Samoa Accommodation Pictures



Samoa has only a few luxury hotels, all found in the capital town of Apia on Upolu Island. Aggie Grey's is the oldest, and a legend of the South Pacific with other hotels including Kitano and Insel Fehrman catering mostly to overseas business people and Samoan families vistiing from overseas.

Samoa Resorts Selection

 There are five small beach resorts in Samoa, one on Savaii island and the other four along the south coast of Upolu Island. The largest of these has only 22 bungalows so intimacy is guaranteed. All offer good value for money compared to its South Pacific neighbours of Fiji, Cook Islands and Tahiti.

Samoa excels at offering excellent value traditional beach fales, most in beautiful settings. Beach Fales are made with thatch roofs, wooden poles and coconut blinds and are without doors. Beah Fales are popular with backpackers and those wishing to experience a more natural style accommodation, often being hosted by local families. Meals are inclusive but at most beach fales, bathrooms are shared with other guests.

Beach Fales offer simple living. Traditionally woven mats are laid on the floor with a matress and mosquit net. Some beach fales have raised beds. All provide fresh linen.

Overwater fales are the stuff of dreams. Traditional fales cost from as little as US$30 including 3 meals, with a million dollar view and vernada with steps leading into the lagoon.

Traditional beach fales and overwater fales are found in some of the most remote regions of Samoa enabling you to fully explore the country and traditional villages. Green Turtle Samoa manages 26 beach fales on 4 islands, providing transport to and from and ensuring certain standards of food, hygiene and service and provided.

Samoa has only a few budget hostels, all found in Apia. Dorm beds are scarce but most backpackers stay at traditional beach fales around the islands.

American Samoa is not very well set up for tourism and there are no beach resorts. Pago Pago Town has a number of business hotels and there are a handful of lodges and bed and breakfast accommodations on Tutuila Island.
