    The main problem is the lack of air conditioning, mainly in the hot and humid season. And mosquitoes in the same period.

    Very relaxing place, closed room with opened kitchen and bathroom, all private, in a beautiful garden. Kitchen is fairly well equipped. Lovina and David are lovely, very helpful. Even provide washing free of charge, which is really nice. The location is near the shops, main road, relatively close to the airport (20 mins by car) and mainly very close to a fantastic beach full of corals and fish.

    The pillows provided for the bed were very very soft, not my ideal, but this is a minor issue.

    David and Lowina were incredible hosts, very welcoming and very invested in facilitating a wonderful holiday by providing lots of information about Tahiti and what we could find in the area, including an almost private beach just 1 minutes walk away. Excellent location to shops, cafes. Accommodation was excellent

    A lot of mosquitoes came in the evening, which meant I had to rely on the ceiling and standing fan. An anti-mosquito repellent is also recommended. However, you will always find mosquitoes in the shallow areas near the water on Tahiti.

    Top location in Nuuroa, a little off the road, which makes it really nice and quiet. Everything you need in the apartment including parking. The access to the beach with almost white sand was great and the beach wonderful. Owner was always easy to reach and very friendly and accommodating. I enjoyed the stay.

    Lovely POlynesien accommodation, it was very clean ! Stayed 3 nights. They made me a special offer as I wanted to check in early. Around 8am. Location close to the beach this was really nice , had a swim early in the morning and there was no one at the beach. Supermarket is nearby. David booked me a taxi to take me to the port, however for some reason the taxi was unavailable so he took me there. Which I really appreciated! Suggest you hire a car or scooter ( I used helloscoot) . Bustransport is challenging and quite often the buses a very full.

    It was a great time in the little house I rented. The owners are very nice people, very helpful and friendly. Good communication with David & Lowina, a super-equipped house and proximity to the water and the service area are just some of the advantages. I made particular friends with one cat who liked to visit me and I will remember this stay very fondly ♡

    Nothing!

    This liitle cottage was like a little hidden slice of paradise. We arrived at 2am but David had provided excellent instructions on how to get there and it was all ready for us. The owners speak no English and i speak a little French but we used online translators and David was incredibly welcoming and helpful with some ideas on local restaurants and parking and markets in the city. The accomodation is simple but very cheap and perfect to kick back and relax. It is secure and quiet and you can walk down a track to a small beach (walk around to the right in ftont of the abandonded resort) where you can swim and snorkel and see a great array of colourful fish.

    This has nothing to do with the accommodation, just an advice, check the time zone from where you are flying! especially during night times!

    I had a perfect stay! The rooms are equipped with everything you need and it has a touch of home! The sleep quality is very good, as it is super calm. You wake up in a little paradise. The garden is awesome. Just 2 min to walk you are at a stunning beach, snorkeling, sunbath, sunset. Everything you could wish for. A little bakery is just 5min away, with super delicious croissants. Excellent working internet! Most special is to stay with David & Lowina. It’s more then just a guest house. They are really welcoming you! And David showed me the best snorkel places to see turtles and rays. It’s also only 10-15min fare away by car from the airport. Even you only stay some days, come down here! So much nicer instead of staying in the city :) I can really recommend to stay here!

    Directions to the home are a bit confusing for anyone who is not local and no AC in room but was not advertised to have it on the posting and was not an issue for us personally.

    David and his family were very generous hosts and worked with us despite a booking error which was totally my fault. He was kind enough to help us out with some last minute transportation on Christmas Eve. The room is a good size with multiple fans and very comfortable bed complete with a detached private bathroom, kitchenette, outdoor dining area & shower. The location is within walking distance to grocery stores and a very short walk to a beautiful beach overlooking the island of Moorea. Our only regret is that we were not able to stay longer.

    • Stayed 1 night

    Accommodations are rustic and room does not have screens on the windows or doors and there is no A/C. If camping is your thing then this hut might be for you. It was not our idea of a good time. We did not like the nearby beach that you could walk to.

    Rustic accommodations in the back house of a family compound. No screens, no air conditioning. I guess it was an authentic experience in a thatched hut. Hosts were eager to please and very outgoing and wanted to make sure we were well attended to. Directions were provided but still it was not an easy location to find.

    For non-French speaking travellers, google translate did come in handy and I’d encourage hiring a car or scooter to avoid steep taxi costs around the island.

    Our stay at Le Charme Polynesian was beautiful. The traditional Polynesian accommodation is very homely, and is in a great location, about 150m away from a pristine snorkelling spot. David and Lowina were attentive and friendly hosts, and had some snorkelling and beach gear you could use if you didn’t have your own. David and Lowina also took us to a traditional Polynesian performance taking place nearby, an annual dance that we got to witness.
