Our story
A family guesthouse unlike any Tahiti has seen.
The outer islands have long had refined guesthouses. On Tahiti, the main island, they stayed simple — and that is their charm. We wanted to keep that charm, and give it comfort.
The idea
Not a hotel, not an ordinary guesthouse: a home.
We know Tahiti's grand hotels and we know its guesthouses. The former have comfort, the latter have soul. There was nothing in between.
Tahiti Island Lodge was born from that wish: just six bungalows, so that every guest is welcomed as if staying with friends — but with the bedding, the quiet and the care of a fine hotel.
The setting
The Pointe des Pêcheurs, Punaauia.
On Tahiti's west coast — the gentlest, the one with sunsets over Moorea. The lodge is about ten minutes from the airport and fifteen from Papeete, depending on traffic, in a garden of coconut palms and frangipani.
The lagoon is a few minutes' walk away. On site, the pool, the bar and the table take care of the rest.
