SLEEP IN THE HEART OF NATURE

I’m taking you this time on a unique experience: spending a night in the heart of Tahitian nature. No buildings, no city noise. Just you, the stars, and the whispers of the surrounding nature. Come on, follow me!

Ready to pitch your tent in the heart of paradise? 🌿✨

For the adventurous at heart, nothing beats a night under the stars in the heart of the Polynesian valleys. Once you’ve pitched your tent on one of the many designated camping spots, let yourself be enchanted by the tropical sounds: the song of exotic birds and the rustling of water from nearby waterfalls.

But beware, while camping in French Polynesia offers breathtaking landscapes, you also need to be prepared for a few inconveniences, especially… the mosquitoes!

A little warning: make sure to bring mosquito repellent, a good headlamp, and something to cover yourself, as the nights can get a bit chilly.

And most importantly, take the time to gaze at the sky. Here, far from any light pollution, the stars seem within reach.
