Rather moribund, understaffed and not as described. We had three major issues at Kaveka which tainted our time on Moorea. We had chosen it specifically because it is described as having “a private beach” and our chosen bungalow was “on the lagoon”. This is at best misleading and at worst a deliberate distortion. We found that only one or two of the bungalows have a beach with lagoon access. Our bungalow, and others, have a low sea wall with a patch of sand on the land side of the wall for our loungers. The sand also served as a main walkway for other guests so it is not private space. The hotel description mentions access to “beach umbrellas”. Our “beach” - the sandy area in front of the bungalow but behind the sea wall - received intense afternoon sunshine that mandated at least partial shade. But the staff told us that they do not provide beach umbrellas. The hotel description on Expedia is therefore wrong and needs to be updated. The hotel’s guest wi-fi was highly unreliable and intermittent. We complained twice over two days and each time we were told to wait while it was “reset”. I wasn’t going to waste more vacation time complaining more since I had reasonable cellular coverage. You might not have! Do yourself a favor, and avoid the temptation for what seems a good deal and instead pay extra for a better place - the Cook’s Bay Resort next door is modern and lovely - and perhaps just stay fewer days. Your vacation time will be so much better!

We searched Experdia for a hotel on Tahiti. Kaveka came up and looked good so we booked it and paid. We immediately realised the hotel was not on Tahiti and tried to cancel less than 5 minutes after booking. They did not suffer any loss or inconvenience, yet took our money and refused to reimburse one penny. What does that tell you about them?

The staff was very nice. The place is being renovated so perhaps it will steadily improve. The beach was unappealing. The food was extra expensive at the restaurant. The location was convenient to food shopping, a good food truck (roulette), to the public beach by the Sofitel and to hiking. Best of all, the price was relatively reasonable. So would I stay there again? Yes, likely so.

So this is our 2 additional nights on Moorea after staying at the Hilton; it's a value-stay, pretty good stop. I think the hotels.com photos don't show it well enough. The place is undergoing a renovation of some of the lodge/houses; so if you're planninng for July 25+ I'd ask for a a newer design. It's quiet, even though it's close to the road. The bay has some smaller cruise ships coming and going. There are cats and dogs kind of milling through the grounds. The restaurant is nice but needs more business. We had breakfast, but had dinner across the lagoon at Oeimeo (Wonderful). Front desk staff was great, more local chill vibe - lots of good ideas. You can snorkel right off the little beach and pier with good fish, and saw sea-turtles and sharks right off the dock. The staff was nice and gave some french bread for fish feeding off the end of the pier.

Would stay again

Thoroughly enjoyed our family vacation and stay at Hotel Kaveka. The staff and location were amazing, the bungalow was clean and comfortable. The only thing to mention is our bungalow did not cool diwn adequately from the ceiling fan or air-conditioner, however this did not stop our enjoyment of our room. We would stay here again.

Everything was wonderful, or cabana, the ocean, the staff from front desk to cleaning although seemed under staffed somewhat. We ate breakfast once and I would say being from the restaurant industry that it was VERY overpriced for the selection offered. Basic, fruit breads coffee and juice was 32.00 and if you upgraded to pancakes and eggs it was 36.00. Very slow service, but again understaffed. Lunch and dinner was VERY good though and pricing was okay. The grounds people and cleaning staff were wonderful. The cabanas were spacious and very comfortable. One suggestion would be to offer snorkeling equipment and a beach towel to your guests at no charge for what you charge to book a stay.

The hotel has bungalows and the restaurant is on the water. It is located directly on the beach in a very nice bay. The restaurant is very good but breakfast is too expensive for the food offered. You need a car to reach it from the airport or the harbor, and to move around the island. No public transportation and taxis are quite expensive.

I was a last minute check-in, which was a little problematic, as they had sorry of closed for the evening. I was told that this is their not busy season, but I would still expect an establishment such as that to be open past six. Minor issue with the windows, where I had to close them from outside to avoid mosquitoes. Staff is very friendly and helpful and the property is absolutely gorgeous. If not for those inconveniences I mentioned, I would have given them 5 stars across the board.

Paradise

Kaveka is lovely. This is by far the best of 3 hotels/resorts we stayed at while in Tahiti. Our bungalo was steps away from the water where we could watch fish swim around the reef or look up at the dramatic tropical mountain landscape near us. When it rained, we relaxed under the covered patio enjoying the views of rain without actually being wet. Kaveka is a great deal compared to other resorts, especially if you want a more quiet and intimate vacation. You can swim around some reefs right at the hotel which is very convenient. The room was very clean and comfortable. There are some friendly hotel cats and dogs that wander around the property during the day. And the staff is nice and helpful. We can't wait to come back. I'm hoping to bring the whole extended family one of these days :D
