Middle-aged female solo traveler, stayed at Fare Suisse (dorm room) for 3 days in April and 6 days in May 2013 (before and after the boat trip to the Marquesas on Aranui) Positive points: - the only economically-priced accommodation in Papeete, as far as I can tell. If you don't care for upscale lodging & prefer to spend your $... More

We met a couple at LAX who were also going to fare-suisse - amazing out of the whole plane! Beni met us from a late flight and soon got us into our comfortable room. We spent two nights before going on the Paul Gaugin cruise to which Beni gave us a ride, and we enjoyed the breakfast, location and amenities.... More

We arrived at midnight and have been picked up by Beni. The apartment (Bora Bora) we booked had a bedroom with ensuite, a little kitchen and a sitting area. It was clean but it will need some renovations in the next couple of years. Fare Swiss is close to a well stocked Supermarket, down town Papeete is just a short... More

Bene was right on time to pick us up from the cruise ship port. We very much appreciated that his pick up and taking us to the airport was included in our room cost. After he dropped us at the house, he said he had to run and was very busy; we never saw him again until he came to... More

Fare Suisse is Trip Advisor’s #1-ranked B & B in Tahiti for good reason. Beni, its multi-lingual Swiss operator, runs his business with an efficient, yet personal, manner from the moment he meets you until it is time to leave. We chose to book-end our Polynesian cruise with two single-night stays @ Fare Suisse in January 2013, and were exceptionally... More

My wife and I arrived Tahiti a few days before embarking on a cruise around the islands. Being picked-up at the airport by Beni was a big plus. The flight arrived late in the evening and it was rainy, so having him there to take us straight to the hotel put us at ease. The location of Fare Suisse is... More

We stayed in Papeete for one day before moving on to Bora Bora and wanted to stay in town so it would be easier to experience Papeete. Booking our stay online was easy and they were quick getting back to us. Beni picked us up at the airport (made things very easy) and he was very friendly and happy to... More

Arriving in Papeete at 10 PM at night after an 8 hour flight, we were so glad to see Beni at the airport waiting for us. We easily located him as he was holding up a sign with our names. We stayed in the Huahina Cabin which was modern and clean with a private Bath and AC! The next morning... More

We chose Fare Suisse over a local airport hotel in Papeete and we were glad we did. The owner, Bene, picked us up at the airport and the next day drove us to the ferry. This saved us a lot of worries and money. The accommodations were just as described, air conditioned, comfortable, quiet and very clean. The breakfast offered... More

We spent some nights in this place and had a very good accomodation. It is in a quiet area but you can reach the center and the habour by feet crossing a nice park in about 15 minutes. Beni, the owner, is more than friendly and helpful and gave us the lifts from / to the airport, stored our luggage... More
