Pension Manava

Ra'iatea & Taha'a


This is a friendly, well-managed place with four spacious bungalows, all with kitchens and private bathrooms (hot water), dotting a tropical garden. There’s a bit of road noise, but nothing to lose sleep over. For swimming and snorkelling, ask to be dropped off on nearby Motu Iriru (1500 CFP, minimum four people).

Excursions to Marae Taputapuatea and Faaroa River are also available. No meals are made at the pension except breakfast (1000 CFP), but the owners can order a catering service direct to your bungalow or drive you to other snacks and restaurants for 500 to 1000 CFP per person. Airport transfers are free.
