Raiatea Lodge Hotel

Great hotel near the sea. Near the airport, with posibility to rent a car directly in the hotel. From restaurant or pool you can watch amazing sun sets and Bora Bora contours. Restaurant is in very good level. To the nearest motu you can sail with hotel canoes.

We stayed in a bungalow and loved it. The bed was so comfortable and it had a sweet little porch. The pool at the hotel is lovely and the desk people are so kind and friendly. The sunsets were beautiful and so is the island of Raiatea. The historical sites are not to be missed. We would definitely stay here again.

Incredible snorkeling just off the property. Great food. Attentive staff. I will go back.

My whole stay was a pleasure and good, relaxing and not forgettable moments.

Great place for relaxing. Restaurant food is very good— surprising for a small resort. Enjoyed access to bikes and kayaks. Pool furniture very comfortable and pool refreshing.

Friends had stayed here and told us it was very nice, so we decided to give it a try for three nights, prior to boarding a Trade-Winds catamaran. It was a little pricey, but part of that was my own fault. I somehow booked a family suite for just the two of us. However, it also included partial board - breakfast and dinner. The hotel arranged transportation from the airport (for a fee of course), and the lady who met us was fantastic. She was very friendly and gave us a bit of history of the island on the way to the hotel. We were met at the hotel with a welcome beverage and the lady who checked us in explained everything and was very helpful in answering our questions. The room was absolutely beautiful. It turned out to be a two bedroom with a king bed in one room and two single beds in the other - which held our suitcases very well! lol The a/c worked nicely and the room was well furnished. There were french doors we could open, however, we didn't do that much because of the heat and humidity. One thing we didn't care for was the design of the bathroom. The shower was in one corner with no walls, so when you took a shower, the whole bathroom got wet. We had to dry off the rest of the floor after showering. Also, the sink is small and the mirror even smaller! Shaving was a challenge, between the small mirror and odd lighting. We arrived on a Wednesday, and they have a traditional Tahitian show and buffet on Wednesdays. It was a nice surprise and the dancers and music were very enjoyable, as was the buffet. The hotel provides (at no charge), beach towels, kayaks and bicycles. And there is a pool. We took advantage of everything in our three days there. The food in the restaurant was outstanding! We even had lunch in the restaurant and the warm brie salad was to die for. Drink prices were a little on the high side, but we understand it IS a resort island and a wonderful property. We would definitely stay here again!
