    Drapes need cleaning, and some dishes in cabinets had not been properly washed.

    Affordable, location near cruise port, very functional studio apartment and owner, Carlos, was welcoming and very useful.

    Carlos is very helpful. He arranged for us to have a car for two days. Good communication. He took care of our luggage as we arrived early and left late. Very much appreciated his extra services to us. The place is comfortable, and the top floor pool is really nice with a 360-degree view.

    The Apartments are of an older style and could do with a refurb. They are located in an Industrial/Commercial area and with not a lot of food options close by. Unfortunately the lift broke down which required bags to be carted up and down the stairs. Lucky the apartments are only on the first floor.

    Carlos picked us up from the airport despite our plane getting in after 1-30am. He delivered us to the apartments and provided a good explanation. Also dropped us to and picked us up from our cruise ship and finally he dropped us out to the airport when we left Papeete. There is an Ezy Market shop with a good range of packaged food and pre=prepare meals, alcohol, drinks etc within 400m.

    Giving our requirements and timing we arrived (also with kids), all went well for 1 night. I would not recommend to stay extra days.

    We choose this location because it's a short distance to the ferry for the other islands. Also the host did pick us up at the airport at 1am . That was very well arranged and very thankful when you arrive the first time in Tahiti. The room is nothing special and quite expensive for what it is.

    It is a unit in a concrete apartment building that looked onto another building. Didn't really feel like a homestay.

    Excellent host who picked me up at the airport and was very responsive and helpful. Good location near shops for food etc. Nice rooftop pool area with a good view.

    at night time this neighbourhood was a little dark. Stay on the big streets and take your precautions, like any other big city.

    We had 2 nights at this studio and were really happy to stay here. We booked an amazing jeeptour via Carlos best experience in Tahiti! Carlos and his wife also drove us around the Islands and showed us so many beautiful places - Thank you for your kindness! The studio is very close to the city, restaurants and shops. The rooftop pool was a great place to take a dip after a long day!

    For the price it was acceptable. If you are looking for a place with good price, basic, and with a comfortable bed this is your place.

    Everything was ok. It was a problem with my parking space the second day. They fix it and say sorry. Good stay. Staff friendly. Thank you so much.

    Everything was good! They asked that you turn off the AC when you leave the apartment but that is a crazy idea because it takes so long for it to cool down so when we left for three hours at a time we left that AC running, it wasn’t worth being sweaty like the first night when we walked in and it was so crazily warm and took hours to cool down. It also helps to close your drapes in the morning to block out that morning sunshine to try and keep it cool. Netflix on television too.

    Excellent location for our needs! Three blocks from cruise/ferry dock, grocery store 1.5 blocks away, Papeete market six blocks away, perfect! The studio was outfitted with everything you need in the kitchen, gorgeous pool on the top of the building however there are no chairs so it’s just the pool. Wonderful view from the pool area however. We were met and picked up at the airport by Carlos who was a delight, he showed us a few things as we went between airport and the apartment and he was a definite highlight.

    We landed at the airport with instructions for transportation to the unit. We were greeted at the designated spot and driven to the unit. We were given information about the area, sharing our plans. The following day we had been offered a pickup to go to the ferry. It was a great beginning of our trip to the Islands. Thank you.
