15 Unique places to stay in Samoa

Frequently asked questions about unique stays in Samoa

  • What are some hidden gems to explore in Samoa?

    For a truly off-the-beaten-path experience, consider visiting the Piula Cave Pool, a stunning freshwater pool nestled within a cave system. The Lalomanu Beach is also relatively secluded, offering calm waters and beautiful scenery. Further afield, exploring the remote villages on the island of Savai'i, like Safotu, provides a glimpse into Samoan village life untouched by mass tourism. These locations offer a more authentic Samoan experience.
  • Which airport should you arrive at in Samoa?

    The main international airport is Faleolo International Airport (APW) on Upolu island. Most international flights arrive here.
  • What is generally accepted for payment in Samoa, cash or card?

    Cash, particularly Tala (the Samoan currency), is king in Samoa. While some larger hotels and businesses may accept credit cards, it's best to rely on cash, especially in smaller villages and local markets.
  • How would you describe the safety of road conditions and driving habits in Samoa?

    Road conditions vary. Main roads are generally well-maintained, but smaller, more rural roads can be quite rough and winding. Driving habits are often relaxed compared to many Western countries; expect some unpredictable driving. It's advisable to drive cautiously and be aware of livestock and pedestrians.
  • What steps should you take if your passport goes missing in Samoa?

    Immediately report the loss to the nearest police station. You'll then need to contact the Samoan High Commission or your country's embassy or consulate for assistance with obtaining an emergency passport or travel documents. Keep copies of your passport details safe, separate from the original.
  • Where should you spend a week to experience the best of Samoa?

    A week allows for exploring both Upolu and Savai'i islands. Spend a few days based in Apia, Upolu's capital, exploring its markets and museums, then head to the south coast for stunning beaches like Lalomanu. Afterwards, take a ferry to Savai'i and discover its volcanic landscapes and quieter beaches, perhaps staying near Asau or Saleaula.
  • What festivals in Samoa are highly recommended for visitors?

    The Teuila Festival, held annually in September, is Samoa's biggest celebration, showcasing Samoan culture through music, dance, and food. It's a fantastic opportunity to experience the vibrant heart of Samoan culture.
  • Does Samoa have Uber or comparable ride-hailing services?

    No, Samoa doesn't have Uber or similar ride-hailing apps. Local taxis or renting a car are the usual transportation options.
  • What’s the top spot in Samoa for favourable weather conditions?

    Samoa's weather is generally tropical, but the south coast of Upolu tends to experience slightly less rain and more sunshine than other areas. Lalomanu, on the south coast, is a good option to consider.
