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.

This is my second visit to this idyllic spot in Moorea. A family run group of budget rustic cottages on the lagoon next door to the Hilton. The onsite restaurant serves very high quality food and a simple breakfast is included. The hotel sits oceanfront on a beautiful area of the lagoon with rays, sharks and fish cruising by all day. Air conditioned rooms which is rare in Tahiti and kayaks included, good for family on a budget.

The property was right on a beautiful lagoon filled with coral, fish, rays and a few small sharks. The restaurant is facing the water and is really cute and the food is great. Only a short walk away is the Moorea Hilton which has the best crepes. Kayaks and paddle boards were included in the nightly fee which was really nice.

On a budget this place gets 5 stars! The location is gorgeous and the staff really friendly. The only drawback is transportation, but that's the entire island not this pensions issue. Best to rent a car or scooter for Moorea period.

There are electrical problems in this apartment. The power will constantly shut down when you turn on the water heater, and you will have to go downstairs to flip the circuit breaker when it happens. I did it so many time and it's very frustrating. The air conditioner on the dinning room has water leaking when it's on. The towls are horrible. The only thing I like is the location and parking. I would rather spend more and stay in a hotel next time.

Fare Maheata is a great place run by a local family, all of whom are friendly and helpful. It provides simple comfortable accomodation with fans & aircon, full kitchen and bathroom, and everything you need for a great stay. The best part is the beautiful white sand beach on which it is located, where you eat lunch with your feet in the water (if you wish). Rays and fish swim by as you eat breakfast. It has a restaurant, open 5 days a week, and provides a simple breakfast if you want it. A great place at a very affordable price.
Fare Maheate is a great place to relax, do some swimming or snorkeling. Excursions with a separate outfit are available. Jean is offering rides to the supermarket, if needed, but meals can be ordered at the pension.
The beach leads gradually into deeper water, which appeals to some swimmers. Just a great place to relax.

This is a family run pension with friendly staff, set on a picturesque private beach. The fish swim right up to the shore, there are comfortable chairs and tables on the beach and a stunning view of the sunset each night. The accomodation is basic but clean. The restaurant has wonderful platters/tapas and an excellent drink selection. You need a vehicle to access the supermarket and ATM. We would return again.
