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!

The best of Cook’s Bay

Incredible huge home on the best location that Cook’s bay has to offer. We were a large group of 9 and had everything we could possible want. The A/C in all the bedrooms worked flawlessly. Jean Marie, the host, was there to greet us upon arrival and couldn’t have been nicer. Fortunately he allowed us a late check out since we had a ferry to catch at 5 pm. We’ve stayed at a couple of other well known villas on Cooks bay in the past but this was by far our favorite. We’ve been to Mo’orea a dozen times so we knew what was available. Don;t hesitate to book this incredible villa.

Nailed it

Every other review is completely accurate. Amazing location, amazing amount of space, fantastic amenities for families (and family time). Our group was two families of four and everyone thought it was a fantastic vacation. We had a small issue one evening with one of the ACs not turning on, I messaged the host and 10 minutes later (late at night) he was there to show us how easy it was to fix (our ignorance...).

Another magical time on Cooks Bay

We visited this property just eight months ago and were so taken by the property (and Moorea in general) that we came back for a second round within the year! This time we were two families with four children 8-12 plus two grandparents. The house was perfect for our group -- we knew it would be. Incredible views, a great dock and tons of water toys to paddle in the bay, fish and sharks and rays cruising by off the dock, easy access to all of the rest of the island via taxis... couldn't ask for more. For us northerners, the AC in the bedrooms is also critical. Just an awesome place -- thank you for sharing it with us again Monique and Jean!

Cook bay house

We were 3 families with kids aged from 4 to 11. We had an amazing time. The house has a great location as you have can go to beaches, hiking start (belvedere) within less than 20min. Vue from the house is awesome as it's on the bay and has a direct access to the beach that we enjoyed a lot. Warm welcome from the owner. We'll definitely come again.

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.

Amazing Property

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!

Great Stay

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.

Best Birthday Celebration Location!

This place was AMAZING!!! Adrian the host welcomed us at the house with leis for the whole group. As soon as you open the door to this property you are in awe. It was beautiful! The rooms were comfortable and clean. Every room upstairs had a view of the water. The view was out of this world. I can't say enough about how great this place was. The air conditioners were great on those really hot days. Again, Adrian was so amazing from giving us rides to the grocery store to sending some of us off at the airport.
