This place is wonderful and we hope to be back - But know what to expect. This is a dive shop with basic accommodations, and that’s what we wanted. Great staff, exceptional views of the ocean. No fluff, no pretension, no show …except for nature. Sharks galore! The only negative point: the food could be a little better.

It’s not for those seeking a modern resort stay. Buildings are old and craftsmanship of work done on structures is only fair. Rooms have many insect and dated fixtures. No hot water and pressure is very low. This place is for diving and snorkeling. Nothing else. It’s all about the sharks. Most of the staff is great. The dive director quit after only a week. No reason given. We lost a day of diving because of that. It is an incredible dive. Worth the trip!!!

This was a truly amazing spot. As a solo woman traveler, I really appreciated having my own bungalow along the water, while also enjoying all of the meals together with the other guests on the dock. Incredible views, gorgeous excursion to the Sables Roses, and delicious food. It was such a treat to have logistics taken care of (meals, transportation) and to be so close to the dive club, diving sites, and snorkeling current. Rustic but you have everything you need to be comfortable and really relax. This experience, and the type of amazing people that are attracted to places like this, have really spoiled me for all future trips. Mauruuru, Tetamanu! You will be haunting my dreams for some time.

We had a wonderful stay. The staff was very friendly and helpful. The food was varied and plentiful. The lodging and food package is a great deal given the cost of dining in French Polynesia.

The accommodations are rustic but well kept and clean. All bungalows have great access to the sea and the incredible snorkeling in the house reef. It was well worth making the long trek to this remote paradise.

It was great being away from it all and being at a very remote place. Overall I had a great stay. The diving is amazing, especially the Wall of Sharks. Please note that the place is very basic. Don’t expect luxury. The food and transport was included in the room rate, that was nice. However, the food wasn’t special and also repetitive. Breakfast is mostly just pancakes with a small piece of fruit (nothing else). For lunch and dinner it was typically rice, pasta, chicken and a fresh fish. I know there are so many good Tahitian dishes, but I didn’t see much of them. I stayed on Sauvage motu. The cabins are very basic, be prepared for that, if you like camping this might be fine, if you hate camping you will hate the accommodation. Staff was friendly

To get to this beautiful water based place, we have to give up luxuries.
The bed is fine, no A/C.
They could upgrade the unpowered shower with a bigger tube.
They are in the middle of no where, and I was grateful for what I had.
The dogs barking remote some management at midnight and you may benefit from earplugs- but the Pink Sands excursion and sharks are amazing.
Snorkeling in crystal clear water with fish that are still thriving is amazing.
Wine and beer and soft drinks available. Take some shelf stable snacks with you if you want.

Unique place.

This location is diver and snorkelers paradise. The sharks are so amazing and right in front of your bungalow. There is so much diversity in the ocean life and coral is vibrant and healthy. The accommodations are basic, but all your needs are met. The full board made it easy for us to not have to worry about meals/grocery shopping/cooking/dishes. We were able to maximize our time in the water. We absolutely loved our stay here.

Excellent access to some of the best diving in the world. Located right on the water and Tumakahoa pass, this location is right on shark alley and some of the most beautiful coral I’ve seen. The property is rustic but over the water and right on the reef. It is a lot like camping. Cold showers, no locking doors, damp bedding when it rains and few amenities are all part of the experience.

The boat ride from Fakarava north is a little more than an hour and can really only be done in the daytime. Our flight was delayed so we had to stay in Fakarava north, which was fully booked and ended up paying for tetamanu and the pension on the north side.

The staff is friendly but don’t go out if their way in hospitality. We had to ask for basics like toilet paper and they couldn’t accomodate any dietary requests or snacks when it wasn’t time for a scheduled meal. You eat what they serve, which is pancakes and fish for the most part. It was all delicious though.

The dive guides were very nice and showed us some of the most incredible diving I have experienced. For me it was a special experience, but not appropriate for people that need extra care or a honeymoon type of experience like on Moorea or bora bora.

Tetamanu Village is a place to go if you want a one of a kind diving experience. The “wall of sharks” is spectacular! All the staff are warm and friendly. The accommodations are what I would describe as rustic. No hot water, but not uncomfortably cold water from the shower. Each bungalow has its own private deck overlooking the very shallow ocean water, that you can snorkel directly from. You won’t go hungry, the food is plentiful at breakfast, lunch, and dinner, served family style. I suggest bringing good silicone earplugs, the roosters make noise all night long.

