Samoa Accommodation
where to go
|
 |
Samoa accommodation is concentrated around Apia, the picturesque capital on the north shore of Upolu. Here there are over a dozen hotels, from the large and internationally acclaimed Aggie Grey's with its rich history, to small inns and self catering motels. Prices are competitive as Samoa is a cheap destination with budget rooms available for US$20 per night and deluxe hotel rooms for US$80. Most hotels and backpacker hostels are in the town centre along Beach Road but a few are in the quieter coastal regions of Vaiala Beach and Mulinu'u Peninsula a short walk either side of the town centre. There are plenty of excellent restaurants around Apia and most tour activities originate from here.

Outside of Apia, there are only a handful of hotels around the entire country, of which only four are genuine beach resorts. However, there are over 20 Beach Fales (traditional bungalows) around the island, owned and operated by local families usually in a rural village setting or alongside a secluded beach.

Three up-market beach resorts can be found on the south coast of Upolu, including Coconuts, the ultimate beach holiday destination in Samoa with bungalows and rooms catering for up to 40 guests, a swimming pool and fine dining, Sinalei Reef Resort and the even more intimate Sa'Moana which caters mostly to surfers and other water enthusiasts. The only other resort on Upolu is the quiet Samoan Village Resort on the west coast which has less pricy bungalows. For those looking for self catering, Vava'u Beach Resort offers five self contained bungalows on a secluded and truly beautiful beach setting on the south-east coast of Upolu.
Savai'i has less accommodation than Upolu, with two rather old fashioned hotels on the south-east coast a few miles from Salelologa Town (The Savaiian and Safua Hotels) and another middle of the range hotel (Siufaga), across the road from a picturesque beach. The most upmarket resort is undoubtedly the Le Lagoto Beach Resort at Lelepa Village on the north-east coast. There are just 5 self catering bungalows on a lovely beach with good snorkelling and an excellent restaurant making this the best choice for couples. The only other hotel is the Vaisala Bay Hotel on the north west coast offering budget rooms in a large building fronting a fine white sand beach.
