Tumaraa Vacation Rentals

"Very nice stay in an overwater bungalow. Stayed in end of pontoon room. Stay was very friendly and attentive. Authentic Polynesian feel. "

"It was a lovely ‘bed and breakfast’ type place with your own bungalow. Very small , Staff were extremely friendly and accommodating. Was exactly as what we expected for a very small quaint establishment"

"Front desk members were phenomenal! Restaurant service was a little slow and members didn’t speak much English. Activities were limited. Not much around the property. "

"This is a beautiful spot. They have kayaks you can borrow to go to the coral gardens about a mile from the property. The owners are lovely and inviting. It’s possible to book breakfast or dinner and they have a bar. Quiet, charming and quaint. "

"We spent two nights at Hilda and Olivier’s lovely B&B+ as a transition between Maupiti and Taha’a. The bungalow is built and decorated with focus on quality, beauty, and locale. At every turn I saw patience, craftsmanship, and concern for the environment. The bungalows are made to last! The interior is modern in design and amenities. The bedding is of high quality and very comfortable. Ceiling fan plus A/C plus mosquito screens in all windows plus shutters make adjusting to temperature changes easy. I especially noted the lovely cool-ish breeze off the mountains coming through during the night. Are there mosquitos and ants? Of course there are, it’s the tropics. And we weren’t bothered at all. Hilda is a star-quality chef, and the three-course dinners that Olivier delivers to the bungalow are a celebration for the eye and palate. The breakfast, also delivered to the bungalow, is plentiful and includes homemade jams and homegrown fruit. Good coffee, too. I did swim in the salt water pool, and it is long enough for five strokes. While not enough for a workout, it’s lovely for cooling off. Hilda and Olivier go out of their way to be helpful, professional, and friendly. Responses to my emails were prompt. We would stay at Vare Vavae again and recommend it."

"The property was very interesting and comfortable. And the shared bathroom and shower was very clean and comfortable. And the rate was very good 👍. The staff was very nice and friendly. It felt like a retreat from city life to nature. "

"Nice place to relax and do a little kayaking and snorkeling."
