Yolande, a charming Ra’iatea mama, keeps this cute-as-a-button place on a white-sand beach in shipshape. Not much English is spoken but good vibes abound and this place is a fabulous deal if you’re looking for something that’s really local style. Rooms all have sunken kitchens with adjacent hot-water bathrooms. Meals are available in a small fare facing the sea (breakfast 1000 CFP, full dinner 2500 CFP), kayaks are free and airport transfers cost 1300 CFP per group one way. No credit cards.
