"Staff was great and very helpful, breakfast in the cafe was super convenient and tasty, Reeftop bar on the roof had great drinks and some food, also very good. Room was clean, nice, and well insulated (could not hear the roosters crowing at all). Have zero complaints and would stay there again for sure. Another plus, right across the street from the ferry terminal in Papeete. "

"Fresh croissants and fruit from the island for breakfast were delicious. Wonderful, kind hosts with fabulous recommendations for our time on the island. Loved every minute of our stay. Only wish it were longer. Such a peaceful and beautiful property. "

"We loved the private beach. This was our daughter's favorite part of the trip. There are other people who have access to the beach as well as you are in a neighborhood of Arue but compared to the public beaches you have a piece of paradise all to yourself. We also enjoyed all the animal life (giant snails, crabs, birds and one day we even saw a sea otter swimming near us). The neighbors do have dogs (and there are a lot of dogs in Tahiti) but they did not bother us. The rental van was a must for us. It enables you to go to the local markets, grocery stores, restaurants, and visit the island. We only booked one tour on viator which was snorkeling (and technically you can do that in the private beach area), but we are not experienced and wanted a guide to take us into one of the lagoon areas around the island. Our primary purpose for booking a Vrbo over the resort was the private beach and having access to a rental vehicle that would allow us to explore independently. There are a lot of bugs (it is a tropical island), so bring bug spray and anti-itch cream. The hosts were very respectful of personal space and we only saw them a couple of times during our stay and for the pick up and drop off at the airport. We wanted to experience life as the Tahitians do and so that is what you will get with this beach house which is among the locals who are extremely gracious and friendly. "
