"This was the highlight of our bucket-list trip to French Polynesia: three nights in paradise; and it delivered. We aren't accustomed to such a high end experience, so this was an unforgettable and amazing time. The resort grounds and buildings are immaculate, beautifull, and very well-maintained; despite it being the high season, the large footprint of the resort makes for a very tranquil and private stay. The sunset bungalow was spacious and luxurious; and we saw a large variety of fish, including a lemon shark, right from the walkway to our room. There was easy access to kayaks and paddleboards, although they are located on a windy point that makes entry slightly challenging for older guests due to small waves in the lagoon. But the lagoon is clear, warm, and shallow; quite inviting even for a nonbouyant person like myself! We did the drift snorkelling through the coral garden three times and could have done it many more times if we had the time and energy! We also arranged a half day tour of Taha'a (Fenua Safari) thru the concierge; it was very interesting to catch a glimpse of everyday life in this amazing place, and quite interesting to learn about the production of pearls and vanilla. The breakfast buffet was quite generous, so we never needed to stop for lunch. Three days flew by, but it was just enough to have the time of our lives."

The food exceeded our expectations. Every meal was delicious, with fresh ingredients and great variety.
What made our stay even more special was the staff. Everyone was incredibly friendly, welcoming, and always happy to help. Their warm hospitality made us feel truly relaxed and well taken care of.
We had a wonderful experience and would definitely love to come back in the future. Highly recommended!"

"There is not a negative thing to say about this resort. Room, services, staffs, facilities, foods, everything is wonderful. I enjoy every minute when I staying here."
"Living area was spotless. The neighbors, which were charming, helped us get in. Location was excellent with a diving shop nearby. It was truly comfortable."
"Corrine and Frédéric were excellent host! They helped to facilitate our transit to and from the island, advised on and booked our excursions and answered all of our cultural and tourism related questions. Corrine is a superb and elegant chef. Every night we enjoyed Michelin star three course dinners with lovely company. Frédéric infuses the best.rums on the island, all with Tahitian vanilla, and various other fruits from the property. Every morning, a gourmet breakfast was delivered to our bungalow. If you want a five star hotel experience at a fraction of the cost with congenial company, look no further than there pension Titaina."
