Raiatea Motu Iriru Hotels

"We had a great stay at Havai'i lodge. It's a beautiful and quiet property in a cul-de-sac and the place is comfortable and clean. The kitchen is well equipped. It's shared with another room, but since we were out and about all day and only had our coffee and breakfast at the place, it wasn't a problem. We recommend having a car on Raiatea as it's much easier to get around this beautiful island. The host helped arrange a car for us, which was nice."

"Kitchen is outside common area. Everything is fresh and clean."

"Lovely property in the old, traditional Polynesian style. We enjoyed our stay. "

"The staff was awesome. Not only do they exude Polynesian hospitality, they cater to your every need. Checking wasn’t about signing this and that. It was a lei greeting, a chilled, flower scented hand towel, and a cool, refreshing flavored ice tea while sitting in a comfortable chair. Our bags were delivered to our bungalow while we were given the info about meal times and amenities. The food was always a hit. Ono as we say back home. Broke da mout! I’m gonna miss it. Erika and Vaite were working very hard, but they always had a big smile whenever they were with guests. They’d serve every course at every meal with a smile, even if they were just bringing coffee or tea. Walking back from an ocean swim, I’d pass the restaurant and hear “ia orana”. The gentleman keeping the grounds clean and tidy would also greet us without fail. Opoa Beach will make you feel so welcome and relaxed. You won’t want to leave. We will return. Hopefully, sometime soon."

"This is an absolute haven of tranquility and you don’t expect a lodge like that while driving down the East coast of Raiatea. The garden is stunning and you can read about all the plants. By the small beach is a lily pond and the hillside is a jungle of the most amazing vegetation. I was greeted very warmly and shown around, there is a beautiful communal area with a kitchen that is fully stocked and then you have little spaces in and outside of the fridge for the things you buy for yourself. There are no meals offered, you have to prepare them yourself. "

"Pictures don’t do this property justice. It was absolutely the most beautiful place we’ve ever stayed. We felt completely private, the view was out of this world, the house was clean and beautiful, and Kevin and Katharina were the most gracious and wonderful guides and hostess. Kevin took my family out to a Motu and snorkeling and taught us so many things about what we were seeing in the ocean. Katharina prepared for us the most delicious dinner that we ate outside on that beautiful beach. This was the most incredible stay our family has ever had. We loved every moment of it and we’re so sad to leave when we had to. Thank you so much!"