This simple guesthouse is very remote and basic, but I would definitely stay here again. Our fare (traditional bungalow) was modest, but comfortable and charming and set on the water's edge. Meals consisted mostly of fish, rice, chicken and pasta. The staff was wonderful and the diving spectacular.

It was amazing to see the sharks from your room. The room was reasonable and modest for being in the middle of no where. The Island was clean. There were boats and roosters that woke us up early. Several large groups over a few days made the buffet style dinning stressful. No snacks in between meals and the showers don't have hot or fresh water. No red wine or place to buy snacks. It was a gorgeous spot these are the issues that may be problematic.

If you like putting your mask underwater and exploring an amazing coral reef in a completely untouristy location with such a wondeful and friendly staff then you have come to the right place. We will definitely return to Tetamanu village. This is not a grandiose 5 star resort- but rather a unique immersion into a simplifeid lifestyle of exploring underwater or a desolate motu with coral sand, community dining and sleeping in simple bungalows on the beach. Clean but rustic, no hot water for showers but you will not miss them. This is the \"real\" Polynesia

Great place to visit

Tetamanu Village feels like a summer camp for adults and ocean lovers. Located right next to Tetamanu Pass, it contains its own diving center and scheduled dives and is a great place to arrange dives and rest in between. It is not just for divers, though. The surrounding area is also good for snorkeling and hiking the small island can also fill a morning. I spent 3 nights at Tetamanu and could have easily spent 2 more. The area is nice and picturesque, all meals are provided at the reception center (you can feed sharks your leftovers), and transport to and from the center is included in the package.

It really, really helps if you speak french.

My only complaints are (1) there are not locks on the bungalow doors or screens on the bungalow windows (I didn't have anything stolen but I am old fashioned when it comes to security) and (2) they don't have nitrox available for their dives. To do a nitrox dive you'll have to schedule your dive with Topdive.

Overall I enjoyed my time at Tetamanu and may go back someday.

Bit of a rip off

Not worth the huge price. The location is amazing, although a little warning of the 65 minute rough and uncomfortable boat ride would have been welcome... Room very basic without most of the facilities advertised (no ceiling fan, no rain shower - shower is a mere trickle!) but comfortable. Management showed no interest in solving problems or compensating us for false advertising. Food delicious. All other staff lovely.

The place is right at the south pass and REALLY perfect for divers! The water is crystal clear and you can see the colorful corals, fish ans sharks even without diving/snorkeling. The food was also great and tasty. Nevertheless, we could feel some tension between the staff. Clearly, the majority of guests from all around the world come for diving and some couldn't dive as much as they wanted because they lacked some staff (sick, not their fault). And once it was cancelled last minute because the captain refused to cooperate. It's a pity and it would have been wishful to anticipate this. Apart from this incident, we enjoyed our stay very much. It's really a magnificent location and perfect for disconnecting and relaxing.

Un site d'une beauté incroyable!

Nous avons passé 2 nuits dans cet établissement. Arrivée en avion puis liaison en véhicule et en bateau jusque Tetamanu.
L'accueil a été bon avec un petit verre de bienvenue.
Les chambres, certes spartiates, suffisent.
Pas d'eau chaude mais vraiment pas important vu le climat!

Un gros atout : la terrasse donnant sur le lagon! Dès le matin, le paradis...

Concernant les repas, nous avons mangé à notre faim. Dommage que les plats soient servis un peu trop tôt. Les repas ont été servis avant le retour des plongeurs. Du coup, froid lorsque nous passons à table. De plus, 10mn chrono, les plats sont retirés... Dommage.

Pour la plongée, nous avons été très bien pris en compte par des moniteurs compétents et à l'écoute mais pas aidés par le matériel vieillissant... A charge du propriétaire de renouveler le matériel...

Nous sommes satisfaits de notre séjour et peut être aurons nous la chance d'y retourner....

Repas des déjeuners et dîner assez variés et conséquents. Pas de manque contrairement à ce peut être dit dans d autres commentaires.

