Warm and welcoming guest houses are ideal for travelers who prefer laid-back accommodations with a personal touch. Usually family run, these hosts will provide local recommendations and even optional meals. Guest houses sometimes feature a cozy living room or a garden – and are still cheaper than most regular hotels.
The property has everything you need, kitchen has all the equipment and even a little of the basics like oil to help with your meals. Fridge to keep your water cold! Bathroom clean and shower is fab. You even have a washing machine. Poevara couldn’t be a better host if she tried - she brought us fresh fruit and made us feel so welcome. Thank you so so much!
Lani - the owner - is the sweetest host. She always makes sure that you feel good throughout your stay. The bed is comfortable, you can use the kitchen to make your own food (helpful because the island is expensive), the bathroom is huge and it is very quiet. The breakfast is also fantastic. I had the best time. Don’t hesitate to book this for your stay on Bora Bora as it’s the most personal experience you can get
Amazing place, the nature is absolutely stunning out there and Tapu is a great host. You need to have the right attitude because life on the motu is simple, don't expect luxury. But if you have, you will have a really great experience, and there is probably no better price/performance-ratio in Bora.
Best place to be in contact with the local culture. Fred is a great host, willing to help you in any way he can. Meals were so delicious, we loved our stay!
The breakfast was very nice. Eggs, fresh fruits, croissants. Decorated with flowers. Done with a lot of love :)
The sleepingroom is very lovely and the bed is very cofortable. Really enjoyed my stay in Melanie’s Lodge!The kitchen has everything you need for cooking. Melanie is an absolut lovely and carrying person. Seldom had such an sweet and attentive host.
Lovely local family. Fabulous host (called me in WhatsAp to kindly answer my questions and gave us some delicious bread on our penultimate day). Fabulous location a few minutes stroll to stunning Matira Beach, 5-10 minutes to two supermarkets & bars. 4 units: two simple, rustic and charming double bedrooms upstairs with a shared toilet/sink/shower downstairs (great sea view) or ensuite bedroom with king sized bed and garden view. Have a couple of basic bikes or can rent a car or scooter from them too.
The Village Temanuata is in a great location at Matira, with access to its own clean and tidy beach and near the public beach. It was a quiet and relaxing place to be especially with a veranda out of the wind.
It was close to the restaurants and food shops.
We had a small kitchen which was useful. The staff were all very friendly
Compared to other hotels, this was a much cheaper option so we weren’t expecting luxury
Great hostess, very helpful and welcoming. The room was clean and there were two cups of tea waiting for us in the room. Fantastic location. Close to the beach. Big bathroom.
We rented a scooter from our hostess. The scooter is electric, brand new and quiet enough to have a normal conversation during a ride. I think you can also rent a car at Matira house.
