 PEACE ON THE WATERFRONT:Pension Tupuna is peacefully situated on the waterfront of beautiful Bourayne bay on French Polynesia's Society Island of Huahine- Iti. The bay is one of the most picturesque parts of the entire island and our property is fairly remote in its secretive location. At night, you can hear the waves of the nearby ocean crashing against the coral reefs. During the day, you'll be enchanted and soothed by the lovely sounds of birds chirping in the surrounding forest. We have a nice little private sand beach right on our property and are located (by good fortune) nearby one of the nicest strips of beach on the entire island, the location of the now famous but non-existant Hana-Iti 5 star hotel. (destroyed by a hurricane in 1995) We're also not far from the village of Fare, but you'd probably have a hard time finding us the first time without a guide. (Don't worry, we'll pick you up from the airport in our custom 4 wheel drive vehicle at no charge.) |

In addition, there are 2 more communal washrooms in close vacinity of your bungalows. There are also laundry facilities available on request. |
NATURAL LANDSCAPING, BEAUTIFUL SETTING: Landscaping with the beautiful and natural surroundings of Huahine is our passion! There are plenty of trees and flowering plants including vanilla, mape, and tamanu, among others. The Tupuna grounds and gardens are all artfully designed from local, native plants, and lovingly arranged to please the eye and spirit. We are connesseurs of plants and enjoy creating art objects and working with things we can find right here on the Tupuna grounds. This allows us to offer you more than just a stay on Huahine, but an experience of the island that you will be able to take home with you and dream about... See our photo gallery for lots more pictures of our island and our pension! OUR ROOMS AND COTTAGES: In the same spirit as our carefully landscaped grounds, our cottages are designed to make you feel comfortable and a part of your natural surroundings. Cut and shingled from wood right here on the grounds, they are simple, single rooms, with large beds, a night-table, and electric lights. We decorate them with art and fabrics that are interesting to the eye and soothing to the taste... one of a kind creations we enjoy sharing with our guests!
All the rooms are clean with comfortable bedding, and all equipped with mosquito nets, if you should need them... CUSTOM COOKING, COMFORTABLE LOUNGE: We love to cook tasty meals for you in our comfortable lounge! In order to prepare the best meals for you, we'll need to know your tastes, likes and dislikes. Then, we'll purchase the fresh food from the market and cook it the same night we buy it. Our nightly gourmet dinners are only 2,000 cfp/ per person and compete in quality with any of the finest restaurants on the island! (In fact, one of our chefs used to be the head chef at Huahine's only 5 star restaurant.) If you're the self sufficient type, it's no problem to make your own meals and buy your own food. Our kitchen is equipped with a freezer, refrigerator, and gas stove for cooking. You'll enjoy your lunches, dinner and drinks in our specially decorated "island lounge" complete with woodwork and natural sculpting from things we find on Huahine. We can listen to music if you wish, create custom "island" jewelry, sip exotic cocktails, party as late into the evening as you want, or discuss your plans for the next day on Huahine.  ACTIVITIES IN THE AREA:We love to share our knowledge of Huahine island with you. We enjoy helping you plan and coordinate many activities including: Renting cars for circle island exploration, deep sea fishing expeditions, world class scuba diving, horse back riding, snorkeling tours, and much more. On the Tupuna grounds: * Kayaks and midsized hobie cat sailboats are available for use at no extra charge. And of course swimming and sun worshipping is always a good option. Our own specialty activities include: * Garden Tour or botanical visit of our garden (we have many varieties of flowers and tropical fruits trees) * 4x4 trip around the island with Franck or Loretta at 4000 cfp per person (to see archeological sites, old fish traps of Maeva village, peal farm fresh water blue eye ills, beautiful landscape and fauna of huahine). See our photo gallery for more pictures of the activities available to you on Huahine! KAYA and her girlfriend:  Kaya is our classic Huahine dogfriend! She is 5 years old now and still very playful. She has a wonderful spirit and personality and is very, very friendly. In 2006, we got Kaya another dogfriend to keep her company. What kind of dogs are they? We have no idea, but they look amazingly similiar to many other dogs on the island! We love their skills as watchdogs for our property and know they look forward to meeting you "in person", or, in their case, "in doggie". Note: Both animals are quiet, clean, and well behaved. For those people who don't like dogs, no problem, we understand and can keep them away from you if you wish. |
