Moorea Surf Inn

I came to this place because Fare Maheata which In paid until 31st made me feel uncomfortable…a very beautiful place… not tidy with a rude manager Si I left early and it was non refundable Vaianae has a very comfortable room and a great kitchen… it is very well kept and it is a great beautiful area with mountains and garden… not a good besch. It is great for those with a car and who like to cook and a quiet relaxing environment The owner snd Mother are very helpful. There is a nice supermarket near and they have bikes for the guest. I enjoyed this place. Í detested Fare Maheata… noisy no kitchen where to cook. Built by great people but now the management is bad.they knew I was upset and they cancelled me so there woud be no feedback… Great Vaiaenae Lodge Terrible Fare Maheata

Positives: - spacious bedrooms - spacious kitchen for guest use - parking onsite - deck to sit out on Negatives: - very difficult to find. Need signage out front - photos of room during booking process a bit deceptive. Shows bathroom, leading one to think you room has a private one. It doesnt. - host not responsive pre-stay via *******; must WA him - host not engaging - host was to have lent me a bike so I could cycle back the 16km rom returning my rental car. I told him what time I needed to leave by, and asked if he could help load the bike into the car. Well he was a ''no-show' and instead was out shopping. Not reliable. At least he apologized. - there is no swimming beach at this location - nowhere comfortable outside to sit and enjoy the view. Only a picnic bench, which gets wets when raining - no amenities in area - description states kayaks and bikes available for loan, though he seemed a bit reluctant. Summary: okay stay, nice facilities. But I felt more like an inconvenience being there more thana valued guest. I think this really is more suited to surfers, not solo female travellers who may need a bit of guidance.

Amazing place, amazing host, great location, can’t say enough great things about this place. I will definitely be back! Thanks for letting us stay on your families beautiful property and for everything else Tama! -Gabe

My fourth time here and I’ll be back. What’s there not to like. The price, the cleanliness, the knowledge, the location. The best poisson cru place is across the street. It’s quiet. There are SUPs to cruise around. There are bikes. This last time we didn’t surf but Tama took us out on his boat for a private cruise. It was like nothing you can get from a commercial big hotel.
