Valerie very friendly and accommodating. Property is a little worn (a throwback to a different era), but charming. Loved the owner’s dachshund and cat.

We loved our stay at Villa Yrondi! The view of the bay and the mountain from our dining area was gorgeous. Our apartment was clean and comfortable, filled with beautiful art and fully stocked with needed items. . The manager, Valerie, was so kind and helpful, booking several taxi rides for us and always ready for any questions we might have. For an extra fee, the delicious continental style breakfasts were delivered to our patio each morning: eggs any style (we had cheese omelettes), choice of coffee, tea or hot chocolate, and fresh rolls and pastry with butter and jam. Air conditioning in the bedrooms. We loved the open air style of the Sculpture unit. I would definitely come back again.

We had a wonderful stay at this property located on a little hill with breathtaking views from the terrace. The room was clean and cozy. We had a little kitchen and patio area to ourselves. The building construction is Tuscan and artistic. We loved it!

The service from Paulina and Valerie was top notch, property was beautiful and clean, beds were comfortable, only improvement would be to have some fans to use instead of aircon, otherwise was a wonderful stay and would return in future

We found character, charm and kindness at Villa Yr
Villa Yeondi is filled with character and charm. Our suite was spacious and comfortable and we particularly enjoyed our terrace. It was lovely to eat breakfast surrounded by flowers while taking in the incredible view. Valerie was wonderful and helped us iron out travel complications and arranged a snorkeling trip that was the highlight of our stay on the island.

What a view!
The Villa provided us with a wonderful home on the road on Bora Bora. What a unique setting, and rambling residence that has a balcony view of the bay that is excellent for the AM coffee and breakfast. We enjoyed coming back to our suite after a full day of adventure ... service was excellent!

We will cherish the view from our upper level apartment (Sculpture) and view deck for a long long time. It was quite spectacular.
The apartment was very spacious and comfortable with AC in both bedrooms. There is an adequately equipped kitchen and large bathroom. Mr. Yrondi’s paintings and statutes adorn the apartment. The villa is a truly unique place to stay on the island.
Valerie, the manager, is friendly, helpful and available. Merci, Valerie!
The villa is a bit removed from the Vaitape center. We rented a car for some of the time to get around the island; otherwise we used Jerry Taxi service which was excellent. Bikes and vespas would work as well. The famed Matira beach is about a 5 minute drive. We hope to return.

2/10 Poor
BEWARE of this property. My stay at Villa Yrondi in Bora Bora was an unfortunate letdown. The reality was a far cry from the outdated images listing, creating an unwelcome sense of a bait-and-switch.
The villa was neglected, with dirt and scuff marks on the walls of the room and scum visibly accumulated in the shower and the bathroom had dirty doors. The outdoor furniture was in a state of disrepair, and the pool disappointingly small. Even indoors, the lamp in our room was broken, old coiled cables hiding in the stained drapes, the blanket had cigarette burns and the kitchen had an unlockable window directly connected to a disorganized storage room providing a sense of insecurity and the general state of the property further emphasizing the lack of maintenance.
Despite raising complaints, both Villa Yrondi and Expedia provided no satisfactory resolution or refund. In short, my supposed paradise getaway felt more like a ruse. Prospective visitors, tread carefully - this is one case where the reality doesn't match the advertising. I do not know why Expedia would label this exceptionally clean. I have photographs of all these items, BEWARE!

