Samoa's Boho Home just 6 minutes from the Airport + Car Rentals

We needed a place for just 12 hours . It was very clean and inviting. The air conditioning was amazing.

What we liked: this place is beautiful, stylish, well-maintained, and furnished with everything you need. What we did not like: The stay did not feel welcoming at all. The check-in instructions contained mostly threats of fines and expulsion, some in ALLCAPs: 100 if the place was too dirty, 500 fine if the toilet clogs, 100 if the next door neighbor finds garbage in their yard (doesn’t say which neighbor) and immediate eviction if the police get called (does that happen a lot?) The house is filled with signs reiterating these, and other rules. Don’t get me wrong, they were all great rules (no smoking, don’t let your dog poop in the house, etc..), but it just felt a bit heavy handed. Also, there’s an expensive cabinet that covers an entire wall in the living room with tons of “do not touch” signs, making the living room feel like an opportunity for upcharges. What we liked least were the surveillance cameras on both of the private porches with signs underneath them promising 24/7 surveillance. We didn’t feel comfortable using either of these very nice porches knowing that a stranger might be watching. it’s a beautiful place, I’m just not sure the owner is ready to rent it.
