We had a wonderful stay and really enjoyed the accommodation. The place was comfortable, welcoming and had everything we needed during our time in Samoa. We had such a great experience and would definitely book again on our next trip. Thank you for having us!

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay! Beautiful home with all the necessities we needed, from the air conditioning to the well-equipped kitchen and appliances.Great location, close to shops and Taumeasina Island Resort. Communication with the host was also excellent, especially when we needed the Wi-Fi password. We were provided with clear and helpful details for both check-in and check-out.We LOVED our stay and would 100% come back and book Kukis Retreat again! Highly recommend!

Overall stay was good and communication with Maria was really great. It really helped that the home had everything we needed especially the ability to do our laundry, cook our own food & the privacy to come & sit down at the dining table unwinding, talking with our kids about the days events. Home away from home :)

A great place to stay in, communication with the host was very poor. The wifi password was not given and we had to purchase own data.Overall it was good

Had you contacted us, we would have been more than happy to help immediately. We appreciate your feedback and will review our check-in information to make sure it’s even clearer for future guests. Thank you again, and we wish you all the best.

Staying at Kukis retreat during our holiday made all the difference for us. Everything was comfortable and it was perfect for our 18 month old with the wifi and smart tv to watch movies. We were so happy to find a holiday home that had everything we needed - a washing machine, aircon in every room, fast wifi and even an air fryer. Convenient as only 10 minutes from town. Will definitely book with them again if we go back to Samoa.

Excellent Wifi connection and communication with host. Very clean and had all I needed to cater to my little family. I would highly recommend. Thank you Maria

Home was well air conditioned, safe, secure, clean & tidy premises, beds are comfy, good working electrical appliances. Ree was an lovely host with great & prompt communication, maitenance guy Sapati was amazing & professional. Home was ideal for our family of 4 & close to amenities & Apia. Roosters from the neighbors were annoying as they start crowing from 3am, neighbors dogs kept coming in through a gap at the back, house was hard to find due to very poor signange on the main road. All in all its a great place to stay & I'll definately book again.

Our stay at Kuki’s Retreat was absolutely amazing. From start to finish, everything exceeded our expectations. The rooms were comfortable and well-equipped, with air conditioning in all rooms as well as the living room🥰both inside and outside of the property was in excellent condition, which made a huge difference and added to our comfort. The facilities were spotless and perfectly set up, making our stay truly relaxing.The host was outstanding always friendly, responsive, and quick to answer any questions we had. You can really tell a lot of care has gone into creating such a welcoming and enjoyable space. We loved every moment of our stay and would highly recommend Kuki’s Retreat to anyone looking for a beautiful, stress-free getaway. This truly was our home away from home thank again to our host Maria who really did look after us blessings and a Happy New Years.

I found Kuki clean and tidy with all the necessary things needed for a home away from home. Great to have two showers and having aircon in each room and living area.The location was close but the turn off could be clearer on the main road as i got a bit lost looking for it. Thanks so much for this lovely stay and i recommend that a hand book would be useful in giving clear instruct6ions around what is required on checking out. I had expected wifi but I should have ckecked this out first.Anyhoo thanks Maria for the stay and would book again.

Thank you for your kind words. In the check-in instructions there was an unlimited WiFi Password available for you. And thanks to your feedback, we will now organize a road sign to help future customers find the location. Fa’afetai

You will need a car to travel around and for your own convenience. From my point of view the property was secure. One night there was a power cut. I contacted the host to let them know. I got an immediate response letting me know that the power was out everywhere. The host sent one of their employees over with a solar-powered light, which was very thoughtful and helpful. All in all I enjoyed my stay.

The place was perfect for my family. Had everything we needed. Plenty of parking and space. Perfect that there was a washing machine to do last minute washing before flying back home. We had stayed there for the first 3 nights of our 2 week holiday, then ended up booking there again for our last night before flying home. Perfect for those who are coming from Savai'i. Close to shops eg Sula and Scoops as well as not far from Apia town. Only recommendation would be to have more signage on how to get there because we spent nearly over an hour trying to find the place, made more difficult because it was at night time. Otherwise everything else was absolutely perfect. Would definitely book again next time we go over. Thank you very much.
