We stayed last minute at the property and it turned out being a great choice. It was central to downtown and an easy walk to most everything. The owners are great and the room itself was exactly what we needed.

Great Location

Great location with friendly hosts, conveniently located close to town, and free kayaks to explore the area with. The host arranged a 50cc scooter rental with pick-up service by the rental company at the lodge.

Well stocked kitchen, shared bathroom was spacious and very clean. No AC, but always a nice breeze and ceiling fan was all you needed. The pool was a great place to chill. Perfect location just outside of town and our host was very helpful. Recommend renting a car best price for getting around.

This is a nice option for a brief stay. There was a corner store with good selections, a small kitchen and a great restaurant a 5 minute walk down the road. The host is quite helpful if a taxi is needed or for any information. The drawback is no air conditioning and barking dogs.

Don’t Go Here!

Not a hotel, a backyard room in some terrible neighborhood. Wanted to leave before check in but no where to go. I would take this off your list. If I ever get a place like this from you It will be our last!!!

This accommodation is a private room adjacent to the owner’s home. The location is excellent for exploring Raiatea and joining local tours. A good small grocery store is just steps away, and a large Carrefour in town is within biking distance. The room is comfortable, and the bathroom feels new, clean, and fresh. Outside, there is a seating area with chairs, a table, and patio umbrellas, offering views of the lush green mountains. A few friendly and adorable dogs stop by from time to time, adding to the friendly atmosphere. Bikes are available and suitable for short trips. The outdoor kitchen is shared with the other guest room and offers plenty of refrigerator space. While functional, the kitchen could be a bit cleaner and some utensils would benefit from an upgrade. Overall, this place exceeded my expectations and is likely one of the best budget-friendly options close to town (Uturoa).

2/10 Terrible

This review is NOT based on any stay at this lodge. I had to cancel one week before arrival due to the explosive rise in Delta variant COVID infections. The owner refused any refund, not even meeting me half way. I realize COVID affects businesses as well as tourists, still, this lack of flexibility and generosity is appalling.

Te Ava Piti Lodge, Raiatea

Die Besitzerin war auf Urlaub und deswegen eine Stellvertreterin hat den Lodge aufbewahrt, die freundlich aber nicht immer zuhause war. Das Zimmer war im Haus der Besitzerin integriert und zum Badezimmer kommen musste ich ins Haus treten. Eine externe Küche steht zur Verfügung (keine Frühstück ist angeboten) aber die man nur von ausserhalb des Hauses erreichen. Das Schlafzimmer war komfortabel genug aber hat keine funktionierende Steckdosen. Auch etwas zu beachten ist der Wachhund, der sehr freundlich ist aber auch sehr gross (der hat mir fast durch pure Freude mir fast ausgeknockt!)

Accueil chaleureux

Accueil très souriant de Claudine. La chambre Tipaniers étant libre elle nous y a installé, ce qui est très gentil et agréable car la salle de bain est contigue à la chambre. Petit coin détente et petite piscine à disposition dans le jardin. C'était le soir de la fête de la musique. Claudine et son mari nous ont proposé de nous conduire au centre ville et là encore c'est très gentil car il y a au moins 30 minutes de marche. Possibilité d'avoir un petit déjeuner servi le matin, sinon une petite cuisine est à disposition et une supérette à 3 minutes de marche. Rien de particulier à visiter autour de la maison mais nous ne faisions que passer.
