Great Location

This is a great location and the host was very helpful. Clement met us at the airport and we followed him to the house. The area where most of the tours to see sharks and rays is a very close kayak trip away. Some of the local restaurants are excellent. All in all a good stay and a good value.

Typical French Polynesian Home

This house is a typical French Polynesian house that has A/C in the bedrooms. One of the bedrooms is outside of the main area with no bathroom, but has a shower in it.Both bathrooms are located in the main living area, which is workable but inconvenient for the second bedroom guests.Beautiful location with a view of the lagoon and ocean from the bedrooms, living area, and backyard/decks.The 4 kayaks were an added pleasure. The water is so clear it was fun to explore.The kitchen had adequate cooking utensils, pans and dishes. There were two brooms which came in handy sweeping the floors everyday.The windows need some maintenance but were able to open and close with a little difficulty. They installed security lights that are on 24/7. No way to turn off and one reflected brightly in to the bedroom outside of the main living area. The toilet seats need to be replaced. One side was not attached and made it interesting when it was time to wipe. No toilet paper holders.The land crabs are all over property and under the house. Noisy at night. But that is common all over French Polynesia.We had no security issues during our stay. We followed the recommendations of the host.I would definitely rent this place again. Yes it needed some maintenance, but over all a nice place. Can’t beat the location and access to the water. You won’t regret staying here.

Beachfront Moorea

The location is the reason to book this property. Located beachfront on the north shore you have a great ocean view from a fantastic backyard with combination of grass and trees to offer shading, plenty of lounge seating for sun or shade. Those who want to relax and enjoy will love it (my wife and sister). Those who are outdoorsy will love it (me and my brother in law) as there are four kayaks available to cruise the waters with sharks and stingrays nearby and with a little more effort a great snorkeling spot on the west side of the coco beach island. The home is in good condition though is dated. The second bedroom is only accessed from the outside which was fine for us (we were all adults) but may not be great with families with small kids. We enjoyed our stay.

Perfect place to stay in Moorea!

We received a very warm welcome by the owner and shown around the property when we got there. This place is amazing! It's right on the water which was perfect for snorkeling and kayaking (which was provided). The kitchen has everything you need to make some meals at home (which is a huge money saver). There was hardly a need to go out to eat because the view there was so amazing. The location is a quick drive to all of the best spots on the island. I would HIGHLY recommend staying here!!!

Beyond Amazing

We thoroughly enjoyed our 2 week stay here! Jumping in the kayaks in the early morning, or to watch a sunset was awesome! We went out at least once a day the entire trip. The islands were so fun to snorkel around. Anais made everything simple and pleasant. We loved sitting out to watch the stars most nights. The location of the property was everything! 6 stars!!

Would definitely stay here again!

We loved this home. Property Manager Clement was very attentive answering questions prior booking and during our stay even provided some wonderful fresh Sword fish. We loved the location; close enough to walk to restaurants/groceries, but at the same time very quiet/relaxing and we felt like we had the incredible ocean to ourselves. The shallow Lagoon was literally at our doorstep and a constant change of beautiful colours and full of marine life. We used the Kayaks daily and loved paddling to the Motu or to a Restaurant for lunch. Location was great for our Dive Co. to pick us up every morning. The home is older, but kept in very good condition, very spacious, and most important for us-very clean.

Fantastic location!

Located in a quiet neighborhood, my wife and I and another couple found this location to be perfect for us. The big backyard with lounge chairs and the provided kayaks gave us the flexibility of relaxing or exploring the waters. The hotel west of the house has a great beach laying out on the sand. The beds were comfortable and the hot water in the showers was nice. The kitchen has plenty of plates and other necessary things to cook in the home. Clement met us at the airport and was very friendly and helpful. He was always an email away if we needed to get in touch! Overall, we were quiet pleased and would love to come back!

