Our hostess Edith is a TREASURE! We chose Hotel Tauraa for the photos of the beautifully landscaped grounds, with many sculptures and tropical plants. We never imagined how welcome and cared-for we would feel during our 3-night stay. First, we didn’t expect to be greeted at the airport with leis made by Edith from materials in her own garden. We missed out on that by hurrying out to begin the 15-minute walk to the hotel, but we still got the leis. ;) At the hotel, she immediately offered fresh juice and wanted to be sure that we had pre-booked tours of the island and artifacts, which we hadn’t. She immediately got on the phone to a couple of her best tour contacts and managed to book 2 days with Claudio who miraculously had a cancellation and was able to give us a private tour on both days (we could a whole review on how great HE was). We recommend contacting Edith after booking the hotel to ask her to arrange tours for you. The made-to-order breakfasts were artistically arranged, extravagant and delicious, including fresh-fruit smoothies. When we had a problem with our room’s refrigerator, Edith came right over and swapped it out. Her husband Bill is friendly, charming and helpful. We hope you have the opportunity to enjoy a unique island experience on Rapa Nui, which staying at Hotel Tauraa.

I really enjoyed my stay. Edith took the time make me a wonderful healthy breakfast every morning that was fresh and tasty with great coffee. She also spent some time telling me about her family history on the island which was truly fascinating. An airport pickup and drop off was also included. Thanks Edith!

This hotel is a lovely property owned by an English speaking couple. It is in a very convenient part of town, and is in a beautiful part of the island. One big bonus is air conditioning and the home cooked breakfast each morning is amazing! They made it a lovely stay.

An amazing stay on Easter Island. Our host picked us up from and dropped us off at the airport and had an amazing breakfast ready for us before each day of exploring. The property is gorgeous. The cutest little garden within walking distance of the full city of Hanga Roa.

Edith and Bill were wonderful hosts. They met us at the airport and took up back for our return flight. The breakfast provided is wonderful. The rooms are simple, comfortable and air condited with lovely verandas to sit out side and seating in a lovely outdoor lobby . When we were on the islandt.our plane was canceled creating chaos as almost all hotels in town were full. Despite being full Edith found a way to accommodate us speaking with other guests. I am.in my 60s, did not have camping gear so it would have been difficult for me to sleep all night outside or on the condrete as it is a very small airport. I am grateful for all they did for us during our stay and highly recommend this hotel, which is small and more like a very comfortable and veey welcoming homestay.

This is a lovely and very convenient place to stay. But the REAL attraction is Edith, the owner. She is a delightful women whose attention to detail and her guests is almost unprecedented in my experience. Like most hotels, even the nicest ones, I'll eventually forget the details. But I wont forget Edith. She made this a memorable stay.

Very good location to everything, bed comfortable. Staff were friendly and helpful. Bill, the manager, was very personable and provided great tips on where to eat; and set me up with a Rapanui guide who was just awesome. Bring your own shampoo as I only got one tiny bottle and it was not replaced. No bar soap, shower gel or tissue provided. Bed lamps were more like spot lights versus lamps. Sometimes got 2 towels, sometimes one. A/C installed but I never needed it as wx was lovely and ceiling fan kept temps pleasant.

The property is located in the perfect spot in town, making it easy to walk to get dinner, go to a tour agency, or walk to the beach. Along with that, the staff is incredibly nice and accommodating, making sure you get to and from the airport easily, and making breakfast, among other things! The property itself is also beautiful, lovely flowers everywhere, the rooms themselves are large and clean, have air conditioning, and each room has a patio to sit outside on!
