The recently opened The Royal Tikehau is a one-off property, neither considered to be a star rated resort hotel or a pension, it fits into its own category; that of a family run boutique (very small) hotel. Opened in May 2007, the Hotel is located on a small motu just 10 minutes away from the airport and village.
Located on a white sand and crushed coral beach facing Tikehau's beautiful lagoon, the hotel covers a two acre plot of lush tropical gardens. There are four categories of accommodation on offer: 4 hotel rooms located in a two-storey building to the rear of the property, 2 Bungalow Hoa, Channel (the inlet between the Ocean and the Lagoon) front bungalows, 3 Beach Front bungalows, and 1 Superior Beach Front Honeymoon bungalow.
The rooms are all pleasantly furnished with simple furniture in bright local decorations, with ensuite bathroom, double or twin beds with moceiling fan (they are not air conditioned), and private terrace deck in the bungalows. The basic rooms only have cold water supply, no TV and the balcony is shared amongst all 4 rooms.
The hotel bar and restaurant provide a warn and friendly atmosphere in which to dine and relax, and the food is great! The menus are inspired from French and island cuisine, using lots of local produce and seafood. Breakfast and dinner are included in the nightly room rates, and lunch can be provided on request.
There is a small boutique offering beachwear, supplies and local crafts and jewellry, and complimentary kayaks, volleyball, table tennis and board games are available, as well as the beautiful lagoon to swim, snorkel and explore.
If you are looking for a four star luxury experience then The Royal Tikehau is not for you. However if you are in search of the preverbal sand between your toes, relaxing, laid back experience in a location that you will not be sharing with the 'madding crowd' then look no further… this is definitely the place for you.

Although there are frequent
international flights into Tahiti, there are limited airports of
embarkation to choose from, with currently only Paris, Los Angeles,
Auckland and Tokyo offering single plane air service to
Tahiti.
The international airline for French Polynesia. is Air Tahiti
Nui, who operate daily flights from Paris and Los
Angeles to Tahiti, and on some days there are additional fights
to/from Los Angeles. In addition, they operate two weekly flights
to/from Auckland and they serve Tokyo twice a week. Their services
to New York and Sydney have been suspended, at this
time.
Air France
currently offer a service from Paris, three times a week via Los
Angeles
Air New Zealand
operates daily flights via LA to Papeete, and 5 days a week from/to
Auckland with it's own aircraft. It also operates a codeshare
arrangements with Air Tahiti Nui providing seats on their fights
from Tahiti to Auckland and Los Angeles.
United Airlines operate 3 times
a week from San Francisco to Papeete, on Tuesday, Thursday and
Sunday, which will connect to their daily flight from
Heathrow.
Air Calin
operate a weekly flight between Noumea, in New Caledonia, and
Tahiti.
Hawaiian
Airlines provide a weekly service between Honolulu and
Tahiti, currently operating on a Saturday/Sunday schedule.
LANChile
operate a flight once a week from Santiago to Tahiti via
Easter Island, providing the availability to do a great side trip
from Tahiti to Easter island.
Air Tahiti is
French Polynesia's domestic airline, which operates an extensive
domestic flight network covering all the country's main islands,
with at least a daily service. With the main Society islands
receiving a number of flights a day, since Air Moorea stopped
operations between Tahiti and Moorea, the flight connections now to
Moorea have become limited, most connections between the two are
now done by ferry boat.
The less populated and outer islands have a restricted service, so
sometimes a night stop in Tahiti may be required when connecting to
these islands.
Air Tahiti
provide the only air service between Tahiti and the Cook islands,
which they currently do once a week on a Thursday, an extra high
season flight is operated between June and August
There are a number of aircraft and helicopters available for private charters, but they all tend to be based in Tahiti so arranging charters between the outer islands can be expensive as the aircraft will originate and terminate in Tahiti.