Dream House on a beautilful beach

First things first! We have to thank always helpful Clement for an amazing holiday. Your hospitality and kind predisposition will always be appreciated. His house is amazing. Spacious, well maintained, very beautiful and fully equipped, located on a nice neighbourhood and just a few steps from the small grocery shop. The beach is just awesome. The best is to go on Clement´s Kayaks and appreciate the astonishing colour of Polynesian waters. Plus, you have sharks and rays tour for free right in front of your house every day you like! Highly recommendable place for your dream holidays.

Wonderful house with dream views!

We had the best trip! The house is beautiful and the location was perfect for us!! We LOVED being right on the water and couldn't believe how gorgeous the views were! The kayaks that came with the house were great and we were definitely out paddling every day. I was there with my mom and the place was very large for two people - it felt luxurious! It's a simple house inside, but for us it was ideal because we don't need a fancy house. The view and water access were amazing and we keep dreaming about going back! We would absolutely stay in this house again:) Clement is such a kind person! He helped us with everything we needed and we loved that he picked us up from the ferry. He is so thoughtful! He was truly the ideal host!!

Wonderful

First off, Anais is amazing. We could not have asked for a better host. Family vacation-rented the home for the view, access to the water; spent most of the time on the back porch/deck, in the water, kayaking or exploring the island. Spent little time in the house except for sleeping. The home is lovely, kitchen is open, new coffee pot, new blender, fridge and ice maker work - bathrooms are fine, 2nd toilet is a benefit. Both bedrooms are off the back porch/deck. No problem having one bedroom without a bathroom adjacent. It’s a lovely neighborhood, friendly. Our favorite restaurant was 2 doors down - and we walked to the market each morning for fresh bread. Crabs in the front yard, occasional cockroach - it’s the islands! Exceeded all of our expectations - we try to focus on the most important things.

A good stay!

We stayed here for 4 nights at the end of an island-hopping trip to French Polynesia. Clement was a very helpful host, meeting us at the ferry, stopping for a quick grocery pick-up, showing us around the house and informing us about the island. He even arranged a dinner reservation for us at a nearby restaurant. The house is comfortable. The main bedroom has an air conditioner which we ran just at night. The island breezes take care of the rest of the house. You will need water shoes to enjoy the swimming out front but that is true all over the islands. The property is private and wonderful for relaxing but you have to watch where you step; there are crab holes all over the lawn. If you're lucky you'll see one of these shy critters poking it's nose out of a hole but mostly you just see the sand they kick up as they're digging their hole. The little store 10 minutes walk away stocks most essentials so that's handy and the kitchen has what you need to prepare simple meals. A rental car for at least one day makes it possible to see the whole island which is really beautiful.

Excellent host and wonderful property!

We were met by Clement at the ferry dock and he drove us to the area of the villa. He gave us a brief tour of what was nearby and some restaurants and shops. We stopped at the small grocery store to get a few things before heading to the villa. What a beautiful place and property! Pretty much as described, only better! We were very comfortable here. We spent a lot of hours on the porch just enjoying the fantastic view of the lagoon. Usually with the company of the villa mascot....an old white cat....he was the most affectionate cat I've ever seen! He seemed to just love hanging around us. He would curl up and sleep as long as we were out there. We made great use of the kayaks - went and swam with the sharks and rays one day and another day we paddled over to Hotel Tipaniers and pulled the kayaks up on the beach and had lunch at the restaurant. We also used the kitchen to cook our own meals - mostly breakfast and lunches. All in all, we were so very happy we booked this place and would be more than happy to stay here again if we are every fortunate enough to return to French Polynesia. Clement gets 5 stars as well! Prior to our visit, he always responded to any questions promptly and we knew he was available and reliable if we had needed him for anything during our stay. Lori and John

