Great beach location

We stayed here on the first leg of our visit to Tahiti so were just getting oriented. Great location for hikes and activities to the south in particular.Best part is the location along a beautiful beach with fantastic snorkeling and sand. The pool is huge which our kids loved but we spent most of the time at the beach. You can just walk out and snorkel. Amazing!The unit is a good size and the large deck was wonderful for relaxing and meals. Kitchen has necessary supplies. We had trouble figuring out the TVs a bit, but maybe that was us!Laundry is small and dryer didn't work very well but we could line dry so it was fine. Towels are provided which is good. Bring toiletries otherwise. Pool noodles were great for our daughter to use snorkeling.Seems like most of the units in the building are full time residents or empty. A few were a little shabby on the end near the beach, but didnt really impact our experience.We had a confusing checkin. Follow the instructions exactly. Once we figured it all out it was clear but we arrived after our flight in the dark and had trouble finding our unit. We were able to reach out to property management for help and they were immediately responsive to assist so it all worked out!

Way better than expected.

Absolutely wonderful place and setting. Private, quiet, steps to the beach. Beautiful was pool and the beach is even better. Loved our stay and will come back! Snorkeling on one of most preserved reefs I've ever seen. And I've been all over the world.

Et en suite le calme, les oiseaux et le bruit de l’eau (la piscine) qui coule très reposant. La plage est très agréable . Séjour PARFAIT
