When in Papeete, try to stay, (or at least film) at the ROYAL TAHITIAN Hotel just outside of town. It is still in it's original 60s modern condition, with Tiki poles around the lobby building, and the dining room has miniature huts. And local carvers have added great Tikis to the pool bar. (Ironically, the place was built by an American entrepeneur that now lives here in the Valley). Talk to the manager, he used to work at the HOTEL TAHARAA, which has the giant Tiki from OA under it's A-frame entrance (BOT p.245), another thing you should shoot: A Californian Tiki in Tahiti!
