Very helpful in allowing us early entry after an early morning arrival in Papeete. We were able to wait around the pool area, in the shade, until our room was ready, before the normal,11 am check in time. No problem either with a 5am check out.

Everyone was so friendly ! The room was spacious, clean, had a mini fridge and table outside ! The staff was so loving and helpful! We 24 hours convenience store next door that saved us on a late flight ! Conveniently located walkable to many places! The only down is the roosters are 4 am... but they were all over the island so I guess that's a Tahiti thing! Highly reccomend

Affordable stay in the paradise.
It was just wonderful, walk across the street and you are on one of the nicest beach. Gated security for the cars too, lockbox for money and passports, nice garden and pool. The roosters come around 5.00 am. Good aircon, internet was ok most of the time, some shaky signals a few times.

Great little motel
A great little motel close to the airport; very convenient for a late night arrival. We were met at the gate by a very sweet lady (sorry, I don't recall her name) & found the rooms to be quite adequate for a one night stay.

A perfect spot for a night or a week in Tahiti. Tastefully furbished cottages with full kitchens. Free daily breakfast and salt water pool. This location is directly across the street from the beach and next door to a convenience mart / gas station. A very good spot for families on a budget .
