Manaeva Lodge

Fare Manaeva could do with a facelift. At over AUD $400 a night I expect something a lot better. The place is run down. I’d give it 2 stars maximum.

This property is not a lodge, it is a room in someone’s house. Photos are very misleading. There are no locks on the doors and we weren’t given any keys to lock the doors for our safety or security of our belongings. There was one sheet on the bed, no duvet or anything. Finally, there were a plethora of roosters in and around the property and we knew we would get no sleep. I hope Hotels.com removes this listing and more importantly I hope Hotels.com gives as a refund as we had to spend $600 to get a room at the Hilton Papeete.

Beautiful and very kind staff

Room was clean and very comfortable staff was very courteous.

Perfect room for one night stay before flying back to the USA. Host was helpful and did timely drop-off at airport the next morning. Highly recommend.
