Maison Taina

20 out of 10 for our stay. We booked this trip last-minute with no plans, arriving late on a Saturday night. By Sunday morning Valerie had given us recommendations for Tahiti and Moorea, she arranged a rental car, a boat trip, and then a spectacular dinner by her son who is a gourmet chef. Valerie and Laurent were so personable and friendly, they took such good care of us, this is like visiting family. The accommodations were perfect, breakfast was delicious (we added this on), and the setting is glorious. We will reccomend Maison Taina to many people, this is a Tahitian Gem!

Very welcoming hosts who have created a relaxing home away from home for their guests. Comfortable king size bed and good quality sheets,towels etc Optional is a 5 star gourmet 3 course dinner available at the property.The best food we had in our entire vacation and would highly recommend.

We chose the cheaper downstairs accomodation option which was our choice but if we returned would chose a balcony room to enjoy the view.

Maison Taina is a quaint inn located in the hills of Papeete. The owners, Valérie and Laurent and their son, Tom, were very hospitable. My husband had a chance to practice his french at dinner. We were impressed by Tom's cooking skills. We had an excellent meal that was comparable to a high end restaurant. Wished we could've stayed longer to enjoy his cooking.

Valerie and her family were exceptional. Very welcoming and went out of their way to make us feel at home. Helped us to recover from the Hertz rental car fiasco we found our self in. A rental car is almost a necessity here as taxis are quite expensive. Use Expedia to contact the hosts and obtain some explicit directions to the property as Google Maps is inaccurate in this private residential area. The optional meals offered were way above and beyond our expectations, dinner especially. Tom really is a culinary rock star. 5 stars

This place was really the most wonderful surprise of my whole trip. It is spectacular-bougainvillea everywhere and the feel of a beautifully appointed French family country house near the sea. Valerie and Laurent are the most gracious hosts you can imagine, and their son Tom is an EXTREMELY talented and accomplished chef. He has the kind of originality and finesse that makes for a destination restaurant. If you stay here I strongly advise you try his cuisine your first night so that if you book dinners elsewhere you will understand what you are missing. I have dined at some very fine restaurants but have never in my life had a better meal than those prepared by Tom. He finds unexpected combinations that work just brilliantly. So to sum up Maison Taina- a truly beautiful place run by truly beautiful people.

we came on our honeymoon for the first part of our trip. It is very relaxing vibes during the day to recover from the early flight. dinner was very very good. like you are at a 5 star restaurant- 3 course meal cooked to perfection. the owners are very accommodating and very helpful for some local tips.

Short 2 day stay was very memorable because very friendly hosts, excellent cuisine from Chef Tom and breathtaking view of Pacific.

These are the most welcoming and accommodating hosts a guest could ever have!!

My wife arrived in Tahiti a couple days before me. Laurent made a special trip to pick her up and ensure she arrived safely. Valerie made her comfortable and Tom cooked some great food. When I joined them everything was great. Nice room, amazing ensuite, nice pool for a quick dip and once again Tom made an awesome fish (Mahi Mahi) meal for us including appetizer and dessert. Highly recommend Maison Taina to other mature adults, couples. ❤️
