I made an incredibly good choice when I selected to stay at this wonderful guesthouse. The room had all the amenities I could ask for and the owners were incredibly helpful. The dinner with the owners and other guests was an absolute treat. Their chef Tom has incredible talent. I highly recommend Maison Taina as a great way to experience Tahiti from a local’s viewpoint. The stay surpassed any of my expectations and I’ll be staying there again soon!

The uniqueness of this place comes from both owners, Valerie & Laurent. When you arrive from a long trip, you just feel at home. The view is marvelous, the breakfast is almost a brunch with fresh fruits and local bread, eggs & jams. The design of the bedrooms has been thought with taste and are spacious. Not too many guests so you really feel (and they make you feel!) part of their family! I highly recommend this hidden gem just a little bit further than Papeete but it worth it, really.

I had a really lovely stay at Maison Taina. It was a true guesthouse experience. The room was comfortable and the outdoor area was perfect for a little dip and relaxation. Felt great to return every night and have a wonderful meal cooked by Tom and conversation with the other guests. Hope to return soon.

Valerie and Laurent have transformed this home to a gem. The decor is tasteful, the rooms are spacious and bright, the fixtures and wallpaper makes you feel like you should when on an island vacation. The water is hot, the A/C is cold, and the wifi works mostly great. The hosts are truly like family, they open up themselves to their guests without hesitation. Tom is a hidden gem himself - young, mature, and extremely talented in the kitchen. He created dishes that I had never even heard of, and the result is phenomenal. The entire family is amazing, and a part of the Tahiti attraction! A few things to note when making your booking: the house is up in the hills and away from town, and you will not make it without a car; the house is up in higher elevation with great views of the ocean in the distance if you are on the second floor; this is a quiet residential neighborhood - that said, you will hear the roosters and cats (if they're in heat), so don't go unprepared: bring ear plugs if you're a light sleeper. I am generally a light sleeper, but honestly those roosters failed to bother me the second night onwards. I enjoyed my stay immensely as a solo traveler, and would highly recommend this booking.
