Air-conditioned bungalow by the sea in Moorea

If this is available, don't over think it and just go ahead and book it! All of the reviews that you can find about this place are spot on. I would say that while the pictures look good and are accurate. IMHO, the place looks even nicer than the pictures. The only negative thing I can say is that I didn't book this long enough. We really didn't want to leave. The property was clean and well maintained. Our host was very kind and accommodating.A bit more about the property. You are in walking distance to Temae Beach. Nothing is terribly far on the island with a short drive (5-15min). Note that the road to the beach & house is not paved and has a lot of potholes to navigate around. You may question if you are going the right way, but don't worry, you are. We were fine in our tiny econo car. As the listing shows it is by the airport, don't worry, you will not hear a thing. There are very few flights and the ones that do come, you don't hear them.We already decided that if we make it back to the beautiful island, that will stay here again, but for a much longer stay. It is quiet and serene with wonderful hosts.

Beautiful and Private We had only a short 3 night/4 day stay, but it was more than we imagined it could be. The bungalow was beautifully decorated and had all the conveniences we needed inside. Outside, the very private sandy yard is steps away from the crashing waves of the ocean, just through a gate. Beach shoes are necessary for walking in both directions, as the shore is rocky here. A short walk in one direction took us to some sandy bottom "baths" and a longer walk in the other direction took us to the white sand beach of the Sofitel resort. Along the way we discovered a public beach that locals access through the soccer fields that we passed on the drive to our place. That drive was the only reason I rated the location and neighborhood a 4 instead of 5. Once off the main road, the access road was extremely bumpy and potholed, but as long as went very slowly, we were fine. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend this property to anyone with a car who wanted to stay away from the crowds while remaining close to restaurants and sightseeing activities.

Great stay, great location, great property! What a wonderful location and property. The listing and images are 100% accurate. The beach is literally a few feet away from the porch from where you can enjoy your morning coffee and look at the sunrise. The property has a very well equipped kitchen, bathroom and washing machine is a real bonus. Host, Hinarii, provided timely responses to any questions asked and made sure we were comfortable upon check-in. Thanks Hinarii! We couldn't recommend this property more.
