Experience unique à Tikehau
Lorsqu’on arrive à Tikehau on est tout de suite subjugué par la beauté de son lagon et ses couleurs turquoise incroyables. Puis vient la découverte du Fafarua lodge; la solitude, le calme, la vie au ralenti…. Tout est parfait et c’est un endroit dont on a du mal à se détacher. Patrick et Eva sont des hôtes incroyables, Patrick a la passion de nous faire découvrir les secrets du lagon et Eva fait une cuisine simple mais tout simplement exceptionnelle. Nous n’avons qu’une hâte, y retourner ! Bravo et merci pour tout, cet endroit est une merveille à ne pas manquer.

Return to Eden
Patrick and Eva have combined a slice of motu life with the experience of Eden. Excursions exploring the flora, fauna, culture, and history of the motu are set in an isolated, heaven-sent paradise. The open-air guest house ushers in tropical breezes and amazing views of sunrise. The sunset over the lagoon followed by the appearance of planets and stars is unforgettable and witnessed completely uninterrupted – no other person, boat, car, plane, train, business, street, or store for miles. There is no stress because Patrick and Eva provide and address all needs. Patrick’s passion for life on the atoll is evident in his excitement in sharing the smallest of details and in how, after twenty plus years, he still becomes awestruck from the beauty, complexity, and balance of creation. Eva’s hospitality is experienced through the perfect meals, the order of the house, and the generous accommodations of food allergies. We shall return.

Absolute Paradise
We had an incredible stay at Fafarua Lodge in the summer of 2022! If you love island life but aren't into crowds, this is the place for you. Patrick and Eva are gracious hosts and gave us an unforgettable vacation. Eva made the most delicious meals and desserts (the pies were soooo good!), and was kind enough to accommodate our pescatarian diet. Patrick took us on a different excursion each morning, allowing us to explore the beautiful island of Tikehau.
The excursions provided so many unique experiences, including exploring a motu inhabited by so many birds that it felt like we were in the middle of a David Attenborough special! We went snorkeling in multiple locations (saw so many fish, coral, two octopi, a sea turtle, small sharks, and rays), visited pink sand beaches, explored an abandoned motu, fished (trolling and also on the beach), and went on a night expedition to see coconut crabs (they're massive).
Since Fafarua Lodge only books one party at a time, it's an amazing opportunity to enjoy the beautiful motu with just the people you're traveling with. We loved the routine we had there: breakfast, excursion, lunch, reading/napping in a hammock, exploring on our own (kayaking, walking, snorkeling), enjoying the sunset on the beach while dinner was prepared - it was a dream vacation! We hope we'll be lucky enough to visit again.

Expérience à ne pas manquer
Et que dire du Fafarua Lodge si ce n'est, calme et tranquillité, accueil, disponibilité et gentillesse de nos hôtes ainsi que des repas aux saveurs inattendues ; sans oublier les excursions magiques en bateau sur le lagon et les plongées dans les jardins de corail. Merci à Eva et Patrick pour nous avoir fait partager cette expérience hors des sentiers battus.

A stay in paradise
The motu (little islet in Tahitien) is really far away from everything. We stayed there for 5 weeks and enjoyed it profoundly. Patrick showed us around the island of Tikehau and we discovered places you would never have found by yourself or on a normal excursion offered by hotels. The food was excellent, Ewa deserves minimum on michelin star. We will be definetly back. Merci e nauruuru to our hosts.

Magical Getaway!
When I first started thinking about what I wanted to do for my 60th Birthday, renting a private island in the middle of nowhere instantly came to my mind….Fafarua Lodge was the epitome of That Dream! I searched many locations but always came back to this Island…I’m soo happy we went , hidden away, to this island (Motu) in the atoll know as Tikehau. A Perfect Getaway, hosted by an Amazing Couple, Patrick and Evaline! So attentive and caring, always offering a new escape by boat or stroll around the islands. History and knowledge abounded. Couldn’t imagine having a more generous couple as our Hosts. Breathtaking beauty constantly. Marvelous meals created by Eva herself. So much to do, paddle boarding, kayaking, snorkeling, boating, fishing, stargazing, sunsets and sunrises that are truly inconceivable, and plenty of quiet time too. Whatever is your desire for a rejuvenating experience can be found here. House is simple, open and the breezes were well enjoyed, fans at night kept the mosquitoes at bay but there are great bed nettings to surround you if you prefer. Open showers, half inside and half outside were a real treat! I really have nothing wrong to say about this magical oasis except that I wish it weren’t so far away…but that’s part of its mystique. Truly the most remarkable spot for my Birthday celebration! Once again, THANK YOU Eva and Patrick for sharing your Heavenly Home!!!
We all Loved it! XOX Todd, Andrea, Shane and Bruce

