The resort was beautiful, quiet and very clean. We stayed in a Premium Over Water Bungalow and really enjoyed seeing all the fish and the coral right underneath and around the bungalows. We enjoyed snorkeling along the bungalows also. We took a kayak out one day and also swam in the nice swimming pool. Some problems we encountered were with the dining. Twice I never got the drink I ordered and service was slow. The language barrier also caused a few problems also, but I know it was our fault as we don’t speak French or Polynesian. We were offered a discount breakfast package and we accepted after asking a couple of times if the price was for the whole week we were there and the lady said yes, but at checkout it was actually per person per day which came to $70 a day just for breakfast. The breakfast buffet was the same every morning and got old after a few mornings even when trying to have something different each morning. They didn’t have crepes or waffles. Also birds would fly in to the fruit area and stand on the food and take some. I didn’t think that was very sanitary. Overall a great, relaxing stay and we enjoyed our time there.
Very friendly staff in a beautiful place
This is an amazing hotel, from the location, staff, beauty, amenities and the Spa was incredible. We stayed in an overwater bungalow and it was stunning! Our staff greeted us and walked us through the property for a tour, the pool area is as stunning as the rest and the beach is very private. We were celebrating our 25th Anniversary and the hotel sent a wonderful bottle of Wine and macaroons to our room!❤️ We just loved everything about this hotel! The activities lady was so helpful. I highly recommend this to anyone considering a stay here!
The most beautiful place on the planet
Beautiful property with cabins over the pristine water or on the beach. Pool and beach toys available. Staff extremely helpful and pleasant.
Terrible experience! We actually had to leave to the Sofitel because how this property was.
Our two-night stay at Manava Beach Resort was truly a dream come true. From the moment we pulled into the parking lot, the staff was so friendly and efficient. Our bags were immediately moved from our trunk to our room and then the check-in process was quick and smooth. The front desk staff, especially Mathilde and Maeva, were so friendly as was Teremoana the towel guy at the pool. The facilities were all impeccably clean; our overwater bungalow and large and comfortable. We had a great lunch by the infinity pool and easily walked offsite for dining options. This was a very memorable stay and we can't wait to return next year!
Nice property but slightly dated. We had to bring our own bags to the room. There was a strange sound in our over water bungalow. Maintenance came quickly and determined that there was an issue with the boiler. We were moved to a premium overwater bungalow. Room was not cleaned in the 3 days we stayed there probably due to covid.
We liked the friendliness of the staff but didn't like that they didn't have answers to many of our questions. They should be knowledgeable of the property and with basic tourist information. And if they don't have an answer, make an effort to find the answer or at least point us in the right direction.
Perfect location. No need to stay anywhere else on Moorea.
Simply an amazing place you need to stay in a overwinter beach bungalow it is well worth the extra
Location, affordability, makes this property the number one choice when staying in Moorea. If you’re going to go to a Moorea it is an absolute that you spend time in a overwater beach bungalow it even has a glass window on the floor. Note if you are not used to how the French operate be patient and polite. But the management is always right on top of any concerns you may have. I cannot praise the management any higher for their customer service I would definitely go back here again and again and again it actually makes me sad to have to promote this place I would prefer that would stay a quiet secret I cannot praise the management any higher for their customer service I would definitely go back here again and again and again it actually makes me sad to have to promote this place I would prefer that it would stay a quiet secret
Thanks. I had a great staying with excellent services. I think the food should be little cheaper
Orbitz lied to me, when i originally booked my trip through orbitz i was told by orbitz that my package included a meal plan at the resort (i even taped the orbitz sales person tell me my package came with meal plan) later on the resort told me it did not. I had no choice but to pay for the meal plan. Orbitz also missguided me on the check baggage allowance. On my first two planes American airlines from JFK to LAX and Air Tahiti Nui from LAX to Faaa i was told i was allowed 2 checked bags, one carry on & personal item per person but on third connecting flight from papeete to moorea by Air tahiti i was charged $50 for my carry on and then another $50 on my way back from Moorea to papeete there was nothing i could do but pay it. I travel frequently and will never make travel arrangements using orbitz again and will tell my friends the same . The resort in Moorea had nothing to do with they were fabulous . We plan on going again but never through orbitz.
I've stayed at several resorts in the past and this resort ranks up at the top. It is a smaller resort but that allows the staff to get to know you. If there was anything we needed during our stay, it was quickly addressed (i.e. new coffee pot at 3:00 am...we were struggling with the time change..lol). Our room was always clean and freshened and lovely items left each day. Would definitely recommend staying here and hope to go back soon.
