INDEPENDENT TRAVELLERS

And if you prefer to have the village all to yourself, or you want to have a traditional Samoan wedding (make sure you bring your own spouse), or you just want to drop-in during your visit to Samoa, feel free. We can accommodate you as well.

We take great pride in ensuring the safety of all our guests, we have lavatube holes to fall down, we have sharks out behind the reef, we have tall coconut trees, we even have falling coconuts, we have some tough rugby players, we have some over-vivacious beach volleyball spikers and even dense rainforest, not to mention the warm tropical sun.

So, our village has a rule: the Council of Chiefs looks after the males and the Womens Committees look after the females. It's that simple.

There is plenty of safe drinking water, cool tropical showers, flush toilets and air-conditioning on those days with a seabreeze blowing. All the farce-food stores have closed down due to competition with fresh fish, free-range chicken, organically-grown vegetables and fruits and, of course, our infamous ground oven or umu. Ever tried coconut bread cooked in the oven, coconut fish pie cooked in the coconut shell or hot Samoan cocoa - all prepared locally before you very eyes (and hands, hopefully).

Spend a day in our gardens collecting the nectar of the forests.

Spend a night out fishing with our fishermen - and don't forget a nice underwater torch (eith a year's supply of batteries) for the Chief. Better still, try the re-chargeable types.

And be prepared to just sit and contemplate your future, the scenery and all you newfound friends. Our Village has been judged the most boring in the world - no nightclubs, no drag races, no adventure parks, no casino, no McDonalds, no ...................but, we have managed to offer something that you guys don't have overseas? Come along and findout for yourselves.
