Just a hop, skip and jump away from the waterfront and a short stroll from colourful downtown Apia, the location is ideal from which to explore the delights of Samoa. With buffet breakfast included and so many restaurants within walking distance – your hardest decision of the day may be where to dine. Tanoa is a popular choice for the business traveller as it’s so close to the central business district. We also recommend it as a good combo option if your itinerary involves heading to the outer island of Savai’i. That way you can experience both the hustle and bustle of city life as well as get that beach fix. If you want to venture further afield to explore we suggest taking a short five minute taxi ride to Paolo Deep to enjoy fabulous snorkelling. The Wednesday night Fiafia (local feast and cultural show) is also worth sampling.
