About the resort
The Tikehau Pearl Beach Resort can be found on a secluded, pink beach
fringed with palm trees at the southeast end of the atoll. Located
fifteen minutes by boat from the airport and the main village of
Tuherahera, this hotel serves as the ideal home base for any and all
leisurely activities including kayaking, snorkeling and biking. It even
has its own dive center on site, making it easy to arrange your daily
excursions.
Each spacious beach and overwater bungalow at the Tikehau Pearl Beach
Resort features a private veranda and a traditional design accented by
natural materials such as bamboo, exotic woods and coconut fibers. Both
the Tianoa Bar and Poreho Restaurant are located poolside, providing an
idyllic setting to admire the surrounding scenery by day and the starry
sky by night.
