"The host family was amazing, it is a very quiet and rustic setting, incredibly peaceful! It was a great experience and was feeling like being in a friend’s guest house!"
"This wonderful home with the magnificent views was just steps from our own private beach and beautiful Tahitian waters-- where we saw manta rays and lots of gorgeous fish.The home is clean and had all the amenities needed for a most wonderful stay. The beds were confidant... showers all had excelled pressure. A/C in the bedrooms at night for a comfortable sleep. We grilled two nights on the veranda and pinched ourselves each morning that we were sitting in paradise. The house is directly across the street from La Passione, an incredible french patisserie. Terrible for my bathing suit fit - but the most magnifique almond coissant, pain aux raisin and apple tart this side of Paris.The rhum Distillery was also a treat and just a walk across the street...no DD required.We loved having a little distance from Papeete (20 minutes) to acclimate from the long trip and prepare for the cruise. And while the cruise itself was fantastic - my husband would have chosen to stay in this quiet, peaceful home with the stunning views of entire vacation. Alban was a fantastic host - friendly, kind, & responsive. We will return one day."
"Beautiful and unique “hobbit cabins” in far south Tahiti… two warm pools, fish ponds, amazing flowers and foliage, fantastic sunsets, great breakfast.
Be aware that the bungalows are open to the elements and there may be a short uphill walk from the parking lot. Nets are provided for the beds and we didn’t have a serious issue with bugs. There are also chickens wandering the grounds, which is fun."
"We booked 3 nights at this bed and breakfast after our cruise in Tahiti. We arrived around 3 pm and unpacked and were sitting on the porch furniture when we noticed lots of ants on the furniture. We just decided to just not to sit out there and we were leaving anyway to go out to dinner. We got back late in the evening and went straight to bed. The next day we got up early and had breakfast in the owners kitchen. We left right after breakfast to go to Tahiti Iti on the other side of the island to Tuaputoo to watch the surfers. We went to dinner on the way home and were back around 8pm. That’s when we saw ants everywhere in the whole unit. They were in the bed, in the bathroom sink, trails everywhere along the floor baseboard and furniture. We shook out the blankets and it was late so we went to bed. Early in the morning we decided to skip the breakfast and notify the owner we would not be staying the third night because of all the ants. She stormed into our room and saw all the ants and instead of apologizing to us, she accused us of having food in the unit. We weren’t even in the unit most of the time and ate out both days! There were hundreds of ants and the only food we had was 5 cookies in a refrigerator which was located outside the unit on the porch! She refused to refund our money for the third night so we left anyway. No way were we going to stay another night! We notified Travelocity and sent them photos of the ants. Unexpectedly they gave us $100 compensation"
"We loved our stay here. Each villa has its own small pool and a great view of the large lagoon. There was also a lovely hammock out back that was so comfy to lie on. The two rooms had AC so they were nice and cool as we slept. They also offer a very delicious breakfast, at an additional cost. A truly special and unique place."
"Overall, I thought it was nice and comfortable. Google maps originally took me to the wrong place, but we got it sorted out. They seem to have a fair number of animals - besides a couple of dogs and a cat, I definitely heard a rooster as well. So it could be a little disruptive overnight when you're trying to sleep if you're not used to that sort of thing."
