Heavenly Bliss
I being a Contractor/Carpenter right away was attracted to the woodwork in this rental when I viewed this rental online. I was even more appreciative when I arrived and saw it in person. To my amazement the Martels, Alain and Regina gave us a heartwarming greeting with pupu's. I found that Alain was also a master carpenter and we were like two peas in a pod. Regina was full of smiles and sincerely caring about any need we might have. We paddled the kayaks out to a Motu that were on premisis and truely enjoyed our stay with them. I highly recommend a stay here. We live in Hawaii, but will call this our second home. We've definetly found two new friends here. Aloha for now, we will be back Ed Markel & Donna (Alain and I almost have the same last name)

Orama Lodge was perfection. The decor was incredibly artistic, original and welcoming. It definitely gave the feeling a true hidden garden oasis. Our bungalow was extremely comfortable and was also incredibly beautiful and well-appointed. All the common areas to relax (and there are very many) were comfortable and well-designed. We learned that the owner is a designer by trade and her passion for it really shows through every small detail. The lagoon is easily accessible as the dock is on the property so swimming and kayaking etc are all on site in the gorgeous teal water. The owner Eileen and all staff were extremely kind, attentive and genuine. You can tell it’s a very happy place to be. We also enjoyed visits from the well cared for resident kitties. Will book at the lodge exclusively when returning to M’oorea as it far exceeded all expectations. It was our favorite stay within French Polynesia!

Nous avons beaucoup aimé le logement chez Régina et Alain. L’accueil était vraiment au top. Le logement était impeccable et était très fonctionnel. Nous avions à notre disposition des vélos et des kayaks gratuitement. Alain s’est offert pour nous conduire au ferry. Je recommande fortement ce logement de 5 étoiles.

Most Hospitable Hosts!
The property was immaculate and quaint. The host and hostess were extremely friendly, gracious and generous. We were greeted with the traditional floral lei and made to feel welcomed. They made sure we knew of all the sights to see on the island. They even hosted a happy hr and appetizers for their guests. We also received the departure necklace of shells when we left. Of all the places we stayed in the French Polynesia, staying at the Orama Lodge Bora Bora was our best experience. They truly went out of their way to assure we had a positive experience.

We had a lovely stay with a very comfortable bed and everything we needed for a self catering stay. Ten minutes drive from the main town. Kayaks and bikes provided and we cycled round the island. Hosts were wonderful. We had drinks with them in the Friday night and they took us to parts of Bora Bora, which a tourist would not normally see. They provided loungers to watch the sunset and sent on the stuff we left behind to Huahine.

An amazing property with phenomenal hosts!
I have gone to lots of places, and I’ve stayed in lots of properties, but this particular one, I have to say, was magical. It is the cleanest and most serene. The energy was excellent throughout the property and cottage, and the owners of this property made everything that much more magical. I give this listening 10 stars! Truly a fantastic place to stay.

From the advance welcome email to the actual greeting at the door, these hosts are amazing (Alain & Regina). They were the first one's who greeted us with a lei (flower garland) !! Everything inside the room seems brand new. Nice snorkeling spot just in front. Thanks to Alain and Regina for making our stay on Bora Bora so wonderful.

Orama Lodge - fantastic, relaxing, welcoming and relaxing stay on Bora Bora!
My wife and I made our way down from Honolulu, Oahu, Hawaii for a week long trip to Tahiti, Moorea and Bora Bora. The highlight of our week was the stay at Orama Lodge with Alain, Regina and their pups. It was a nice relaxing, refreshing and very fun stay. We look forward to returning someday and spending time to continue our wandering of the island and enjoying the people and sights of Bora Bora. We enjoyed spending time at Orama Lodge and visiting with owners. The sunset facing studio is well equipped with everything one might need during a stay on Bora Bora. The bed was very comfortable, a nice bonus after a long day at the beach lounging and snorkling or out exploring the motu. They opened up their home to us and were so accommodating. It truly was the highlight of our trip. We especially enjoyed a Friday evening sharing a bottle of wine and chatting with them on their lanai and learning more about their lives and family. We truly felt like we had been taken in and welcomed as a part of their o'hana (family).

The best hosts and lodging in Bora Bora. First, the communication was easy and prompt and full of rich explanation and directions. Second, the bungalow was so cute and had everything we needed - great bed, kitchen, bathroom and more. Lastly, the hosts!!! So lovely! They welcomed us warmly with fresh fruit and had many suggestions for us which all turned out to be fabulous. A great stay and highly recommend. And new friends.

I had wonderful experience with Alain and Regina Their hospitality is truly amazing. Both of them treated us like special. I used so many B&B all over the world, but I never met like them. Warm heart always tried to accommodate us. I had very memorable experience with them. Property is quiet, super clean and everything there, what we need. Plus they constantly checked us, we are doing well or not. I highly recommend this place. If you stay Bora Bora long enough, rent a car, and stay with this wonderful couple.

Nice space for a short stay- recommend vehicle
We stayed at Orama for 4 nights. Not much do to directly around there. The hosts are wonderful and went out of their way as we did not have a car. They do have bikes but a little far for us but maybe ok for younger people. Only a mini fridge and no oven. It states oven and refrigerator in amenities. Beautiful craftsmanship and quality items. Too bad we woke up on our last morning with tons of maggots on the floor. I think something must have died in the wall or whatever because they were not in the garbage. Anyways I am sure the owners will take care of it. They are great people! Nice necklaces on arrival and departure! Thank you for all you did for us!

An awesome stay at Orama Lodge in Bora Bora, a lovely cottage nestled by the seaside! The cottage studio was beautifully handcrafted by Alain which added to a wonderful ambiance. Our hosts, Regina & Alain were so gracious & hospitable, and went above & beyond as hosts: they even gifted us with a lovely New Year Eve basket of gourmet treats so we can enjoy it in celebration! We truly enjoyed our conversations with our hosts! Our stay was so enchanting and lovely. With Gratitude.

Nice place to stay.
We really liked the Orama Lodge. It is a small , clean very cute studio. The owners are very nice and the husband made all the woodwork at the lodge which is beautiful. There is not a washing machine at the place. There is a cook top and microwave along with a hotel size refrigerator, not very big. The only thing that we didn’t like was the shower head had to be hand held it would not stay in a position to wash off. Besides that it was a great stay for us.