Run down, terrace, open to outside, horrible.
Its a run down house converted into a few rooms. Our "room" was a terrace converted to a "room". It had a door but it was a terrace so it was open from the side. Anyone could easily climb into our room. The bedroom did not have a door, just curtains and the living room was open-literally open- to the outside. We had big spiders, tons of mosquitoes and lizards in our bedroom. The landlady said that it was normal to have insects and reptiles in the room and even "Four Seasons has them in their rooms" which was pretty hilarious. There is no safety from animals or strangers as it is completely open. There were supposedly 2 "bedrooms" but the other one was locked so two of us spent the night on one twin bed. There is no one in the office except check in time to help you or answer your questions. We had a tiny little bottle of shampoo for a 4 person room and no way to get extra. Most of the pictures shown on hotels.com are of the outside, very few of the room itself and none of the bathroom which is horrible.There is no fan or ac in the living room.We were booked for 2 nights but we left after the first night. We were scared to stay there.We could not pay cash at check out as the office is always closed. we sent a message to the landlady via hotels.com to send us a payment link. Before we could pay she called us and threatened to call the police on us as if we had refused to pay. She showed no courtesy and did not even discount our stay. A Motel6 is 100 times better than this place

It’s a great more affordable option on Bora Bora. The style is like an old European villa, so there aren’t windows, which means no privacy and flies though.

Valérie nous reçoit chaleureusement et organise en quelques minutes une tournée de l’île très intéressante avec Dora comme guide-chauffeur! Des bicyclettes sont aussi disponibles.
Très heureux de mon séjour.
Recommandé!

Valerie was an exceptional host; very accommodating.
The Villa is not a 5 star resort, but a quaint and charming property and an experience not seen elsewhere in French Polynesia. Anyone who complains about Villa Yrondi, has failed to understand the context in which the Villa operates. If you can think past the pretty pictures and set real expectations the property will deliver.

Beautiful views, comfortable stay
Stayed 5 nights mid April in Sacriste apartment and so glad we stayed at Villa Yrondi. Views are as pictured and spectacular. No onsite restaurant but we bought light groceries at Chin Lee market and made own breakfast daily in the kitchenette. Valerie was amazing and so helpful. All staff was friendly. We had a small car and glad we did. Parking is tight so let them know in advance. If we ever came back we would certainly try Villa Yrondi first.

Villa Yrondi is an amazing property with unforgettable views of Mount Otemanu and the lagoon. The hostes Valerie is very kind and welcoming. Her attention to every detail pairs seamlessly with Garrick Yrondis beautiful artworks. Our time at Villa Yrondi will not be forgotten. From the lush grounds to the beautiful staff and the properties guard dog (an adorable little Daschaund) Villa Yrondi is truly one of a kind.

This was a beautiful place—the curb appeal is very good. But you are basically on your own here. Breakfast had been advertised, but once I arrived, I found out food is available only in high season. If you have a car, then you will do brilliantly here, but we were on foot and the area around the hotel is a main road with traffic and many barking, snarling, free-wandering dogs. So you can’t walk anywhere from here. Again, if you have a car and go grocery shopping, there is a kitchen for your use and you can do very well here. I think this place may be trying to be a hotel, but is more of an AirB&B. We were greeted by a lovely receptionist with a welcome gift of fresh fruit, and she set up our dinner reservation and return taxi, which was all amazing, but then we never saw anyone in the office again, so you are truly on your own here. WiFi and AC were very good, and we even got to meet the resident artist and his adorable little pup! Fine place to stay if you know your way around and have a car. If you’re a tourist with no idea about the island, might be good to stay somewhere with a lot of staff and close to food.

Très beau site. Il faut un moyen de locomotion, à tout le moins une bicyclette (bécane que l'on peut louer sur place), car épicerie, resto, plage sont à quelques kilomètres. On n'offre plus le petit déjeuner mais nos quartiers étaient dotés d'une cuisinette avec plaque électrique, micro-ondes et bouilloire.

A most beautiful hidden gem in Bora Bora. Mr Yrondi, an avid artist who lives on the premise, has designed a gorgeous Mediterranean-style villa adorned by his beautiful paintings and sculptures. If you are tired of commercial hotels, try this little nugget.

This Villa is a special place with a lovely host. We enjoyed the breakfast option and made use of the decent bikes to go to Matira beach. Sunset from the terraces was amazing. We liked the indoor/outdoor living while still using Air Con in the bedroom when needed. There’s an elite restaurant just down the driveway- book well in advance.
