About This Guide
Samoa has embraced pet-friendly travel with open arms, and these hotels lead the pack. Whether you're traveling with a Great Dane or a Chihuahua, each property on our list has been vetted for genuine pet welcome — not just a grudging 'pets allowed' policy, but thoughtful amenities that make your companion feel as pampered as you. Our top pick, Litia Sini Beach Resort, stands out for its dedicated pet concierge service and custom pet beds. Le Lagoto Resort & Spa, Savai'i offers a particularly impressive pet menu, while Lalomanu Fale Accommodation provides a private garden area perfect for morning walks. When choosing a pet-friendly hotel in Samoa, location matters as much as pet policy. We've prioritised properties near parks, walking trails, and pet-friendly restaurants so you and your companion can explore together without constant taxi rides back to the hotel.

Our Picks

South Upolu
A small, family-owned beachfront resort near Lalomanu with comfortable fale-style bungalows set on a reef-protected bay. Litia Sini strikes the ideal balance between genuine Samoan hospitality and the basic comforts travellers expect — good beds, hot showers, and home-cooked umu meals that showcase the finest of Samoan cuisine.
Savai'i
Le Lagoto is Savai'i's finest resort — a collection of just nine beachfront and garden fale villas on a lagoon so clear the coral formations are visible from the terrace. The spa, restaurant, and small-group feeling of this intimate property create an experience of total immersion in Samoan nature and culture that no larger resort can replicate.
South Upolu
Family-run Lalomanu Beach fales — open-sided thatched beach huts with direct beach access on one of the Pacific's most beautiful beaches — represent the essential Samoan beach experience. Several family operators including Taufua Beach Fales offer traditional morning meals, evening barbecues, and a simplicity that feels genuinely restorative after the overproduction of typical resort travel.
The Sheraton is Samoa's most internationally branded full-service hotel — a reliable choice for business travellers and those who want consistent global standards in an unfamiliar destination. Set on a beach five minutes from Apia's centre, the resort's pool, reliable WiFi, and broad dining options make it a practical hub for exploring the island's sights.
Apia's most storied hotel, Aggie Grey's was founded in 1933 by the legendary Agatha Grey and hosted W. Somerset Maugham, Gary Cooper, and James Michener — who is said to have based his Bloody Mary character on Aggie herself. The property retains its historic character through traditional Samoan architecture alongside modern amenities, and the fale accommodation in the garden setting is genuinely charming.
On a small island connected by bridge to Apia's waterfront, Taumeasina is the closest Samoa comes to a boutique luxury resort: 86 overwater and beachfront bungalows, a spectacular infinity pool facing the Pacific, and a waterfront restaurant of genuine quality. The resort's central location yet island setting makes it the best combination of convenience and atmosphere in the capital.
