Samoa Tradition Resort

Set near Apia on Upolu, right on the Apia riverwalk and a short drive from Faleata Golf Course and Papaseea Sliding Rocks. Close to Maketi Fou and the Robert Louis Stevenson Museum, it’s a convenient base for exploring the capital.

Tucked into native forest and built in traditional Samoan style, the resort blends quiet seclusion with modern comfort. Rooms are air-conditioned and range from studio-style aparthotel units with kitchenettes, full-size fridges and microwaves, to rooms with private balconies or patios, flat-screen TVs, coffee/tea makers and bottled water.

Take a dip in the outdoor pool or wander the lush garden. There’s an on-site bar and restaurant, a BBQ area, tour/ticket assistance and wedding services. Staff can arrange transfers and excursions, and laundry, dry cleaning and safe-deposit boxes are available.

Wireless internet is available (surcharge). The property also offers express check-in, 24-hour front desk service, luggage storage and onsite parking.

An on-site restaurant serves local Samoan flavors and the bar/lounge is perfect for evening drinks. Grab a casual meal from the BBQ area or ask staff for local dining recommendations.
