Tahiti Pricing Note:
TAHITI SUN TRAVEL doesn't list specific prices of rooms
for it's LISTINGS simply because they are subject to too many changes!
We would rarely be able to claim accuracy, and would constantly be updating
and changing prices according to the economy fluctuations of French
Polynesia.

MID-RANGE
/ TAHITI
(FAMILY RUN PENSIONS
& SMALL HOTELS)
These
accomodations vary greatly throughout Tahiti-Polynesia. Some are quite luxurious,
although slightly less so than the top of the line resorts listed above. Many
are also not so luxurious, but what you'll save in dollars may end up being
a worthy tradeoff. They range from hotels and motels to what the French Polynesians
call "Pensions" which are basically family run operations, often
with family style service. Since the majority of places to stay on all the
Tahitian islands consist of these mid-range style accomodations, you might
imagine there is also a great variation in quality, service, and facilities...
Explore the listings and links below for details.
NOTE: Some of these mid- range establishments fall into the same generalized
categories and descriptions of the smaller budget pensions, hotels, and lodging
in private homes listed in our BUDGET/ TAHITI section
below. They are marked with red abbreviations, which describe their categories.
For category details, please see our chart below.

BUDGET
/ CAMPING
/TAHITI
(PENSIONS, SMALL HOTELS, AND LODGING IN PRIVATE HOMES)
Listed
below are refuges for those of you on a tight budget or wishing to save your
hard earned money on various activities or Island hopping rather than on lodging.
Amenities
can be a bit stark compared to some other more expensive places to stay
on the island, but just because it's budget doesn't mean it isn't a great
place to stay. Backpackers, students, long term travelers, or campers (see
camping details below) - love these places... Accomodations are often
simple bungalows, dorm style cottages or rooms utilizing communal style
bathrooms, kitchens, and showers.
In our humble opinion, many of these
low or mid range choices are among the BEST places to stay, on ALL the islands
of Tahititi Polynesia, due to their "family touch." They are the
easiest places to have personal contact and interact with the islanders,
which most people will find extremely rewarding. Most, if not all the accomodations,
are run by family members and they are often very friendly, outgoing, and
interesting to meet for any traveler. Great sources of Island information,
these locals also can help you organize the many island activities
and sights you will be pursuing.
CATEGORY DESCRIPTION NOTE: Many of these
lower budget establishments fall into the same generalized categories and
descriptions as the MID-RANGE accomodations above.
They are marked with red abbreviations, which describe their categories.

Unfortunately, camping on Tahiti is rather limited, in contrast to popular
(non local) opinion and desire... but there are some interesting choices
for you if you're motivated.
You basically have 2 choices: The first
one is the easy way. It consists of contacting one of the pensions above
and asking them if it's allright to pitch your tent on their grounds. You'll
most likely be pitched right in the middle of the family's yard, not really
"camping" in the true sense of the word, but you'll be able to
save money this way and use the communal kitchen, bathroom facilities, and
store your valuables with the management, just as if you'd be paying for
a room. Campers rates are usually a LITTLE lower than a basic room- the
lowest of the rock bottom pricing choices for any stay on Tahiti.
The second choice is to go deep... There's
limited, but wonderful camping within the island's steamy interior and on
Tahiti- Iti. See our special camping
section now for details!
