Om boendet

Highland Hideaway ovanför Apia inbäddat i din egen privata lilla dal

På Samoan Highland Hideaway har du HELA huset för er med maximal komfort, avskildhet och full funktionalitet i ert eget hem. Att inte ens nämna produkter från plantagen.

Detta verkställande hem är vackert inredda, helt slutna och fullt möblerade. Vi är semi-off-grid med solenergi (batteri och el-back-up), regnvattentankar och vår egen plantage. Mango, banan, papaya och avokado är några nöjen som väntar på dig.

Det huvudsakliga split level huset har fyra sovrum, tre kompletta badrum, modernt och fullt utrustat kök, 60 'lång veranda som vetter mot ett drömdäck med utsikt över den privata dalen. Detta hus är perfekt för familjen och särskilt många par.


Den huvudsakliga bostaden: Detta hem på split nivå ligger på en rimligt brant lutning mot nordväst med utsikt över en liten privat dal. Ett vackert modernt kök som vetter mot vardagsrummet är omgivet av en enorm innesluten L-formad veranda. Även på övervåningen har vi sovrummet angränsande av en hel ensuite, ett annat sovrum, full storlek badrum och tvättstuga. Nedre våningen består av ytterligare två stora sovrum, ytterligare ett badrum och rymligt kontor angränsande av ett läsrum.

Verandan vetter mot ett nytt däck som ger dig intrycket av att vara på toppen av ett berg. Du kommer att älska att uppleva månens glans i dess fullhet och de underbara kvällsvindarna; för att inte tala om vårt lokala kaffe tidigt på morgonen. Serenity, extremt tyst, mycket säker och insektsäker.

Aternative Traditional Samoan Fale: Vår nya men traditionella Samoan Fale (hem) gör att du kan uppleva det unika med denna mycket gamla samoiska design, särskilt extremt effektiv ventilation. Den forntida designen har endast varit unik för de samoanska öarna. Den ovala formen täcks av ett extremt högt och välvt tak som förbättrar falsens svalhet. Interiören är intrikat handavslutad med lokala material som badar dig i tidlös samoisk tradition.

Jungle Paradise

The home was spacious and accommodating for our large family. The front living area + patio was a great gathering space at the end of the day. Friendly neighbors stopped by with fruit and food, making our stay even more enjoyable.

Hideaway

The best place we have stayed in, in Samoa. Beautiful home and grounds. Plenty of room for a big group. House was clean and had everything that you need, like you were in your own home. Tim was helpful and went out of his way to make our trip memorable. Thank you for having us, will definitely look to stay here again.

Beyond Expectations

We had a beautiful stay and Tim and Maria’s home. They were so welcoming and accommodating throughout our stay. The grounds were immaculately kept by gardener Ioane. Great big space for families. Clean and tidy and kept nice and cool with fans in every room. Well equipped kitchen, great washing machine and restful living areas. Hosts were wonderfully polite and easy to communicate with. Poor cellphone reception if you don’t plan on driving to town daily. Wifi available but not always reliable. Otherwise not a single issue with our stay. We would absolutely recommend this stay to other families!

Hidden piece of heaven

We had the opportunity to stay at both of Tim’s properties while in Samoa. Both houses were above and beyond our expectations. The main house is roomy and could fit much more than our family of 5. The balcony is to die for. The property is beautifully manicured and couldn’t be any more stunning. Tim is an absolute pleasure to work with and made us feel right at home. The property will be our first choice if we are looking for a place to stay in Samoa again.

Perfect match 'Home away from Home'

WOW! Better then the photos. On arrival, we were greeted by Lena & Tepora who were both very welcoming. All the amenities were up to standard and the up keep of the gardens were amazing! The location was perfect and suited our needs, very private and well away from the main road. BUT, as the owners have mentioned, make note that the shared drive-way is very rocky and you will be best to have a 4WD or similar .We all enjoyed our stay very much and would definitely recommend this property to small & large families. Thank you to the ladies Lena & Tepora for the great hospitality. We hope to see you again on our next trip. Regards Lydwina T (New Plymouth, NZ)

Loved the kindness of the people. John was great!

It’s hard to find a place big enough to House 10 adults. There were beds for only 9 so one had to sleep on the floor and the downstairs beds were small. It’s a very nice home and we adjusted well and had a great time. We loved sitting out on the large balcony in the cool of the evening a gazing at the glorious stars. We especially enjoyed the fresh fruit from the plantation tha John brought us.

