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.

Bien situé et typique de la vie polynésienne
Pros:

Le village Temanuata bénéficie d’une plage privée, qui donne sur le magnifique lagon de la pointe Matira. Il y a tout à proximité : restaurant, roulotte, supérette, plage publique avec eau turquoise, excursion de chez Nono pour faire le tour de faire le tour de l’île à 2 mn à pieds. On peut même louer une voiturette à quelques centaines de mètres. Les terrasses n’ont pas de vis-à-vis. Personnel tahitien accueillant et aux petits soins Bref, c’est top pour une immersion au plus près de la vie tahitienne.

Cons:

La literie est moyenne. Si vous cherchez un 4 étoiles, passez votre chemin.

Per 3 giorni tutto sommato ci può stare.
Pros:

La posizione è ottima per la spiaggia più bella. Inoltre nella spiaggia privata si può fare snorkeling e vedere di tutto dalle tartarughe alle aquile di mare. Il proprietario è gentile e disponibile.

Cons:

La struttura è molto datata, mancavano degli appendiabiti. Sarebbe un po da rimodernare. nel nostro bungalow interno non filtrava praticamente mai il sole quindi per stendere ed asciugare diventa tutto un po complicato.

Séjour à Bora Bora
Pros:

La réservation a été facile, j'ai pu les avoir au téléphone pour avoir des info. Ils m'ont réservé des visites de l'île et je n'ai pas eu besoin de faire les démarches, c'est top! Les prestataires sont venus à chaque fois au village nous chercher. La plage privée est calme, on peut y observer les poissons. La.superette en face permet de faire ses courses.

Très décevant.
Pros:

Le seul point positif est la proximité avec la plage Matira

Cons:

Le patron désagréable, l’établissement est indiqué non-fumeur mais celui-ci fume donc ça sent la cigarette partout, y compris les masques tuba sont imprégnés!!!, rapport qualité prix catastrophique, vous trouverez de meilleurs logements moins chers.

Pros:

Petit hôtel cosi, végétalisé, au naturel ( sable au sol). Petit bungalow plage très agréable. La plage est jolie, propre, ombragée en fin d'après-midi. Seul inconvénient le va et vient des bateaux qui agitent l'eau et font du bruit. Mais vraiment bien.

Cons:

Peu de commerces autour, mais on s'en sort. C'est Tahiti, quoi: légumes ou fruits frais presque introuvables à un prix raisonnable... c'est le paradoxe dans cet antre exotique où tout pousse.
