Fare Pea Iti | Hotel in Patio, Leeward Islands

“This hotel is truly a hidden gem! The staff is absolutely wonderful, and the property is peaceful, beautifully maintained, and the perfect place to relax and unwind. The meals are delicious and offer a wonderful variety, making each one something to look forward to. If you have the opportunity to visit Taha’a, staying here is a must! We couldn’t recommend it more highly and would love to return.”

“The private water taxi to the resort was only the first surprise of many that made this one of the finest resort properties we've ever seen. This has our unconditional and greatest recommendations. Jeff and Rika Kent”

“Mauruuru roa to all of you!”

“Marvellous and stunning Resort with excellent service from arrival to departure. Very friendly and helpful staff! I would recommend to book a bungalow directly at the sea. They offer also tours by boat and land. I would definitely stay there again !”

“The Fare Pea Iti Lodge is charming and relaxed; we enjoyed the location, the meals and the family atmosphere. The expeditions to visit the island of Taha'a and out to a motu were excellent. It happened to be festival month and so we were also treated to an outing to see an authentic Taha'a dance exposition. Our bungalow was comfortable and we enjoyed the traditional, rustic design. More homey than hotel-ish. The guest wifi failed during our stay, which was inconvenient, but this led us to slow down and be present more than we otherwise would have. The only source of some stress was communication. Our emails before arrival were not answered very consistently. And we did not realize that no staff members there spoke English. We had to dust off our highschool French in order to communicate. The manager did not seem eager to help bridge the gap, for example by helping communicate through Google Translate, which they assured us they were familiar with. Perhaps anglophone visitors are not their priority. Other than that difficulty, we felt that the staff were remarkably kind and interested in our enjoyment and in our having the opportunity to appreciate Taha'a culture.”

“Fare Pea Iti exceeded my expectations for relaxing and unwinding. Poe, the Captain and the rest of the staff were so welcoming and friendly. Upon our check in,we were greeted with lei and fresh juice. They were very informative about the property and inquired about our personal preferences. Our beach bungalow was terrific and we had a private beach area to ourselves, along with the swimming pool to use at all hours. We used their complimentary bikes every day. Poe arranged for a rental car to come to us and they even picked it up there. We used their Hobie Cat one afternoon and cruised back and forth in the lagoon to the motu. The food was exceptional and they made us feel like family. ”

“Absolutely wonderful stay. The hosts make you feel like you are part of the family. Thank you for an amazing anniversary.”

“It was a lovely ‘bed and breakfast’ type place with your own bungalow. Very small , Staff were extremely friendly and accommodating. Was exactly as what we expected for a very small quaint establishment”
