Top Hotels Near Maeva in Huahine

"There are truly no words to describe our experience but I will do my best. After spending nearly 3 weeks in Huahine we left not wanting to leave. The Villa is located on what I think is the best location on the island. You are right on the beach with turquoise waters stretching as far as the eye can see. Waves crashing over the reef provide a great background when going to sleep. Not too loud and just enough to have that “island” experience. As a family with 4 small kids the villa was exactly what we needed. Hotels never really work for us as our kids always prefer “home cooked” meals. The kitchen had more utensils and appliances than we could have imagined. Most of the appliances were imported from the US which was a nice touch. BBQ is right on the deck which makes it a great central location for family cooking and dining with the best view in town. There are 2 kayaks conveniently located by the front gate which take you to world class snorkeling. The best we found is out past the rock jetty and all the way to the right. When you get to the end it’s a drift snorkel through what feels like an aquarium. Ideal for every level of snorkeling. With regards to the location, you are 5 steps from the Hotel Lapita which has a restaurant that is open to the public. They have a Tahitian show every Saturday night. A short 8-10 minute walk down the coconut lined beach will take you right to the middle of town which has a variety of quaint little restaurants. Be sure and try the Poison Cru, the local Tahitian sea food dish. In Fare you will also find the local market Super U, which has a great variety and will keep you well stocked during your stay. Outside the store you will also find a variety of local vendors selling fruits, veggies and other already made foods to go. The owners, whom live next door, are as friendly and accommodating as anyone could ask. Our kids and their kids played literally all day long. Several days they played in the water and on the beach until is was dark outside. Our kids aged 9, 7, 4 and 1 were outside pretty much all day. So much discovering to be had for kids at that age. The perfect place to get the “city” our of them. Can’t say enough about their hospitality. Truly wonderful people that were always looking to make our stay truly special. They also have a pearl boutique right one their property with the best prices and quality on the island. Already looking forward to our next trip back to Huahine."

"The host said he did not work with Orbitz even though I paid orbitz for my stay so I had to personally pay the host for my stay which he charged me over $100 over the orbitz price. Also he was messaging me through the orbitz app and still claimed he do not “work with orbitz” and said orbitz was a fake booking. I don’t know if this was a scam or not. Also kayaks and bikes were an extra charge- most places this was included. "

"We just spent 4 wonderful days at the Hotel Le Mehana on Huahini Iti in May. This was a very lovely part of our trip to French Polynesia. The hotel is a special place on a special island. Huahine is one of the most beautiful tropical islands in the world and you will not go wrong staying here. The islands of Huahine are some of the least visited in the area with far less people than on Moorea or Bora Bora. The hotel is a fantastic property on a very scenic beach, a place I will always recommend to others. We had a lovely garden unit that had everything needed for a wonderful beach stay including a shaded lanai, a very comfortable bed, a huge shower, a safebox for your valuables, plenty of towels and a refrigerator to keep your drinks and snacks cold. The waterfront units looked even better. "

"The property himself is very beautiful and isolated I would say from the main town but connected by a Free Water shuttle service. Unfortunately due to the COVID-19 and a limited number of guests the property was not operating with all the services and amenities fully functioning. A very limited number of staff working, a reduce timetable of shuttle service and per my suggestion the hotel need some serious remodeling of the infostructure. Despite all of these factors we truly enjoyed the sunset and the bungalow by the beach. "
