A unique hotel, that has set a standard for small luxury properties in French Polynesia. Generally, there are hotels and small pensions here. Large hotels are difficult to manage from staffing issues to the high cost of just about everything (import tax and shipping). Small pensions don’t offer the services of larger hotels, you’re on your own. Vahine is kind... More

We stayed on Vahine Island for seven nights over the 2011 Christmas holiday. This was our first visit to the South Pacific. I found Vahine Island on Trip Advisor while researching the Relais Chateaux Property, "Le Taha'a." But when I saw that Trip Advisor reviewers had rated Vahine higher, I ended up booking here instead. Vahine is made up of... More

My husband and I stayed at Vahine for 5 days during our honeymoon in April 2006. We chose a beach bungalow with a large deck. The resort has 9 rooms and it really feels like your own private Paradise. Our bungalow was perfect, lots of closet space too since we traveled for 3 weeks and I hate living out of... More

My husband and I stayed in Vahine Island for 3 days of our 10 day Tahiti "tour". Vahine Island is by far the most secluded, romantic, quiet island. We loved every moment we were there. We went in March of 2003 and at the time, Eric was the name of the caretaker. His wife was the chef and they had... More

We arrived at Vahine very wet after a long boat ride in the rain from the airport. We could have easily been grumpy after our wet arrival, but we were... More

From the boat ride in, to the food, accommodations, sincerity and helpfulness of the staff, we were truly amazed. This location is unique in that there are only 3 overwater bungalows and 6 beach bungalows. We loved... More

If you are looking to relax consider Vahine Island paradise found....My husband and I first visited last year but only for three days... this year to celebrate our anniversary we returned for two weeks! If you are into glitz and glamor you will not like Vahine...But, if like me you enjoy beauty, in nature, in incredibly kind people and their... More

We arrived at Raitea airport and were whisked off to the private motu in their own boat. Took 40 minutes but the sunset was fine. We then had a beach bungalow to die for - very happy with the facilities and staff. With only a handful of rooms you soon meet the various guests and socialise or not as it... More
