The Manava is very beautiful and has wonderful service. The location is stunning with mountains rising up behind it. Yet it’s close to restaurants. It’s the kind of resort you picture when thinking of French Polynesia.

Our stay at Linareva was really lovely. Momo welcomed us at check in and explained all the amenities and the rules. Breakfast is offered upon request. Our little bungalow had everything you need for cooking. Best of the best is snorkeling at the end of the dock. The location is perfect if you have a car. We highly recommend Linareva Moorea beach resort.

Here's a draft ready to paste: --- We stayed five nights at Cook's Bay Hotel & Suites in October 2026, and unfortunately we can't recommend it. The room had ants, cockroaches, and even a lizard — not acceptable for a hotel stay. Amenities were limited, and the place felt tired rather than the tropical escape it presents itself as. Worst of all was the staff. They seemed uninterested from the start, with a bad attitude, and when we needed help they were extremely unhelpful. Problems were met with indifference rather than any attempt to put things right. Moorea itself is beautiful, and we had a wonderful time elsewhere on the island — but this hotel let our stay down. We would not stay here again.

"This hotel is good for a night before a flight on your way to another hotel. It is a good price point but location is in a bad part of town which taxi confirmed. I don’t recommend walking to near by grocery store on your own. The room was nice and spacious but shower grout seemed dirty. The rooms ..."
