Is it safe for a solo female traveler to stay in beach fales on Savai'i?

I'm traveling alone and the open-sided fales look beautiful but I want to feel secure at night

Samoan culture is very respectful of women, but for extra peace of mind, maybe choose a fale with an enclosed wall or a private room for your solo trip.
