“Perfect”

The staff at Raiatea Lodge are so beautiful and made our last stop in Polynesia even more beautiful. Location and cleanliness were perfect. Delicious food and drinks, beautiful pontoon to swim and snorkel from right outside. Would highly recommend and hope to come back some day.

The room was large and clean, stylishly decorated, and with a great view of the sea from the balcony. There is no beach as such, but the area in front of the hotel has good snorkeling/ swimming, and I especially liked the (free) kayak hires from the pontoon.

“An unassuming gem on a laid back island.”

Half board is included with the price. The breakfast was continental but had bacon and sausages and boiled eggs as well with jams like papaya, banana or pineapple, made in house, on french bread. The dinners were impressive as well, where you had to choose either a starter and a main or main and dessert. It was outstanding! We hired a car from the hotel and drove the ring road around the island which was easily done in a day with stops along the way. We stopped at Opoa Beach Restaurant for lunch which did not disappoint - the view from the restaurant of the palm trees and ocean was also beautiful

“Magnífica”

A 10 out of 10 hotel. They knew it was our honeymoon and had several special touches ready for our arrival. The hotel has everything you need and the staff is incredibly attentive (special thanks to Elodie and Kohai). They also help you with any excursions you’d like to do. If we come back to Raiatea, we’ll definitely stay here again!

The staff are genuinely kind and helpful. The hotel is very comfortable with understated elegance

Everything was just wonderful

“Excellent staff, facilities and food.”

“Outstanding small Hotel with exceptional food and service”

There really aren’t enough superlatives to describe our stay at Hotel Raiatea Lodge. Everyone on staff is delightful and goes out of their way to accommodate any requests. We stayed in room #8 in the main lodge. The room was spacious with a very comfortable bed and an incredible view from our balcony. The sunsets are spectacular every day. The food is outstanding and beautifully presented. We are vegetarian which the chef accommodated with delicious dishes every evening. The desserts are fantastic and the breakfast buffet is plentiful with freshly baked goods, delicious home made yogurts, cheeses, cold buts, fruit etc. The hotel offers a number of fabulous excursions through local operators which we took advantage of. They include being picked up and dropped off at the hotel which makes it all very convenient. The operators are paid directly in cash and there are several ATM’s in town so that wasn’t a problem. There is also great snorkeling right in front of the hotel. Kayaks are available to go to the Motu (15-20min.) which was a lot of fun. Car rental is also available right on site and charged directly to your room. Cars have a manual transmission and all in great shape. We rented one to drive around the island which was fun. Overall our stay at Hotel Raiatea Lodge exceeded our expectations and we will definitely return.

Breakfast and dinners were amazing. Staff were very friendly. Lovely location.

“Was ok”

Nice swimming pool. Possibility to use the canoes and go to a local motu nice for snorkeling. The food is nice, fine dinning style.

“AMAZING PLACE”

Loved everything but in particular: 1) the staff went above and beyond in being helpful and always with a smile 2) the food, out of the ordinary, you would expect to eat this type of food in a Michelin star restaurant 3)the swimming pool was amazing, always clean and never too busy Could not recommend this place enough!

The room was spacious and clean. The food was very good.

“A huge disappointment not worth the money!”

The location.
