Mission Moorea was a success

We were a group of experienced travelers and had an amazing week long holiday at this beautiful home. Everything you could possibly need was close to the house. We cooked several dinners and the BBQ and kitchen were great. The home was large with plenty of space to socialize or have a quiet moment to yourself. The AC worked perfectly and kept all the bedrooms nice and cold for sleeping. Great outdoor space to just take in all the beautiful scenery. The outdoor shower was also a highlight. We were all sad to leave this magical home in a spectacular setting.

The best of Cook’s Bay

Incredible huge home on the best location that Cook’s bay has to offer. We were a large group of 9 and had everything we could possible want. The A/C in all the bedrooms worked flawlessly. Jean Marie, the host, was there to greet us upon arrival and couldn’t have been nicer. Fortunately he allowed us a late check out since we had a ferry to catch at 5 pm. We’ve stayed at a couple of other well known villas on Cooks bay in the past but this was by far our favorite. We’ve been to Mo’orea a dozen times so we knew what was available. Don;t hesitate to book this incredible villa.

A beautiful well appointed facility

Our family was very large 12 adults , 4 children & a baby. The house was well appointed and we all had more than adequate rooms/beds for sleeping. The games tables & outdoor gear was outstanding. We would have liked the swimming from property to be better but it was only a short drive to spectacular beaches. Well done to Monique & Aiden - great result

Another magical time on Cooks Bay

We visited this property just eight months ago and were so taken by the property (and Moorea in general) that we came back for a second round within the year! This time we were two families with four children 8-12 plus two grandparents. The house was perfect for our group -- we knew it would be. Incredible views, a great dock and tons of water toys to paddle in the bay, fish and sharks and rays cruising by off the dock, easy access to all of the rest of the island via taxis... couldn't ask for more. For us northerners, the AC in the bedrooms is also critical. Just an awesome place -- thank you for sharing it with us again Monique and Jean!

Had a great time with friends.

House was large enough to house four couples with room to have private time. Checkin was easy with a wonderful recommendation for an inexpensive good restaurant across the street. Loads of things to do pool, ping pong, foos ball, kayaks, paddle boards, fins and masks. Would highly recommended.

Magical Moorea

We had a wonderful time in Moorea at Our Cook Bay House. The house is beautifully situated on Cook’s Bay and the layout of the house, beach area, and dock are perfect. We had breakfast and coffee on the dock every morning with spectacular mountain views. We used the kayaks and paddle boards, finding beautiful fish, rays, and nurse sharks in the bay. The hosts are incredibly gracious. I rate the experience a 10/10!

Great location!

Outside area of house was breathtaking. Many different areas to eat, relax and enjoy the amazing views. Kayaks and standup boards provided but unfortunately only had one kayak paddle 😔 Monique was very responsive and helped us arrange a private chef for our last night which was delicious! Inside was nice but dated and could use a refresh. Could tell furniture was worn and old.

Amazing House

We loved our stay at Cooks Bay House. The house was clean and had everything we needed. The paddle boards and kayaks were so fun and the kids swam right off the front of the property. At dusk we could sit on the dock and watch for rays and sharks. The air conditioning was great and we ran it at night while we slept. This house is perfect for a family and grandparents since there are 2 master bedrooms and lots of beds for kids upstairs. I would recommend getting a car to explore all the beaches on the island however you can walk or bike to a market from the property. Overall everything was great and we will be back!

Best Birthday Celebration Location!

This place was AMAZING!!! Adrian the host welcomed us at the house with leis for the whole group. As soon as you open the door to this property you are in awe. It was beautiful! The rooms were comfortable and clean. Every room upstairs had a view of the water. The view was out of this world. I can't say enough about how great this place was. The air conditioners were great on those really hot days. Again, Adrian was so amazing from giving us rides to the grocery store to sending some of us off at the airport. To even Monique baking me a cake for my birthday. Just incredible people. I would stay here again 100 times and highly recommend this to anyone staying in Moorea.

Great stay

This property is fantastic! The interior is clean, with ample space, the house is equipped with everything you need, the outdoor space is the best part. The private dock alone makes this property worth it. You can see marine life, reef sharks, nurse sharks, sting rays, manta rays and fish. There were multiple sitting options, ranging from full sun to full shade. The water is shallow going out quite a ways beyond the dock before it drops off. Any questions we had were quickly answered and communication was great. There are multiple paddle boards, life jackets, and everything you could need that would add to the stay. The biggest problem is that we didn't want to leave.

A fabulous stay - we didn't want to leave

We had a wonderful time at this amazing Cook's Bay home. The location is just magical. We were 2 families staying together and there was plenty of space for everyone. The location is perfect because you are close to all the activities on the island and most of the restaurants. The house is very well equipped and the pool table, ping pong table, fuse ball table, kayaks and paddle boards were used extensively by all our teenagers. The house hosts were absolutely wonderful and made our stay even more special by introducing us to a local neighbor who took a few of us on a fishing trip and gave us some fresh cooked fish he had caught. The food truck same side of the street has great (and reasonably priced) sandwiches and cakes that we all enjoyed. We have traveled extensively throughout the world and Moorea is one of the prettiest places we've ever seen. The combination of the beauty of the island and the crystal blue water is simply spectacular. We were already planning our next trip even before we left this one!

