Kia Ora Sauvage
Avatoru
Rangiroa 98775 French Polynesia

A one hour cruise from the Hotel Kia Ora down to the south coast of Rangiroa takes you to the Avearahi motu (islet). There, the Kia Ora Sauvage greets you in a miniature version of paradise. As soon as you land, the legend of Robinson Crusoe becomes true in a setting of five traditional bungalows nestled amidst the coconut and palm trees. Indeed, an atmosphere of luxury combined with authenticity awaits you at the Kia Ora Sauvage.  

At the Kia Ora Sauvage, many visitors have found the experience unique and unforgettable. After a day of fishing on the reef with the locals, you may relax on the beach and admire a spectacular sunset with shifting colors mirrored in the lagoon. When comes the night, your friendly hosts of this heavenly sanctuary bring you oil lamps because there is no electricity. They also prepare your dinner of fresh local seafood and serve you under the twilight. You will gently fall asleep lulled by the sound of the waves and the rustling palm leaves. During the day, the magnificent and unique environment of Kia Ora Sauvage offers a great variety of activities to enjoy during your stay. Enjoy a boat ride to the neighboring islets and picnic there or go fishing on the reef while watching the dolphins and harmless sharks swin nearby in the ocean. There is also snorkeling, cruising in the channels, outrigger paddle canoeing and alot to discover.  

The accent throughout is on a return to true values, to a more adventurous life, during which you will literally merge with nature.
