Getting There:
Polynesian Airlines offers fights from Faleolo Intternational Airport on the north west coast of Upolu to Moata Airport, about five km from Salelologa Town on the south eastern tip of Savai'i. Cost is about ST$50 one way with five flights per day and take just 20 minutes offering aerial sightseeing on the way. Ferries depart Mulifanua Wharf on eastern Upolu five times a day, costing just ST$7 one way and taking 1 hour and 15 minutes. There's a twice daily fast ferry taking just 45-minutes and costing a couple dollars more.
A taxi direct to Savaiian Hotel from Salelologa Wharf will cost about ST$10 (takes 20 minutes).
When in Salelologa, be sure to visit the Green Turtle Office across the road from the wharf for tourist information and round-the-island sightseeing tours or hop-on / hop-off travel passes.
Car rental is best arranged from Apia and brought with you on the ferry.
There is a limited bus service to Manase but you will probably find one awaiting the ferry at Salelologa Wharf, although it is likely to be crowded.
