Accommodation in Raiatea

The property was stunning, the location of the property was peaceful and unspoilt. We could tell that lots of thought had gone into the design of the property and attention to detail. The hand painted artwork at the property was a visual delight. Extra large / super comfortable beds, rooms much bigger than the photos show. Panoramic views were incredible. The staff were really attentive and helpful. The food was by far the best we had in French Polynesia. The owners were very hands on, and were very kind and helpful ensuring guests have the perfect stay. We did not want to leave!

Beyond expectations. Quiet, spacious and very comfortable bungalow. Direct access to the water, where swim, snorkeling and kayaking just await! Everything is well thought, both functional and "solid". The hosts are very generous with their food, boating, and hospitality in general, including planning trips and such. You need a vehicle (or can rent theirs). I had rented a scooter in town and enjoyed this particular corner of the island.

Paradise on the beach in Raiatea, French Polynesia. Super friendly staff and great beach houses. They have their own rental cars on the premises.

Staying in a small paradise with amazing bedding and very friendly property owners! Fantastic breakfast and dinner available as well.

The garden, the water front access, equipement (kayak, snorkling, bbq, beach...)

My husband and I liked the friendliness of the owners. The time they took to explain to us where we have what. The houses are big enough and cute. Very nicely furnished and carefully laid out. By far the best stay in French Polynesia. We got more than we expected.

The location was convenient, the bungalow was in great condition and with everything we needed. We loved the breakfast bar that we could open! The host was very responsive, friendly and helpful.

Great location (quiet place with private beach), spotlessly clean and perfectly equipped (including bikes and kayaks) and amazing host - Suzy.

Jeff and Tepairu were the most amazing hosts, this accomodation is situated in a beautiful lagoon that we were lucky enough to swim in every night and every morning. Beautiful amenities, an easy six minute bike ride to the local store to fill up on essentials.

Beautiful location with fabulous seaview with the possibillity to watch Mantarays close up just in front of the pension. The really nice studio is very well equipped and tastefully decorated. Tahitea is owned by the most amazing host couple, very helpfull and always at your service for almost anything. We had a car rental delivered to the pension they booked our boat and Island tour. We went on the beautiful river with the free kayaks. A trip we can highly recommend. Tahitea pension is truely a home away from home. Would love to come back to this indeed very charming place.

You are in the middle of a very-very authentic Raiatea experience. It is like living in paradise. You indeed have a private beach, you have a free kayak, you can kayak to the public motu. BUT NOTE THAT CURRENTS CAN BE TOUGH, so don't try to kayak to the motu in bad weather. We did try, but turned back :) Otherwise, the water is crystal clear, a lot of fishes - basically you book yourself a constant snorkel access here. There is also a shop nearby. Please DO NOTE that this is not a private accomodation - your hosts living nearby should be taken literally, and shared kitchen is not shared with other guests, but with the hosts , a family, who run the place. That is choose this wisely - if you do want privace, this is not your place. If the hosts cook or have dinner outside, you don't want to tell them to do it otherwise. But if you do want a very authentic experience, this is your place. We do not speak French, so besides basic info we did not speak much with our hosts - but if you do speak this language, you will learn a lot from them, I guess they can teach you cook Tahiti / Chinese meals, share a lot of stories about the island etc.
