Guest reviews for Fare Tapu
"Wonderful place to stay for a few days or longer on Raiatea. The unit looks new and is super comfortable. Air con works great and the shower is large. Kitchen comes with quite a few pots/pans if you’re going to cook. Big Carrefour for groceries in Uturoa. There are restaurants within a few minutes with a car. Nathalie is a super sweet host and helpful but she does not speak much English, no worries with a translate app. She has a pool on site but we didn’t use it. The washing machine was really nice to have. Thanks Nathalie for the great stay and souvenirs!"

"The hostess went above and beyond. I would give more than a 10 if I could. The hostess was friendly and generous with her time. She provided lots of small extras (tea, coffee, water…)"
"Aucun."
"Natalie was very helpful and the little apartment was very well outfitted with everything we needed. Loved the privacy and having our own washing machine. Separate bedroom with door allowed for the early riser to make coffee and breakfast in the kitchen without disturbing the other. Natalie was a willing traffic cop to help us back out of the driveway!"
"Minor complaint, but the only outlet on one side of the bed was taken up by the A/C; it would have been nice to have a place on that side to charge a phone. Bathroom lacks a door."
"We had such a great stay at Fare Tapu! The hosts are amazing, they think about a lot of little details that make your stay memorable. The room was very clean, nicely decorated and had a beautiful pool view. We would love to stay here again. Thank you for your hospitality!"

"The owners were really sweet and always willing to help."
"You probably want a car, scooter or bike to go places. We were happy we had one."
"We had the pleasure of staying at Fare Tapu for three nights and absolutely loved our time there. From the moment we arrived, we were warmly welcomed by the lovely hosts who made us feel right at home. Our room was beautiful, featuring a private bathroom, a charming balcony, and a lovely view overlooking the swimming pool. After days spent exploring the island, the pool was the perfect spot to relax and unwind. Fare Tapu offered the perfect blend of comfort, tranquility, and genuine warmth. We would love to come back and stay again — highly recommended!"

"Had a pool, area was quiet, and the accommodation had an aircon. The owners were super friendly albeit we communicated largely via Google translate - we enjoyed our stay. Unrelated to the property, unfortunately Raiatea does not have many beach areas. Esland bikes were great for a bike hire - highly recommended!!"
"It was a bit far from food outlets/supermarkets. Otherwise a good place to rest up for a couple of nights."
"Everything. The room was so clean, nicely decorated, excellent AC, bathroom, kitchen, high ceilings and amenities. The hosts were responsive and friendly. There was a gate and parking for my rental car, and the location was close to the airport and town so it was perfect!"
"I really can't think of anything, I was really happy with my stay!"
"Loved everything about the stay! The location, the hosts, the room! Couldn’t have been better!"
"Aucun."
"We have had the warmest Polynesian welcome from Tapu and his lovely family. They were very attentive and made sure that we were comfortable and had everything we needed at any time. We also got very good recommendations for activities and restaurants. The accommodation is super clean, modern and with many details and there is a parking on the property. Very safe and beautiful place to stay. We are looking forward to come back one day! Mauruuru roa!"

Jeffrey Torea Lodge Beachfront House
"Le studio est magnifique, on se sent seul dans la montagne avec pleins d'animaux. Marcus le chat est une très bonne compagnie. Heimana et Wendy sont très disponibles et aux petits soins tout en laissant l'espace nécessaire. L'emplacement est magnifique et on se sent tout de suite chez sois."
