Samoa Ports Authority chief executive So'oalo Kuresa So'oalo said the Sevens Seas Mariner, which was scheduled to arrive next Monday, has been cancelled.
TheĀ Samoa ObserverĀ reports it's the fourth cruise ship to do so in the past two months.
However, government spokesman Nanai Laveitiga Tuiletufuga said that contrary to recent reports, the ports of Apia remained open to cruise ships.
Nanai said some ships were being cancelled because they did not fulfil quarantine requirements from the Ministry of Health.
