Well equipped villa at a fantastic location

Overall a brilliant place to stay with everything needed. Only issue was there were dead ants in the kitchen but these were vacuumed using the vacuum provided. Communication with Pierre was great and the views across the lagoon were breathtaking.

Second Stay in this villa

This was our second stay at this house. It has a wonderful view from inside the house and also on the patio. It also has a sunset view. It is well-equipped and has beach towels. There is a washer and dryer. The bedrooms have a/c which is needed, as the house can get very hot during the day. This time none of the tour operators would pick us up from the pier so we had to drive to town to get picked up.

Alles in allem eine sehr schöne Unterkunft mit sehr guter Ausstattung. Ein toller Blick von der Terrasse. Was die Wegbeschreibung angeht: Straßennamen angeben bzw. eine genauere Beschreibung, ein Vermerk an den Mülltonnen wird übersehen wenn man aus Veitape anreist.

Paradise - exceeded our wildest expectations!

We thoroughly enjoyed every moment of our stay at Villa Vahimanui and definitely hope to return! The views were so beautiful that it took our breath away …and the villa itself was a very clean, comfortable, well equipped, and relaxing place to stay! Pierre was extremely conscientious and organized in regard to communication…and provided us with very comprehensive information in advance …which helped us prepare for, and enjoy our stay. Pierre was also quick to provide answers to any of our questions! This was our first trip to French Polynesia and Bora Bora. My husband & I stayed at the villa with my parents (in their 70’s/early 80’s … and in good shape ). We had no problem managing the stairs, although, as others have mentioned, it’s a bit of a workout to bring your luggage up in the hot sun …lol…but believe me - it’s totally worth it! We spent our days exploring the island in our rental car, and enjoyed trips to Matira Beach, and snorkeling! We were happy to return back to the villa in the late afternoon to cook meals and enjoy the view from the deck. We had a fabulous time at Pierre’s Villa and are very grateful to have had the opportunity to stay! Thank you ❤️

Immaculate villa with stunning views

Our family of 4 had an amazing holiday in Bora Bora thanks to the wonderful villa overlooking the lagoon, and extremely helpful owner Pierre. Even a lovely local picked a bunch of bananas off his tree and gave them to us after our morning swim in the beautiful bright blue Lagoon.

The property and the view was very nice.

The property and the view were very nice. We staid 5 nights. The only problem it is on the other side of the Island and if you want to eat or do any grocery shopping or go to the beach you have to drive around 20 - 25 minutes each way. So must be organized. Again, nothing wrong with the place, just be sure you have a car.

Tolle Villa mit fantastischem Ausblick.

Die Villa ist groß und wunderschön. Es ist alles vorhanden was man benötigt und alles ist in einem guten Zustand. Wir haben jeden Tag die Aussicht vom Balkon und aus dem Wohnzimmer genossen. Für die Aussicht lohnt sich jede einzelne Stufe die man für den Aufstieg zur Villa überwinden muss. Leider sind die Fliegenschutzgitter bei der Villa nicht mehr ganz dicht. Wir hatten jeden Tag 2-3 Hornissen in der Villa, trotz geschlossener Fenster und Türen. Auch hat ein Hahn, der auf dem Gelände lebt jeden Morgen ab 05:00 am dafür gesorgt, dass wir auf keinen Fall den wunderschönen Sonnenaufgang verpassen. Es wäre auch schön gewesen, wenn 2 Kajaks zur Verfügung stünden damit man die wunderschöne Lagune auf dem Wasser erkunden könnte. Alles in allem hatten wir eine sehr schöne Zeit in der Villa und können die Villa auf jeden Fall weiterempfehlen.

A dream in Bora Bora

The house is part of a complex on a small hill. The only negative point (if i can find one) is that there is no sign indicating the complex. Anyway, the house is fabulous: a great view with a very nice terrace, very nice forniture and high attention to details. The owner (Pierre) is extremely detailed and he gave us any possible information we could need. It was an excellent choice for staying in Bora Bora and i would highly recommend it.

