loved every thing from the room to the private beach

The grounds were beautiful, peaceful, right on the beach, clean, interesting decor, kayaks and bikes to use for free. There is a communal kitchen where each room has a small fridge to store food and cooking is allowed and encouraged. Plenty of outdoor seating for everyone. Each bungalow also has an outdoor sitting porch, and water spout to wash off feet before going inside your room. It all felt very well thought out.

The rooms are a little small but very functional and beautiful. It would have been nice to have a larger communal fridge to store shared or left over groceries for the next people so food doesn’t have to be thrown away.

Loved the location. Close to good restaurants (within walking distance), right on the beach with perfect sunset views, common area (professional kitchen, individual refrigerator space, access to utensils and dishes, plus a large area for gathering) was especially nice.

Room was small, linens were older, pillows were uncomfortable, and overall impression of the room was somewhat disappointing. Very basic accommodation without any luxuries. It’s fine but you won’t call this room the best part of your trip. I’d rate the location a 10 and the room a 7.

Great view, the beach was awesome. Free parking, kayak, kitchen from 11AM-11PM, lots of space to enjoy activities, and very nice sunset views. For vegetarians and vegans, it is highly recommended to buy your food at Papeete and transport it to the island. Food options nearby are very limited, expensive, and almost every dish has meat or raw fish

The wifi wasn’t so great. I would recommend getting a good cellphone plan anyway when visiting these islands

Clean, updated facility and rooms. Nice landscape and right on a nice white sand beach with shallow lagoon. Kayaks and bikes provided.

Room was tiny and there is very little overhang from rain protection on the deck of the beachfront units. And it rained a lot!

we stayed in a beachfront room.poured rain the whole time we were here but the facilities are very comfortable and the view is outstanding!!! hopefully we can return and have better weather!

Location, view over the lagoon, gorgeous sunsets. Use of communual kitchen .

The manager, Claude,was very arrogant. He told us that the property was not for children. Been harrazed by another guest and the manager did not do anything. Felt unsafe. Left property earlier. Rooms are invaded by ants and cockroaches. Most of the time wifi did not work. Would not recommend.

beach and location

The staff told us that due to their mistake we would have to change the room after the first night. without looking for a convenient solution for us, only after talking to the manager was it like in the original booking. breakfast not good, poor and processed products. not adequate for the price. no snacks during the day, sad and poor.

Rooms were very tastefully done, simple, clean and comfortable. Can’t beat the view from the private beach—and white sand, too! Great spot to watch the sunset. Was very thankful for the free use of kayaks, and we paddled out to the nearby islands that had excellent snorkeling. (There’s also a reputable dive shop next door to get really into the water.) Staff was professional and friendly, and gave us a brief tour of the property when we arrived. Thank you for an excellent stay. Highly recommended.

I loved my stay, so not really much to recommend. Wished the check-out time wasn’t so early but the check-in is pretty early too so it balances out. And they invited us to remain on the property after check-out, which was very nice. I guess you could say I didn’t want to leave...

perfectly located. west side for sunsets, have kayaks and bicycles to use for free. scooters and cars available to rent from the lodge. there are about 10 restaurants within a 5min walk. private beach for guests only. full commercial kitchen to use and individual fridges. air con is good. it’s nice and quiet (not many children around). the hotel manager Claude and his wife are some of the most genuinely nice people I’ve had the pleasure of meeting, they help you to book taxis, give info on the island and even helped the process of getting my lost luggage from Tahiti to moorea. I would recommend this lodge 10/10 as we couldn’t stop saying how amazing this place is. soooooo good.

wifi is slow and cuts out at peak times when lots of guests are online. not great drainage in the shower so it flooded partially into the bathroom. rooms are private but don’t have great noise insulation so you can often hear your neighbour bungalow.

loved this place so much! right on the sand, totally peaceful and staff were excellent!

nothing!

loved the location, friendliness of the staff, and having bicycles and kayaks available.

Beautiful spot - located close to the cute little village of eateries and crafts. Fab swimming, accommodation and, people who run it are lovely.

Very clean. private & quiet with a gate from the road.. Simple but very nice furnishings. Right on a beautiful spot of beach. Sting rays swim right by. Beautiful sunset spot. Close to a couple good restaurants & markets. Breakfast on site, guests have use of the kitchen to prepare own meals.

Breakfast was fantastic! Location wonderful for Kayaking!

Room do feel like you can hear next door

Superb welcome by the lodge's manager, gives clients full attention. Very comfortable bungalow. Quiet. Splendid view on the beach. Restaurants and village shops just a few paces away. Great place to jump on boat tours.

Peacefull.

Price too high, nobody at arrival, at the reception. And it was normally set to pay at the establishment but surprisingly it was taken from my card upon arrival. Staff, when threre, could be more friendly.

The location was nice. Tree in center of the property was out of a movie. Adorable “main house” for watching sunsets and sunrises. The idea is there— we wanted to love it. Owner was nice— staff were OK.

It was not what we expected based on the reviews! Kitchen barely had anything useful to cook (think 1 giant old knife, minimal everything, etc. And BUGS and critters EVERYWHERE. Cockroaches, ants everywhere, geckos were polite guests, birds got in our room and stuff took half a day to come get them out, some sort of animal got into our bag of sealed food on the counter (guessing a mouse or something that visited only at night!) If you want one step up from camping— this is your spot… otherwise… stay somewhere nicer!!!

Loved everything about this place!!! Small, quaint, quiet, beautiful...not looking for a resort stay with pool, restaurants, bar or crowds. Right on the water with a beautiful Banyon tree in the center of the property. Every unit had a foot shower and the courtyard had a full outdoor shower for beach/sand rinse. We were not aware before we arrived that there is a full professional kitchen available for use. A few guests were using it. Maybe we would have used it but ended up enjoying all the local food options anyway. There is a Super U on the way from the ferry/airport to the resort to stock up on snacks and liquor. We used the small refrigerator in the room for cheese, leftovers. and drinks. Breakfast is available if you are a breakfast eater which we are not, nice amenity though. Several single kayaks free to use, only one 2 person which was popular. Free bikes available and the cutest little golfcart/beach car for rent. We didn't use either as we had rented a car but nice option.

I wish the pillows would have been flatter/thinner but that is a personal issue. Everything else was PERFECT!!!

Beautiful beach and our room was right next to it. Spectacular sunset right from the patio of our beach hut. Common area and garden were very nicely taken care off and decorated - large Banyan tree in the middle of the property. Communication was good - the staff let us know that the room was ready well before check-in time.

Rooms are very dated - Pictures do not match the rooms anymore. The curtain rod for the main door for the room was broken and barely hanging on. The bathroom was full of ants (red ants and small ones) and some of them made their way to the bed. There was no way to seal the room from the wind from outside, as there was a large gap on the windows and under the door (as well as around the lock). Mosquitos and other bugs came in and we couldnt prevent it. The wifi barely worked in the rooms.
