Small wonder that famous Scottish writer Robert Louis Stevenson chose to spend the last few years of his life in Samoa; with its lush rainforest clothing volcanic peaks, sparkling white beaches, stunning waterfalls and warm, welcoming locals, this destination truly is a visitor’s Treasure Island. Actually, to be strictly accurate, Samoa is not one but 10 islands, two large ones and eight islets, each offering amazingly distinct environments for visitors to explore. This Pacific paradise has avoided the negative impacts of rampant tourism that have tarnished some destinations. Samoa remains unspoilt and therefore there are endless kilometres of deserted beaches, enough to ensure you can find your own private tropical heaven. And just as the countryside and beaches have remained largely untouched by time, the same is true of the Samoan way of life. The country boasts a Pacific culture stretching back 3000 years and it’s based on a traditional life centred on family and respect for elders. Communities are headed by chiefs, known as matai, and Samoans are predominantly Christians - there are more churches here than in the whole of Rome. Tradition also extends to the accommodation on offer in Samoa. No visit to this destination is complete without spending at least one night in one of Samoa’s open beachfront fales. Just imagine being lulled to sleep listening to the waves lapping on a spectacular beach while you are fanned by a sultry tropical breeze. If you’re splashing out, there are, of course, deluxe resorts available where you can sit by the pool watching the sun setting while you sip cocktails. Or if you prefer there’s a complete range of accommodation in between. Samoa Video Guides
