Family hotels and homes in Maharepa

Absolutely everything, perfect stay. The lodge is absolutely beautiful - 10/10. We stayed at the Hilton and Sofitel while on the island but this lodge scored the highest for us on great value and friendly stay. Things we liked - • comfy bed • great, large balcony with nice chairs • well equipped, clean kitchen and bathroom • extremely clean • FREE pick up and drop off from port - which is very expensive in French Polynesia • most friendly, kind and helpful owners • idyllic garden • lovely owners with help you organise tours, trips and things to do on the island • great location on the island - minutes walk from great restaurants, fantastic bakery, bank, supermarket, pharmacy and beach cafes • could easily stay here days / weeks!

Quiet good communication with Kevin

The overwater bungalows are breathtakingly beautiful. The resort offers free snorkel gear, paddleboards, and other things I didn't use - which are awesome to have access to and easy to take advantage of. There are some good spots to eat and a grocery store close by. The check in process was smooth and they did a lot to welcome me. Overall though I would absolutely recommend staying here and I'm really glad I went for the overwater bungalow because it was uniquely breathtaking. It was clean, had AC, and all the nice amenities I'd expect at a high quality resort.

Beautiful resort. Very helpful staff excellent snorkelling on site

Location was great. Service is quite slow.

Location was great, house was kept very clean for a bed and breakfast. The host was very knowledgeable and happy to give advice on what to do on the island and he was kind enough to pick us up from the ferry

Amazing on all aspects. Super kind host, always available to help us. Super private and quiet. Amazing AC, bed and super clean living quarters. The grocery store down the road (3 min walk) is amazing and very well stocked. I can't recommend this place enough!

Wonderful place with 2 separate bedrooms on either side of the main house with a private entrance for each! Nice pool and deck with lounge chairs and eating area right on the water. The shared kitchen who you share with the other guests works great to cook your own meals and has some condiments to use which was nice. In the mornings we always had a yummy breakfast surprise! Outside lounge area is also great. Room was very nice and clean. We really enjoyed using the kayaks daily especially in the morning and afternoon. Paola the mom of Vairea (who owns the place) was wonderful and we were so glad to have met her. She was so kind and helpful. We absolutely would recommend staying there and hope to stay there again. Having a rental car or scooter would be nice but you can walk to a small store nearby. If you do rent a car they will deliver it to you.

Wow! Maison Orange exceeded all my expectations. It was spacious, clean, I could use the washing machine, there is a big kitchen to use, the room has a great size,… huge terrace - the location is perfect - very close to beach by the hotel Tipaniers where you can rent a kayak, go scuba diving, take excursions,… If I come back (which I am already planning to) - I will definitely stay here again!

The host was very helpful and accommodating. We needed to book at rental car at the last minute and the host was able to book us a car the day before we arrived. Breakfast was optional, we weren't sure if we going to do breakfast or not. We had a long day before we arrived, so decided to keep things simple and go with the breakfast which the host offered. It was your usual European breakfast - various breads and pastries, fresh fruit (seasonal), choice of cheese (cheese plate), homemade jams. You can also ask for scrambled eggs, not sure if they're an added cost or not? There's a small communal fridge so you can put groceries in there. So if you wanted to save some money, you have the option of getting groceries and making your own breakfast. Same thing applies with lunch and dinner. You have access to the kitchen, so you can always make your own lunch and dinner. We had the larger room since that's what was available; it's called the Superior Family Room. Very spacious. Very clean. There was A/C which was very welcomed in that heat! Sleeps 2 adults and 2 kids, or you could do 3 adults but the 2 smaller beds might be a bit small... One of the nice things of staying at a Pension in French Polynesia is that you get to meet the local people, as well as get to know other guests who are staying there. The hosts were at breakfast every morning, and there was always a lively conversation with everyone at the table. So it all depends what you're looking for in Mo'orea, if you're looking for something quiet, where you can 'hide' from the world, then maybe a resort is a better fit? But if you're looking for more of an immersive experience and meeting people, then I would consider staying at a Pension. Also have to talk about their 2 dogs, Rex and Gnocchi! They're a bit goofy, very social and friendly. They mostly hung out by themselves, in the common area and grounds, but did enjoy some scratches behind the ears ;)
