Book a hotel near Afareaitu Waterfall, Moorea-Maiao

"Beautiful property. Staff was all friendly and helpful. Bed was a little hard. Everything was clean and well taken care of. Quiet and safe property. Walking distance to other dining locations."

"By far, our two week stay at the Gooding House was the best stay we have ever experienced. 3 generations of our family had the most amazing time there celebrating my husband and my anniversary, and rang in the new year. The house was perfect with excellent amenities. There were so many different spaces to chill out and enjoy the most stunning views from the dock, private beach, and on both floors. You can snorkel right off the private beach. The house is stocked with water toys, games, ping pong, foosball, billiard table. Clean, spacious bedrooms and bathrooms, plenty of parking. Mangoes, avocado, coconut trees, a true oasis. Monique was very helpful with all my questions before we arrived. She went on vacation so Aiden welcomed us and he was such a wonderful host, so friendly and helpful (and very funny). He helped us get tickets for a fantastic boat trip for 21 people. We have traveled and stayed at many places, and this by far is our favorite, bar none. Highly recommend! Thank you Aiden for your hospitality and making our stay so magical!"

"Amazing resort! We loved the overwater villas. Moorea is amazing! Highly recommend!"

"The staff was so friendly and accommodating! The lagoon bungalow I stayed in was clean and the view was great. The A/C worked too. A lovely place to stay. My only complaint was the lack of parking and you had to pay a lot for extra’s such as beach towels, so bring your own. "

"Cook’s Bay is one of the most wonderful places we’ve ever stayed, and we’ve stayed at many fantastic places around the world. The staff was amazingly nice. The rooms were spotless. The beds were very comfortable. The air-conditioning worked. The showers were hot. The towels were first class. Most important for us was the amazing snorkeling right off the edge of the property and the amazing views of the beautiful mountains of Moorea. We saw sharks, turtles and rays along the beautiful coral reef that drops down like a cliff just off the water’s edge. The water was unbelievably clear and blue. The swimming pool was perfect. My only hesitation in writing this review is that it will encourage more people to go there when I would love for this to remain a secret."

"Amazing stay, would go back multiple times if possible. Room was spotless and equipped with everything we needed. The pool, grounds and restaurants were beautiful. The beach is small but it has plenty of chairs and shade. We didn’t spend any time in the pool since we mostly snorkeled and paddled when we were there. The fish in the reefs in the lagoon by the hotel were vibrant and worth every cent. We didn’t take a separate snorkeling tour in Moorea like we had to in Bora Bora be a use this hotel has many fish in it’s lagoon (unlike our Bora Bora hotel). It was lovely and the Polynesian show was very nice. The breakfast was excellent. Maururu."
