“In Punaauia, this property stands out with its overwater bungalows and Pacific's largest sand-bottomed pool, a bold statement of relaxation. I think the blend of French culinary finesse and Polynesian warmth creates a distinctive experience. Its location, while tranquil, keeps you connected to Tahiti's attractions.”
