Find Hotels in Moorea Island, French Polynesia

We stayed at Pearl Resort and Spa for 6 nights. Were were in a family room, duplex type. Plenty of space. Rooms were cleaned daily, althought at random times. Apart from CNN there were no English channels available so not alot of tv watching at night. Room was airconditioned and sometime we had to keep it on during the night. It occasionally made loud noises but no big deal. Beds were pretty comfortable. Staff were so friendly and helpful. Pool is the largest on the island and is child-friendly. Beach was cleaned all the time and the water was crystal clear. Lots of different fish can be seen by the bungalows so if you are into snorkeling you will enjoy it. Apart from breakfast we didnt eat the the restaurant. Prices were pretty high compared to some other vacation spots but it is French Polynesia. Maharepa is only few minutes walk from the resort and you can get some groceries from the local mini market. There is a great, cheap restaurant across the road from the resort. Many locals eat there. Not opened on Tuesdays and Wednesdays unfortunately. Room service was good and food prepared very quickly. The only minor thing thats lacking is some form of entertainment in the evening. Apart from Tahitian show there is no alot happening. Excursion to Lagoonarium was the highlight of our holiday. It is a must do. You can have it arranged by a lovely Japanese lady at the hotel in the main lobby. Overall a fabulous holiday. We would recommend it and would definitely return to Moorea Pearl Resort and Spa.

I manage 25 vacation rental homes on the north coast of Oregon hence know the Sunset Beach Residence facility on the beautiful island of Moorea is a good one. New, clean, adequate stocked units are idea for a family and folks who don't like the resort scene. Really liked the deck. However, folks that don't speak french or don't know the area may struggle to procure food and amusement even though Matteau and his staff were excellent.

Tamas, the owner, was extremely helpful and nice! On the terrace, we watched perhaps the most beautiful sunsets from all our trips in French Polynesia and afterwards, the sky full of stars. Feeling at ease and enjoying wonderful nature and the company of other nice people staying at the hotel! I would recommend to have a car though, although anywhere in Moorea it would be highly recommended, at least for part of the time. There were bikes provided to go to a supermarket or so though.

We loved our stay here. We actually caught the 7.30am ferry over to Moorea and had no expectations that we would be able to check into our bungalow until later but the amazingly staff had it ready for us within 15 minutes. We were in garden view bungalow number 4 which was about 5 rows back from the beach but that suited us fine as you didn’t have people constantly walking past you. The beach is stunning. Crystal clear waters. Lovely shallow lagoon that is safe for the children. Full of colourful fish. We hired kayaks and went snorkeling out between the 2 island motus. Amazing! Also hired a small motor boat and went the very short distance to the spot where you swim with the sharks and rays...even more amazing. We did find the restaurant food very expensive but that is the case everywhere. There are shops about a 10 min walk away. We made a lot of our meals in the room. Totally loved this place. I’d say it’s the best location on Moorea. Thank you for a wonderful stay

We were on Tahiti went we decided to spend a weekend at Moorea. We had less choice since we were last minute. Hibiscus was recommended by people in our group. We paid the price since nothing much was available and we didn’t feel the AirBnB available. Being on a trip around the world, we visited many many hotels and for the price, this one was disappointing. The location is great, but minimal service is provided (no welcome drink, no showing you to the room, etc.) and they have a firewall on their WiFi that render it useless. We did many island in Polynesia and the excuse of being on an island is not acceptable, especially at this price. So to sum up, we had hotel at 20$ that were way better than this one at 300$. Location isn’t everything. If you have a choice, pick another hotel, you may be more in luck than us.

We stayed at Kaveka several nights and were really happy with our decision to spend most of the time in Moorea at this place. The price is quite ok for French Polynesia and the bungalow was nicely decorated in polynesian style. Rooms were quite modern and clean. Staff was very helpful and we enjoyed the quiet atmosphere as there were not many guests around. We would definitely return to this place again in the future. It is possible to walk within 10-15 minutes to MAhareepa, where there are small shops, souvenir shops, restaurants, banks and a post office.

