This is one of those places where I almost don't want to leave a review because it feels like such an amazing secret find. Yes, it is a bit of a haul to get there. Flight to Tahiti, then flight to Tikehau, then a 30 minute boat ride (be prepared to get wet and maybe consider taking Dramamine). But for those who are willing to go off the beaten path this is truly a remarkable place. I have traveled all over the world and have stayed in some pretty amazing and unique places, many of them off the beaten path. But this one is way up there as far as incredible. You are basically on your own little motu with only 4 bungalows, all not more than 3-4 meters from the crystal blue waters of the lagoon. There is coral and amazing fish and reef sharks EVERYWHERE. And almost no other people! There are kayaks free for your use. You can snorkel right outside your bungalow. The bungalows themselves were lovely and seemed quite new with very comfortable beds. And, one of the biggest surprises was the food. We have been to French Polynesia before and I understand that getting food to remote islands is difficult and expensive. So we weren't expecting much. WOW were we wrong. Rose and Kati (I hope I got her name right?!?) prepared these amazing huge three course meals every night. Fresh fish every night, amazing desserts. Incredible! I really don't know how they did it. Thank you Rose and Kati!!! It was a little bit of luxury in a paradise at the end of the world. We will definitely be back!

Wish I could give the lodge more than five stars. It is on a private island which is a half hour boat ride from the airport. The staff were more than gracious. The bungalows overlook the water and are very clean. Loved the dinners and breakfasts, very fresh fish and vegetables. They arranged for Manu to take us to the Bird Island which was amazing. We would stay here again if given the chance.

A special desert island!

Remote, beautiful setting with a small team of friendly people to look after you. The free kayaks are great for exploring and fun snorkelling in the channels (less clear and less interesting in the lagoon itself). Food was plentiful and delicious. meals are taken communally which can be a bit daunting unless your French is very good!

Superbe

L’endroit est absolument magnifique. Il y a une lumiĂšre et des couleurs exceptionnelles : les bleus et verts du lagon contrastent avec la teinte rosĂ©e du sable, les ciels Ă©clatants, les couchers de soleil flamboyants et les nuages blancs ou sombres. L’eau est si pure qu’elle les rĂ©flĂ©chit parfaitement. Ce descriptif ne vaut-il pas pour tous les motus de Tikehau? Vrai, mais les couleurs y semblent moins vives, les contrastes moins saisissants. La pension, trĂšs propre, est tenue par une femme aussi qu’intelligente : Rose. Elle cuisine merveilleusement bien et s’occupe d’absolument tout Hakamanu, ce qui demande de l’organisation. Avec elle, il n’y a jamais de problĂšme, seulement des solutions. La pension respecte l’écologie des lieux : Ă©nergie solaire et eau de pluie traitĂ©e par osmose. D’ailleurs, Rose fait installer des panneaux supplĂ©mentaires afin de gĂ©nĂ©rer un surplus. Ayant beaucoup voyagĂ© dans les Ăźles, je recommande la beautĂ© sauvage de Hakamanu et celle des bungalows donnant sur le lagon. FenĂȘtres ouvertes, il y fait dĂ©licieusement frais nuit et jour, entre l’air du lagon et le vent de l’ocĂ©an. Il s’agit d’un sĂ©jour pour les contemplatifs. Loin des animations habituelles, vous nagerez tranquillement avec les raies manta et vous baignerez sur des plages dĂ©sertes. Vous serez accueillis avec simplicitĂ© et gentillesse. Albert et Manu vous emmĂšneront en excursion. Rose s’occupera de tout.
