Sublime Tahiti Beach Retreat

Sublime Tahiti Beach Retreat

10/10 Excellent
"We loved our stay! The bungalow was clean, well maintained, had everything we needed and on a beautiful property looking towards Tahiti Iti. The staff (Anne was a pleasure to meet) was very helpful and available to assist in questions and suggestions to enjoy the island. Sublime is in a central location on the island away from Papeete making a restful and quiet retreat perfect for a relaxing vacation. We would definitely stay here again."

Vanira Lodge

Vanira Lodge

10/10 Excellent
"I stayed in the Kava bungalow which I thought was excellent. That said, the stairs to the loft where the main bed is are small and steep so something to keep in mind if you need to try to make it down to use the bathroom and back up in the dead of night. The grounds and the view are straight out of your favourite travel influencer’s TikTok, so that’s a highlight, for sure. And the food at the restaurant was great. The whole place is up a steep hill so it’s not really walking friendly but if you can afford to stay here you can likely afford a rental car to negate that."

Pension Terehaunui Teahupoo

Pension Terehaunui Teahupoo

10/10 Excellent
"The Teahupo’o surf break is basically directly out front (off-shore at the reef, of course) but water taxis are right at the shore by the front gate of pension so the location could not be better from that POV. It’s a short walk (5 minutes) on a nice beach path from the Teahupo’o photo wave spot and Olympic rings, or you can drive to the pension and park but only if you’ve got a vehicle capable of river-crossing - so that adds to the charm of the place as well. The pension is quite nice, super new, with excellent wifi, so I’d highly recommend it for sure."

Beautiful house on white sand beach

Beautiful house on white sand beach

10/10 Excellent
"We stayed at Villa Moe for 10 days and couldn’t have been happier with our experience. The house is beautiful and sits right on a private, peaceful, and safe beach where you can snorkel, swim in the warm water, or simply relax and enjoy the incredible surroundings. The bedrooms were lovely and the beds very comfortable, but our favorite feature was the terrace. It was the perfect place to enjoy our morning coffee while taking in the spectacular views and, in the evening, watching the most gorgeous sunsets. The location is ideal, with easy access to downtown Papeete, the ferries to Moorea, and other parts of Tahiti, including the beautiful presqu’île. It was the perfect home base for exploring the island while still providing a wonderful place to come back to and unwind. We would absolutely stay at Villa Moe again if we return to Tahiti. It truly felt like a special place, and we were sad to leave! And finally, a huge thank you to our wonderful host, Alban, who was so welcoming and accommodating throughout our stay. Alban, merci encore et qui sait, à bientôt !"

They go out of their way to make sure you have everything you need and are very responsive if you need anything. I highly recommend Villa Paradise Tahiti. Just the view alone is worth it!!"

Punatea Village

Punatea Village

8/10 Good
"This is a great property if you wish to explore the south side of the island, or if you have your own vehicle. Unfortunately it is NOT 2.5 miles from the airport or the cruise ship port. It is on the opposite side of the island, Depending on traffic, a 90 - 150 minute drive. $115 taxi drive. You can get a 3 day tourist bus pass for 1 franc (a bus ride is 4 francs) but the busses stop running at 4:00 local time. The closest grocery store (outstanding selection of fresh fruit & veggies, meats, and baked goods) or restaurant is 2.5 kilometers from Punatea Village. I would stay there again, but only if I had a rental vehicle."

"We enjoyed every bit of our stay here. The property was beautiful and we really appreciated being able to use the SUP and snorkel equipment. Great snorkeling right out the door! The host was very accommodating and responsive to any questions we had. We loved the open air common spaces, The bedroom layout worked perfect for our family and the A/C units in the 3 main bedrooms kept the sleeping temperatures very comfortable. We loved visiting the nearby park and beach and available food trucks next door. This was a perfect place to start our trip before traveling to other islands."
