The Tuamotu and Gambier Islands Budget Hotels

"There only reason for the four stars on the property is because there is a lot of renovations going on that will only make it better. Food was really good. I enjoyed there pool looking over the beautiful lagoon. "

"Lovely stay overall - beautiful small property. Attentive host, comfortable beds- do bring mosquito repellent. Would definitely stay again. Food was the only disappointment. The set menu the night we had it was a 4oz piece of fish, buttered carrots, a tiny (2 bite) appetizer and a dessert dish that we both found unpalatable. No bread, no choices. My husband left the table still hungry. I would not book the optional dinner again."

"We took our family of 4 and had a lovely time. The location is quiet, peaceful, and remote which we loved. We walked all around the property as much as we pleased and explored the beautiful scenery. The fishing was great and Captain was amazing. They even cooked the fish we caught and the chef was superb. It’s very easy to relax and unwind from the American hustle and bustle at Aotera. The host was very welcoming, friendly and helpful during the whole stay. It definitely was a week in paradise."

"Lovely location (beautiful views!) with amazing staff (shout out to Ghislaine!). It is a bit expensive and things like the bike and scooter rentals are add-ons as well, but this is what I'd expect in an isolated area like this. Do recommend!"

"The location, facility, amenities and service are outstanding! This is our second visit and we’ll be back!"

"Cute Tree house villa with gorgeous views of lagoon. Comfy bed. "

"The "cabins" are very crude. They don't have AC and are very dated. Having said that, it cooled off nicely in the cabin. There are gaps below door and around windows. If you are prepared for crude then it will be a good stay. You are right by the ocean and very quiet. There are bikes, kayaks and standing boards available for use. The meals were very good too. It was a good experience. Just don't expect fancy at all. "

"Great location, comfortable accommodations, and a very friendly host made our stay just excellent. Thank you, Henry!"

"A couple of nice bungalows near the ocean reef. Location to the main pier within bicycle distance for tours. Breakfast only option on site. General store nearby. A couple of lunch and dinner options nearby. Cynthia the hostess is energetic and accommodating. Fits the travel niche of the quiet retreat with WiFi. "
