Monthly Rentals in Tapuaetai

It’s a great place to enjoy privacy. You can really feel yourself disconnected from the world! The view is beautiful from the terrace. One can easily spend an hour just watching it. The kitchen is well equipped, to prepare something if you don’t feel going out. Internet is super fast and reliable!

Staying with Helen and Tef was more than just an Airbnb—it was a heartfelt, cultural experience. Helen welcomed us with warmth, gave us a personal island tour, and shared Aitutaki’s rich history and traditions. The home they built is very spacious, cyclone-proof, and thoughtfully designed to stay cool with fans and breezes through the large French style doors. Helen even handcrafted a flower crown for my wife and invited us to a beautiful dinner under the stars. When we asked about cultural shows, she personally called around to try to get us in. Her husband Tef, a kind and humble man , added to the warm and welcoming family-like atmosphere. Their hospitality was genuine and unforgettable. We left with full hearts and lasting memories of this beautiful place and its beautiful people in Aitutaki. This isn’t just a place to stay, it’s an opportunity to connect with the people, the history and spirit of Aitutaki. We feel incredibly grateful to have met Helen and Tef!

We had an amazing time staying at Pira's place and Aitutaki was the highlight of our trip. This is the type of place for those who aren't into the big resorts and would like to be in a peaceful and private location. Beautiful views out on to the lagoon, everything you need is provided. Pira organised picking us up and dropping off to the airport as well as a car for the duration of the trip (definitely recommend having your own transport to get around), and booked us on a lagoon cruise for the following day which is a must do! She also showed us around all the main spots we might want to check out and gave recommendations. Such a great host and really made us feel welcome. We would love to come back some day.

Lovely and beautiful bungalow right by the sea, very cozy and private. Location is great but I do recommend renting a car or a scooter. Brooke kindly organized a scooter for us which was a great way to explore the island! Would definitely recommend staying at barefoot bungalow and enjoy the laid back island life of Aitutaki :-)
