Manava Beach Resort & Spa Moorea

We stayed in a private pool suite for the first part of our honeymoon, before heading to Bora Bora, and loved it. The place felt comfortable and beachy, the staff were friendly and accommodating, and the services were wonderful. We also had an incredible couples massage at the spa with Beline and Raiala, with Belle welcoming us and helping make the visit happen.

The over-water bungalow was spacious and had easy access to the main building. We spent five nights at Manava Beach Resort & Spa and really enjoyed it. The staff were friendly and helpful throughout, starting right when we arrived. We’d arranged some activities through the hotel ahead of time, and the concierge was easy to work with when we checked in. There’s a good variety of food, and the Wednesday show was a highlight. It was nice to have shops and restaurants nearby for a walk and a look around at local spots. I’d definitely recommend Manava!

The rains came every afternoon, and it was perfect. We stayed in a beachfront bungalow at this quiet, pleasant resort, where the service was wonderful from the moment we arrived. The one downside was being near the back-of-house area, so we could hear staff from 6 a.m. Still, we were up early to enjoy the beach anyway.

The food was terrific, and I had the best fish I’ve ever eaten at the hotel restaurant. Julien deserves special thanks for making sure my stay, as always, went perfectly. Really, the whole team was so nice, from reception and the bar to the activity deck, restaurant, luggage staff, and gardeners. The arrangements through Tahiti Voyages were flawless, too. You feel welcome the minute you arrive at Manava Moorea. The staff make a great first impression, and that warmth carries through the stay. Service was attentive and professional, always with a smile, and the whole place had such a relaxing vibe. An amazing experience all around!
