There are not many beach resorts in Samoa. Two with international standard are at the southern coast of Upolu, Coconuts Beach Club and Sinalei Reef Resort and one in the western part, Samoan Village Resorts. The oldest and biggest hotel is the legendary Aggie Grey’s Hotel in the capital of Apia. Also most other places to stay in Upolu are in Apia, which doesn’t have any beaches in its surroundings. But along the beaches on both islands you will find plenty of so called beach fales (Samoan huts) for rent. They are have an open structure on all sides, Samoan blinds give you some privacy at night and protect you from bad weather. The villagers take care of their guests, the rental rate normally includes 3 meals a day. Cold (sometimes hot) showers and toilets are usually near by, and mattresses or ground mats, mosquito nets (essential) and clean linen are provided. You don’t actually need to pre-book a beach fale. The best thing to do is drive along the coast by bus or rental car, and stop at the place you like best. Staying in a beach fale is an unforgettable experience not to be missed. Tip
