Best place on the island of Tahiti!If you love snorkeling, the reefs are directly below with private water entrance. Garden and infinity pool is amazing. Full kitchen and grill on the patio. Sunsets in the evening on the patio. Henri is a superb host — very responsive and gracious.

Great spot for extended stay

We arrived in the evening and checked out by 11 so we didn’t really get to utilize the space to its fullest but it is equipped with barbecues and pools and very conveniently set up. I think I could stay there at easily for a week.

A lovely stay in Tahiti

Our family of four spent 2 nights at this delightful villa amazingly well located with its own private entry at popular Vaiava Beach. The modern kitchen, infinity pool, and upright piano were the highlights of this home's popular amenities. Host was also warm and responsive. A great stay!

Beautiful bungalow and infinity pool overlooking one of the best public beaches on the mainland. Looks just like the pictures, some bedrooms are small. Just what we needed for a quick stay on the mainland.

Amazing Ocean Front Pool Home

Wow—Beautiful views of Blue Lagoon and of Moorea. Better snorkeling than Mooera. So many different species of fish. There is a snorkel Trail right in front of the property. Love the pool and direct access to the Ocean. AC works great. Kitchen is well stocked and newer. The host Henri was very accommodating and even allowed a late checkout. Stay here over resort!

Unbelievably Great Experience

The snorkeling is literally right there and it's world class! An incredibly variety of healthy coral, tons of fish, rays, and more. I even saw a Lion fish! The indoor/outdoor setup is perfect. You can lounge in perfect privacy watching the sunset over Moorea, take a dip in the pool, and grill fresh fish to your hearts content. The kitchen opens up to the outdoors. Communication and getting to the house and ease of check-in could not have been better. LOVED this property. The interior is a little dated and not as luxurious as the exterior... but it had everything and was quite functional. Frankly, if you're spending a lot of time indoors in Tahiti, you're doing it wrong. There's A/C in the bedrooms but we didn't bother with it as the house was quite cool and pleasant just from the breezes. Great area with plenty of local grocery stores and etc.

The pool, outdoor areas, view of Moorea, common areas and location were fantastic and you could snorkel and paddleboard from the house. However, I think this listing should be modified because they rent the house with two separate listings and it was super confusing that the option is with or without the master bedroom, not just one less bedroom or bed. The master bedroom was locked which left us one shower for five people and a half bath. Of the three bedrooms that were unlocked, one was the size of a master closet with a twin bed and had no air conditioning. It was not usable to sleep for anyone larger than a toddler, including our almost 6 foot teenagers or at those temps. One of the two bedrooms that were unlocked had an extra Murphy bed so at least two of our teenage sons could share a bed, but it was not our plan to share a bedroom with our children when paying for a romantic Tahitian beach house vacation. The house needed updating which looked to be underway. The bedroom area floors had outdoor temporary carpeting cut to fit.Kitchen was well appointed with needs for cooking and even entertaining. Bring Nespresso pods.Overall, beautiful property but really needs to modify listing for straightforwardness of what the options are for the different listings. We would have happily paid for another usable bedroom to fit our family, had we understood the listing we chose had no master and we would be crammed in two bedrooms, not at all the quality as rest of home.

Location is great but it is not what we were expecting for this price. The house is very dated and needs a major clean. 1. No info on appliances or internet 2. No local info 3. Warm water is intermediate and to shower you have to hold the shower handle. The best shower is actually by the beach access 4. Pool is cleaned daily by the pool guy but we were surprised as it was not announced. 5. No paper towels in the kitchen 6. House lock was not working correctly so sometimes left open, still secured by the huge access gate though 7. Toilet kept running for hrs, no way to stop and water was coming up in the toilet sink 8. Most of the beach gear is filthy and we cleaned to be able to use 9. There is no 3rd bathroom as mentioned in the advertisement 10. Bedroom carpets are worn and smell just old These were just a small list of the many issues. We did not contact the owner as it was Christmas but we would never return nor recommend Henri communicated well and his directions to the house were very clear.
