The experience was amazing. It was home away from home..enjoyed the privacy and the welcoming likes of the staff and guests❤❤❤ From the time of check in til the time of check out..we were greatly and highly accomodated!
We flew to Pago Pago to visit the National Park. There are only a handful of hotels to choose from. We selected Tradewinds Hotel and were very happy with our choice. There are only 2 flights per week from Honolulu and so we knew we would want amenities at our hotel. The restaurant serves free continental breakfast to in-house guests. It is adequate, but nothing special. They do have a menu you can also order from. We ate breakfast, lunch and dinner there over our visit. The food is excellent! There is also a fitness room and an outdoor pool. A gift shop is available for supplies and souvenirs. The staff was very courteous and professional. The room was very clean as was the hotel. We planned to rent a car at the hotel, but none were available. We hired a taxi to tour the island and visit the National Park. We were charged $20 per hour and he (Tommy) was very helpful and knowledgeable. This hotel is about 20 minutes from the actual town of Pago Pago. So, you can't really walk to shops etc. However, the town of Pago Pago doesn't have a lot going on either. But the location may be a deciding factor for some. However, we are glad we stayed there and unless you want to be by the beach, I can highly recommend Tradewinds.…
Enjoyed our stay here with comfortable beds and great stay. Great service from front desk to cleaners. The restaurant have a great steak night on Tuesdays Great pool area to relax. Close to Cost U Less and Maliu Mai beach
First of all, there are not a lot of options on the island and this was one of the better choices. Starting with the positives - the staff were super friendly and helpful and overall great to deal with. The hotel is pretty basic and the rooms are a decent size, though a bit dated and dark. We only ate breakfast at the restaurant - they had a very minimal "continental" that was included in the rate - so one day we did order breakfast off the menu and it was pretty greasy - we decided to eat at A&E down the street after that. The pool area was nice, though it was closed for a rather rowdy wedding for 2 days of our stay. The walls are pretty thin but thankfully I brought ear plugs! The cafe did have really nice pies, however, and worth a try! Location is pretty close to the airport and they do offer a free shuttle in case you don't have a car (though expensive, would recommend it if you are going to do any exploring!). The internet was quite spendy ($15/day), but US phones don't have any agreement with the Samoan companies so using your own device is even worse.…
We ate at the Equator Restaurant, and tried their sliders, a club sandwich, and the soup of the day. The chicken was inedible: full of gristle; the fries and soup were just OK. The white rice was also OK. Service was friendly. We sat in what is almost a room without light, until we opened the curtains. There is a small snack bar down the hall from the Equator, with a few sad-looking pastries and sandwiches.
Very comfortable accommodation. The Deluxe Suite has very comfortable king size bed. Only downside is having to pay for internet- I’m just spoiled by other hotels providing complimentary WiFi to guests.
Stayed here for 3 nights for a business trip. This hotel was recommended by a colleague who stays here quite often. It is close to the airport but in an odd location so I would highly suggest printing off directions before arriving as most cell phones don’t get service. The hotel itself has nice landscaping and seems fairly updated compared to many local buildings. There seems to be someone on security duty in the lobby at most times so I felt safe parking my rental car there as well as feeling safe as a solo traveler in my room. The room was a standard king and was adequate and clean. The air worked well and the room had a small fridge but no microwave. The bed was fairly comfy but the other furnishings such as the sofa seemed a bit worn. There was also a good amount of chipped paint and wood in the sink and bathroom areas. Upon entering the room I noticed a mildewy smell, which I suppose is common in such humid areas. I only ate the free breakfast one day - it consisted of some fruit spread out on a platter and assorted breads to toast and use either butter or peanut butter as the spread. You can, of course, order a regular breakfast from the menu for regular prices. I did eat one dinner at the restaurant and it was pretty good. I would recommend eating at the Koko Bean Cafe in the shopping center a few miles away that has the Carl’s Jr. or the Paradise Pizza in the same area. If you are taking the late night flight out I recommend doing the 1/2 day check out option, check out at 6 pm and hitting a 7 pm movie at the local theater. If you rent your car from Avis at the airport you will pick it up and drop it off at a car dealership located on the way back to the airport from the theater so you can just drop it off and catch a ride back that will get you back to the airport in time for that flight. Overall, if you are doing business in that part of the island I would recommend staying here but if your business is closer to the downtown area you might try Sadie’s by the Sea.…
Stayed here a total of five nights. Staff are all wonderful and remembered me by name after second day. For the type of accommodations available on this island, I think it warrants an excellent rating. Room is pleasant, clean, great lighting, and roomy. Air in rooms works great as well as has ceiling fan. TV is lacking if u are planning to watch it. Close to airport but not in central part of town. Best to have car when staying here. Rental cars by day are $80 which seems to be going rate. WiFi is pricing but works well if u don’t want to do the sim cards thing and Verizon is pricing. Had massage, which is reasonable priced at $60 for hour. It was a good massage especially after doing the Mt ‘Avala Trail. Would stay here again.
My wife and I stayed for a week in August 2019 and would ordinarily give a very good rating. However, we were overcharged one full day on a car rental and although staff agreed there was a overcharge that would be refunded, it has been 9 days and no refund even though I have contacted them several times. They simply take no action and do not respond, so I have had to s3tart a dispute through the credit card company. My advice, rent a car somewhere else or stand at the counter until a credit is completed. The hotel Wi-Fi fee is way too high. Go to the Bluesky office and buy an access card from them for way less money and it is useable at the hotel. Good way too avoid the excessive hotel fee.
We enjoyed our brief vacation in American Samoa. The Tradewinds Hotel best attributes are its friendly staff ... everyone fm Security to Front Desk to Maid Service to Restaurant & Amenities to Maintenance were gracious and made us feel welcome. Everything worked and the AC was a welcome relief fm the humid weather. What made our stay more enjoyable was meeting a friend that I had been talking to by phone and email for over 2 years and finally meeting him, his wife, and church family.
