At Tahiti Homes ® we select the best vacation rentals available and we do manage most of them for an ultimate service and experience.

We do our utmost to care about our guest’s satisfaction, which is our top priority. Besides giving our guests the keys of their holiday rental, we coordinate their travel to our other fabulous islands by booking a car, a bus transfer, or an excursion. We fill the fridge before their  arrival, and choose a chef for a private dinner and much more to make them feel at home and enjoy a stress less vacation.

Whether you are traveling for leisure or you are on a business trip; Tahiti Homes has the right house, right villa or right serviced apartment matching your expectations and needs.

THE TEAM

Emily Biotteau-Colas, Owner and Director of Tahiti Homes ®, arrived in French Polynesia early in the 2000’s to join her husband, a native of Tahiti. Her first plan was to arrive in French Polynesia for just a couple of months but finally she felt in love with the islands and their people. In Tahiti she worked for one of the largest tour operators. Then for almost nine years, she worked for one of the largest luxury hotel groups. As marketing and sales deputy director she traveled the world promoting the destination. Her knowledge of the islands, their attractions, their people and their culture is well known.

Emily realized that here in Tahiti some accommodation alternatives were not available to visitors. Travelers to Tahiti rent properties all over the world and in Tahiti only a couple of owners were renting their home to visitors. In 2011, she co-founded and managed the first vacation rental company in French Polynesia. In 2013 she launched Tahiti Homes ®, a vacation rental and realty company with her vision and many more services. Very active with the local authorities, she is a member of the board of directors of the Tahiti Tourism Office (GIE Tahiti Tourisme) and 2nd vice-president of the real estate agents association (FPAIM – Fédération Polynésienne des Agents Immobiliers)

Laina Tsang has been in the travel industry for the past 15 years. Native from Tahiti, she first started her career as a teacher before realizing she wanted to travel the world and be in contact with people and other cultures. During 5 years, she worked for the famous and most renowned luxury cruise in the world, Paul Gauguin cruise ship, as head Gauguine welcoming and entertaining first class guests sharing Polynesian culture through various handcraft activities but also dancing, singing, playing guitare and ukulele. Her strong skills in guests relation and management brought her to the hospitality industry within the Legends Resort in Moorea. For 3 years she improved her skills in dealing with reservation as well as coordinating the high standard required in term of housekeeping and hotel room product quality. Laina joined Tahiti Homes ® in February 2014 as Director Assistant, serious and guest oriented she also brings lots of energy and dynamism to the team.
