Manava Beach Resort and Spa Moorea

perfect and friendly staff. Very beautiful and relacing. The room were perfect and clean over the water. Highly recommend

It has an excellent location with some shops, bars and local restaurants nearby. The staff were all very friendly and professional. The concierge was particularly helpful when the tour I had booked was cancelled with only half a day's notice. She managed to get a similar tour for the same time for the same price! The new tour was excellent!

The resort was pretty cool and the overwater bungalow was AMAZING!!! We got a “premium” bungalow and it felt very private. Beautiful views and fish, sharks, and turtles underneath us all week. The pool was very beautiful. The resort is very small and pretty quiet-feeling which was perfect for us on our honeymoon. The restaurants in the resort fall very short of expectations but there were a lot of good restaurants within walking distance. The staff weren’t super friendly and some were downright rude and I think that is because we are American. One staff member for the welcome even said something about “you Americans…” and it put a bad taste in my mouth!

Booked a bungalow over water. Beautiful, clean, spacious. Our little cove is not as blue and clear as one would want - but still gorgeous and exotic. The restaurants are nice. Food is tasty, servers are professional. Booked a spa treatment for wife and I. Fabulous! Very relaxing, made me feel better, relaxed, and happy. It was "light to medium pressure" which was a first for me. Why the hell do we think masseuse should beat the crap out of us? In any case, while the hotel accommodations and the restaurants are plenty of reasons to come here, the spa clinches the deal and makes it all "11!"

At Manea Spa, Beline and Raiata were sensational. The full body massage and facial are the best we will ever experience in our lives. I felt as if the monoi had been engraved into my skin. My mind relaxed and drifted into a dreaming state. Even before our sessions, they were very attentive, respectful and took a lot of care into listening to what alternatives we needed. It was a mind and body levitating experience, and they will absolutely see me again. We felt so sacred and precious that we wished we could remain untouched for the rest of the trip ahaha! We didn't want to ruin all the work they had done. Now, for the hotel, I loved having separate bathrooms in our very generous and spacious rooms. Impressively cleaner by the day, if that's even possible. The mini fridge could definitely be improved. I'm grateful for the delicious birthday cake. At breakfast, the food was fresh and good. I loved that they had refillable cold coconut water and, two! coffee machines, with alternative milks at the side, Incredible! Wednesday's buffet was lovely. The Ori dancers were friendly and talented. The location of the hotel was convenient for ATMs and short walks. I liked that we could order a shuttle to certain nearby restaurants after hours. The resort's views and plants are breathtaking. I felt so inspired every time I opened a door or walked around. One morning, I spent time picking up the fallen flowers after the storm. I was always mesmerised by the gorgeous valley in the background and access to the endless ocean. Quiet enough to keep you relaxed, but island music is always playing to keep me happy. However, I'm disappointed in the organisation and communication between the hotel departments during my short stay. Unfortunately, I had to go back and forth, repeat myself and triple check on situations which often left me feeling confused or disappointed. Danie at the activities desk handled my refunds quickly, and I'm impressed and appreciative of her efforts. Tini at the front desk, who welcomed us for our hotel tour at check-in, was always polite and sweet. All the staff tried their best to be friendly. I wish there were enough time to give this hotel another chance.
