"It is convenient to the airport, with a ride to and from the airport provided. The room was air conditioned, and a great traditional Tahitian continental breakfast for a small fee. If you need assistance with stairs, that could be challenging. We didn’t use it but we saw a jacuzzi and washer/dryer. Would stay here again. I believe the owner lives in one area and the rooms are on one side of the property."
"Sunset Beach is the ideal hotel for snorkelers and divers. The lagoon is huge, and you can take shark and whale excursions right from the bay. Alternatively, you can just snorkel from the beach or go further out with a kayak. The apartments are spacious and fully equipped with kitchens. There’s a restaurant on site called Les Tipaniers. It’s on the beach but doesn’t seem to be affiliated with the hotel. It was perfect for breakfast, dinner or drinks and serves lunch too."
"Superb customer service. Phenomenal ocean access to the most stunning waters, and so useful to have SUPs and kayaks easily on hand. Plus, walking distance to many restaurants and shop. Location beats the other hotel resorts on moorea"
"It was great place to use as a transient hotel, however, very difficult to walk to from airport. Taxi ride is expensive $20USD for how far they had to go!"
"I wish we’d spent more time at Cooks Bay Resort! A quick 20 minute taxi ride from the ferry dock on Moorea brings you to a lovely open air entrance looking over a beautiful infinity pool and private beach. The rooms are large suites with kitchenettes. Very comfy bedding and beds. Gorgeous waterfront restaurant with delicious food and drinks. We can’t wait to visit again."
"We loved being right on the water. Huge apartment and deck over the water. Many fish in the water all the time. Didn't like that the cat had access to our bath and kitchen areas. Nice cat but did get on the counter in the kitchen. There's no way to lock the cat out because two of the walls were open to the garden."
If you're interested in something a little quirkier than your standard hotel experience, a stay at a bed and breakfast could be a great option for your getaway.
