#### Watch a film adaptation of one of this writer’s famous novels and get a sense of family life in Tahiti in the 1930s.

The James Norman Hall Home is a museum dedicated to an American author and military fighter who served in World War I and his wife, Sarah Teraireia Winchester Hall. It was set up by their daughter in the couple’s former house to depict their daily lives. Learn about an important writer and get a sense of the family’s time in the house.

Arrive at the charming home and admire the green façade surrounded by an enchanting garden with plants and flowers. See the period furniture decorating the inside of the house and browse the many photos of James Norman Hall. He is described here as an adventurer, soldier, pilot, essayist and poet.

Read some of his best-known works, such as *Mutiny on the Bounty* and *Men Against the Sea*. Find out about the nine movies made from six of his books. Watch one of the film adaptations in the tearoom.

The house has several other rooms, including the couple’s bedroom and an extensive library. Read fascinating anecdotes about the family and piece their lives together through the displays of artifacts and paintings.

Inspect the military uniforms that decorate mannequins. Hall served military factions in Great Britain, France and the U.S. and won several awards, including the Croix de Guerre and the Distinguished Service Cross.

Find out from accounts from the couple’s daughter, Nancy Ella Hall Rutgers, about what it was like to grow up in this serene coastal area in the 1930s. She set up the museum to honor her parents’ memory.

The museum is open daily from Tuesday through Saturday from morning until late afternoon. There is a fee to enter.

The James Norman Hall Home is in the commune of Ārue in northern Tahiti. It is a short walk from the shoreline. Visit nearby attractions in the region, such as the Seventh-Day Adventist Church, the Tomb of King Pomare V and the Royal Pomare Cemetery.

8.4/10 Very Good! (1,005 reviews)

Potential for a fantastic resort. Beautiful location, and probably was at one time a top notch facility. It is dated and has evidence of wear. For the prices charged , the qualtiy of both the service and food is generally acceptable, but just average. Maybe because I was traveling solo, as I got a vibe it was not normal to see that at their resort, but a couple other solo travelers and couples said the same thing. It was a last minute booking, so not much esle was available, and is my first trip to Tahiti so I may be over-expecting service and food. Nonetheless, I would stay again in a pinch but wouldnt be a first choice.
