Villa Vailima - Travel tip by jorgesanchez

Member opinion: To get to Villa Vailima, where the Scottish writer Robert Louis Stevenson lived with his family, and died, in 1894 (he had tuberculosis and needed warm places to live), you can start your walk in Apia market; it will take you approximately one hour, much less if you start in Vailima.

The house was constructed in 1890 by Stevenson and today is a kind of traveller’s pilgrimage, especially his tomb, further up in the peak of the hill.
Samoans loved Stevenson very much and called him Tusitalia, what means “the one who recounts tales”.
