Hotels with Parking in Rangiroa

The food was excellent and the staff was wonderful.

The best place in the world for vacation

Hinamoe Lodge stay was amazing. Christian welcomed us and showed us the stay, they live right next to the property. Once you open the door you can directly see the lagoon, and sometimes you can even spot a black tip reef shark wandering close to the shore. The room has AC which was great, and we were cooking meals and sitting outside looking at the ocean. There is really good snorkeling right there with sharks. The kitchen is pretty much perfect and has everything you need, it even has a water filter and a microwave which was super helpful. The stay is also close to all the main diving centers, so it’s very convenient if you’re planning to dive in Rangiroa. Overall the stay was comfortable, peaceful, and the location right on the lagoon made it completely worth it.

Mana and her family could not have been more welcoming. From morning till night, they were there with smiling faces to help us with our every need. They felt like family by the end of our 7-day stay. We had booked a double room with a private bathroom. The bedroom was a good size for the two of us, and the bathroom was lovely and spacious. Breakfast (included) was very good. Everything was homemade, and the pancakes were delicious. When we had early excursions, they kindly served it to us at 7:00 AM instead of 7:30 AM. Our water bottles were refilled whenever we requested it, and we requested if a lot! You can not do laundry at the guesthouse, but the laundry thet Mana recommended was wonderful. For 2,590 xpf, they washed, dried, and folded a 5 kg bag of laundry and returned it the same day. The free bikes were invaluable. One day, we cycled to Avotura via the Pearl Farm (excellent explanation in both French and English), Ikimisho Pearl Shop (highly recommended), and Chez Rua (great lagoon-side food shack). Another day, we took the bikes on the ferry to Tiputa and cycled around there. Our favorite excursion by far was DD's drift snorkeling. We ended up doing it 3 times! It was an excellent value for 6,000 xpf. We drifted down the Tiputa Pass 2 or 3 times, snorkeled in the aquarium, and got to swim with dolphins (the highlight!) The Blue Lagoon trip was good, too, but you have to pay cash if Mana books it for you. If you book it online, you can pay by credit card. We under-estimated how much cash we would need and had to bike to the ATM at the airport for more! We ate well at both Puna and Chez Lili. Cards are accepted if you spend a minimum of 2,500 xpf at Puna and 3,000 xpf at Chez Lili. Our favorite restaurant, however, was Reira Lagon, where Mana made reservations for us twice.

reception staff who helped us a lot! U are the best!

The hosts were fantastic. Very welcoming and inviting. I arrived around midnight, I did not want to wake the hosts so I decided to walk over 3 miles to get from the docks to the hostel. Being such a small island, someone contacted the hosts (unbeknownst to me) and let them know I was walking… They picked me up around one in the morning and saved me about 2 miles of walking. Super friendly. A decent place to snorkel (relatively speaking based on my Snorkeling experience on this Motu) is right across from the hostel. BTW, the best place IMO (on this Motu) is “the aquarium “ … you’ll need to hire a small boat to get you there though. Super clear and tons of fish.

Hai the host was so nice to us! She is perfect! The location is great very close to the dolphins and the room was very clean! The bed is comfortable and the facilities very good!

Fun place to stay close to diving and with ocean views

Great location, very clean and comfortable! The staff were always available for assist and helped me find great scuba, snorkeling last minute.

The property and lodge were beautiful, clean, and comfortable!

Very happy with everything. We stayed 4 nights and the host helped us with the excursion and the car rental when we needed it. The location was perfect to get to the scuba diving place.

Great location, good water pressure, FRIENDLY and helpful host, privacy, nice patio, and good AC.
