"we liked the access to the beach, the local store one block from us, the fresh baked goods, the local restaurants near by, did miss a outdoor grill to cook some fresh fish and meats for dinner, "
"Was absolutely amazing, me and the wife would like go back again and again I’d highly recommend staying there or the Hilton we switched to a air b and b because of the price over a 2 week stay I’m making my Expedia review at 2 am moorea time because she is so mad at me with the air b and b is brutal.
The staff are amazing so nice
The food is $$ but half decent
The drinks are $$$$ and fairly strong
The water is somthing you’ll never see again unless your there
The beds are great
The shower pressure was amazing this place is just somthing els I’d go back every day I could. "
"Loved everything about the property in general. The resort itself is beautiful and the view from the oceanside is breathtaking (directly across from Moorea). We saw a school of dolphins playing the first morning we arrived. The infinity pool is also beautiful.
Did not like the toilet in the bedroom. It was a strange oblong/rectangle shape, too high off the ground and extremely uncomfortable. There was a sink in the toilet room that was too tiny, and the towel ring was close to the floor and toilet. Quite odd and not super sanitary. Otherwise, the room itself was very spacious and clean.
Nice little kitchenette, although it was advertised there would be a "full-size" refrigerator and it was only a mini fridge.
Showerhead had a lot of mineral buildup and the water did not go down the drain very quickly, leading to a lot of pooling of water on the floor.
Breakfast buffet was decent (included - not sure if I would pay extra because it is the same every single day).
Lots of mosquitoes...bring bug spray and itch cream!
8.5/10 would recommend."
"Wonderful location, super quiet and very nice staff. Direct access to the lagoon with kayaks and Sups available. Breakfast included, on the beach with your feet in the water. That's where I'll go again next time. Mauruuru Roa.