Amazing stay

Great location, great house, amazing host (Aiden). 10/10. He was like the mayor of Moorea and was super responsive to any outreach. Very nice and always helpful. We stayed for a family vacation and to celebrate my 50th birthday- family of 4. The house had tons of space for us, the layout was great- lots of places to hang out to eat, relax,… Great activities provided- SUPs, boats, ping pong, bikes,…We loved biking to the head if the bay to get delicious food in the morning. The food across the street (Moz) and the food truck next door were epic, highly recommend. For most excursions on the island, you’ll benefit from a car rental. Snorkeling was pretty good in the Bay, although a little murky at times. The beaches seem to have clearer water for that. It was great to eat on the dock and watch the nurse sharks, rays and other fish cruise around. Great stay- and again, Thank you Monique and Aiden!!

Unparalleled Outdoor Living Space

We adored our stay in this house. It is a well-established family home, doesn't have the usual cold/thin/mas produced feel of a rental property. It has polished wood interiors and has been remodeled recently. The bath tubs are super. I can honestly say we were out on the dock 90 percent of the time, watching the mountain views change as the clouds shifted (timelapse photographers' dream), watching the lemon sharks and friendly stingrays pass by (neither are a threat to humans, very gentle beings), and the boats anchor and leave and anchor again. The location is phenomenal, and having your own dock is so rare. Definitely a gem of a house if you are a water person. Water is hot when you have sunny days, we had three solid days of rain but when it cleared, the views were breathtaking. A/C kept the house cool and the bug zapper machine was a nice touch. Absolutely lovely property run by good people. We would stay here again.

Fell in love with Moorea

This home is wonderful, there were 6 of us and we had room to spare. We love how the house is designed with several areas for relaxing: dock, tv room, lanai, outside dining and outside table overlooking the bay. The views are incredible and we also saw rays and harmless sharks in the morning and night. You are on the bay with beach access and our hosts provided paddle boards, Life jackets and snorkeling gear. The hosts were extremely accommodating and they organized to pick up a package we had left in our hotel in Papeete, and we rented a boat for the week as our daughter had worked in Mo’orea and we fell comfortable navigating the ocean and it’s tricky reefs. The house is very well located, walking distance to a small market where we bought fresh bread every day. The hosts left us some wonderful fresh fruits and juices. Everyone had a wonderful time and I suspect you would too, this is French Polynesian hospitality at its best.

Lovely house on Cook's Bay

The house is exactly as pictured. The hosts have clearly put a lot of thought into the accommodation, providing everything you might need. Monique was very quick to try and respond to all questions and communications, including trying to help with a left behind item. In case you are wondering whether this is a real review, here are the additional practical things you might want to know as someone staying there: (1) getting into the gated driveway takes a little bit of practice - - pull forward as far as you can and then back in for the easiest entry and exit, (2) Many have asked about swimming/snorkeling from the house - you can swim and snorkel off the beach in front of the house, though as many have said, there are probably better places on the island. If you head head straight off from the dock to where the drop off occurs (you can see the change in color standing on the dock), there is almost always a pod of very colorful fish. We would SUP and kayak out there to look, but you could easily swim if you wanted to do so

Nothing short of amazing!

What's not to love about this place?! From the warmest of welcomes by Monique and Jim, to their responsiveness to our questions during our stay. From the access to the water right from the back garden, to the paddle boards and kayaks available onsite that allow you to explore the Bay. From sitting on the pontoon spotting Rays and Sharks in the morning and evening, to the stunning views of Cook's Bay throughout the day. We absolutely loved our stay here, and would return in a heart beat. The house is lovely, with everything you need. Our kids loved playing pool, table football and ping-pong. Kitchen is well stocked with all you need, including plenty of tea, coffee, etc. And we even had some lovely surprise chocolatey treats waiting for us in the fridge too! This is obviously a well loved family home, and it was so nice to spend a few days in it. There are a few restaurants nearby (within walking distance) and a decent size supermarket 2 mins drive away. Monique helped us arrange a half day boat tour, and they picked us up from the house pontoon! If we could have stayed longer we would, and we really do hope to return some day. You can't help but fall in love with it, Cook's Bay and Moorea.

Paradise in Moorea

My family and I stayed here for 4 days/3 nights over Spring Break (my spouse and a 13,15,17 yo children). The island of Moorea is breathtaking, but this property let us enjoy it like it was home. The views are incredible and the sounds of the ocean, crickets, drumming at night fell pretty magical. Well-appointed, with about anything you could need functionally (kitchen/laundry/etc) and also as a vacation home (books/games/flippers/outdoor shower/hose). Comfortable. Safe. Open-air spaces that let you always enjoy the outside, even when you might need a break from the sun. We spent early mornings and evenings on the dock watching the fish swim by, including a stingray and some harmless sharks. We swam, kayaked, and snorkeled right off the beach in the reef area lining the property. Lazed around and read books on the beach. About 20 min from the ferry, this home was easy to get to, with a few eating spots within walking distance, grocery store about 5 min away and 2 beautiful white sand beaches 15 in either direction. We cooked dinner a couple nights - kitchen is well appointed and the knives were sharp! The hosts were amazing - so generous with their time, flexible with the check-in/out process and so welcoming with treats and refreshments from the island. This was one of the best VRBO experiences we have had and would love to come back with some friends!!! Highly recommend!!
