There is a private entrance at the homestay for the convenience of those who stay. Featuring family rooms, this property also provides guests with a picnic area.

I did not ask for a quite room, we loved the location, was located in behind a service station and small small supermarket, sounds busy but down the lane and into our area was great, we could walk all around town, bars, market, shopping, museums, everywhere. Great clean pool for a dip, and best bed I have slept in ... including my own. As in the islands there is island day to day life, your up early, roosters, dogs barking, weed eaters (grass cutters) always on the go. Loved the place we stayed 2 nights on arrival and came back for our last night before flying out, we hired our car from here also onsite. We only had a bed and shower/toilet area, fridge and microwave, plates and glasses etc, table and chairs outside lovely area. Would totally say great place to stay if your not into flash but clean.

So glad we chose to stay here. Fred was a fantastic host. He allowed us a late check-out, since our flight was leaving in the evening and he gave us the best tips for our stay. We followed his advice exactly and had a great time. So thank you Fred. We definitely recommend staying here if you go to Tahiti.

Set in Faaa, 5.3 km from Paofai Gardens and 14 km from Museum of Tahiti, Airport Pamatai Studio offers spacious air-conditioned accommodation with a terrace and free WiFi. Private parking is available on site at this recently renovated property. The accommodation provides a 24-hour front desk and full-day security for guests.

The host is a lovely, adorable and warm person. We stayed for two weeks in French Polynesia and in some fancy hotels. However, this place was by far the best in terms of feeling welcome and feeling the warmth of Polynesian people. The bungalow is super clean, modern and has a range of cooking facilities. The host prepared us some wonderful dinner for a very reasonable price that we enjoyed with a most beautiful view of Papeete. The host also picked us up at the airport and dropped us off again in the middle of the night for our flight home. It was just the perfect way of finishing our holiday.

We're very glad we found this place for the night. We received warm, very accommodating welcome even though our plane was delayed and we arrived late at night. The setting is wonderful and you can hear the river and wake up to palm trees. Would definitely stay again if we need a place in Tahiti

    The family that owns and runs this small homestay was very nice and accommodating. They offered pick up @ the cruise ship pier and transfers to the airport. They even offer tours of the Island! Just contact them for prices. The bedroom was clean, comfortable and had air conditioning. We liked that they had a pool too. You can easily walk to the market and pier. We would definitely stay here again.

Bed was very comfortable, and air con units in the lounge and bed room was fantastic. Great location in the centre of Papeete and easy to access. Good host who was very communicative and offered advice on things to see and do in Tahiti.
