"Pros: Excellent location for enjoying the beach, for diving- dive center Dive Spirit next door🤩❣️ North pass for diving is just 15 minutes boat ride away and had much more sharks than south pass. You get kayaks for free, can rent scooter to go around. It is also good place for snorkelling. We had breakfast and dinner- excellent food😃. Thanks🤩❣️ Cons: We love everything🤩❣️" ~Vesna

"Pros: We stayed at the lodge for three nights and we went to Fakarava essentially for diving. The lodge is quite remote from town and most dive centers (7-9 km) but most of them offer pick-up. There are bicycles at the lodge but they don’t have brakes nor handles and the return from the town center can be challenging at night due to strong headwind. The lodge was clean, however - since there are no mosquito nets at the windows - many bugs and gecko can enter the room. Therefore you don’t want to leave the windows open and the room becomes hot quickly - fan is provided. The lodge offers internet connection but - when we stayed - it was impossible to browse the internet possibly due to the bad weather. The owner speaks no English at all and it was very difficult to communicate with him and his staff. However, they were very kind and helped us in any possible way. That said - most structures in Fakarava offer basic services and if your prepared and know what to expect you may enjoy your stay. Small improvements from the owners to the lodge could significantly increase the pleasure of the stay. Also, the price is pretty high for what is offered. If you like simple and remote places, the lodge is quiet and offer amazing ocean view with a private pool. Cons: See above." ~Luca

"Pros: having bikes to ride on the island but the distance to any restaurant was close to 6 miles each way." ~David
