Private beach was our favorite part of the trip!

We loved the private beach. This was our daughter's favorite part of the trip. There are other people who have access to the beach as well as you are in a neighborhood of Arue but compared to the public beaches you have a piece of paradise all to yourself. We also enjoyed all the animal life (giant snails, crabs, birds and one day we even saw a sea otter swimming near us). The neighbors do have dogs (and there are a lot of dogs in Tahiti) but they did not bother us. The rental van was a must for us. It enables you to go to the local markets, grocery stores, restaurants, and visit the island. We only booked one tour on viator which was snorkeling (and technically you can do that in the private beach area), but we are not experienced and wanted a guide to take us into one of the lagoon areas around the island. Our primary purpose for booking a Vrbo over the resort was the private beach and having access to a rental vehicle that would allow us to explore independently. There are a lot of bugs (it is a tropical island), so bring bug spray and anti-itch cream. The hosts were very respectful of personal space and we only saw them a couple of times during our stay and for the pick up and drop off at the airport. We wanted to experience life as the Tahitians do and so that is what you will get with this beach house which is among the locals who are extremely gracious and friendly.

when we arrived at 12:30 at night, there was NO KEY in the lockbox. My husband climbed over fence and eventually the owner that lived upstairs (NOT NOTED ON THE BOOKING INFO) finally woke up and let us in... apparently her son had taken the key! NOT COOL!! House was great. Great glass beach!

A hidden paradise in Ārue

Our host Lovina was so nice and accommodating. She was very responsive to any questions or concerns we had. She made us feel right at home. The property is right on a magnificent black sand beach that has wonderful snorkeling and kayaking or paddle boarding. Lovina provided us with all the equipment we need to do everything on the beach. You can also borrow her snorkeling gear and mats for the beach if you plan to go to other beaches (which we did). The property is conveniently located near the airport and to Papeete. It is just a short drive away from those areas. There are local food trucks that are open nearby and also an Easy Market where you can buy all the supplies you need if you choose to eat at this beautiful Property. The highlight of staying here was eating a meal and gazing upon the gorgeous ocean view from the backyard. We used the bbq grill to make steak and shrimp one night and it was so awesome. The snorkeling here at their beach is really good. Plenty of coral where fish hang out. The locals like this beach as a hidden gem. We would stay here again. It is a paradise! Thank you Lovina for letting us stay at your magnificent property. We hope to see you again!

Quiet beach house

Nice little place, close to the beach but not so close to the town of Papeete unfortunately so you'll need a car or cash for taxis. Great if you want a few days to get away from it all though :) Lovina is a friendly and helpful hostess. Some things were not working during our stay, hopefully these get rectified for others. We're happy with the few days we stayed here.

Wonderful Experience!

We really enjoyed our stay with Lovina and her family. It was just what we needed to acclimate us to the pleasures of Tahiti before we set sail on the Aranui. There were four adults so each couple was able to enjoy their on Kingsize bed and private bath. The house was well equipped and Lovina provided transportation on arrival and departure. We did have a small problem connecting on arrival at the airport due to lack of internet but it wasn’t anything major. I would definitely recommend her place and we appreciated her dog, Pepsi, making us feel right at home!

A piece of paradise

Beautiful property. Tranquil setting. A great spot from which to explore the island. Our greatest challenge was finding the location in the pouring rain. We went by the gate at least 6 times. A sign at the gate would have been appreciated. Although we were hours late and had no cell service to communicate with the host, the housekeeper was waiting for us with a smile. For that we were extremely relieved and grateful. You won’t be disappointed with this rental property.

The property was lovely, especially its location to the ocean. Two things that need to be addressed. 1) windows in the bathroom do not have screens and were open upon our arrival. The house was full of mosquitoes. 2) While the bathrooms were renovated and very beautiful, the kitchen is extremely outdated. The oven had to be lit from inside and had no settings for temperature. This was explained by the housekeeper after trying to figure it out ourselves.

The Arue beach house was a great place to start our Tahiti adventure. Lovina showed us places and tricks of the local life in Tahiti that we would have never experienced if we had stayed at a resort.

The kithchen was well stock and we used it for breakfasts and dinner preparation. It had great direct access to the beach - walking and snorkeling. The air conditioning in each bedroom was excellent. The hosts were excellent to get us settled and were immediately available to help or answer questions. I would definitely stay and recommend this property.

A Taste of Living Like the Locals

As always, we had a great time visiting the beautiful land of Tahiti. Instead of a resort on Bora Bora or Moorea, we ended our stay at this beachfront property and it was the perfect way to end our trip. Our host (Lovina) was truly amazing. She let us drop our bags a few hours before our official check-in time and even let us hang out (out of the way, of course) while they prepped for our arrival. When it was time to check out, once again, she was incredibly accommodating. She coordinated to have someone give us a private 5-hour tour of the island on our last day so we could stay out of her hair while she prepped for the next guests and she was thoughtful enough to keep one bathroom open for us after our tour. She also dropped us at a dinner location on the last night and later took us to the airport. On the first day, she brought us a beautiful platter of fruit grown right on her property, which, incidentally sits right on a black sand beach with a great view. The house itself is nothing fancy but it really does give you the sense that you're staying in a typical Tahitian family home (as opposed to the more upscale places like the one we were previously in). The kitchen was very basic but met our needs. The bedrooms and baths were fine. We spent most of the time hanging out in the covered backyard patio. We even managed to get in a few games of pool. Hard to beat the setting for that one! The location was great and the James Norman Hall museum (almost directly across the street) is a fascinating place with a surprisingly good restaurant, staffed with typically friendly Tahitians who know how to take care of hungry tourists. All in all, it was a thoroughly enjoyable experience that we'd highly recommend.

Beautiful and so helpful

Our host Tepiu (who also goes by Lovina) and her husband Wilfred were excellent hosts. She communicated with us beforehand to recommend tours and give us directions. We got lost on the way to her house (because our phone service wasn't working) and so she came and led us to her house. The property is just as described and seen in the pictures. The beach is steps from the house and very quiet. Their dog, Pepsi is so sweet and such a good companion. She loved walking along the beach with me. Tepiu got us a "locals" deal on the Albert Lagoon tour. If you want to go on that tour, ask her to book it for you and will save. The kitchen has everything you need for cooking. The fridge and freezer are full sized so there is plenty of space. The air conditioners are in each bedroom and work great. The paddleboard, kayaks, and snorkeling gear are convenient. The whole back door/window slides open so you have an uninterrupted view and breeze from the ocean. We really got a true island living experience.