Wir hatten ein Zimmer im Tetamanu Sauvage. Die Zimmer sind einfach aber sehr groß. Wir waren zu 2, aber es hätten 4-5 Leute Schlafplätze gehabt. Es gab ein Mückenschutz überm Bett, welchen wir aber nicht gebraucht haben. Wir hatten eine tolle Aussicht auf einen Pass und die aufgehende Sonne. Zum Restaurant und der Tauchschule sind es etwa 10 Minuten gemütlich zu Fuß. Das Essen war vielfältig, allerdings war bei unserer Ankunft das Village komplett ausgebucht, sodass man am Büffet schnell sein musste. Wir sind immer (auch nach großem Hunger vom tauchen) satt geworden.
Der Südpass sucht zum tauchen seines gleichen! Es ist einer der Besten Tauchplätze der Welt! Hier sieht man unzählige Graue Riffhaie und noch einige andere Arten. Der Nachttauchgang ist besonders empfehlenswert.
Ein Taucherparadies!

Absolute Traumlocation!! 100% Empfehlung für jeden leidenschaftlichen Taucher! Personal auch extrem nett.

Hoffe das Paradies bleibt so lange erhalten, es ist etwas schade zu sehen, wie Taucher, Schnorchler oder Kajakfahrer teilweise die Korallen beschädigen.
Außerdem muss man erwähnen, das hier sehr sehr unerfahrene Taucher ins Wasser und vor allem auch zu den Nachttauchgängen gelassen werden. Es wäre schön, wenn die Taucher ihrem können entsprechend in Gruppen eingeteilt werden würden.

Alles in allem ist es eine einfache aber saubere Unterkunft mit einem super Tauchcenter und sehr nettem Personal. :)

Accueil minime voir inexistant à l’arrivée.
Insister pour avoir des renseignements ou indications sur ce que compte la réservation.
Personnel qui essaye de faire de leur mieux mais c’est la direction qui ne suit pas.
Nous n’avons pas eu le temps de faire l’excursion aux sables roses qui est apparemment ce qui vaut le plus le coup mais pêche à la traîne attendue et réclamée mais indisponible vu l’ignorance du personnel.
Passons à l’hébergement qui est très sommaire, un lit avec une moustiquaire cassée et des draps d’une propreté discutable. Salle de bain précaire sans douche mais tuyau d’eau présent dont le débit est très léger. Vue sur le lagon appréciable, heureusement qu’elle était là!
Les repas sont très peu variés et en quantité limitée. Bien se présenter à l’heure indiquée pour les repas qui sont signalés au tintement d’une cloche sinon vous risquez de ne rien avoir.
Bémol de plus, si deux vols retours sont présents dans la journée, prenez le premier car il n’y aura qu’un seul retour en bateau dans la journée.
Seul point positif : la plongée. Environnement magnifique, plongée qualitative et moniteurs très sympathiques et pédagogues même pour les débutants. Si vous ne plongez pas, le snorkelling reste intéressant mais ne suffit pas à tout rattraper.
À conseiller seulement pour la plongée.
Rapport qualité-prix très insatisfaisant.

Il personale che ci lavora è veramente splendido: dal capitano che ci ha accompagnato nella traversata notturna per arrivare al villaggio alle carinissime signore che ci lavorano. Peccato che il fantomatico proprietario non curi di più le casette in cui si viene ospitati: la struttura è composta da due parti. La parte del village quella piu storica vicino al ristorante ed al diving center che è costituita credo da solo 6 piccoli bungalow sull’acqua e dalla parte sauvage distante 5 minuti a piedi dal village direttamente su un isolotto in mezzo ad una pass e come tale esposto molto di più al vento. Noi eravamo nell’ultima casetta della sezione village ed era comunque molto calmo anche quando accendevano il generatore. La immersioni risultano comodissime: in 2 minuti di barca si è sulla pass. La natura intorno è splendida: pesci napoleone, aquile di mare, squali e mille pesci di barriera al pontile e sotto l’uscio del bungalow. La vista dal bungalow nel patio stupenda. Venendo alle cose negative: acqua solo fredda nella doccia, insetti assortiti nel bungalow, zanzariera sul letto di fatto inutile perché tutta rotta, biancheria da letto che ha visto giorni migliori e tutto l’esiguo arredo molto molto vetusto. Peccato perché situato in un paradiso. Cibo buono ai pasti principali, colazione da migliorare.

