Cape Mulinu’u
Nicknamed the Sunset Beach, this is a perfect white sand beach where the world’s day comes to an end. Poetic and beautiful, this is a must-visit part of Samoa.
Visit Falealupo
Samoa is a compendium of legends, memories and traditions, none captured better than Falealupo. From its Rainforest Canopy Walkway to the war god Moso’s Footprint to the House of Rocks, everything has its own story.
Falefa Falls
During the monsoons, these magnificent falls engorge and provide travellers with a powerful night of Nature’s power and bounty. Also worth a dekko are the Piula Cave Pools.
Pulumelei Pyramids
It’s not certain if a Samoan tourist took inspiration on his or her holiday to Egypt 2,000 years ago, but Pulumelei is grand and beautiful in its own right.
Tusitala Museum
We know Tusitala better as master storyteller Robert Louis Stevenson. Yes, the Scottish writer fell in love with Samoa so much that he spent the last years of his life here!

Samoa encapsulates over 3,000 years of history, culture and nature like no other South Pacific destination. Being a diver’s destination, it has long golden beaches, warm blue waters, over 200 varieties of coral and 900 species of fish to meet. Samoa’s two main islands of Savai’i and Upolu offer travellers the chance to experience luxurious resorts, lava fields, dense forests and magnificent surfing breaks.
However, the main reason people visit Samoa again and again is due to the way of life in the islands also known as ‘Fa’a Samoa’. A distillation of thousands of years of culture passed down from generations, the Cradle of Polynesia holds many secrets for travellers to unveil. The perfect destination to experience authentic Polynesian culture; Samoa has many historical landmarks, festivals and traditions that visitors can experience.
Things to Do
Accommodations and Hotels
Samoa has a full complement of accommodations that suit every traveller. Apia has some of the most exclusive hotels and resorts such as the Sheraton Samoa Beach Resort, the Aggie Grey Hotel, the Taumeasina Island Resort, Sinalei Beach Resort and Spa and many more. From five-star resorts to small hotels right by the beach, our South Pacific Specialists are ready to help you choose the right accommodations.
Best time to Visit Samoa
The right time to visit Samoa would be the ‘dry spell’ between May and October; where travellers are spared the sudden squalls and thundershowers between November and March.
One of the best experiences to have in Samoa is to be accepted into a tribe and get invited to a ‘umu’ feast. Bonfires, traditional barbeques, song and dance mark the night as unforgettable. Also remarkable is the ‘siva’ dance performed by the village youngsters although visitors have to dance with the enthusiastic performers when asked. You have been warned.
The village visit would be incomplete unless a tour of traditional arts and crafts is undertaken. Travellers can take back with them wood carvings with traditional Polynesian motifs. There are also carved wooden drums, spears and other items adorned with decorative patterns.
The best of Samoan events is the Independence Celebrations (June) and the Teuila Festival (September); where there are non-stop celebrations with floats, markets and merrymakers throughout the islands.
For all those travellers who want to soak in a 3,000-year-old culture and natural beauty like never seen, Hideaway Holidays brings you all-inclusive Savaii holiday packages. Check out the Savaii Lagoon Resort for top-shelf accommodations or Tanu Beach Fales for a more traditional take on holidaying.
Whether you wish to be pampered like royalty in a five-star resort or stay in a quaint Samoan fale, our South Pacific Specialists are ready to help you choose the perfect holiday package.
In Samoa you will find uncrowded diving, fish, fish and more fish. A few turtles, the odd shark, a couple of eels and lots of coral. Upolu and Savai’i have fabulous dive spots, sporting around 900 fish species, including spinner dolphins, stingrays and whales.
Scuba diving offers the opportunity to explore the often unspoilt dive locations off Upolu and Savai’i. Samoa offers great surfing options and Samoa is just be one of surfing’s last great undiscovered paradises.
Honeymooners will find a number of romantic Samoa resorts where you can treat yourself to a honeymoon suite on the beach and lie on the deck and watch the day go by while sipping on a tropical cocktail. And if you prefer the night life, then take a suite at one of the hotels in Apia and pamper yourselves with a spa or massage.
Take a sunset cruise on a boat and enjoy the refreshing sea air or simply lie on the beach and be waited upon by the friendly resort staff. For the more adventurous, hire a car and explore the islands and stay at a small beach fale. Nothing could be more romantic than a Samoa wedding, and to make the occasion memorable you can choose the perfect setting for your day – an old church with a choir singing, a tropical garden with fragrant scents filling the air, by the fresh water pool at the base of a cascading waterfall or a secluded beach on an uninhabited island at sunset?
