Great relaxed but professional atmosphere. Philippe's dinners are a must. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Greeted with ice cold coconut, a warm smile and dry humor on arrival. Philippe speaks English very well. Each bungalow has a covered veranda with seating and hammock. Large mini fridge with instant coffee and tea, kettle and 1 liter bottled water complementary. Well designed restroom in the round with a walk in shower. A double bed and day bed per room each with mosquito nets. Easy to find with detailed directions as French Polynesia doesn't have building numbers. Pier on the beach steps from the bungalows. Kayaks, snorkels to lend. Property maintained daily as a lush garden. Multi-lingual library boardgames/puzzles and backgammon. Free WiFi for guests only. Rescue dog, named "Paopao" after the nearby town where he was found, is very friendly and well trained.
2 things to be aware of: no screens on windows or doors and only a small bar of tiare soap provided. So bug spray recommended at all times, mosquito net is necessary, and bring your body care items with you.
