The owner of the lodge is the most amazing person we’ve ever met in Haiti. She went above and beyond to make our stay beyond expectation. She woke up at two in the morning to drop us at the airport for free with her beautiful dog. She was always welcoming and made us feel very comfortable and at home thank you for everything. We really appreciate you. Definitely recommend to stay five minutes from the airport.

The description of distances to airport and restaurants said they were a 7 minute walk. Totally false. I walked for over 15 minutes and was barely halfway there. This "lodge" consists of some rooms under their house in a neighborhood high up on a steep hill. I would not have chosen this place had the info been more accurate. The early check in and airport pickup was what made us pick this lodge.

We stayed one night at this lodge, and it was perfect for a stay close to the airport. The staff were very friendly and welcoming — we even received a traditional Tahitian flower necklace on arrival, which was a lovely touch. The decoration had a charming Tahiti style, making the place feel warm and authentic. Airport transfer was well organized and on time. Highly recommended for a convenient and pleasant stay.

Disappointed

The room was clean and had good AC. From the description on the website doesn’t really match what you get. The place is a home where they have built three guest rooms underneath the house and one on the level of the home. They do have a small kitchen area Where you can prepare meals, but as far as any attractions or restaurants near, the lodge isn’t available. If you stay here, you definitely need a car to get around. The staff was helpful and taking us to the airport.

The proximity to the airport, the transport to and from the airport, and the quiet neighborhood was a plus. The breakfast was not cheap $20 US, but was excellent and very convenient. We arrived late into Papeete and this was an excellent choice after a long flight.

Very close to airport, quiet

We had a good one night stay coming in from a cruise. Hotel shuttled us to airport the next morning at 5:30 am, which was too early for their breakfast but we got a good cup of coffee and croissant before breakfast hours. Also got a round trip lift into town 1st night for dinner in Papeete (Great town with a really lively waterfront!). Comfy king bed, quiet neighborhood. Several steps here and there on the property with which we were fine, but keep in mind if you travel w/ heavy bags or don't do steps. Or ask if there is a 1st floor room. A friendly, convenient stay

So concerning

I'm so confused about the high ratings on this property. My room didn't look like the photos, I was directly adjacent to the shared kitchen (concerning for my privacy), and there wasn't any way to lock my door (extremely unsettling as a solo female traveler). Attaching pictures I took which show how different bathroom situation was as compared to the listing. I was thankfully only there for one night, which I spent uncomfortable and on edge the whole time.

My husband and I booked a 1-night stay at Manaeva Lodge before our flight back home from Tahiti. We reached out to the lodge ahead of time to request late check-out but never heard back. When we arrived, no one was at the desk, and the waiting area looked disheveled. We eventually got into our suite, which was clean and cool, and the proprietor brought us flower leis and fresh fruit, which were really lovely. But when it came time to go, we were not provided with the promised late check-out, and instead had to scramble out of our room, and take a cab, (rather than the free shuttle) to the airport, hours early. Ultimately, a somewhat disappointing conclusion to our stay in beautiful French Polynesia!

The owner Reva was super-nice and accommodating. She personally picked us up from and took us too the airport which was very close by. Reva also had some fresh fruit and juice brought to us when we arrived at the lodge which was a nice touch. Also helped us with additional taxi arrangements. The lodge itself was cute with a common area you could enjoy and make some coffee in the morning. Thank you, Reva!
