Where to Stay in Pago Pago & Tutuila: 10 Best Accommodations

One of the finest beachfront options near Pago Pago town, the hotel combines traditional fale-inspired architecture with international hotel-style comfort.

The private beach offers endless entertainment with complimentary kayaks, sailboats and water sports equipment, while the restaurant seating positioned just above the sand provides the perfect spot to dine with ocean views.

Centrally located within walking distance of Pago Pago dock, restaurants and government offices, you'll find easy access to everything Pago Pago has to offer.

Across 40 well-appointed rooms, configurations include two queen beds, queen plus single bed combinations, and king bed options, with four "King Deluxe" rooms featuring extended lounge areas and futons for extra space.

Goat Island Café serves as the resort's popular dining destination, offering breakfast, lunch and dinner in an open-air setting that captures the tropical atmosphere.

Beyond the beach activities, guests can enjoy the outdoor pool and take advantage of the on-site convention centre for events.

The sister property to Sadie's By The Sea, Sadie Thompson Inn is its more affordable counterpart which occupies a charming timber building overlooking Pago Pago Harbour.

Named after the fictional protagonist from W. Somerset Maugham's short story "Rain" (1921), this historic two-storey inn welcomed the famous author himself back in 1916.

Today, you'll find various room configurations to suit different needs. Standard rooms feature either one king bed plus futon or two queen beds, whilst harbour view rooms offer a king bed with extended lounge area and scenic street and harbour vistas. For those seeking more space, apartment-style rooms provide a full kitchen alongside a large living and dining area.

We love unwinding in the air-conditioned bar, complete with pool table and great music. Sadie's Restaurant specialises in American favourites like steak and seafood served in a charming colonial setting.

Overlooking Pago Pago Harbour, the inn provides complimentary shuttle transport to and from Pago Pago International Airport for guests travelling on Hawaiian Airlines, with rental cars also available for hire.

Perched on a hillside between town and the airport, Le Falepule offers an upmarket B&B with views to die for.

The terrace boasts amazing views where you can help yourself to drinks from the honesty bar, creating the perfect spot to unwind after a day of exploring.

Rooms are tastefully furnished with subtle Samoan themes that feel comfortable yet familiar, providing an authentic touch without overwhelming the space.

A tropical breakfast is included each morning, setting you up perfectly for your American Samoan adventures.

With complimentary laundry services and free WiFi included, Le Falepule covers all the practical bases while maintaining its boutique charm.

If you’re after convenience and comfort near the airport, Tradewinds Hotel is your top pick in Tafuna.

You'll find this is American Samoa's largest and most comprehensive hotel. The four room and suite types all feature Balinese-inspired furnishings rather than traditional Samoan décor, which gives the place a unique tropical feel.

Every room comes with an ensuite, and here's what we love most—guests get free airport transfers and complimentary continental breakfast. This adds serious value, especially if you're on a short stay or dealing with a layover.

The hotel features solid conference facilities, plus there's a swimming pool for when you need some downtime.

For dining, you'll want to check out the on-site Equator Bar & Restaurant, which serves up American-style favourites (think burgers and grilled mains). Don't miss their traditional umu nights though, which is a great chance to taste authentic island cooking.

The location is ultra-convenient, just moments from Pago Pago International Airport.

For a tasteful and truly local stay, Moana O Sina is well worth considering for your stay in Tafuna.

This charming bed and breakfast offers the perfect mix of Western comfort and Polynesian charm, with homely rooms featuring French doors and timber furniture set within lush tropical gardens. The standout feature is undoubtedly the swimming pool positioned right on the coast's edge, allowing you to watch the waves roll in while you take a refreshing dip.

Ocean views are spectacular from every angle, while the spacious accommodations provide a welcoming retreat after days of island exploration. A complimentary continental breakfast is served daily (except Sundays, when you'll be given a breakfast voucher for a local cafe instead) in the waterfront breakfast fale, and for special dining occasions, you can enjoy meals in the modern twist of an open-air Samoan fale.

Meanwhile, the complimentary WiFi keeps you connected when needed.

Another option on the Tafuna shoreline, Maliu Mai Beach Resort's main drawcard is its restaurant, but it also has a small selection of hotel rooms that are too convenient to pass.

This charming accommodation sits uniquely tucked between the runway and the coast.

Run by a welcoming local American Samoan family, the property showcases intriguing Greek-inspired pillar architecture that's been lovingly restored through gradual renovations over the years.

While the shoreline is mostly rocky rather than sandy beach, the spectacular sea views from your oceanview room more than make up for it. And instead of your average swimming pool, they have a true Samoan-style sheltered rock pool built into the cliffs.

The real magic happens in the spacious dining hall and especially out on the deck, where the lively bar service truly makes this place shine. This is also where you'll be able to connect to the hotel's WiFi.

American Samoa's most unique accommodation, Tisa's Eco Fales, can be found right here on the east coast of Tutuila.

As the only Samoan-style fale in American Samoa, the lodge offers an upmarket twist on traditional accommodation with real beds, table and chairs, driftwood and nautical décor, plus plenty of space to unwind.

This eco-fale sits directly on the beach, providing intimate access to nature while your gracious hosts, Tisa and CandyMann, are real characters offering unmatched hospitality.

Accommodating up to four guests with a minimum two-night stay, your experience includes healthy (and plentiful) meals for breakfast and dinner. On-site, you'll find Tisa's Barefoot Bar – a must-visit destination whether you're staying here or not.

Join their island tours and eco-experiences, like the Alega Marine Sanctuary snorkelling tour, or simply enjoy spending time at one of the country's best beach accommodations, just a 15-minute drive from Pago Pago town.
