Beautiful retreat on the Motu Tuvahine

The ultimate island fantasy, VAHINE ISLAND – Private Island Resort & Spa is a remote Polynesian hideaway on its own private island with just nine beachfront and overwater bungalows hidden among coconut trees and facing a pristine blue lagoon. Promising warm, tropical seas, mouth-watering cuisine and carefree sun-filled days, this is truly paradise on earth.

Choose between VAHINE ISLAND's beachfront and overwater villas or suites in La Villa Royale. To enjoy the lagoon’s abundant wildlife, there is an aquarium table in the water bungalows to watch and feed the tropical fish that swim in the water below. Beachfront bungalows have a lazy hammock on their spacious decks with fabulous views of the lagoon and nearby Bora Bora.

Enjoy your stay!

Inter-island flights from Tahiti to Raiatea/Tahaa

Air Tahiti offers six to ten daily flights between 6am-7:30pm.
Several flights a day on Air Tahiti serve as links from Raiatea to the other islands and vice versa: Bora Bora (10min), Papeete (40min) and Huahine (15min).
Arrivals to Raiatea Airport are between 9am-3pm.
Departures from Vahine Island are between 8am-3pm (leaving 2 hours before your inter-island flight).
For flights outside these hours, you may need to spend a night on Raiatea (Vahine can advise on local hotels, or contact us before you book your ticket to discuss your travel plans).

Boat rides from Raiatea Airport to Vahine Island

The hotel can organise a shuttle boat to pick you up at Raiatea Airport, if you advise them of your flight details - the captain will meet you in the arrivals hall and escort you to the waiting boat two minutes’ walk away. Just look out for the Vahine Island welcome panel.
The trip to Vahine Island (which is 10km away), takes 35 minutes dependent on weather conditions.
For your safety and comfort, the hotel doesn’t operate night transfers across the lagoon, so be sure to choose flights within daylight hours.
Helicopter transfers are also available.

The hotel is in the most beautiful location, the staff is excepcional, and the food delicious. It is very private and small, I fet like I was on my own private island. Will definitely return in the future.
