Vanira Lodge

To a guest house with a difference...

On Tahiti's peninsular, a headland juts out between the sea and the mountains, as though it were a huge ship sailing the ocean's waves. In times gone by, the Tahitians came here to scan the horizon in search of shoals of fish, or to guard against attacks from enemy tribes. It was also a place of worship. A place of enchantment; welcome to Vanira Lodge.

Vanira means Vanilla in Tahitian. Vanilla, as in the sweetness, harmony & tranquility you'll find during your stay at Vanira lodge. Enter a world where everything is simply calm, relaxing & pleasurable.
