Motu Ta Vahine Holidays from AU$2,822

New property, there are three separate lodge houses. It's on the main road that circles the island. My house had a full size frig, 4 burner gas stove, microwave, full sink, cable channel TV, strong wifi, ceiling fan in the living room, nice bathroom and AC in the bedroom. It's around 5 miles from Uturoa, past the airport. So, you need to rent a car or scooter. There is a small car and scooter rental place three minute walk from the lodges. Called Havaii Rent. Small sign in front of their driveway. Elderly couple own it.

A unique island experience! Highly recommend!

We had an excellent stay here during our time on Taha’a! The owner is very nice and takes time to help organize anything for your stay. They have a restaurant on site that provides breakfast (fruit, breads, coffee) and dinner (3-course meal with prepared local fish dishes) for an extra charge. The dinners were very good, you can head up the restaurant early for a cocktail and live music on Fridays. There is a dock right out front where you can snorkel - we saw tons of different fish, coral, and an 8’ manta ray! Teiho is on site and will help organize anything you need (scooters, taxis, tours, etc) and is very helpful! They let us store our luggage while we waited for the ferry to Bora Bora. The accommodations have everything needed, but could use some updates and some TLC. Even still, my husband and I agreed that we would absolutely return because of the amazing team and location!

The staff was great and we were happy to find out later that the same group who owns this hotel owns our favorite hotel in Sicily. It was super clean and the staff took their time to learn our names. Carlos also gave us a great tour and knowledge about the islands on our ride in. We were disappointed to find out upon arrival that the gourmet restaurant was closed during our stay. If we had known about that ahead of time we would probably have booked a different hotel or moved when we went to each island differently.
