Tiny house by the beach with its private pool

Modern and equipped tiny house, featuring a small private pool, fully air-conditioned, and with exclusive parking. Set in a completely private tropical garden, this unique property is located just a few dozen meters from the famous white beach of PK 18 in Punaauia, on the west coast of Tahiti Island. The property is fully fenced and secure. The spacious outdoor terrace under a tree allows for peaceful meals in a natural setting.
This small house has its entirely private garden, a terrace under a tree, and a private pool for refreshing moments in complete privacy. It is located within a 5-minute walk from Tahiti's most famous white sand beach, at PK18.
Numerous fruit trees are planted in the garden (papayas, avocado trees, mango trees, banana trees, tomato plants), along with many tropical plants and flowers.
A well-stocked convenience store is less than a 5-minute walk from the house. Several nearby restaurants (Chinese, Italian, French) take orders by phone and deliver directly to the home.
Lastly, the bus line that goes to the airport or the city is located right in front of the property's entrance.

The house and property was perfect for what we wanted. The host, (Henri) was accommodating and very responsive. Note: A means of private transport (car, scooter, etc.) is necessary. There is a great parking space right outside the house. We were very happy with the entire experience.

Great adventure, nice location
Place was in a great location. Your right next to a beautiful public beach. You do have to go out the back gate to get to beach, no access from property but not a big deal.A large house takes up ocean view and you are towards back of property. The swimming pool wasn't usable,empty and small hot tub had no controls more of pond out front. Tiny house was adequate for us but ants were a bit out of control taking over .. inside of tv had a whole ant population inside but fun to watch. . Interesting place to find them . Hard to write review as can't see what one is writing. Wash machine was a great addition and shower had great pressure .kitchen was supplied as stated and nice to have. Air conditioner worked great.

This little house was perfectly located adjacent to a fantastic beach. It was well provisioned for two people, including the dip pool. We were will acquainted with the resident roosters and dogs at all hours, but got used to it over time. Local store and restos were handy, as was the scooter rental place. Great way to enjoy the island. Henri was responsive and helpful.

Tiny House in Paradise Near the Beach
Modern and very clean. Literally right next to a great beach and easy drive to stores, downtown, and so many waterfalls. The backyard is a beautiful oasis and we spent a lot of time out there. The plunge pool is great, but does live in the shade most of the time so was very cold. Kitchen has what you need. Communication was great. The place needs a touch of attention (maintenance) and the owner is going to work on that. We would also recommend some comfortable seating for the backyard beyond the one hanging seat and the plastic dining chairs. We enjoyed the stay.

Loved this little house!
While the Tahitian weather wasn’t very nice during our stay, we loved Henri’s little house. The location was great and the beach next door was exceptional (when the sun shone). Even in the rain, we were able to sit outside at the table in the back garden under a big umbrella in his charming and very private yard. The only visitors we saw were a rooster and some hens and chicks who regularly came through to munch on mangos and other things that had fallen from trees to the ground. The little pool was also so nice. We used it daily. We’d stay at Henri’s place again for sure.

Great location and fabulous tiny home!
This VRBO exceeded my expectations. Communication was great with Henri. The garden is beautiful, and the layout of the home is perfect to enjoy the view of the garden and the large tree just a few steps from the slider door. On the other side of the wall from a beautiful beach with snorkeling. I hope to return! I felt so comfortable in the space that I wish could live there forever!

Great tiny house with pool near a pretty beach
This tiny house is perfect! The owner has done a great job with the house. You have everything that you need to cook, it’s super well equipped, the pool is a nice bonus and you are next door to a pretty beach. It’s the perfect stop to snorkel! It’s literally next door. Also - there is a small grocery store about 409m away which is super convenient. The owner was super helpful & responsive. Highly recommend :)

Cute tiny home, right by the beach
This property was the perfect size for just me, and was all I needed when I wasn't out and about. The property managers Mom was a huge help, as she spoke English and not many do where I was. Refreshing plunge pool in back, though I only used for my feet. Rooster in the area kept me entertained with his cockle-dooing. House has all the necessities, but not extravagant extras. Groceries were available in walking distance and little restaurant close by.

We loved this tiny house. Includes wifi (actually seems to be a rarity on the island), AC (also a rarity) and a small plunge pool - we had a great time, and you can simply walk right over to the beach, which is fantastic!

The property itself was perfectly fine. Great being right next to the beach and we had an early check in which was great. The front door did not close or lock all the way while we were sleeping. The place was FULL of about 50 mosquitos upon arrival and we had to jam towels in where the door wouldnt shut to try and keep them out. After about 30 bites and no sleep we went to a hotel the next night. While the location was great, make sure you have a rental car because no taxi wanted to pick us up from here. We waited 2 hours.

Gorgeous property to enjoy Tahiti to the fullest
This is the place to stay in Tahiti! Secluded and private, with fruit trees, and all the amenities. Location is right next to the beach with great restaurants and grocery store near by, but still away from the busy-ness of the big city.

Little house by the ocean
We had a wonderful 4 nights in this place! Clarita was very friendly and offered us to pick some mangoes from the tree…. Lots of fruit trees in the compound which made the place so lush and green! It’s a multi rental place but very private …. And best of all… it’s barely 3 mins walk to a pristine clear blue ocean… so conveniently located! Highly recommended if you want to be by the beach and close drive to the city centre!

Lovely Garden
We loved our stay! The garden is unbeatable, and the A/C worked well. Cute kitchen and bathroom! The property is enclosed in a remote-controlled gate with a passcode. The sliding glass door to our unit did not lock, which might present an issue for some, since there are a few other units on the gated property. Henri was very responsive, though the lock did not work the two days we were staying. Overall, we had a lovely stay and would recommend!
