This eco-lodge is the perfect place to relax by the sea, with beautiful views, sun beds, and kayaks for exploring. The hosting family is incredibly kind and welcoming, striking the perfect balance between friendliness and privacy. Meals are homemade and delicious, shared with just a few guests for a cozy, communal feel. With only a handful of lodges, the atmosphere stays quiet and intimate. Airport transfer is included, which is a big plus given the remote location. A peaceful, authentic escape in paradise.

We stayed at the lodge for three nights and we went to Fakarava essentially for diving. The lodge is quite remote from town and most dive centers (7-9 km) but most of them offer pick-up. There are bicycles at the lodge but they don’t have brakes nor handles and the return from the town center can be challenging at night due to strong headwind. The lodge was clean, however - since there are no mosquito nets at the windows - many bugs and gecko can enter the room. Therefore you don’t want to leave the windows open and the room becomes hot quickly - fan is provided. The lodge offers internet connection but - when we stayed - it was impossible to browse the internet possibly due to the bad weather. The owner speaks no English at all and it was very difficult to communicate with him and his staff. However, they were very kind and helped us in any possible way. That said - most structures in Fakarava offer basic services and if your prepared and know what to expect you may enjoy your stay. Small improvements from the owners to the lodge could significantly increase the pleasure of the stay. Also, the price is pretty high for what is offered. If you like simple and remote places, the lodge is quiet and offer amazing ocean view with a private pool.

There was a store across the street which was needed because everyhing else is 9+ km away. The host was friendly, but didn't respond via booking during our stay. They have a young lady staying at the same location in a different house who also runs the store – she is very friendly, kind & helpful!
