Much to our dismay, we have returned to NY to brave the freezing temperatures. We daydream about the spectacular jewel of the pacific - Bora Bora. We wanted to say what an amazing time we both had on this trip. Everything was fabulous! The island, people, resort, bungalow, and the lagoon with its creatures were just magnificent! Thank you so much for helping us plan our dream vacation! I would love to take the survey, and if you'd like me to post some feedback on tripadvisor.com I would be happy to. Thank you again

MAURUURU!!

Translate by Google Translate :
wanted you to specify some details about the accommodation:

-Papeete Relais Fenua: very good accommodation, very friendly host
-Tipaniers in Moorea: absolutely magical, beautiful location, great restaurant.
-Relais Mahana Huahine: pretty overrated, especially unpleasant reception, restaurant overpriced. Litle advise next: at Tara, much cheaper and very good and friendly. By telling the island is beautiful!
A-Bora beach Temanuata: good location, small but cozy bungalow, very warm welcome. Gripe: where breakfasts are given sachets of Nescafe ... At that price, it should have real coffee!
A-Maupiti, Pension Auira: Maupiti Island is beautiful, the bungalows located on Motu Auira are very simple but well located, but must warn people that there is no electricity on the motu Auira and the gen works only from 18h to 22h .... So with the heat we had, it was a bit painful! By cons, the place is great if you like the quiet, the kitchen is large and Gilbert excellent!
A-Raiatea to Sunset Beach: absolutely gorgeous! Huge bungalows in a huge coconut grove, a wonderful welcome (it takes you to shop on arrival at the airport, according to your wishes). And the island is beautiful
-A Taha, pension Hibiscus: Bungalows near the lagoon in a garden that needs to be better maintained, but the decor of the fare is very pretty, sought and home of Leon and his family is nice, food is excellent and their excursions qu'organisent his son, lovely.
-A Tikehau Aito Motel Colette: beautiful location on a beautiful beach, with a beautiful well maintained vegetation, sun. Colette's kitchen is excellent and plentiful (we even had a huge lobster included in the half board!) And her husband Polynesian improvise a few songs with guitar and ukulele on some nights!
-A Rangiroa, Te Vahine Dream is our favorite heart. Norbert is lovely, food is excellent, very well presented, the restaurant overlooks the lagoon. The beach bungalows are beautiful, very spacious, decorated with a lot of research and taste, outdoor bathroom in flowers, large terrace overlooking the lagoon with sun loungers, and despite the lack of beach, you can swim and snorkeling in front of his bungalow
And finally, at Tokerau Village Fakarava. The garden is beautiful, without more, the host is absent, the bungalow is not ready to 14h, sun terrace without the bed has no bedspread, the decor is non-existent, TV, medieval, not streamers and lots of mosquitoes, ceiling fan does not work for ages (or in our bungalows, or in others!) Anyway, to summarize, I would say that it is without charm with a nonexistent host, c ' is if we just talk to us for meals (which are relatively correct). At breakfast, the bread is always frozen (we replied that he must go to the village to look cool ...) and you have to ask what is missing: butter, jam, milk ... no fruit ... For cons, the location is superb, the beach beautiful, especially if you walk a bit to the right, sweet nice for snorkeling.
Voila! I tried to capture our stay the best. We had an unforgettable month, saw and met wonderful people that we will not forget anytime soon.
