Overwater bungalows face a turquoise lagoon on Tahaa, French Polynesia's vanilla island
Skip to product information
The lagoon here runs turquoise and shallow, framed by the coral reef that rings Tahaa and scattered with motu just offshore. Beach bungalows stand on stilts over the sand at 75 m², each with a wood terrace of 20 m², a four-poster queen bed, an outdoor shower, and a private beach with loungers. Garden bungalows sit at 36 m² around the pool, facing the water from a shorter distance. The Prestige and Tradition categories add a private jacuzzi on the deck. A Tropical Villa overlooks the lagoon with a 20 m² room, a mezzanine, and its own walled tropical garden. You can hear the reef break from the terrace at low tide. The restaurant works from fish landed daily by local fishermen — tuna, swordfish, parrotfish, and langoustine — served alongside breadfruit and taro, plus French dishes made with fresh local produce. Excursions run privately: snorkelling at the Oromahana coral garden, an afternoon on the Avera motu with its beach bar, sunset cruises for two, line fishing, and diving. Bicycles and Wi-Fi are free across the property. Tahaa itself, 88 km² of old volcanic ground, produces most of the vanilla sold as Tahiti's own. Transfers run by private boat from the airport on neighbouring Raiatea.
