Reasons To
Visit Samoa

  • Food

    Samoans love their food and that is reflected in their restaurants. Menu's may well be limited by availability but everything they have will be freshly caught that day, often simply prepared the food is rarely gourmet but the ingredients are incredible. Weekends revolve around food with Saturday being almost entirely dedicated to the preparations for the enormous Sunday Umu which is often followed by a long sleep by the beach.

  • Geology

    Samoa sits on the Pacific 'Ring of Fire' and there is evidence of this everywhere, with Savai'i still being active. A visit the village of Saleaula which was buried by a eruptions between 1905 and 1911 is a strange experience as you walk through buildings on a thick carpet of solid lava.

  • Laid back lifestyle

    Few places in the world can be as laid back as Samoa. There is nowhere where you will feel rushed or pushed along and with that comes a wonderfully friendly approach to every aspect of life.

  • Rugby

    It does not take long to realise why this tiny island continues to produce such astounding rugby players. The average physique combined with the fact that they learn to play on incredibly hard pitches or the sharp black lava sand makes for some tough and very quick players!

  • Scenery & Landscape

    Samoa is blessed with incredible natural beauty; the unspoilt islands are dominated by rugged mountain ranges, fringed with coral reefs and blue lagoons, stunning beaches, rainforests, lava fields and blow holes. This diverse landscape is the remnants of ancient volcanic activity, and one of the many things that make Samoa the wonderfully unique place it is.

  • Surfing

    Because the beaches around the Southern coasts of both Upolu and Savai’i have very little reef protecting them from the waves, Samoa is a surfers paradise. People travel from all over the world to surf here and there are lots of surf schools dotted along the coast.

  • Culture

    Polynesian people are amongst some of the friendliest in the world and there is no better way to experience this first hand than to stroll amongst the flea markets and fresh food markets. Drink Kava with the local people and learn more about every day life in the Polynesian Islands.

Le Lagoto Beach Resort

Savai'i

Le Lagoto means sunset, and you will be sure to see some spectacular sunsets at this resort.

Located on a stunning white sand beach this small and intimate property houses just ten spacious fales, tastefully decorated and all with air conditioning and private deck areas with hammocks.

The excellent on-site restaurant serves a good range of dishes, with an emphasis on local fish and seafood, and simpler snacks are available from the pool bar.

The pool itself looks out over the beautiful lagoon, and you can snorkel directly from the beach in the crystal clear waters (equipment is available from the dive shop).
