The Pension Taitaa in Tubuai welcomes visitors in a friendly, family atmosphere. The simple, nicely furnished rooms offer a relaxing setting. But beyond the comfort, it is the immersion in local life that makes a stay here so enriching: sharing the daily life of the inhabitants, discovering the traditions of the Austral Islands, and meeting people for unforgettable memories.
A Pension in the Countryside in Tubuai
Just a few minutes’ drive from the airport, the Taitaa pension is located on the northern slope of Tubuai Island. Leaving the coastal road, you quickly arrive in the heart of a huge tropical garden covered with fruit trees. The peaceful setting promises a relaxing vacation, equidistant from the lagoon and the mountains. However, the main village is only 800 meters from the pension: Tubuai is not very big and everyone knows each other.
Your accommodation appears from this tropical setting in the shadow of Mount Taitaa, which gave the pension its name. Once the introductions are over, it’s time to discover your new home! The Taitaa pension enjoys an ideal location and, at first glance, its amenities are charming and help you to relax and unwind.
Discover the Adjoining Rooms
The pension consists of several guest rooms occupying a long building. However, it almost looks like a series of small apartments, independent and adjoining, with all the necessary comforts. Each accommodation has access to the shared terrace and its own bathroom. Functional and practical, the rooms are quite large and can accommodate two to three people, with the same number of sleeping options.
The Polynesian decor is discreet but very pleasant, adding a touch of lightness to the overall feel. There is no air conditioning, but fans provide the desired coolness, while mosquito nets allow you to sleep free from insects. And of course, children are welcome at the Taitaa pension!
Choosing Half-Board
Next to the rooms, guests can gather in the large common room to enjoy breakfast or share an evening meal. It is also a place to relax and meet other guests, and you will quickly feel at home. The Taitaa pension offers half-board accommodation with hearty and delicious meals made from local produce. Fresh fruit and fish are the order of the day!
There is an extraordinary conviviality at the table. The cuisine is highly praised and puts everyone in a good mood. This warm atmosphere is also thanks to your hosts, who are unfailingly kind and hospitable. The couple who run the pension will ensure your comfort and well-being, and will also accompany you during your activities.
