The Sunset Hill Lodge is a true gem of a hotel on Bora Bora. Gerard is a fantastic host whose not only committed to making sure his guests are happy, but is just a nice guy to talk to as well. He's got a number of connections across the island for any kind of activity you want, (diving, excursions, jungle... More

We stayed at the Sunset Hill Lodge for 5 days and wanted to add our voice to the many wonderful reviews it has received. We can only echo what so many others have already said: Gérard is a wonderful host, a very nice person, and his lodge is an extremely good value in an otherwise very expensive place. We were... More

This place is one of a kind as far as pensions go in French Polynesia. No shortcuts have been taken in terms of attention to detail with it's layout. Gerard goes out of his way to help out and it requires the experience to understand why this place has received the kind of reviews it has. I would highly recommend... More

Nice and quiet place. The bungalow came with a small and well-equipped kitchenette (which I actually did not use, as there were several food options nearby) and cosy, comfortable and absolutely convenient rooms. There was free wifi and free bike rental. Gerard is a wonderful host - I am especially grateful to him for getting me on the lagoon tour,... More

Excelent location close to the center of the village, short walk. Gerard was awesome! He helped a lot and even drove me and my... More

This is amazing price value opportunity on Bora Bora. We had the bungalow on stilts which is air conditioned, with a very good equipped kitchenette, king size bed and fantastic view over the lagoon. If you are aware of not being directly on the water then this is the best accommodation option you have probably on Bora Bora. If you... More

We had a wonderful time staying at Sunset Hill Lodge. Gerard is a fantastic host, with lots of great suggestions about what to do, how to do it, and useful information for travellers. Our room was as nice as any we stayed at on our trip, including more expensive places. It was clean and very well equiped, and furnished in... More

This is my favorite place in my trip, My wife and I travelled 5 countries in South Pacific, Senset Hill Lodge is the best place to stay! Gerard always takes care of all tourists, if you are the first time going to Bora Bora, it's the best place to stay, because Gerard will show you many information in Bora Bora.

Wonderful, idyllic bungalows nestled in the hillside of Bora Bora. Gerard met me at the ferry and transported me back to my bungalow (#2). Such a cute place. I was able to use the bicycles that Gerard provides and ride all over the island. I used one of his kayaks one day and transported mangos to his friend on a... More

I honestly don't know where to begin. The owner is the nicest French man in the world. He does free pickup and drop offs anywhere on the island, he works around your schedule, he helps you figure things out, he speaks english, and all around is just a great guy. I don't know him at all I met him 5... More
