Rangiroa (from Ra’iroa, literally meaning ‘huge sky’) gets its name from its great length, measuring 75kms from east to west and 25kms from north to south. It is the largest atoll of Tahiti and Her Islands and boasts an immense turquoise lagoon dotted with tiny islets (motus) encircled in a reef crown. Hidden away on an idyllic private motu on the south side of Rangiroa’s magnificent lagoon, five delightfully rustic beach bungalows built from ironwood, woven palms and bamboo make up this little piece of heaven. There are no phones or electricity – just coconut palms, hammocks and white sands. Kia Ora Sauvage provides the quintessential 'castaway island' escape and is available to only a few privileged guests (maximum 10 at any one time) who wish to experience authentic Polynesia in one of its most breathtaking and remote settings. Your hosts will take you fishing to the reef to collect seafood for dinner and you will eat by the light of a kerosene lamp on the beach or around the large communal table in the restaurant area. You can snorkel on the miles of reef, canoe to neighbouring islands with a picnic, look for dolphins and sharks or simply relax in your hammock and do nothing at all! Rangiroa is just an hour’s flight from Tahiti and access to Kia Ora Sauvage is via a one hour cruise across the lagoon from its sister hotel, Hotel Kia Ora. The boat transfer departs daily from Hotel Kia Ora at 9am so you will need to overnight at Hotel Kia Ora beforehand. The return boat from Kia Ora Sauvage departs at 11am daily.
