Lodges in Moorea

All was perfect!!

We had the place to ourselves so relaxed straight into the tranquil setting. The bed was very comfortable. The open-air kitchen area above the bungalow had fabulous views and was well maintained. Best of all, the pool was fabulous and we used it frequently to cool down from the heat. The gardens also are very well maintained and have plenty of fruit trees (papaya, passion fruit, etc). There were plenty of birds that came to visit. It is about 1km from the centre of Maharepa, where there are restaurants, shops, etc. which can be very hot to walk in the day and dark to walk back at night, but we managed without too much of a problem. There is a supermarket about 150m from the property which was well stocked - the fresh tuna was amazing value. The host, Laurent, was very helpful and kindly picked us up and dropped us off at the airport.

Great location next to the lagoon with good snorkelling 80 - 150 metres out. We had the lagoon to ourselves except for a few locals and saw rays, a reef shark and plenty of other fish over the six days we stayed. The extremely helpful and cheerful lady who looks after the place made our stay a very pleasant one. You do need transport since you’re away from the built up areas and it’s best to book this beforehand. Swimming with whales with Corallina tours was a highlight.

Location was nice and private, swimming pool was great.
