"Only solar water heater, so late night showers or early morning showers are without hot water if there’s cloudy weather. Other than that, very comfortable and pleasant stay. Staff were very nice. Friendly dogs (did not see any cats) on property. Large local lizards, store your food or snacks."
"Main issue is the place is a little difficult to find. Partially, this is the lack of clean street addresses on the island. You can't just search for it in google maps and need to use the map provided that is buried in the host message."
"Like sharing a house with friends. A bit of noise from the family; but very clean and well supplied. We were comfortable and it was great to support the local people."
"My husband and I booked sort of a last minute trip to Bora Bora and Raiatea. We booked the last room that was available for our dates at Apatoa. It was called The Prestige Villa. This Villa is a private house located on a hill above the resort. It was absolutely fantastic. There is a large deck with its own Infinity pool and panoramic view of the surrounding island and lagoon. Highly recommended!"
"I can’t say enough about the hospitality extended to us by Michel, the proprietor. He was so kind, and really made us feel at home. The shared space in the kitchen was really fun. We enjoyed the opportunity to be to meet and talk with other guests. Come here if you want a very comfortable place to relax without the corporate polish of other resorts. Michel gave us a great restaurant recommendation: we loved dinner at the Opoa Beach restaurant, just a short drive down the road. It was one of the most delightful dining experiences I’ve ever had. While here, we snorkeled, sat on comfortable beach chairs, and could have kayaked if we had not been so busy relaxing. Merci Michel!"
"We had a great stay at Havai'i lodge. It's a beautiful and quiet property in a cul-de-sac and the place is comfortable and clean. The kitchen is well equipped. It's shared with another room, but since we were out and about all day and only had our coffee and breakfast at the place, it wasn't a problem. We recommend having a car on Raiatea as it's much easier to get around this beautiful island. The host helped arrange a car for us, which was nice."
"Living area was spotless. The neighbors, which were charming, helped us get in. Location was excellent with a diving shop nearby. It was truly comfortable."
