HINAMOE LODGE

Le bord de mer, on peut voir le coucher du soleil, les requins dormeurs depuis la plage 😍

Rien à signaler

Beliggenheden var god og modtagelsen fin og hjælpsom

Morgenmaden var simpelthen for lidt til voksne mennesker og blev placeret på et bord hvor katten også kunne nå det.

A trip to French Polynesia, specifically to Rangiroa, was the trip of a lifetime for me. I had studied and researched it dozens of times before departure. I found this property on Google Maps, though information was scarce. I chose it primarily for its location - close to the ocean and not far from Tiputa Pass. I found paradise. And I wasn't expecting it. Paradise is, first and foremost, the family that hosted me: Christian and his wife. Two exceptional people - kind, welcoming, but never intrusive. They opened recently and are pouring all their energy and savings into growing this property. Currently 5 rooms right on the lagoon, with a private beach adjacent to the famous Kia Ora hotel. See my attached photos. Please note: the room is simple, Polynesian-style. If you want five-star luxury, this is NOT the place for you. But it has everything you need and more - air conditioning (extremely rare in lodges), microwave, fresh drinking water, refrigerator, etc. The bed is comfortable, the bathroom simple but functional with hot water available 24/7. With only 5 rooms, it's likely difficult to find availability. In my opinion, write directly to Christian - I think he'll help you book. On Sundays in Rangiroa, everything is closed - supermarkets, restaurants. I didn't know this. I asked the owners for advice. Shortly after, they appeared with a tray containing a wonderful two-course lunch. I had to insist on contributing to the cost. Rangiroa is wonderful. But it's thanks to Hinamoe Lodge that it became a dream.

Absolutely perfect! I miss it already.

Good location, but the property and grounds are poorly maintained

No electrical outlets near the bed, and overhead lighting, plumbing issue with a smell The bathroom sink leaked twice. Fruit Flies and Cockroaches. Could not lock the door from the inside. The bed was extremely uncomfortable

Le logement est propre et bien entretenu, le lit super confortable, le petit déjeuner très bon et cerise sur le gâteau une très jolie vue sur le lagon pour boire son café ou dîner le soir :)

Really liked the location. It was close to the airport and close to all the diving centers. Christian, the owner was very attentive and helpful.

The accommodation is very basic in the sense-there was no mirror in the bathroom. But one does not need much if there are just a few steps leading you directly to the beautiful lagoon. So what you need is the AC to fall asleep, a shower that also runs bot wather and some nice sun loungers to relax and enjoy the lagoon view. And that’s what you get.

Authenticité. L’accueil.

Accueil et gentillesse En première ligne face au lagon turquoise

Excellent location and our host Christian was great at helping us book tours. It was nice to have a large refrigerator and a stove for cooking.

I would have liked a light blanket in addition to the top sheet provided,it wasn’t cold,but I like the weight of a cover. The stairs to the bedrooms are quite steep, and I was uneasy climbing and descending, probably not a challenge to a younger person.