If you can't afford an over water bungalow on Moorea, then this place will suffice if you don't mind simplicity. We wished we had booked more than two nights as we could just sit and look at the lagoon. The lagoon isn't great here so you'll need transportation to get around, taxis cost a fortune. The restaurant isn't great - but that's all over French Polynesia, unless you want to spend a lot of money.

Wonderful hosts, happy to include us in trips to the bank, grocery, etc. Great location next to the Hilton, but also with its own private beach. Our bungalow was large with full kitchen. Think beach house or summer cabin. Nice common room for relaxation. We enjoyed a trrrific meal, reasonably priced, made by Jean and his family. If you want luxury, go to the Hilton, but this is a nice economical alternative.

The value for what you get is most excellent. We returned from a week long catamaran trip and caught the ferry from Tahiti to Moorea. Linareva was on the west side of the island. We rented a car at the ferry location on the east side and off we went. 60kms (36 miles) is the distance around the island. We arrived at the resort and checked in. There are maybe 7 or 8 buildings which were mostly built for large groups and very nicely decorated and well-maintained. Our bungalow was for two people and had a kitchenette. The interior was clean with all that we needed which included a couple of resident geckos which didn't bother us. There was an honor bar with wine, beer, soda, and bottled water. We were told not to drink the tap water. We never bought any of the meals that the resort offered. There is one large grocery store on the island and many smaller markets. We cooked all our meals except one. Walked down the road to Daniel's pizza. It was excellent thin crust pizza freshly prepared in a wood-fired oven by a Frenchman. The grounds with grass, flowers, and fruit trees are kept neat and tidy. The snorkeling, kayaking, paddle boarding was most excellent. Bicycles are available too. All the equipment is provided without charge. You could exercise your choice for several miles if you wanted to. The reef around the island makes it possible. Dive equipment for rent and guides for hire are also on-site. The resort has a long jetty out to a drop off into the lagoon. Saw a 10 foot nurse shark, 3 black tip sharks, moray eel, octopus, sting rays, and colorful fish galore. The black tips were curious and would hang around the snorkelers. No one was frightened. The owner, Roland, was very friendly and made you feel welcomed and special. His staff was just as friendly. If we ever return to French Polynesia, we will spend all our time on Moorea at Linareva. We highly recommend Linareva Moorea Beach Resort. It really is a great value for the money.

A beautiful boutique lodge, located on a very scenic spot of Moorea. Full of peace and nature, we loved the strong breeze which blew in straight from the ocean. The beach is at the backdoor, and the crashing waves can be heard from your bungalow at night. The hosts were extremely welcoming and we felt a part of their friendship group. We were made to feel like guests within their home, and they were always willing to listen. They have 2 very chilled out dogs who love to watch from the shade. It is important to consider hiring a scooter or car when staying here as restaurants are a small distance and Taxi's are expensive. This accommodation suits the traveller who likes to be known as an individual with personality, and not just a room number. Highly recommended place, full of beauty from the comfort to the people. Take a mosquito net. A great place to practise your French too!

The pension is located away from the heavy tourist area of Moorea. In my opinion, the nicest part of the island. Included, were bicycles and canoes. Naturally, we took advantage of both. The front yard across the street, there were mangroves and in the morning, looking out on the balcony, one could spots stingrays close by and further outside the lagoon, dolphins and sometimes humpback whales were out cruising. We spent hours and hours out in the reef. The corals and fishes were simply magnificent. When we were not out snorkeling, we were cycling. In total, we must have gone about half way around the island. With the scooter, we went around several times and never got tired out the scenery. Elda made sure that we got the most out of our stay in Moorea. She helped us with the highlights and made tour arrangements. At check-out time, we had made arrangements with the person who rented us the scooter, when he came for the scooter, that he would then drop us off at the airport. Well, there was a misunderstanding and we ended up stranded. Elda reassured us not to worry because she would drive us. Our stay at Fare d'notes Tehuarupe was great. I definitely recommend the place if you want a great location, clean accommodation, and friendly host. Our stay in Moorea was memorable in every way thanks to Elda and her husband.

