Vaitape accommodation from AU$224

We loved the partial over the water bungalow. We were fascinated by the fish, turtles and sharks that were visible from the deck especially at night with a spotlight on. The salt water pool was pristine in cleanliness and guests usually remained quiet. We could snorkel from provided ladders on the property. Some fish were seen but highly recommend taking a lagoon tour. Food served in the restaurant was tasty and reasonably priced for the region. We especially want to praise the owners and their daughter for the exceptional attention and care they heaped upon us. The bungalow interior was sparce and a little outdated but clean. Mattress was very firm. An overhead fan and island breezes was plenty to keep us comfortable in the heat and humidity. We will definitely stay here again if we have the gift of returning.

My fiancé and I loved this villa so much we extended our stay! You will not find a more pristine property with all the amenities you could ever ask for. The kitchen has everything you need to make meals, the beds are large and comfortable, lots of closet space, and the bathrooms are stocked with shampoo and body wash. Having laundry on site was very convenient. The view is phenomenal. We watched many sunsets from the balcony and from in the pool. It is one of the highest villas in the area and is perfectly located within walking distance to downtown shopping, food trucks, and a market for groceries, but far enough away from any noise and is very peaceful. Allan, the owner, is so welcoming and met with us as soon as we got in and communicated with us the entire time. He gave great recommendations on restaurants, where to snorkle and pearl shopping. He even scheduled excursions for us, and because of him, we were able to get married and had a traditional French Polynesian ceremony! He provided above and beyond service and really made us feel at home. This is a luxury villa with all the comfort and would be great for families. We rented a car to explore the island and drove to Matira beach every day. All in all, we couldn't have asked for a better place to spend our honeymoon! Thank you Allan for making this trip memorable and we will be back!

the house smelled like sewer. They need to do something about it. I owned a construction business and I can tell they have problems with the sewer. The smell was bad in the bathroom and in the laundry room. I kept most doors open to try and get rid of the smell. Do not allow any more rental until it is fixed. but the house was cute and an excellent views.
