Tifaifai Et Café Huahine

Pros +

• Maui was an excellent hostess and treated us like family. It was great to be met at the airport and returned on the day we left. We arranged a scooter through Maui to get ourselves around Huahine and it was perfect, all very easy. We had a delicious breakfast each morning and we were delighted when Maui returned us to the airport to be farewelled with a hei - I was so touched I got a bit teary.
• Beautiful location at the sea side and view on the sea, carrying staff helping to rent a scooter or car, nice bungalov with terrace, fresh local fruit for breakfast:-)
• The location right at the water front and close to the waves of the lagoon's edge was simply magical. I could just spend hours sitting on the sand, taking in the ocean's beauty and sounds, and the amazing views of the surrouding mountains and coast - not mentioning the exceptionally cleary night skies. The property is made so that you directly live with the ocean, both from the room and the dining/living area, including a cute seashell and flower decoration in the rooms. Very calm except for the waves (lovely lulaby) and the ocean breeze makes it nicely refreshing (compared to elsewhere), and it is easy to be in your own private space outside. The location on the island is nicely clsoe (8 km) to the main town with shops, restaurants, gas stations, banks, harbor, aiport, etc. while still convenient to explore the south side of Huahine. The owner Flora is feisty and incredibly sweet and generous, ans she is a star when it comes to caring for her guests, doing what she can to help and make their stay special. Scooter or car rental across the street. Overall my 5-night stay there were very resourceful and I was pleasantly surprised.

Cons -

• Everything was great!
• Light on the terrace would be nice:-)
• Hard to find... Perhaps that you can dip but not swim right in front of the house, but the nice snorkelling beach just around the corner makes it easily forgettable.
