Hi All,

Myra, we have not been to Huahine, but Bora Bora is great no matter where you stay (although we loved and would highly recommend Bora Bora Lagoon Resort...and definitely dinner at Villa Mahana). Tahaa will not disappoint and you should feel exceptionally confident in your decision to both add it to your itinerary and to put it at the end. You never need to leave the resort. The spa, pool, views, food, service and people are just exceptional. Enjoy!!!
MYCchic, our trip was 10 days wiht 3 nights at each resort. It was perfect and we'd do it all again in a heart beat.

Just make sure you do not get beach bungalows 59 or 60. They are not nearly as private or out of the way as the other 10 beach bungalows. Those two are between the main lobby and pool, so there is much foot traffic outside of those bungalows.

wcclee thanks for the tip. The beach villas look wonderful. Looks like they are spead out too? Any recommendations as to the ones that look the furthes away from pool etc?

Hey Myra-

49 is the furthest from the pool, then 50, then 51...59 and 60 are definitely the closest. We loved #51 and can only hope we get it again when we go back!

We had #57 which was ok, the OWB were off to left of us a bit. I would say anything from 50-54 would be ideal.

We had #52. Was perfect as far as privacy and distance from the pool/"main" area of the resort. Plus, our plunge pool had sun for most of the day (until about 3pm) before the surrounding trees started to block it. (Not all bungalows are as fortunate.) So we were able to get a full day of sun in the privacy of our own bungalow before heading out to the pool or for kayaking, snorkeling, the spa, etc. It was wonderful and we would absolutely pick #52 again.

.We stayed in OWB # 32. We decided to save the best for last so we went for the OWB at Tahaa. It was very nice but if we were to return to Tahaa I would go for the Beach Suites. Myra could you send me your e-mail again and I will send you some pictures of just Tahaa. Hope your e-mail carrier will accept large files

A sunny beach villa would suit us best. From what I can tell some get less sun than others. Any way of telling which ones get the sun?

Myra,

Can't speak for the rest, but ours (52) was absolutely perfect. The neighboring bungalows were similarly situated and seemed to have similar tree coverage. Coincidentally, the neighboring bungalows (and ours) are all in the range of the most recommended beach bungalows (51-53).
Go for 52, you won't regret it!!

Ours #57 had similar sun.
