This place saved our lives!!! We stayed at Talofa Inn B&B in Apia which unfortunately was NOT suitable for my young family. Talofa Inn was really restricted for young children. A friend from home, mentioned this place and it took us a bit of direction to find it tucked away in Vaitele! Coming from the airport, it's the right hand turn after Farmer Joe's/Burger Bills... or from Apia Town Centre, it's the next left turn after the Vailima Factory! We find the Office and its quiet. However, we are attracted to the large tennis court, trampoline and pool at lower ground. We walk into the Office and are greeted by Leiti. She gives a description of the accommodation for 4 adults and 4 children. Interestingly enough, the description of the accommodation sounds ideal - a double room and twin room. They offer bedding for our young children as well. We are then greeted by the owner, Lei, who had corresponded with our friend. They weren't expecting us as there was a communication breakdown, HOWEVER, they could offer us an apartment. We checked out of Talofa Inn in 5 minutes and relocated ourselves at Le-Ric Housing Motels and did NOT regret our decision to move at all!!! We fell in love with the owners who had four children of their own. This really felt like a home away from home. As the previous reviewer states "if you're a picky traveller visitor... this is not for you!" but no place in Samoa is a FIVE star accommodation, however, the owners and staff make this rating more than a five star! Each apartment offers a double room, twin room, laundry, storage room, spacious bathroom (shower only), fully equipped kitchen with rice cooker & toaster (minus a kettle & microwave) and large living area. We were able to fit four single mattresses in the living room. A/C (in lounge and main room), ceiling fans and car port. Our apartment was next to the pool so convenient access for our kids. The trampoline, small swings, basketball/volleyball/tennis courts and swimming pool were also used regularly by our kids. Being in a hot island, the kids made great use of the facilities offered. The restaurants are no longer operating but there is a Farmer Joe's supermarket and Burger Bill 2 minutes drive away or 10 minutes walk. Laundry facilities, Masseurs and Pool Table are also available. I cannot rave on about how we LOVED this place. Our kids were so homesick at Talofa Inn B&B that moving to Le-Ric Housing redeemed us from having a disaster of a holiday. Our kids made great friends with the owners children and we left Le-Ric making friends who really felt like family. We are grateful for the owners for accommodating for our needs last minute but most especially, making us feel at home. They were not intrusive. They live on the upper level and all the apartments are on the lower level. The power meter is checked daily so expect the staff to be in your apartments each day and you don't realise they're there as they go about the work quietly. Each night, the gates are closed and a Security Guard keeps eye from 6pm till 6am. He monitors two gates and does a wonderful job in trying to make sure he's at the gate for your exits and entries. Every Friday evenings, the staff have their work gathering on the courts so if you want to watch a bit of competition volleyball - seeing the staff spike it out is great entertainment. Again, don't expect FIVE STAR accommodation in Samoa with functional and matching utensils BUT that's what makes this place so perfect, the fact that everything you see at apartments with your mismatched plates, missing utensils or mismatched bath towels is something you would expect at your own home. The apartments is clean and we had no problems asking for an iron or extras that might not be found in your apartment, is provided by the staff/owners. Bonus: Rick Rentals for Car Hire by owners! The only disappointing thing about this accommodation is that it is not ADVERTISED enough!!! Thank you for making our Samoa Holiday a pleasant and problem free vacation. Our kids loved it and the memories are priceless!!! Hopefully this review compensates for the lack of advertising!!! :)…
