this page, New Caledonia/Polynesia prices 2

They date from the end of 1999 or 2002 for the most part, and they are only a historical reference. Looking to update in 2017 via the Internet, I noted an increase of 50% on two excursions, Isle of Pines and Tetiaroa, which is not huge over seventeen years. This is only an indication. Prices in Tahiti are comparable to those in Noumea, with a few exceptions.
The Internet offers talented newsreelers, but not many talk about their galley, preferring to stream waves of beautiful pictures of dreams.
. After a very brief search, I found this blog from 2009   unboutdeviesurlecaillou.over-blog.com/       where we treat a little bit of everything, food included, for a life of two "very modest", not far from "happy indigence", which caught my attention. Or 1600 €/month two + installation, when for others at the same time, the estimate is 4000 € min, which I want to believe. The cost of living is constantly increasing.
For housing, it's Paris, said another.
It is advisable not to venture there without a serious and signed work contract, because without it, finding the right accommodation would be very difficult, despite the amount of the deposits. Unless you settle "on your own", but be careful, dams possible if you disturb. Paradise is not easy to access

Prices are in Pacific Francs, marked CFP, Xpf, or even pfF
The value of the Pacific French price is crazy ? start by dividing it by one hundred!
