"Breakfast was good, but very expensive. Staff were helpful and friendly. Very quiet place with a beautiful view/sunset and excellent beach/lagoon. If you are looking for a place to relax, this is it."
"Jean and his family were very hospitable. The food was DELISH. We snorkeled and swam from the private beach. We enjoyed a private cabin with its own bathroom. I would return there for the price and culture. Most of the experience is quaint and family friendly. I enjoyed the porch the best. If you want room service and amenities it is more like staying with family. This was a great stay on a budget and we felt treated with value. Jean was knowledgeable to share snorkeling sites, hikes, dive areas, and more local info. The drinks were good, the food authentic. It wasn't over populated either like the large hotels."
"A great value for money to stay if you are on a budget. The bathrooms and kitchen are shared but extremely clean and adequately equiped. Although Vaianae Lodge is on the quiet side of the island, the owber picked us up from the ferry and driven back to the lodge. We were picked up for and dropped off our tours.Great foods fans and supermarket nearby.
Highly recommended"
"Amazing resort and the renovated rooms are beautiful! Breakfast was great. Staff are very friendly and the beach is stunning. If you can, splurge on the overwater bungalows. Truly a bucket list experience and stay. 10/10 honeymoon experience for my fiance and I, and the hotel made it extra special."
"Our stay at Linareva Resort was simply magical and one of the highlights of our trip to French Polynesia.
The location is breathtaking: the crystal-clear lagoon right in front of the resort feels like a natural aquarium, with colorful tropical fish swimming around the private pier. We spent so much time there just enjoying the incredible scenery.
The tropical garden is beautifully maintained, full of lush palm trees and exotic plants, creating a peaceful paradise. The sea is absolutely spectacular, with unforgettable colors that almost don't seem real.
The staff were incredibly welcoming and always happy to help. They gave us excellent advice and helped us organize tours around Moorea, making it easy to discover the island.
One of our favorite moments was having dinner in the outdoor dining area under a sky full of stars. The atmosphere was so peaceful and romantic—it truly felt magical.
If you're looking for an authentic Polynesian paradise, Linareva Resort is the perfect choice. We would return without hesitation!"
