This place is far from downtown. I needed a quiet place… it does advertise a Beach… it is by the sea… I did not see it as much of a Beach… it is in a very nice place by a beautiful Park… beautiful homes… and there is a very beautiful Restaurant by the same park … and these are wonderful places to spend relaxing times… there are public bathrooms… I liked it to wait for my flight. I left the downtown place at 10am and I wanted to have the relax. The place has a beautiful kitchen and lounging areas. Other than that the rooms are dormitory style very small… good for people with a car to go to other places. The Owner is wonderful… I felt a personal touch… I do recommend this Hostel.

My wife and I loved EVERYTHING about this property and the two host, Frederick and Christel! We can’t say enough about the host and the accommodations! The property is perfectly located on the island near several beautiful beaches, restaurants, & markets, all within walking distance. The property itself is well maintained, very organized with plenty of room to socialize, or relax away from others, and provides everything you need for your stay. The host are lovely human beings who have the kindest hearts and most beautiful personalities we could have encountered. We highly recommend this Pension to all visitors traveling to Tahiti.

Great choice for budget travelers

Why spend $200+ on your hotel stay in Tahiti when you can stay here for a fraction of the cost? The family that runs this Pension is very friendly. It feels more like a B&B than a hostel. A very nice beach is only a 20 minute walk.

This is a hostel and not a hotel.....I saved money for a one night stay. Room was clean, Late check-in was good. I booked a room with two beds, but only got one. Not a concern. If you expect a hostel, you will not be dissapointed. If you expect a hotel, this is not the property for you. Location is near great snorkel spot. Owners were excellent and very friendly.

Lovely hosts/owners, so friendly, we had a good laugh with them. Shared kitchen is so clean and very handy. The bathrooms are a bit old, although the outside one is soon to be replaced so hopefully the inside one will next. All very clean though. The room was a good size, mattresses pretty comfy and fly screens on the windows was great to let some air in. Less than 5mins to Mahina park/beach (good for sunset happy hour drinks) and about 10mins to the better beach a little further north. Breakfast was baguette, fresh fruit and tea/coffee. You can also do laundry for 1000pf for a load. Compared to the price of other places in Tahiti this was good value.

Die Pension Te Miti befindet sich in einer Sietenstraße im Ort Paea südlich der Hauptstadt Papeete. Zum Flughafen sind es mit dem Auto etwa 20 Minuten, zum Cruise Terminal ein paar mehr. Wegen einer Verspätung beim Flug kamen wir erst nach 21 Uhr an. Dennoch wurden wir freundlich empfangen, erhielten eine Führung durch die Gemeinschaftsräume (Küche, Wohnzimmer, Terrasse, Frühstücksterrasse, Toiletten, Duschen). Zudem erhielten wir eine große Flasche Wasser, die nach 40 Stunden Anreise sehr willkommen war. Die Räume und die Einrichtungen sind schlicht und einfach, könnten an der einen oder anderen Stelle auch mal einen neuen Anstrich vertragen. Natürlich kann man von einer Unterkunft, die einen Bruchteil dessen kostet was die Hotels auf der Insel berechnen keinen Luxus erwarten. Das Frühstück ist ebenfalls nicht mit den Buffets in Hotels zu vergleichen: Es git für jeden Gast ein Stück Baguette, Butter, portionierte Marmelade und für jedes Zimmer noch eine Schale mit frischen, regionalen Früchten. Aber alles sehr gut und ausreichend für den Start in den Tag. Die Gastgeber Frederic und Christelle sind sehr freundlich und bei allen Fragen engagiert und hilfsbereit. Vermittlung von Aktivitäten, Busverbindungen, Taxi bestellen oder auch Mitfahrgelegenheiten mit anderen Gästen (wir hatten keinen Mietwagen).
