Our Homemade Specialities

GOOD EATS
Here at the guesthouse we can offer you some new culinary experiences – our cuisine is inspired by the best of our fresh local produce, combining Polynesian flavors with other cuisines. You will be sure to taste the islands’ famous taro, as well as fresh fish and a host of other tropical fruits and vegetables.
Dishes like our wahoo carpaccio, breadfruit soup, sweet potato gratin, vanilla mahi-mahi and Creole crepes (served with our homemade vanilla ice-cream). Enjoy!


Homemade jams
In Rurutu we are lucky to have an abundance of fruits year round, so we are proud to always be able to offer you a selection of homemade jams - using grapefruit, lime, papaya, mango, banana, guava and other exotic fruits, depending on seasonal availability.

Rurutu Coffee
Grown, roasted, ground and enjoyed in Rurutu, it's the best choice for breakfast.

SHOPPING

The ladies of the Austral Islands are well known for their skills in weaving mats, hats and bags from various organic fibers, including Pandanus and niau (coconut- leaf fibre).
During your stay be sure to drop in to visit the numerous 'fare artisanats' on the island.

Various other local products and handicrafts can be found, including wood and stone carvings, our homemade jams and soaps.