Excellent quiet and peaceful location

We had a lovely stay here! My boyfriend and I were looking for a peaceful retreat and definitely found it here. All of the conveniences that you need and Pierre is a most attentive host. He has great recommendations on places to go and visit that made our trip even that more memorable. Our only regret is we didn’t stay longer:)

Struggling to leave this place :)

We have just arrived home after two weeks in French Polynesia where my husband and I stayed the last four nights at this beautiful house. The owner represents the house beautifully and it is super clean with great views. He is very particular about keeping the place clean which helps you to keep it bug-free. The air conditioning worked great for sleeping at night (if needed), as there is a constant breeze which is especially lovely in the evenings. He had a great set-up for laundry if needed. Previous reviews balked at the steps. My husband and I are in our early 60s and in good health but a bit chinky and found the steps to be no problem at all. We didn't do any cooking as we preferred to grab a coffee and croissants from the Ptisseried at St. James as we had early starts with Eleuthera Diving. Really world-class dinners at Villa Mahani and St. James. Thank you, Pierre. We'll be back and want to stay much longer. We loved not being in a place full of other tourists and being in your home allowed us such peacefulness. PS: I gave the location 4 stars only because it is a bit pf a drive into town - nothing more than just letting people know.

Best view and beautiful home!!

The Villa from Pierre was just amazing!! The view is unbeatable and mesmerizing!! We couldn’t get enough of it. The Villa is very tastefully furnished, beautiful art work and has everything you need. The beds are very comfy and the AC in the bedrooms also work great. The internet is very fast which was helpful. All in all a memory we will never forget! Pierre was a very nice host. The spot for snorkeling with Manta Rays is literally 2 minutes drive away. Thank you Pierre!

Hillside view over the lagoon

Let me say this first: If you don't mind daily steep walk and 80+ steps towards the villa, you will love it! It is everything your eyes deserve - incredible view and relaxing shades of blue. And just wait for the sunsets :). The villa is maintained and designed very well. The deck is spacious and you will enjoy it. The living room is naturally ventilated and there is no need for AC (in July). Pierre is great host and helpful with tips and recommendations. Needless to say we had one of the best vacations ever. Merci Pierre! P.S. Don't be afraid of the geckos - they are awesome creatures!

Bora bora bungalow

The bungalow itself was quite well furnished nd clean. My only complaint was the number of steps we had to climb every day to go anyplace. The views from the deck were outstanding, the evenings were lovely with gentle winds and not much noise. The unit did not have my washcloths and only two bath towels which we had to wash frequently. The beach towels were nice for our trips to Matira beach. Pierre was very responsive to our questions.

Unbelievable View!

This property sits up on the mountainside. Once up there, the view of the lagoon, barrier reef, and ocean is unbelievably gorgeous. The deck is large and is the perfect place to enjoy meals and cold drinks. The villa is well appointed and we had everything we needed. To enter, you must climb many steps so be aware of that. We thought the climb was rewarded with the magnificent view. Excellent property!

Stay in Bora Bora

We enjoyed our stay at this property. View was beautiful, location was very nice (out of main tourist area which was what we wanted) and hosts were excellent. Our only issue with this property was the heat. The bedrooms were air conditioned so sleeping was comfortable but the living room and kitchen were not air conditioned, and the heat during the day was so intense that we could not stay in the condo during the mid to late portions of the day. We booked during the hottest month for Bora Bora (March) so maybe this would not be such an issue during another time period. Other than this issue we loved the place.

Pleasant stay in Bora Bora

The property was clean and spacious with tremendous views as advertised. The kitchen was well appointed, with sufficient pots and pans to prepare and serve a meal. The bedrooms were both air conditioned as advertised but the rest of the house was not. Mosquitoes were not a problem during the first week of February when we stayed. The property was a little difficult to locate, but Natalie the property manager was there and came out to greet me.