You have just arrived in French Polynesia after a long overnight flight and you want to experience the real Moorea...forget about all these big resorts that lack personality and go to Fenua Mata'i'oa instead. This little gem offers all you wish for and more: a lovely room surrounded by a really lush garden with lovely sea views for you to enjoy. Unlike large resorts it is very peaceful despite having everything on your doorstep. Food is outstanding too...epic breakfasts and local dishes for dinner:...Eileen will not let you starve!! Eileen, the proud owner of this hidden gem, makes this place even more special. She will make sure you have the best possible time here and will look after you exceptionally well. Trust her when she recommends activities or places to see: she knows best and we were never disappointed. We had an amazing stay and would definitely come back. Eileen can be proud of her place: it's intimate, welcoming, quirky and full of character...what else would you need...many thanks!!!

It is a beautiful location, wonderful place to experience the interior of the island. The garden is lovely, nice pool and very clean accommodation....loved the bathroom. After a few days on the beach it was nice to experience something a bit different. We took a beautiful walk the next morning, seeing local life in the incredible interior, with close up views of the surrounding mountains. Highly recommend for a different experience from the beach. Very clean and meticulously cared for.

We loved the unique character of the villa - had a fun tropical feel to it with beautiful picturesque views of the pool and beach. As a family of five with older children there was ample room to spread out with plenty of seating, sun loungers etc. Kitchen was well equipped which made meal preparation easy. Having kayaks and free Wi-Fi was a plus. Great location to village and Pearl Resort. Our host Clement was a fun, helpful and accommodating person who was readily available if we needed anything. Clement picked us up from the ferry and returned us on our departure for no additional cost. The villa provided a fun location to get together with our friends who were staying at the Pearl Resort.

The place looks attractive on internet but bare minimum amenities. No comfortable chairs, scruffy mended sheets.TV is placed so high that there is no logical place to sit and watch. Wiring is really scary, detached behind TV, outlets near beds not functioning, light bulbs missing and existing ones very feeble. The bathroom has a constant pee smell, shower does not drain, cobwebs on ceiling, ants everywhere the 4 days we were there, around shower, toilet and both sinks. Exorbitant toilet paper charge after 2 rolls! Pots and pans [teflon] very scratched. Kitchen sink was half plugged. Advertised WIFI is a joke and when connected, was very feeble and only from outside deck. Stairs to the the bed [in house #2 at least] dangerous especially going down during the night. Pool is substandard, too shallow, uncomfortable lawn chairs. Advertised "private white sand beach" is an elevated sand box above boat ramp to lagoon. Location is noisy with road, construction, dogs and bus parking next door.

Its is one of the most beatiful pleace I ever stayed. The owners are amazing persons, there are very friendly and helpful. The Viev was spectular, lovely ladies. They organise for me a massage and they make a delicious dishes.Room cleaned everyday and fresh towels. Close to sofitel for paddleboarding and also nice beach. The facility was very comfortable. I recommned everyone this Amazing pleace. I really have to go back. Best Regards for 3 lovely womens!!!

Very kind hosts, Alex and Tea, went above and beyond to help me navigate the island -- made arrangements for a local restaurant to come pick me up for dinner (!) and also called the local bus operator AND the owner of other pensione I was staying at later in the week to make transfer arrangements. SO HELPFUL. It was like staying with family. Fare Tokoau is a bit removed from restaurants/groceries/shops, but with free access to a bike (albeit a rusty one), it was easy to get to. Also free kayaks on site to paddle to the island or just to a nearby snorkel spot. LOVED the little book in the room - it had maps and local information and was adorable. Room was ample size, large bathroom, kitchen that was sufficient for my needs. Small downsides were occasional mosquito swarms outside and that the AC in my room didn't work plus the overhead fan was weak... made for some hot nights of sleeping. But overall, for $90/night, I would stay here again in a heartbeat. Thanks for your hospitality!
