Vanina BIESSE
Charming, cosy, clean and well equipped guesthouse. Let yourself be tempted by this zen cocoon that your host Vanina Biesse has installed in the town of Punaauia. It's the best place to relax with family, friends, or even as a couple. The lodge is located near a commercial center where you will find restaurants, snacks, a pizzeria, a creperie, a very good pastry shop as well as a good bakery, you will also find nice stores, a pharmacy, a doctor, a hairdresser, a massage center, a bank with an ATM, etc. ..... You have the beach of la pointe des pecheurs at 10mn by foot, and another one at 20 mn just in front of the Mobil station. Finally you will find everything around the Lodge. Don't wait any longer and rent a little piece of paradise at Tamanu Lodge! From now on you can also rent a car at Tamanu Lodge. We offer you 2 vehicles, automatic, with air conditioning: - A Fiat 500L - A Kia Picanto Available for rent from today ! Use Waze to go to Tamanu Lodge 2:https://waze.com/ul/h2sveetg5q or Google Map

I speak English and French very well and I will be able to guide you in your choice of leisure activities on the island of Tahiti and especially in the commune of Punaauia where life is good.
