Samoa Short Stay Holiday Homes

Samoa is made up of ten islands, but most of the action is on Upolu and Savai’i, so it’s best to base your Samoa holiday package here. Upolu is the country’s second largest island and home to the capital city, Apia. Savai’i is the third-largest island and a 45-minute ferry ride away from Upolu.

A Samoa holiday package can be as action-packed as you want it to be! Climb up volcanoes or lava rock, dive under the turquoise ocean to find colourful coral or simply spend your days on the sand, cocktail in hand.

On Upolu, keen divers, fisherman and surfers will find a body of water around every corner – Salamumu Beach is a particular favourite for surfers and sunbathers alike. Hikers and walkers won’t be left behind: the lush rainforest and waterfalls of Lake Lanoto’o National Park and O Le Pupu-Pue National Park are well worth an explore.

In Apia, the local market (Maketi Fou) offers a bounty of fresh produce, while the nearby flea market sells kava bowls, sarongs and handmade souvenirs. Pubs and restaurants are on hand to quench any post-shop thirsts, serving up the traditional liquor, kava.

If your Samoa holiday package is based on Savai’i, marvel at the Alofaaga blowholes, or take on a spot of bird watching as you trek through its forests – the island is home to countless tropical birds. Visit the Saleaula Lava Fields to learn more about volcanic activity in Polynesia, or simply find a serene lagoon to perch for the day.
