Lovely stay in a true "South Pacific" heaven!
Loved this home and all the outdoor spaces. Kayaking in Cook Bay was great and appreciated the functioning washing machine!! Close-by shopping, even some just across the street. Parking a little hairy as the sharp turn off the road - but mastered it well before our departure. I would highly recommend this home!! Thank you!!

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

Nothing Short of Amazing
All the previous positive reviews are completely accurate. This was an amazing five nights stay right on Cook’s Bay in a beautiful home that has everything that you need. We did make several trips to the store to buy fresh fish and eggs and other staples, but for the most part, the house was completely stocked with spices, purified water, and all the cooking utensils you would need. My favorite part of the house is the dock. You can literally sit there and see lemon sharks and stingrays swimming by like clockwork. I don’t think there was a point in time where we didn’t see something swimming by within 10 to 15 minutes of each other. Monique, the host, was super receptive to all messages and inquiries during our stay. She even arranged for us to have late checkout since we had a midnight flight, and wanted to spend our last day at the house. Aidan, Who helped us check in had arranged for a rental car for me. It was the rental car that I didn’t know I needed but I absolutely did. The rate was super cheap. I believe I only paid 380 American dollars for five days. The car allowed us the freedom to travel all over the island to our excursions and also just to go to the beach or to the restaurants which are numerous in the area. We were just a family of four but the house actually sleeps 16 and although we didn’t have that many people, I would say that 16 would be totally comfortable. If we ever come back to Moorea again I would certainly love to stay at this house on Cook‘s Bay.

Lovely location, comfortable house, kind people!
Our family of 9 (2 grandparents, 2 adult couples, and 3 children ages 10,8, and 6) thoroughly enjoyed our stay! The dock makes the house - a fabulous place to lounge with gorgeous views. The boats and small beach were fun as were the 3 outdoor areas to eat. Special aspects include: well functioning air conditioning, comfortable beds, ample hot water, and a great laundry room (enclosed but open air) with 2 washers and 2 dryers, a large sink, lots of space to hang wet gear. We were thrilled to take totally clean, dry swimming and snorkeling gear home in our suitcases. The kitchen was adequate to cook a meal and had ample plates, silverware, glasses, etc. Great, secure off street parking and overall a very secure location. The house is older and shows some wear, but not in an uncomfortable way. I would describe it as homey and inviting. Our hosts were lovely, meeting us on time, allowing us to stay 4 hours longer, providing many wonderful pineapples, much advise, and even a special dessert! Merci beaucoup! Moorea was lovely - good restaurants, beaches, hiking. We especially enjoyed Allo Pizza, Rudy's, Coco Beach, and snorkeling with whales.

One Moment In Time
Morrea is the most beautiful island we have ever seen and Cooks Bay captured the breathtaking beauty from every direction. The exterior living space of this home is what drew our interest in renting, and it was more than we dreamed of. You can’t help but to feel happy when you see these views, private beach and Morning coffee on the dock. All of your water toys are right here to enjoy. As planned, when we were at the home, we were outside. (Neither of us ever saw a mosquito.) We only used the main level but were surprised to see the three bedrooms upstairs with ample space for so many more to enjoy. Thank you for your generous hospitality and attention to detail for our needs.

We had the best family vacation here. The house is huge and well-appointed. The views from the house out to, and around, Cook's Bay are mind blowing. The location couldn't be better. We cycled to the grocery store, walked across the street for delicious and inexpensive food. We lived every bit of it. Monique was attentive and responsive. I doubt you can do better on moorea.