Great place in paradise

We were fortunate to stay are this home for 5 days in March. The home is nice and you can't beat the location. A few downsides: 1) the second bedroom is only accessible via the outdoor porch (there are locks in all sliding doors but this didn't work well for us with a young child); 2) while the bedrooms are air conditioned, the remainder of the house, when the sea breeze is coming in, it's pleasant but during the warm rainy season, it got to be hot; 3) the directions were not good, making it difficult to find (homes in Mo'orea do not have addresses)- thankfully, Anais was great and she drove to us to help us find our way. But all of that said, this place was amazing! The yard is nice and we lounged in the shade when not in the ocean. The ocean in front of the place has a very nice sandy bottom (with plenty of sea cucumbers) and thanks to the offshore reef, it was always calm. Tons of fish everywhere. There is a decent current but it made swimming fun. It wasn't too much for our 10 year old. We used kayaks provided to padel out and see lots of rays and sharks. It's an easy paddle to where commercial boats take guests. The mosquitos weren't bad but you definitely will find them in the house, without screens. There is a well stocked store within easy waking distance (they even have vegan food - tofu, chickun patties, etc) making it easy to just stay at this gem and enjoy the island life. I will definitely return to the same house on our next trip.

Follow Safety Protocols

Let me start by stating the owner was awesome, responsive and incredibly helpful . This property is amazing. Please follow the safety protocols that the owners explain during the walk thru and also include in the house manual. During our stay we were burglarized on our second night while we were sleeping between 11 PM to 2 AM. I woke up to use the bathroom and noticed that the sliding door was left open and that my purse and backpack were left on the deck The thieves took $2,500 US dollars and other personal items. What is really disturbing is our son was asleep on the sofa bed which is a few feet from where I had left my purse and my husband's backpack. Also, very creepy is that they put a chair under the window so they could look inside the house. The police and owner were notified and immediately came to the house. We also filed a disposition at the police station. So, the lesson we learned is we made a mistake by NOT locking the sliding door. Although we were disheartened by this loss we did not allow this to ruin our vacation. The location of the house is breathtaking and we enjoyed watching the beautiful sunrises, sunsets and natural wildlife.

Tihura Treasure

This place was perfect for my ‘ohana and I to relax and explore! There are putas in the yard from beach crabs so you just have to be careful, however we enjoyed catching a few at night with the kids! Also, there is a cute neighborhood cat who think she owns the house lol. We did our best to keep her out but we had a big family and it’s hot in the living room/kitchen area (no AC in that area) we had to keep the doors and windows open for breeze and the cat kept running in and out. We had to keep chasing it out which was not fun and not the host’s problem. We ended up closing the glass sliding doors but it was hot. There are a couple of fans but still too hot for closed doors if we are trying to keep the cat out. Just a heads up, there is no dryer. We swam a lot and it happened to be raining the 2 days we stayed so we tried to air dry our clothes on the back porch. This was not a problem for us, but it would be nice to have a dryer for rainy days. We made sure to lock up everything if we left the house and used the safe for valuables. The most important thing is that we were able to create memories and have a beautiful, clean place to stay where we could bring my elderly father and our kids to enjoy this first and last trip together of his ku’u fānau (birthplace). I will forever cherish this one of a kind, rustic, Tiahura hale where I felt peace and at home. My family really enjoyed themselves and we were all comfortable. I would definitely return again.

Great location but some issues

Amazing location right on the water, and the kayaks were great we used them every day. House is cute, but definitely a bit dated, and some mold behind the sink in the main bathroom which was probably causing the slightly moldy/humid smell in the bathroom and main bedroom. The fridge in the kitchen was broken so they put one in the living room which was a bit inconvenient for cooking. One thing that is not clear from the listing but a big deal for families with younger children is that the second bedroom only has a door to the exterior and does not have a toilet in the bathroom. We ended up having to split up so that my husband and I slept with a child each because we were not comfortable locking them in a bedroom or leaving it unlocked which we were warned we shouldn't do because of break ins. Also one of the sliding doors to the yard did not work (stayed locked), and the keys to lock them did not work from the exterior which meant we had to go through the front door every time we left with the kayaks which was a little inconvenient. The manager was very communicative and friendly and tried to fix any issues but we were a bit surprised when they charged us full price for replacing a paddle that my son lost instead of contributing some portion for the inconveniences listed above that we could not have known from the listing.
