Expert advisors of Tahiti & Her Islands
Frédéric
Frédéric has been working with Yestahiti for over 10 years and has traveled the Society and Tuamotu islands, as well as the Marquesas and the Australs. He carefully reviews the best deals daily in order to offer you the best possible rates for any given itinerary. Ideas for tours and discovery are no secret to him and he always analyzes his clients’ specific requests ensuring their stay is memorable.His favorite islands: Huahine et Raivavae
His first advice: “Get off the beaten tracks.
Bora Bora, the Pearl of the Pacific, remains a must-see in your itinerary for first time visitors. However with so many secluded islands you will leave with fond memories of outstanding sceneries and friendly human encounters.
The local people are so friendly and love to introduce you to the authentic Polynesia. Let me help you book a vacation that will be exactly what you expect!’’
Mahearani
Further to her studies in visual communication, Mahearani first followed her passion for the islands and French Polynesia whilst working on the promotion of the Tahiti cultured pearl and the “Maison de la Perle” in Tahiti. She joined the team of Yestahiti in early 2011 and is now in charge of managing our website. Her love for images and unique lights found around our islands definitely reflects the various contents of our website.Her favorite islands:
Moorea, given her proximity of Tahiti (30 minutes away by ferry boat), is ideal to relax after a flight. It is the perfect scenic place to practice stand-up paddle board and have a “motu” islet picnic with friends while facing Haapiti district. Rangiroa has remained genuine. It is like Bora Bora 20 years ago. It hosts an incredible lagoon and passes making it a special place for scuba diving. Besides, fans of the famous Tahiti black pearl will have the opportunity to visit the largest pearl farm of French Polynesia.
Her advice:
Bear in mind that Tahiti and Her Islands are not just blue lagoons and white sandy beaches. Make the most of the Polynesian “art of living”:
• Discover local handicraft
• Be mesmerized by the Polynesian culture (dance, songs and costumes)
• Share a traditional Polynesian meal with flavors that are surprising and delicious.
I promise, these are the best moments along with the friendly Tahitian greeting!
Ariimana
He is a fan of surf and extreme sports. He joined the team in 2005. Better than anyone, he is an expert in the knowledge of the islands’ various accommodation possibilities and discovery tracks. He is the perfect example of our friendly Polynesian people whether you are in touch with him by email, Skype or on the phone!His favorite islands: Tahiti and Raiatea
“Upon arrival, stay a few days on the main island of Tahiti before heading to the other islands. Discover the mythical wave of Teahupoo or do an introductory surf course on the east coast. A few surf schools are open to everyone. Go across the island with a guide, hiking or on a 4WD safari trip and admire breathtaking sceneries and swim in the magnificent cascades.
After dusk, be mesmerized by beautiful traditional dancing and singing shows and discover the strength of our ma’ohi culture.”
Ruta
Ruta is our latest member of the group! Passionate by her culture especially traditional dancing and painting), she could tell you her favourites Polynesian myths and legends for hours!She will be able to guide you, give you good advices and organise for you an unforgettable trip to French Polynesia!
Her favorite islands: Moorea and Raiatea
Before heading to the islands, how about a short stop in Tahiti to swim with dolphins, to explore by 4WD its lush valleys and groves and to sip a fresh cocktail while watching its magnificent sunset at the end of the day.
If Tahiti is too “modern” for you, consider the ferry to visit Tahiti’s sister island, Moorea! A charming sandy island ideal for sunbath breaks near the beautiful turquoises lagoons. Tahiti and her islands, is now an affordable destination to almost any budget, whether you come with your family, your lover or alone! Come and share the lifestyle of the islands by experiencing its warmth and genuine welcome! I only have one piece of advice to give you: relax and make the most of every single moment!

Our teams are made of passionate experts, most of them native from the various islands of French Polynesia and are pleased to share their country with visitors.
A unique expertise, even in Tahiti
Our booking, marketing, product development teams and travel advisors visit the lodging facilities and service providers once or twice a year, not only in the main islands but also in the most remote areas which sometimes shelter a little corner of paradise. Detailed summary reports are prepared further to any inspection and are shared on a database allowing all our staff to benefit from accurate and up-to-date information. We therefore hold unique knowledge and information of all our products.
Guaranteeing you the best rates and special offers

A search for hidden paradise locations and traveling off the beaten trackS
Our local roots and daily involvement in Polynesia’s life and culture prompt us to suggest using more local accommodation and stays on islands which you may never have heard of. We know that these will bring more authentic and original travel experiences outside of the usual modern world you live in. The variety of islands and possibilities of travel allow us to prepare trips with the fragrance of Tahiti’s yesteryear. Some islands are off the track and have remained identical to the last century. Their inhabitants are usually friendlier and will help you experience the magic of Tahiti and Her Islands.

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.