Le pire transfert que j’ai connu. 5 h à attendre d’être prise en charge par le bateau contrairement à ce qui avait été convenu. Le chauffeur a refusé de m’expliquer quoique ce soit et m’a dit, je cite :
« Tu restes ici et tu te tais. Tu n’as rien à savoir. »
Le chauffeur est un être odieux,caractériel et misogyne qui déteste les touristes.
Visiblement il a choisi le mauvais travail.
Malheureusement j’étais une dame seule de 55 ans.
Impossible de joindre la pension.
Il y a eu ce jour là de multiples départs tout au long de la journée. Le bateau a fait de nombreux aller-retour.
Comme Sané , le propriétaire de la pension, m’avait oublié le chauffeur a décidé que néanmoins je prendrai le départ de 16h30.
Heureusement le personnel une fois sur place a été très sympa surtout la jeune fille de l’accueil qui est une perle.
Snorkeling de folie meme si je ne plonge pas.
J’ai réalisé mon rêve d’aller voir où Laurent Balesta a réalisé ses magnifiques photos et l’endroit où j’ai plongé avec son équipe de manière virtuelle ( merci Microfolies)
Visiblement le propriétaire Sané ne mise pas sur le logement. Les bungalows sont sommaires et la douche a fuit durant tout mon séjour. Étonnant quand on sait la rareté de l’eau.
J’ai du demander une serviette de toilette et un savon car non fournis.
La poubelle n’avait pas été vidée.
Dommage j’ai aussi fini mon voyage avec le même chauffeur mais cette fois ci je n’étais pas seule. Sinon j’aurais refusé.
Il est arrivé avec 20 min de retard au ponton,

Die Insel, das Naturerlebnis, das Tauchen und das Essen sind eindrucksvoll - die Unterkunft selbst ist schrecklich (und wir waren wirklich auf keinerlei Komfort und einfachste Verhältnisse vorbereitet). Dabei wäre mit wenig Aufwand so viel zu verbessern, z.B. einfach mal die Moskitonetze wechseln.

海と空を堪能

施設に関しては、制限事項(シャワーは温水ではない、等)を、宿泊施設からの情報や口コミで事前に把握していたので、不満はなく、シンプルで良かったと思います。

Sauvageに(自分から選択したわけではなく)泊まることになりました。Villageにあるレセプションから500m程歩きます。途中に通る橋の上から、星空、透明な海、夕日を堪能しました。

スノーケリングでも綺麗な海を楽しめますし、スクーバダイビングはしたことがなく、ファカラバに行く前はするつもりもありませんでしたが、他の宿泊客の勧めもあって思い切ってやってみました。おすすめ通り、本当に良かったです。

Bon séjour dans l'ensemble mais quelques problèmes qui ne devraient pas exister pour le prix payé. Travaux tout les jours a partir de 6h du matin donc pas de grâce matinée ni de calme.
Et les toilettes communes catastrophiques.
Sinon le staff est sympa et le lieu incroyable.

De bungalows van Tetamanu village hebben een duidelijk achterstallig onderhoud. Er waren 3 bunglows met vernieuwde daken maar die van ons was nog in de oude staat. Het douchewater was \"koud\" (maar dat was vooraf bekend) en zonder druk zodat je op de grond moest zitten om wat meer water uit de douchekop
te krijgen. Het bed was ok maar het moskitonet had kleine gaten. Gelukkig hadden wij geen last van muggen tijdens ons 6 daags verblijf. Het eten was lekker maar raakte binnen heel korte tijd op - er werd niets nagekookt! Het personeel was heel vriendelijk en behulpzaam. Ondanks dat wij geen gebruik hebben gemaakt van de duikschool, maakte deze een georganiseerde indruk. De toestand van de \"bunglows\" in Tetamanu Sauvage is heel slecht - en voor zover ons bekend- wordt dit gedeelte momenteel niet gebruikt.
Onze bungalow werd tijdens ons verblijf niet schoon gemaakt. Het interieur is minimaal = basic.
De onderwaterwereld daar is spectakulair. Zelfs tijdens het snorkelen kom je ontzettend veel vissoorten (inkl. haaien) tegen. De dagelijkse gratis boottocht naar \"Le sable rose\" is zeker een aanrader.
Ondanks de bovenstaande feiten hebben wij een hele mooie tijd op dit uitzonderlijk plekje aarde beleefd.