The perfect private getaway!
My wife and I returned to the US after spending three weeks in French Polynesia. It was our third visit to the islands and it was truly a fantastic trip. We stayed five nights at the Hilton Moorea, six nights at Fafarua Lodge in Tikehau and seven nights at LeTahaa on Tahaa. We had stayed at both the Hilton and LeTahaa on our previous visit in 2021, but the wildcard in our trip was our planned stay at Fafarua Lodge on Tikehau. We were excited about going, but had no idea what to expect.
Fafarua Lodge is owned and managed by Patrick and Evaline and is located on a private motu on Tikehau. When you stay here, you are the only guests on the motu. Fafarua Lodge is not as well known as the Hilton or LeTahaa, but we were intrigued by the idea of having an entire island to ourselves so we booked six nights there. Upon arriving inTikehau, we were met at the airport by Patrick and after a 30 minute boat ride, we arrived at Fafarua Lodge.
Now, If you’re looking for a five star resort with shopping, sugar sand and a staff of waiters waiting to take your drink orders, then Fafarua is probably not the ideal place for you. Instead, what you will find is a wonderful opportunity to learn about what it is like to live as a local on a remote island in the Pacific. The lodge is self sufficient. The electricity is solar generated and the water is collected from rainfall and then filtered and UV purified for drinking and showering. It tastes every bit as good as the water from my tap here at home in the US.
Tikehau is an atoll, so the beach at Fafarua is not sugar sand, but composed of sand mixed with hard coral, so we really recommend sandals and/or water shoes with a very sturdy sole for walking the beaches. Small black-tipped sharks frequent the beach, but typically scurry away if you enter the water. At night, the hermit crabs come out in droves and you really have to watch carefully where you step so that you don’t step on them. One morning, I found two of them competing with me for space in the outdoor shower as well! 😂
The house in which you stay is a traditional island style home that is very comfortable, nicely furnished and immaculately clean. They have a very well stocked wine chiller with a nice selection of local and French wines, champagne as well as soft drinks and beer.
Each morning, Eva cooked us a breakfast of pancakes, eggs, toast, fresh fruit and a selection of breads which was served to us outdoors in the Fare Potee, an open sided building with a palm roof. Lunch was typically light…a salad or light stir fry and dinner was most often an entree of fish purchased from a local fisherman and prepared with either French or Polynesian recipes. The food was fantastic and I know both of us gained weight eating here!
Each day included a different boat excursion to see some of the sights on Tikehau. At breakfast, Patrick would stop to discuss the options available for the day's excursion and we would agree upon a plan - which in great part depended on wind and weather. Our first day's excursion was a visit to the marine bird sanctuary on an island in the Tikehau lagoon which was fascinating and we were impressed with Patrick’s knowledge of the birds and their habitat. Other excursions included snorkeling in some truly fantastic places and some visits to some of the more beautiful beaches on Tikehau that Patrick shared with us.
The isolation you experience here and its accompanying sense of privacy on the island is amazing. As I mentioned, you are the only guests on the motu.You can walk the beaches from motu to motu in either direction for a couple of miles and likely not run into anyone so if you feel the urge to sunbathe au natural, skinny dip or just run naked down the beach you could certainly do it here, although Patrick requested that if you want to do that, go to the motu next door 😂…(the lodge has three motus).
One of the highlights of our day was after dinner when we could grab a bottle of wine and go down to the beach and watch the most amazing sunsets that you have ever seen!
I could go on here forever, but the best way to learn about this place is to experience it. We recommend it to anyone looking to experience what it’s like to live as the locals do on a motu. The big difference being, of course, that we didn’t have to do any of the work. We just relaxed and enjoyed ourselves. Patrick and Evaline were wonderful hosts and Jill and I will be visiting here again on our next visit to FP.

An unforgettable stay
First of all, we liked the comfort of our accommodation, whether it was the quality of the bedding, the space in the living room / living room / dining room, and sufficient fresh water.
What about meals? Homemade pancakes and jams at the breakfast, topped with the fish we caught the day before. Thank you also for showing flexibility in order to respond to our desires of the moment.
We keep an extraordinary memory of the activities that you organized for us, more particularly this “hunt” for Kaveu in the forest of the motu.
I was also impressed with your knowledge of the history, flora and fauna of the island.
In short, this stay delighted us.

Beyond our wildest dreams
We were intrigued with this listing and did not know what to expect. The adventure began when Patrick met us at the airport and we boated to this private island. Such beauty, calm and privacy. Living on a stand-alone island has many challenges and it is so interesting to see how Evaline and Patrick have dealt with these through time with solar power and all modern conveniences (including a wine cellar!). Three hammocks, kayaks, paddleboards are excellent ways to relax. Patrick is passionate and knowledgable about the ecosystems and history of this magical atoll. The hiking, beachcombing and snorkeling excursions were so fun. Watching stars in a place with absolutely no light pollution is priceless in itself.
As if this was not enough, Evaline is an excellent chef, creating scrumptous dishes with mostly local fish and fruit, but supplementing with provisions from Tahiti proper.
We will all carry a bit of this beauty with us. We were so sad to leave.
