Located in Bora Bora and with Mount Otemanu reachable within 8.1 miles, ALAROOTS BORA BORA CAMP provides a private beach area, non-smoking rooms, free WiFi and a shared lounge.

The camp is on the Motu and you have views on Taa and Bora. Its just exceptionnal, no words to describe it! Rai and his family are just so welcoming and friendly. I had such an amasing time, relaxed and had a lot of fun!

Budget travelers know there's no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: Save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a little more.

    Lovely traditional bungalow. Safe, clean and tidy. Friendly hosts, and easy to contact. Free shuttle from and to ferry. Free bikes provided. Really appreciated the large fruit bowl on our arrival. French bakery 200m down the road.

    Great location right next to the water. The pool was fantastic! Staff were amazing, nothing was too much trouble. A plus was having an aircon which was great. The walk to the town centre was an easy 15 min walk. Suggest you walk facing oncoming traffic as there are no real walkways.

    Location is EXCEPTIONAL. All is Secure, Safety and Guest care and satisfaction is paramount. Xtra's / offerings for Guests is FABulous. Local Knowledge clearly pointed out on arrival - grocery store, local restaurants their happy hours and closing times etc.... valuable information. Bungalow/Room is perfect - a fully self contained, private unit within close proximity to other rooms, all very compact and quaint village with white sand from entry to the private beach at the other end of the pathway.

    Modern bungalow right on the beachfront. Lovely area. Great location. The bungalow itself is very, very small. The kitchen is tiny, and so is the bathroom. We stayed for 4 nights and only had one beach towel, one hand toilet, and one bath towel each, that’s not enough if you go onto a swimming holiday!

    Everything was great, nice experience of local house and interaction with very friendly local couple. They were welcoming, helpful and profesional. Went beyond to accomodate for some extra help and support. House was very clean, big and cosy, great location.

    Nice beach area. The rooms (all across the road from the beach) were clean and comfortable if a little tired. The air con worked well. Most of the staff were very friendly and helpful. There are restaurants and a little supermarket close by. Close to Matira Beach which happened to be more sheltered from wind while we were there. Cheaper than the 2 big resorts close by (whose restaurants are better but you can eat there without staying)

    Budget accommodation but very reasonably priced for Bora Bora. We rented e-scooters on site and the price was much cheaper than elsewhere. Shared bathroom and toilet but very clean. The room itself had no aircon but well ventilated with huge windows (partial view of the lagoon) and there is also a very powerful fan. Few minutes walk to the famous Matira Beach where you have views of the sunset. Excursions etc would probably pick you up at the nearby Intercontinental Le Moana which is just a 3 minutes walk away, very convenient.

    The Village Temanuata is in a great location at Matira, with access to its own clean and tidy beach and near the public beach. It was a quiet and relaxing place to be especially with a veranda out of the wind. It was close to the restaurants and food shops. We had a small kitchen which was useful. The staff were all very friendly Compared to other hotels, this was a much cheaper option so we weren’t expecting luxury

    The family you stay with are very kind and welcoming. As a solo traveler it really made my trip and made me feel at home. There is somewhere you can go in the evening opposite and it’s a 20minute walk to all the amenities you could need. Hostel is clean and safe!
