Situated at the westernmost point in the world, Samoa is the last place on earth to bid farewell to the sun each day. Samoa's natural beauty ranges from the rainforest-covered rugged volcanic mountain peaks of the two main islands to the vast valleys leading down to a coastline ringed with a necklace of white sandy beaches. Stay 4 nights at Saletoga Sands Resort & Spa on the southeast coast of Upolu. A white, sandy beach and breathtaking, tranquil blue waters provide the perfect setting for this stunning boutique retreat. Then take a ferry to Savaii Island and stay 3 nights at Le Lagoto Savaii in an oceanview bungalow. Located on a secluded white, sandy beach fringed by coconut palms and crystal clear waters, Le Lagoto offers all the modern comforts in an intimate, idyllic setting. Starting from $2430, including air from Los Angeles.