Wonderful Place and Location
You won't be disappointed. The location on Cook's Bay is great and near restaurants and stores, unlike other spots on the island. The dock is a treat and watching the sharks and rays swimming by at night is something to see. Being deep in the bay has an advantage for watersports, in that, the wind is worse as you head out of the bay. AC in each of the bedrooms is a bonus. Two awesome beaches less than 10 minutes away by car or scooter. And the supermarket is about 4 minutes away. Perfect place to stay. Be sure to rent a car at the ferry and enjoy the island!

incredible stay in Cook's Bay
Gosh, where do I start? Our stay at this property was part of a vacation that can only be described as a bottom-of-the-ninth-inning, bases loaded grand slam. Our hosts were fantastic and helpful, the house was so charming and fun for kids and parents alike, tons of water activities right out in front of the 'dock-quarium' with rays and sharks and turtles straight off the house (although obviously it's 2/3 of the way into Cooks Bay, so the visibility is better elsewhere.... but is still super super fun to jump in and snorkel right there at the house). The outrigger canoe and stand up paddle boards were awesome additions that we used all the time, not to mention the billiards, ping pong, and foosball tables! The house was well-appointed and charming, and we loved the history of the owners they were gracious enough to share in the welcome book. The outdoor showers were SO nice on hot days, and it was lovely to have a little air conditioning in the bedrooms at night for folks like us who are used to cooler climates. We are already planning our return to Moorea and will definitely be coming back to this house! Thank you Monique and Jean!

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!!

Incredible stay in paradise
This house was hands down the best location on the island. We are so glad we stayed here. It had everything we could need and lots of things we didn’t know we wanted. Beautiful comfortable home in a very convenient location. Hosts were helpful and very responsive. They greeted us with fresh leis. The floral arrangements in all the rooms were spectacular. Island life includes mosquitos but they provided bug spray. Our favorite hang out place was the dock. Every morning going out on the dock and watching the sun rise and at night watch it set was a highlight, then after dark watching the sky without light pollution was amazing. We saw shooting stars every night. I could go on and on, but the house exceeded our expectations! Just across the street, there was a yummy smoothy shop, a really cute gift shop which had the best items with the sweetest owner and cute shops. And there is hidden restaurant behind the smoothy shop that was delicious! The grocery store was very close. All in all, the best vacation every!

Outstanding place for a family vacation. The location is perfect. Our granddaughter loved all the sea life right off the dock, and morning coffee view off the deck was a favorite for my wife snd I. The house is well equipped. The kitchen is set up with everything you would need. There is plenty of sports equipment for use during you stay. Our kids, old and young enjoyed the gaming tables, especially the ping pong table. It stayed busy in the evenings. Although it is not absolutely necessary, a car is nice to have on Moorea, but groceries and takeout are close by and accessible with the three wheel bikes. The best part of the stay was the great service by the hosts Monique and Aiden. They saved us a number of times. Thank You! You won’t go wrong staying at their fantastic home.

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.

Great Stay
Amazing place to stay. We were a family of 5 and there was plenty of space to sleep. Firstly, Aiden and Monique were so helpful in checking us in and assisting us with local knowledge and contacts and making sure we were comfortable during our stay (thanks so much guys). The house has the ambience of a family home, not a hotel, which we found really nice. We spent a lot of time sitting on the jetty watching the fish, sharks and rays go by. The bay is very safe for swimming, our kids were snorkelling and kayaking every day. Also great just to watch the goings on of the locals as they head off to collect tourists for the lagoon tours. Logistically, there are key amenities close by. There is a small supermarket 200m to the north stocked with fresh baguettes each morning and a small range of groceries and alcohol, 200m to the south is a fuel station which stocks fresh baguettes and pastries and snack food. 1.2 km away, is a larger supermarket with a good range of all you need. The house has supplied bikes (and two tricycles) which are great for the shopping ride. Directly across the road is a fantastic restaurant (Kaylakea Moz Food). The food is really great and does takeaways. Allo Pizza is a 5 minute ride to the north where you can also bring pizza back to the house, or dine in. 1200m to the north is also the new Cooks Bay Hotel for happy hour and a meal. Only negatives are traffic noise in the morning. Thanks for a great 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!!

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!

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.
