Whilst staying at the awesome Pension Maurii, we walked up the coast one evening to have dinner at the Mahana - the only restaurant we've ever ran screaming from. Imagine a retirement home for geriatric Frenchies sipping fruity cocktails on pink linen-topped plastic garden furniture under Brit-pub fairy lights in a suburban back garden, and you'll have the general vibe.... more

This resort is very nice and it was our second stay. The truth is that we didn't want to leave and had planned to spend a good 6 days on the great beach. Our daughter was very happy to be playing with some new friends. We could fish right off the beach, and there were good food options nearby. The... more

Great place to stay on Huahine. Really friendly staff. Well appointed & spotlessly clean cabins. Despite the isolation of the place we had delicious dinner here too. Place is wonderful. It was expensive, but so is the whole of French Polynesia. We were a bit fortunate at negotiating a better price due to it being off season. Plenty to do... more

We received three days here at the Relais Mahana as part of a F.P. tour through Islands in the Sun and Paull Travel in Edmonton, Alberta. Of the trips we had to choose from, this one gave cheaper accomodations (mid-range) and exemplified the best things and places to do and go. We were pleasantly surprised by the friendly atmosphere and... more

This is a pleasant resort on a nice small beach with great views of the reef and sunsets. Rooms are well-appointed, although the duplex bungalows are close together and don’t give you a lot of privacy, especially when you are sitting on your front porch. Service at front desk, bar and restaurant is lackadaisical. They lost our reservation - fortunately... more

We really had a great stay at the Relais Mahana. The hotel is located probably on the best beast of the island. Rooms are right on the beach, large and furnished with taste. Staff is friendly and careful. Overall, we rete the service provided by this small hotel much higher than the one provided by larger and luxurious hotels in... more

The Relais Mahana was recommended to us by our travel agent. It is a lovely hotel, with beautiful modern bungalows with ocean or garden front views. The outdoor bar and tables have a spectacular view over the water. The location is pretty isolated, on the south side of Huahine Iti, but everything on the islands is easily accessible with a... more

As I write this, I wish I was back on Huahine and at Relais Mahana! General stuff: Comfy beds, nice sheets, good pillows, thirsty towels, TV, mini fidge, in-room coffee, ample indoor space, great porch, amazing shower. Nice sand beach, and water clarity for snorkerling was fantastic. Fun pier to jump off of. Good food overall. Particular stuff: - check... more

My husband and I spent 8 nights at the Relais Mahana, and could have stayed longer. It's a quiet, easy environment that makes you feel very far from the hustle and bustle of everyday life. There is very little to do around the area, but we were wanting time to talk, walk, read, swim, soak in the sun (under the... more
