"Incredible property on a private island. The service was fantastic, the food was great and the location is right next to the Coral Garden so easy to snorkel and see amazing fish. The rooms we stayed in had a private beach and a private pool. "

"This place is beautiful. The sounds of the birds the beauty of the plants, the view from the bungalow, all excellent. I like being in nature and this was like being in nature while still having comforts of home. The bathroom itself was gorgeous with a skylight, lava rock and plants. The man squiring net around the bed really works well. The owners took us on a boating trip to snorkel and it was divine. All very restful."

"This is a great place to stay on Raiatea with its own little beach. We liked the open concept and the property management is very accommodating. The beach isn’t the best for swimming due to lots of coral but we did enjoy kayaking to the nearby Motu where more swimming possibilities exist. The nearby restaurant that you can walk to, Fish & Blue, is a real treat. "

"From the time we arrived, until we left, our stay was extraordinary! The front desk staff was very accommodating with arranging trips and transportation. We were happy to have opted for the half board meal plan which provided a well done selection of meals. I would highly recommend the Raiatea Lodge Hotel."

"New property, there are three separate lodge houses. It's on the main road that circles the island. My house had a full size frig, 4 burner gas stove, microwave, full sink, cable channel TV, strong wifi, ceiling fan in the living room, nice bathroom and AC in the bedroom. It's around 5 miles from Uturoa, past the airport. So, you need to rent a car or scooter. There is a small car and scooter rental place three minute walk from the lodges. Called Havaii Rent. Small sign in front of their driveway. Elderly couple own it. "

"A unique island experience! Highly recommend!"

"Mauruuru roa to all of you!"

"We stayed last minute at the property and it turned out being a great choice. It was central to downtown and an easy walk to most everything. The owners are great and the room itself was exactly what we needed. "

"We had an excellent stay here during our time on Taha’a! The owner is very nice and takes time to help organize anything for your stay. They have a restaurant on site that provides breakfast (fruit, breads, coffee) and dinner (3-course meal with prepared local fish dishes) for an extra charge. The dinners were very good, you can head up the restaurant early for a cocktail and live music on Fridays. There is a dock right out front where you can snorkel - we saw tons of different fish, coral, and an 8’ manta ray! Teiho is on site and will help organize anything you need (scooters, taxis, tours, etc) and is very helpful! They let us store our luggage while we waited for the ferry to Bora Bora. The accommodations have everything needed, but could use some updates and some TLC. Even still, my husband and I agreed that we would absolutely return because of the amazing team and location!"
