Our second stay and wonderful, again! Amazing location, quiet, friendly staff, resturant & food trucks near. Grocery 1 mile and small grocery .5 mile. Great AC which is good for sleeping in this hot, humid climate. Great bathroom & shower with space for wet snorkel gear. Hotel restaurant not my favorite but other options near.

Very picturesque setting on Cook's Bay. Multitude of fish seen right from the dock. Room was nice and air conditioned. Staff were very friendly and we enjoyed the resident two cats and dogs. Food was only OK. Buffet breakfast was not worth the money.We would stay there again.

The staff here was beyond friendly, and always quite helpful. The location was perfect. We rented a car and did a tour of the whole island one day and decided that the views from our bungalow couldn't be beat! There are nicer beaches in the northwest of the island, and parts of the east, so if swimming/snorkeling is your focus, you'll need a car/scooter/bike. There are a number of great restaurant an easy walk away, Allo Pizza being one of our favorite. And there's a nice grocery store about a 15 minute walk from the hotel where you can but some ready-made meals, or get fruit, yoghurt, cheese, cereal and milk. Overall, this hotel offers great value, we definitely recommend it.

At first, I found myself completely fine with the accommodation, but once construction started up it was too noisy to be there. The lounge chairs by the water were mostly broken and even on my day of checkout when I had several hours before I needed to leave, they decided to clean the furniture on my porch by sanding it making it unavailable for me to use and impossible to have any kind of a restful experience. They asked for a US$20 deposit to have any use of beach towels and then an additional Fr.600 for daily use that is promised to be refunded upon departure. I did not have that kind of cash on me on a day that I needed to towel, I was given one for Fr.300 deposit as it was what I had in my hand. Then upon departure, I was refused the refund of the deposit, even though I returned the towel because I hadn’t given him the $20 deposit to begin with. Everyone was very nice to me until I checked out and then suddenly they were incredibly rude and refusing to refund my security deposit when it should’ve been returned given that the item I borrowed had been return to them in good condition. overall, the place is incredibly overpriced for what you get and given how much you’re spending you should be given beach towels and usable lounge chairs without being asked for additional funds.

Our room had only been completed just prior to our arrival and wreaked of paint during our entire stay.The toilet seat was broken for 3 days and hand towels were also not available.We had one meal at the restaurant and it was horrendous-we walked out without finishing it.The hotel has potential but needs a serious revamp and so does their kitchen & menu.Having said that one staff member Cindy was excellent and did everything she could to improve our stay.Also the beaches on the site are inaccessible for swimming and also quite treacherous as one of them has stone fish whose spines can cause a nasty infection.

The quality of the food was disappointing, and the what was available for breakfast, for the price that was charged, was very bad; the breads and hamburger buns were stale and like concrete! The staff never appealed enthusiastic or particularly welcoming. But we thoroughly enjoyed our holiday, Moorea is a beautiful relaxing idyllic place to cone

The location is ideal. Cooks Bay is a great area, walking distance to shops, restaurants, grocery, services and breathtaking beauty. The view is amazing from the restaurant and dock. We stayed in a lanai room, which means the back row by the road. These rooms are half the cost of the front row lagoon view rooms. Some rooms are really old, dated, in questionable condition and smell of mildew. Some cabins are brand new. The first one we stayed in had terrible odor and fired up my husband’s allergies. It also had an ant infestation. They were kind enough to move us to another room that smelled better and no ants. The snorkeling out front off the end of the dock was quite good. There’s a steep drop off and you’ll see a lot there. We saw tons of colorful fish, a giant nurse shark, an octopus, turtles and an eel. The little beach was never crowded and great for floating. The staff at Kaveka was super friendly and accommodating. The breakfast was crazy expensive so we walked to the Maharepa grocery every morning for the best fresh French pastries I have ever had! I hope the walk offset some of the calories! We also walked to pizza place quite close. It was great. We ate at Kaveka restaurant for dinner once and it was a big plate of delicious grilled fish and shrimp… enough for two of us to share. I would probably stay here again. The rooms not fantastic but for the price, it’s pretty good.

Beautiful location and big bungalow

Beachfront bungalow has the most incredible view. King bed is great for my tall spouse and it was very comfortable. We slept great all 3 nights as the property was small enough that other guests are spread out and we didn’t hear anything except the sounds of nature. We enjoyed eating dinner there each night too; lots of food options and convenient.

Rather moribund, understaffed and not as described. We had three major issues at Kaveka which tainted our time on Moorea. We had chosen it specifically because it is described as having “a private beach” and our chosen bungalow was “on the lagoon”. This is at best misleading and at worst a deliberate distortion. We found that only one or two of the bungalows have a beach with lagoon access. Our bungalow, and others, have a low sea wall with a patch of sand on the land side of the wall for our loungers. The sand also served as a main walkway for other guests so it is not private space. The hotel description mentions access to “beach umbrellas”. Our “beach” - the sandy area in front of the bungalow but behind the sea wall - received intense afternoon sunshine that mandated at least partial shade. But the staff told us that they do not provide beach umbrellas. The hotel description on Expedia is therefore wrong and needs to be updated. The hotel’s guest wi-fi was highly unreliable and intermittent. We complained twice over two days and each time we were told to wait while it was “reset”. I wasn’t going to waste more vacation time complaining more since I had reasonable cellular coverage. You might not have! Do yourself a favor, and avoid the temptation for what seems a good deal and instead pay extra for a better place - the Cook’s Bay Resort next door is modern and lovely - and perhaps just stay fewer days. Your vacation time will be so much better!

We searched Experdia for a hotel on Tahiti. Kaveka came up and looked good so we booked it and paid. We immediately realised the hotel was not on Tahiti and tried to cancel less than 5 minutes after booking. They did not suffer any loss or inconvenience, yet took our money and refused to reimburse one penny. What does that tell you about them?

The staff was very nice. The place is being renovated so perhaps it will steadily improve. The beach was unappealing. The food was extra expensive at the restaurant. The location was convenient to food shopping, a good food truck (roulette), to the public beach by the Sofitel and to hiking. Best of all, the price was relatively reasonable. So would I stay there again? Yes, likely so.
