Beach fale
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
A fale (pronounced fah-lay), is a traditional Samoan thatched roof house. Traditional fales do not have walls, or they have thatched blinds surrounding the living quarters.
Beach fales, located on sandy beaches in and usually furnished in western accommodations, are common loging for tourists to Samoa.
