a modest Fitness Centre but for those seeking a complete gym service, a private, modern gym has been established handy to the hotel and temporary membership can be organised for this gym. There is Wifi access in all guest rooms.
Accommodation rates include full buffet breakfast for all guests (adults and children).
