Magical Tahiti!
This is a perfectly magical place to stay and enjoy the beautiful island of Tahiti. Frederiq and Elizabeth were gracious hosts. The view of sunset from our little "living room" was breathtaking! Definitely a repeat if I am ever fortunate enough to return to Tahiti. Thank you for such wonderful stay!

Comfortable, amazing view, and a pool-perfect!
We are two couples traveling together, and this was the perfect place for us. It's in a great location, with everything we needed. We loved the outdoor kitchen and dining area, the comfortable beds, and the amazing view of Mo'orea from the deck and the pool. It was just as pictured in the photos. Our host Frederic was very helpful with suggestions, and he even shared bananas from his garden with us! We will surely stay here again when we return to Tahiti.

Frederic was an amazing host with a beautiful property!
We had a wonderful time at Frederic’s property on Tahiti. The property was beautiful, clean, and had everything we needed. The view of Moorea is incredible and the surrounding area is private and peaceful. Frederic was also an incredible host. He was very nice, friendly, and helpful, and always made sure we had everything we needed. He also went above and beyond to drive to meet us when we got lost and also provided us with a full sheet of recommendations for our next stay in Moorea. A huge plus was Frederic’s very friendly and cute dog that we got to spend time with. Would absolutely recommend this property to anyone. Thank you, Fred! We hope to be back soon.

Amazing location!
Frederick is so welcoming, kind and patient. The first night we couldn’t find his house, however with a call to him he was quick to our rescue. From then on there were no more bumps in the road. After our days of sightseeing, we enjoyed watching the sunset from his beautiful bungalow & cooling off in the sparkling pool. I highly recommend staying here!

Māuruuru to Elisabeth and Frederic
We really enjoyed our stay! The bungalow was attractive and comfortable, and we had fun using the pool and interacting with the pets. Elisabeth was sweet and accommodating, providing great suggestions for activities and dining. (When we had trouble finding the place at night, she even came down the hill and guided us.) The view is gorgeous and the property has lots of beautiful flowers and other lush landscaping. It is definitely requires a car to access and the neighborhood feels removed...which can either be good or bad, depending on what you are seeking. We certainly recommend these accommodations to other traveling families!

Property Owner is Fantastic to Work
We had to cancel and move our reservation 4 times over 2 years because of covid. Frederic hung in there with us and each time, helped us reschedule and we finally made the trip. He is very helpful and even helped us when our rental car had issues - he called Eurocar directly for us and spoke to them about the issue. They came out with a new car the next day. The property has a fantastic view of Moorea, unobstructed. The area is in a great location. The property does not have air conditioning or a TV which is not a big deal to us, we needed neither. Frederic made all the difference in our stay. He is a fantastic host.

Beautiful Views!
We had such a wonderful time staying at this cute bungalow. It is only a few minutes drive from the main city Papeete. The bungalow is adjacent to the main home. It was clean and we loved sitting out on the patio where the views are amazing. It is the perfect setting for watching the sunset. Frederick the host was so welcoming and helpful. He was so willing to give recommendations of restaurants and sights. Even after our stay concluded he was still extremely helpful with advice for our travels to a separate island in French Polynesia. We would definitely stay here again.

Puna'auia the place to be
Booking online and communication with the owner was very easy. Directions to the property were excellent. There are two very friendly dogs and a cat. Puna'auia is a great place to stay only a few kilometers from the city and airport. Nearby there are great restaurants, a big supermarket and there is a 24 hour petrol station just at the bottom of the hill for everything you may need. Frederic is an excellent host and speaks English very well. He has great suggestions about where to go and what to see. This property has lovely views over to Moorea and we loved the views, the sunsets and the pool.

Lovely hosts and a great choice of location for Tahiti Nui
A great location and close to the nice snorkelling beaches of Puna'auia. Always a bit nervous about staying at a hosted property, but this worked really well. Fred & Elizabeth were lovely and the bungalow is really it's own space. Highly recommended!

Nice Short stay
Stayed here for 2 nights as a Family of 4. Frederic was easy to get a hold of to get directions to his place. He is also like your own concierge offering suggestions of what to do and where to go. Its exactly like it looks like in the pictures. It was great and affordable for 2 nights. The beds and pillows weren't the best for longer stays. The location offers great views up a winding hill. You really need a car here to access lots of restaurants and grocery stores within about 2km. I would stay here again.

Very nice bungalow
The property matched our expectations based on the description and photos on the website. It worked well for two couples for a few days. The location had a great view and was close to the PPT airport, the town of Punaauia, shopping and restaurants. The hosts were friendly and greeted us when we arrived.

Lovely bungalow & pool overlooking Moorea
We enjoyed this comfortable location high in the hills above Punavai Plains & excursions along the west coast. There's surprisingly decent snorkeling off PK 18 & Manava Beach (public parks). Hosts take care to give you absolute privacy - very considerate. 3 pets in the household so best if you are an animal-lover! Also, if you are renting a car, consider an automatic as the steep access road is challenging with a standard transmission. Otherwise, highly recommend this lovely place. Merci beaucoup Frederic & Elizabeth!

Post-cruise bungalow with a fantastic view
Four occupants stayed four days following a cruise. A bit tight but the rental fit our needs and my wallet. Located away from the city (say a 15 min drive) yet close to the beach, shopping, French bakery (sooooo good). Car needed to access to the home. Owners on property (Frederic and Elisabeth) were tremendously helpful acquainting us to the area, suggesting activities, restaurants and excursions. The pics speak for the view, the island looming in the distance as seen from the pool deck. The pool provides relief from the heat and humidity. These are not five-star hotel digs, but this comfortable place was all we needed to enjoy a few more days on this lovely island. A few hints- Rental car- EcoCar, just off airport, easy to work with- delivered car to cruise area, dropped me at airport. Electrical plugs- European. Bring adapters. Cell service expensive! Turn off cell data the entire time you are here. Free WiFi on property.
