A gem within a gem.
We stayed at this amazing property for 8 days and would highly recommend it to anyone looking to enjoy an authentic, comfortable and unique Polynesian experience.
The House
This property was built with love and to last. It really shows in the quality of materials, construction, furniture, garden etc. It was not only spotless on arrival, but had beautiful/fragrant flower arrangements throughout the home - something I would expect from a 5-star hotel, not a vacation rental. The kitchen is huge and set up for people that love to cook (which we did a lot, since the home is isolated from restaurants and such). The garden is meticulously kept by Teiki and has many fruit (coconut, papaya, guava, tamarind, mango). House is well stoked with towels and everything you need for a comfortable stay. AC works well, but it was great to have screen doors to guard against mosquitos, while enjoying the fresh Polynesian air.
The Location
Taha'a is one of the less well-known islands in FP and it's probably better this way. We had a tour of the island and, while there are many beautiful areas, this one is (with a view of Bora Bora and Raiatea) was one of the best according to our guide. It sits on 30 acres of private land and has one of the few beaches on the island. Good snorkeling is right outside the house, but you can also kayak to the reef or other bays. We rented a car for a day to do some shopping and go out for lunch, but were otherwise happy to stay and enjoy the isolation of the beautiful property.
The Hospitality
We didn't get a chance to meet the owners, but were greeted by their friend - Richard - an American who has been living in Tahaa for 40 years. Aside from interesting conversation, he provided us with great advise about activities on the island and was available to help with anything we needed. Having this kind of help made our stay even more special.
All in all, one of best rentals we've ever stated in.
