Independent review for Coconuts Beach Club Resort on Upolu Island in Samoa

Coconuts Beach Resort Samoa is one of Samoa's few upmarket resorts with stylish rooms and bungalows, good service, a spa, restaurant and activities centre. Set alongside a part sand, part rock wall coastline and directly infront of a good swimming, snorkelling and surfing lagoon, Coconuts is a good choice for couples and holiday surfers.
