Hakamanu Lodge

"A quiet place to spend two or three days of relaxation. The staff is very kind and ready to help you with any problem. Breakfast and dinner well cooked, tasty but in a small quantity and not very diverse. The reef in front of the location is not very beautiful, but there are sharks and you can do diving and snorkel tours."

"The reef in front of the location is not beautiful."

"Perfect island getaway! Rose is an amazing host. They will pick you up from the airport and take you to a private island in the atoll, where you can relax and enjoy the most incredible scenery. The water is stunning, and the rooms are very comfortable. They also make delicious meals for you, which you look forward to every day! Highly recommend"

"The showers are salt water, which can be a bit of a surprise, but it’s an island, so it’s all part of the experience"

"Very interesting authentic place. Real Tuamotu. Good charming island. Nice friendly people. Capitan knows the see. Chef cooks testy. Snorkeling with the sharks. Nature. In public area there is a fridge and microwave. Good idea to take with you as much water drinks and dry snakes as you can. Take all kinds of some protections to."

"If you have any problems with your health please don't go, it's not for you, it is very hot there, no air-condition area, and the nearest doctor in 40 min by boat."

"Stunning location, private island with a few bungalows that are truly in the middle of nowhere, for total relaxation and disconnect from the world. Clean rooms, nice and kind owners who run the place Kayaks available to explore the untouched islands around"

"Salty water in shower and sink It’s half board, and dinners were okay (medium quantity and quality). Breakfasts are simple but just what you need. Be aware it’s a remote location and pretty basic services are provided, which for us was totally okay but not for everybody"

"Everything here is out of this world. I gave some other properties a 10, but this one worth more than that. Just go there and enjoy. The ocean, the lagoon, the simplicity, the silence, the waves, the nature and I could go on and on. It’s a very small dot on this planet, so don’t go there with 5* hotel expectation, but with 100* experiences. You will find a confortable and spacious space, very clean and you will find people. With heart, with empaty, smiling and singing, living their lifes."

"I honestly don’t understand the comments on some people. This island represents 0,00001 % of this earth. Respect the place and enjoy it. Respect that people working on this accommodation must also get some rest, they may not be there for you 100% of the time. Even so, they will help you even in their resting time if they will be around. You are communicated from the begin about the rest time (13:00-18:00), there are posts with their schedule and it’s no one fault that you are not reading, not respecting. Even priori to booking it’s mention to let them know in advance, if you need any other services. It’s a very small island, they need to prepare in advance. Don’t come here if you’re looking for a 7 star serving. This is not for you. People who appreciate nature and simplicity will enjoy this"

"Such a lovely place. We loved our stay. Beautiful location with kayaks and amazing snorkling."

"Everything was great. It would have been maybe good to be able to buy beers / get water during the times when staff weren't available..."

"Beautifully located on a remote motu with view over the lagoon. Already much to see when snorkeling right next to the beach and kayaks were available for further explorations of the lagoon and the channels. Lovely staff, felt like friends immediately, rather than customer. Food was fresh and plenty. Pancakes and Baguette for breakfast and three courses for dinner. Mainly fish with sides."

"Wifi unreliable, tap/ shower water unfiltered, fruit not always fresh. Nothing major when considering the remote location."

"Isolated situation, calme, in direct contact with the lagoon. Good cooking Kindness of the staff"

"Very far from the village and airport (30 minutes by boat), no shuttle service except for the airport, hence difficult to organise daytrips."

"Everything: the location in the middle of the ocean, the food, the fact that there are only few rooms and you get your privacy, the kayaks and snorkeling gear available to guests"

"Nothing"

"Emplacement exceptionnel Repas variés et buen cuisinés"

"Dessalinisateur pour une eau plus douce"
