Robert Louis Stevenson Museum (RLS Museum)

The Robert Louis Stevenson Museum, a significant landmark and one of the most famous historical sites in Samoa where the famed Scottish poet and author fell in love. The museum is the author's former home, which has been meticulously restored to its former glory, along with some of the author's work and family artifacts.

Because of his many positive encounters with the local community, he became a well-known and respected person among those who knew him. At the age of 44, he died on December 3, 1894. His coworkers and subordinates buried him on Mount Vaea (inside Vailima) at a location with a view of the sea.

The RLS museum is well-maintained, and all of its amenities are in fine working order. The museum also offers a gift shop for tourists, with a sign book at the entrance of the shop where visitors can mark where they are from and, more importantly, provide feedback on their experiences with the facility. Guests are not permitted to bring shoes or dine inside the museum for reasons of maintenance.

This is a once-in-a-lifetime chance to see the world's biggest collection of Stevensoniana on public exhibit.