Le personnel est sympa c’est le seul attrait et c’est beau sous le soleil

mais le reste horrible —un seul transfert bateau par JOUR ! Nous avons atterri à 7 h et nous sommes parti pour tetamanu à 18h après l’arrivé du dernier vol.
Traversée en pleine nuit pendant 3h avec des conditions de mer désastreuse sans moyen de navigation .. sauf la boussole d’un iPhone d’un client …

Le repas midi : seul le plat principal est servi

Prenez une autre pension

Horror Hostel ohne Würde

Die Unterkunft sollte sofort zugesperrt werden. Ich habe noch immer Albträume von der Nacht, die ich dort verbringen musste. Das Bett, wenn man es so bezeichnen mag - war eine alte Matratze, die man nicht mal mit Handschuhen anfassen möchte. Die Kissen und der Bezug waren klamm und es war alles voller Krabbeltierkot. Das Moskitonetz hatte riesig Löcher und konnte seinen eigentlich Zweck nicht erfüllen. Das „Badezimmer“ waren zwei Wände, die mit einem Vorhang als Tür vom restlichen Raum abgetrennt waren. Die Dusche ist ein ekliges Rohr das aus einer Ecke kommt. Man möchte dort nichts berühren, weil alles dreckig und ranzig ist. Der Boden hing an einer Stelle durch und man hatte Angst, dass man durchbricht. In der Nacht konnte man kein Auge zubekommen, weil man Tiere knabbern hören konnte und Angst hatte, dass die Ratten ins Zimmer kommen. Die ganze Insel ist zugemüllt. Das Frühstück war altes gefrorenes Baguette, was man nicht einmal schneiden konnte, da es so hart war. Das Abendessen bestand aus Nudeln und Hackfleisch, aber keinem frischen Fisch. Wir wollten die Insel eher verlassen, aber die Besitzer wollten uns keinen Transfer von der Insel organisieren. Im allgemeinen sind die Betreiber nicht an dem Wohl der Gäste Interessiert. Wir saßen in der Hölle fest. Das Wlan ist nur tagsüber gegen eine Gebühr nutzbar. Ich würde meinen größten Feind dort nicht hinschicken.

Die Mitarbeiter*innen waren alle ausnehmend freundlich.

Das Essen erinnert an Jugendherbergsaufenthalte: zwar frisch zubereitet aber wenig abwechslungsreich und vorallem nicht ausreichend - wenn man nicht pünktlich zum Essen in der Schlange stand, riskiert man ausser Reis/ Nudeln nichts mehr zu bekommen.

Mein Zimmer/ mein Bungalow wurde in den 6 Tagen, die ich da war nicht ein einziges Mal gereinigt/ gefegt, der Papierkorb nicht ausgewechselt und ein frisches Handtuch bekam ich erst nach 4 Tagen, als ich angefragt habe.

Aber viel schlimmer waren die Ratten:
Nachts tobten sie sich mit dem Inhalt des Mülleimers aus (ich hatte KEIN Essen im Bungalow) - zum Glück hatte ich alle meine Sachen in den verschlossenen Reisesachen gelassen - nagten meine FlipFlops an und in einer Nacht wurde ich davon geweckt, dass zumindest eine Ratte in meinem Bett auf meinem Kopf rumkletterte.
Was für ein Alptraum.

Leider war die Reaktion des Besitzers nicht sonderlich überrascht oder geschockt. Mir scheint auch nicht, dass der Eigentümer besondere Massnahmen in die Wegeleiten wird, um diese unschönen Zustände zu verbessern.

Ich persönlich würde einen Aufenthalt in Süd Fakarava (Tetamanu Village) nicht weiter empfehlen.

Go only for diving!

Do NOT stay in this place except if you are going to dive the Wall of Sharks!! And Maximus 2 days if you do! The price for room is so much more than you really get.
The surroundings and the reef is beautiful but the bungalows are terrible. We were prepared for a simple bungalow with no hot water but everything and espacially the sheets was wet/moisty. Bring your own sleepingbag/sheet!!! Food was what you could expect but they use rainwater for drinking and clean the bottles in saltwater. We had problems with our stomach aften out days here. The young couple who helps in the kitchen during the day is nice and serviceminded.