Amazing Property- Perfect for Large Family

Our large family group just came home from staying at this amazing property in Samoa. It is just minutes from downtown Apia and is nestled in the hills just above making it about 10 degrees cooler than staying in town. It was clean, well appointed and Tim and Maria are the most enchanting hosts. We felt so pampered with daily visits to check up on us, deliver fresh produce from their garden and a wonderful woman who tidied up for us. It was magical! We watched the glorious sunrise and sunset on the balcony- where we also did daily Yoga ( they even had mats for us!). We will definitely return again and cannot recommend this place high enough!

Beautiful - a home away from home

My family had a great stay in this beautiful, well kept home - we like to thank our host Maria who made sure we were all comfortable & safe - always made sure any amenities that was needed eg extra fan, rice cooker, Maria would attend to straight away - she would drop whatever she is doing to do this. Maria was always helpful and a pleasure to chat to. It was good to have a dryer (main house) and Maria did not mind when you would use it (day or night) - loved the solar system invested in both properties and the house was very spacious ( we had 7 adults and 4 kids ). The road going to Hideaway would be the only issue but our kids enjoyed it bouncing side to side thinking it was a ride :) Thank you Tim & Maria - we have recommended this home to friends & family and hopefully when we return again would definitely stay here. Ps Our kids are missing the dogs Snowy & Excel

A small price for comfort.

Tucked away in Aleisa, we were greeted by the lovely Maria (owner). Clean Home which contains everything you need and more. A plantation of pineapples, pawpaw, avocado and bananas we had access too. Internet reception wasnt great but plenty of books to read. A safe place with friendly night security and grounds maintenance team.

Slow pace of life off the beaten path

Had a great time in Samoa at this property. Everything as advertised, safe secure property with comfortable amenities. More than expected spaciousness. Spent two weeks here seeing Upolu and enjoyed it. Tepora & Lena were helpful and friendly, as was everyone else we met in Samoa. Property was very beautiful true to photos, wonderful grass driveway. Kitchen was well equipped with gas stove, modern fridge, etc. Only a few over the air channels on the TV, but one showed a movie most every night. Corner store available right nearby within walking distance (limited) and large supermarkets available in about 20-30 minute drive. Only concerns was lack of fans (only two rooms had ceiling fans) but Lena was able to get us a portable fan, and of course, the ever present tropical bugs. The screens do a good job keeping out the flying ones. A clothes dryer is available at the fale, but the house has a line in the yard and lines under the carport to dry despite the rain. The road from the main sealed road to the driveway can be a bit rough after seasonal rains, so enquire as to conditions.

Tim and Maria Walkden-Brown are now seeing their vision of providing a place for travelers to appreciate serenity and quietness in a beautiful and uncomplicated hideaway come true. Why, because that is what we ourselves seek…. how much more for us to be share it with like-minded soles….. the Samoan Highland Hideaway.

Our quest seeded in the early 1970’s when Tim arrived in Samoa from Australia on his way to Canada. He met his wife Maria and now 38 years later after sojourns in and between Samoa, Canada, Australia and New Zealand we are entering into our dream. No wonder the iconic writer Robert Louis Stevenson had a similar dream. Our family is settled in Australia and Canada and sometimes Bosnia but they all adore the purity of the beauty, culture and simplicity of Samoa. So can you.

Tim has spent a lifetime in heavy engineering in many remote locations from the Canadian Arctic to the windswept Sub-Antarctic. Maria’s time away from Samoa saw her putting her heart into what she loves; serving people. She had the ongoing privilege of working alongside people from Africa and Asia while meeting premiers and Canadian hockey stars. Above all she loves her garden so where better than Samoa. As you can see we are a multicultural family, love meeting like-minded folk from all countries.

We built our present house in this beautiful and quietly remote highland region of Aleisa on the cross island road to Paradise Beach in the early 2000’s. Since then the grounds have developed and much of our sustenance matured. We completed building a traditional Samoan fale adjacent to the main house in 2010. We can’t wait to share this with our guests.

Varför värden valde detta boende

Located in the Samoan highlands above the capital city Apia away from the tourist traffic and business of city life. We originally chose this remote and wild piece of land because it was distant for everyday Samoa. It has transformed to what you see today. We developed the land for our retirement home and then it took on the expansion into our present vacation property.
