The village is known for its beautiful malae (ceremonial village-green) nested along the island's rugged southern coast, lined by the fale tali mālō (guest houses) of its village chiefs. The original name of the village was Tuāulu. In 1926, Tuāulu and another village within the district, named Vailoa, combined to form the Vailoa-tai village. Although the whole of the village is named Vailoatai, residents further divide it into Vailoa-uta and Falīlī areas. [ tai - on the side towards the sea, seaside; uta - on the side towards the land, inland ] Vailoatai along with Taputimu, Itū'au (Malaeloa) and Fūtiga form the itūmālō (county/district) of Tuālātai.
