Manava Beach Resort and Spa Moorea

Overall, this is a very nice resort. The public spaces are nice, service is good overall, and the atmosphere is pleasant. The overwater bungalows are fun, and it's great to have access to the water with decent snorkeling. They are fairly well-maintained, but definitely aren't new. Try to get one away from the beach are if you want it quieter. Some nice yoga classes offered. Concierge was helpful. Had a nice massage although the spa space is very minimal with no steam or plunge. Continental breakfast is pretty typical, and other meals are good. I think the bar restaurant is better than the main one. Nice place to stay overall, the price of the overwater bungalows is very high, but they are the best rooms so you'll pay a premium.

Highly recommend this Moorea resort. It has amazing snorkeling in a coral garden at the beach next to the hotel, kayaks and paddle boards, a huge pool, a tasty buffet breakfast, and excellent service at the concierge and reception desk. We also really liked our spacious room in the garden area which had a small private pool.

It is a good stay with just enough service to pass your nights not a wow experience , food was good, no espresso machines one bottle of water throughout the stay you need to fill your own

Lovely Resort. Good spot on the island. Well maintained, and the staff is very friendly, helpful at every turn. Nice little French bistro, Rudy's, just up street a bit. Owner & staff were helpful. Came to our hotel to pick us up, so we wouldn't have to walk to/from the restaurant in a light rain. Food was terrific. We went back for a second night. Terrific large buffet breakfast from the hotel each morning... Sat outside to enjoy it in the splendor of a Moorea morning. Booked a very nice snorkel trip with the transportation company(Alberts) that brought us to the hotel from the ferry dock. Picked us up at a dock right next to the resort, nice boat ride through the Lagoon, to a good snorkieling spot(lots of tropical fish, rays, reef sharks, etc) and then a "Local" barbeque lunch on a small private island with a beautiful white sand beach. Our granddaughter loved it. Hotel also had surprisingly good pizza available in the afternoon, from the little restaurant/bar by the pool.

Outstanding view and location. The personal was helpful, professional and friendly. We enjoy the use of te Private pool at our bungalow. Watching the fish at the Pier was incredible
