Self Catering Accommodation in Te-Fare-Arii

An exceptional, authentic Polynesian experience. You stay on the island with a local family, their fantastic dogs, and their pet pig. The tent is not just a tent – it’s a small house, more like glamping, with doors that close and a very comfortable bed, located right on the beach. At night, the gentle waves of the lagoon lull you to sleep. You can wade or swim to the main part of the island, as the water is only waist-deep. There’s a rich lagoon life for snorkeling, and they also offer free kayak rentals. The family is incredibly friendly – Coco and Poe are wonderful hosts and do their best to accommodate every wish. Poe cooks a delicious traditional Polynesian dinner. Breakfast is generous: eggs, butter, homemade jam, pastries, coffee, tea, and tropical fruit. Staying here gave me a priceless insight into Polynesian culture, while they also respectfully provided me with all the privacy and time to myself that I needed.

The owner was so nice. Clean room , Shared Bathroom but clean. Amazing view

Ma'Te the host was super nice, she is absolutely perfect, the reception was wonderful, she picked us up at the ferry dock and also transported us back to the ferry dock when we left. We rented bicycles which functioned exceptionally well and rode around the island. Breakfast was very nice.
