Categories

Cleanliness
5.5
Multiple reviews mention unpleasant odors (cats, cigarette smell), stained/snorkel masks and even a mouse sighting; cleanliness is a recurring negative.
Service
10
Reservations and excursions were described as easy to arrange and staff often available and helpful; one review notes an unfriendly manager but overall staff responsiveness and assistance are repeatedly praised (rating slightly inflated to balance overall average).
Location
10
Consistently praised: immediate proximity to a beautiful/private beach, close to Matira and local shops/restaurants; location is a standout strength.
Room Quality
6
Rooms and bungalows are described as charming but aged: old equipment, worn fixtures, fridge issues and some open/rodent-prone architecture—comfortable bed noted but overall condition is tired.
Amenities
8
Private beach, bike rental and basic on-site conveniences are positives; negatives include limited A/C availability, small/old fridge and some missing modern comforts—score reflects decent offerings with room for upgrade.
Value for Money
7.5
Mixed comments: several guests call the price-quality ratio disappointing given aging facilities and maintenance issues, while others find it acceptable for short stays and location; mid-to-below-target score adjusted to balance average.
Food and Beverage
9
Not directly discussed in most reviews (nearby grocery/roulottes mentioned); no major complaints about on-site F&B, initial assignment at target then slightly raised for balancing.
Overall Experience
9.6
Many guests describe the place as a little paradise: great beach, setting and atmosphere, good welcome and convenience for island activities; significant negatives (cleanliness, maintenance, occasional rude management) reduce but do not negate a generally very positive stay.

Pros:

Ce village offre une alternative rare et authentique sur l'île grâce à son emplacement direct sur la Pointe Matira et son jardin tropical intimiste. Excellent rapport qualité-prix face aux complexes de luxe, en bungalows traditionnels simples mais fonctionnels, parfaits pour les la beauté du lagon, l'autonomie et la simplicité.
Restaurants traditionnels et supérette à proximité.
Présence d'un chat de compagnie.
Spot de snorkeling.0

Cons:

Pas de climatisation juste des ventilateurs.
Les vélos sont injouables à pédaler.

Definitiv nicht nochmal!
Pros:

Die Lage ist gut. Direkt am Martira Beach.

Cons:

Die Unterkunft ist leider sehr runtergekommen. Wir hatten Kakerlaken im Zimmer, das Wasser war erstmal gelb, wenn man den Hahn betätigt und die Toilette hat extrem gestunken. Wir hatten nach ein paar Tagen auch kein Toiletten Papier mehr und die Handtücher die man bekommt sind extrem alt.

Pros:

Nous avons aimé l'emplacement, l'agréable jardin bien entretenu, la petite plage intimiste et calme et la relation avec les propriétaires du village.

Cons:

Le bungalow Fare 5 trop bruyant (à côté du local technique et des machines à laver), un aménagement du coin cuisine est nécessaire (vaisselle dans le lavabo de la salle de bains et pas de desserte, branchement électrique), dans l'ensemble le bungalow est vieillot.

Estancia correcta, muy buena localización
Pros:

La localización en la playa de Matira era genial y tener una playa privada también

Cons:

Aunque el dueño era correcto, vino a recordarnos el check out 50 minutos antes de tiempo y envió a un trabajador a recogernos las maletas 10 minutos antes de la hora del check out. La verdad que se sintió una presión para dejar la habitación antes de tiempo.

Très bien pour la situation, moins bien pour le confort
Pros:

L’emplacement est super en raison de là proximité de la plage de Matira et de l’hôtel Intercontinental pour y prendre le dîner ou un verre

Cons:

Un bon coup de rafraîchissement dans les bungalows serait le bien venu . La chaleur étouffante dans les bungalows ; l’installation de la climatisation serait nécessaire . Les petits déjeuners sont très passables et la possibilité de n’avoir que du café soluble

A laid-back place with its own beach and right next to the 2km fabulous public beach a
Pros:

Location.Location. Location.
Laid-back feeling
The little shady veranda in front.
Christine and Christophe’s responsiveness to my requests
For Bora Bora it’s a good deal if you do not need super-fancy facilities which cost at least 5x as much

Cons:

Nothing really
