The Nut Letters: What People Are Saying About Coconuts

Thank you very much for all that you did to make our stay a really pleasant one. Upolu is a great pacific island Paradise – weather, water, mangrove lagoons, mai tais, whoops – well I had great time eating too. My print and ginger masher from the gift shop have already found a place to call home. My only regret was having too little time and that I probably didn’t give credit or reward enough for all the thoughtful and pleasant help your staff gave a set of down home folk from far away.

Hello Barry. I have just entered a dream holiday comp, you had to list the best holidays you have had. I had to list three places in the Pacific. Of course, Coconuts was my first pick. Hope I win so that we can enjoy Coconuts Beach Club again. Wish me luck.

With every new Nut letter there are more memories that surface again.

I just brought your last newsletter back from Newcastle whilst sorting out my mother’s papers following her death. She always talked about what a wonderful time she had in Samoa and the relaxing times on the beach next to the bar where the girls in the restaurant were always gigging whilst going about their work … Keep spreading the magic and friendship that comes from Coconuts Beach Club and spreads all over the globe. I hope to see you all before too long.

Thanks for your latest missive. The newsletter always stirs a brief but happy memory … I was a journalist from the Manchester Evening News in northern England … I promised my wife that I’d bring her after I retired. Hopefully that day is closing in so who knows? One day I’ll be sitting up at the wonderful bar again. Anyway, keep up the wonderful work of making people happy.

Great to hear from you again, Barry. We’re coming back – just don’t know when.

Talofa! Hello again! Having fallen back on our feet with a thud, back at work etc, I thought it timely to offer our utmost thanks to your resort for the wonderful wedding and tremendous stay we enjoyed at Coconuts. It was tremendous to witness the Fa’a Samoa, the Samoan way. I cannot thank your staff enough, particularly on our wedding day. Your girls who were organizing our ceremony on the day were an absolute delight. On our return to Australia, we were overwhelmed by the quality of the DVD wedding presentation put together by the Samoan photographer. Ten out of ten. It was also wonderful to see you, Barry as owner, being a fantastic host, always enjoying treating us and other guests to a warm hello and a chat at breakfast and dinner. Congratulate Mika on his fabulous food. Our Samoan experience was without exception a total surprise, as we were taken aback by your resort, the beautiful beaches and coastline, lush tropical jungles, beautiful water falls, and best of all, the beautiful Samoan people! We have already recommended without exception Coconuts and Samoa to everyone we know … we look forward to enjoying our first wedding anniversary at Coconuts in March 2007….The accommodations were perfect, the food was sublime and the staff were an absolute treat.

Hi Everyone!!! Just a quick email to say that we LOVED our stay at Coconuts just recently and we are already saving to try and come back very soon! We could not have wished for a better honeymoon … In the meantime, here is a photo of us enjoying one of Lanu’s magical Coconut Cocktails by the pool!

I just looked on your very nice website, this reminds me of a wonderful time I had at your place (in a Treehouse)! I especially want to thank you for sending your newsletters over such a long time – for sure I once will be a returning nut! Warm greetings from Kiel in Germany.

Thank you for keeping our 1997 memory of Coconuts as fresh as a Maninoa coconut through the medium of Coco News Nuts and Nuts Letters. We think fondly of our stay at CBC. The arrival of your bulletin is like the arrival of a Pacific breeze in our home. Hearing about the continuing improvements, the preservation of some of the excellent facilities that we remember so well, the continuing caring staff who looked after us with such patience and friendliness and the delightful relaxed ambiance of Coconuts creates an irresistible force which will draw us back soon. We are working on it!
