“Incredible staff!!!”

“SIMPLY AMAZING”

EVERYTHING :) It is a bit on the expensive side, but still far from OWB prices. And basically you get one of the most wonderful beaches and snorkel-spots you can imagine. Rooms are tidy, wonderful, and it indeed feels like a Garden of Eden, or a Village. We walked by foot from the ferry - 2 minutes walk on the shore. Shops, foodtrucks nearby - the restaurant is second-to-none. Stuff are not just friendly, but incredibly funny, in a good way. We celebrated my birthday night here - I will never ever forget it :)

“Best hospitality and sunsets in French Polynesia.”

My stay at Maitai Lapita was an absolute highlight of my French Polynesia trip. The hotel and bungalows are beautiful and have a very authentic feeling to them. The little beach and restaurant have the best views of sunset over Raiatea and breakfast was great. What made is most amazing was the extremely hospitable staff, especially Vaea, who was extremely helpful and organized very special activities for me. Her kindness and warmth will stay in my memory and I would love to come back one day :)

“Great but some points to focus on”

Environmental and decoration

Everything was great

“Nice resort”

Besides the food, everything

“Lovely peaceful resort”

Such a beautiful location with bungalows on the lake edge. The resort was well spaced so was quiet and peaceful . The small beach and pool were great. The staff were very friendly and helpful. My partner is coeliac and needed gluten free meals which the staff were very thoughtful about supplying. Meals were excellent with plenty of variety. I would definitely stay here again if we get the chance to return to Huahine

“Beautiful groomed placed, very expensive for what you get.”

The room was very expensive and breakfast was not included. Theycharged $35 pp for breakfast do we passed

“A wonderful resort on a wonderful island! Loved it!”

Breakfast was excellent. Good choice nicely presented. Location fantastic. Very relaxed atmosphere.Staff very friendly and helpful. Very sustainable - care about their enviroment. Easy walk to the village. Beautiful island please look after it and don't let anyone spoil it!

“relaxing… island is beautiful”

spacious bungalows over lake - nice views of lake - access to sandy beach which was deep enough to swim

“Beautiful bungalow but aging infrastructure, dreamlike blue sea, close to amazing supermarket,”

Upon arriving the very first day, we got a really nice flower lei and a glass of refreshing fruit juice, which was a nice touch, and the lady receptionist was friendly. We saw several times during our stay and she was always very professional and pleasant. We also arranged an excursion by boat with Huahine Nautique through the reception and had a fantastic time! The location of the hotel itself is amazing. Just a few minutes ride from the airport, with access to food trucks, restaurants and, most importantly, a big supermarket just a few minutes walk away through the beach or even the road, although the beach walk is much nicer and quicker. The white sandy beach is beautiful but what really made me go 'wow!' was the sea just off the beach. A blue I've rarely seen so close to the beach itself. Blindingly beautiful! Because of the hotel's proximity to the supermarket, we ended up never having to eat at the hotel restaurant. The bedroom has a coffee making facility with a water boiler, instant coffee, tea and sugar, which we used to make coffee in the morning. As for the supermarket, it has a hot food section near the entrance with sandwiches (the chicken and fries baguette is so good!) and other hot food options. Sundays are especially good for trying out firi firis, the Tahitian version of fried donuts made with coconut milk. Delicious! Aside from the hot food section, it has everything else you might need, from Australian cookies, to French imported canned goods and Tahitian monoi, pareu, yogurt, and much, much more. No review can do this supermarket justice. It's an experience in and of itself. Back to the hotel, although our bungalow was amazing, with the biggest bathroom sink I'd ever seen, a rain and massage shower installation, we almost thought the bungalow was haunted when we pstarted hearing like an old man's voice coming out of the wall behind the desk where the coffee making facility is.

“Must to be renovated”

Nature around, lake, fishes, really natural nature.

“Great stay!”

I loved the location, the staff were very attentive and the design of the lake villas. We very much enjoyed our time there!
