I stayed With Talo’s family for 5 days and had unforgettable memories. They treated me like a part of the family and helped me out a lot. I experienced local life (like Squeezing coconuts, Samoan umu etc..) which I wouldn’t experience if I stayed in hotel. I’m already planning to come back again. Definitely I recommend this place for everyone.
