Cheaper deals can be had at midrange hotels, like the Grape Bay Beach Hotel, where a week's stay including airfare from New York City, costs as little as $893 per person, with breakfast.

When Chawki Bsaibes opened up in the old Dutch embassy on Monrovia's bullet-pocked seafront in the dying days of Liberia's first civil war in 1993, his customers were peacekeepers, war correspondents and development workers.
