Our stay on Mo'orea was magical in a big part as a result of Hotel Fenua Mata'i'oa. From the moment we arrived we were made to feel welcomed, wanted, and cared for. A tremendous amount of thought went into the layout of the grounds, sitting areas, and rooms. Hotel Fenua Mata'i'oa seems to have been designed by someone with an eye for design, comfort, uniqueness, and romance. Our stay was nothing short of enchanting.
