Unlike its neighbor Bora-Bora, <strong>Maupiti has no luxury hotels<\/strong>. The inhabitants did not want it ... So,<strong> the atmosphere remained very authentic<\/strong> and the only accommodations are B &amp; Bs and boarding houses.<\/p>\n<p>I tested <a href=\"https:\/\/petitesbullesdailleurs.fr\/en\/maupiti-polynesie-20130215\/\">the pension of the motu Auira<\/a>, held by the adorable Gilbert and Edna (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/maupitipension.auira\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">see here their Facebook page<\/a>). Comfort is simple: bed with mosquito net, fan, shower, in a <em>fare<\/em> (bungalow) individual, on a beautiful beach! In reality, you don't need anything more in Polynesia... And it's a real pleasure to feel at home, to have the impression of being part of the family, after having accompanied Gilbert fishing and tasted his tasty raw fish marinades with coconut milk.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_9632\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-9632\" style=\"width: 750px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><a href=\"https:\/\/petitesbullesdailleurs.fr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/01-pension.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-large wp-image-9632\" src=\"https:\/\/petitesbullesdailleurs.fr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/01-pension-750x422.jpg\" alt=\"View of Maupiti, from the beach of Auira motu.
