If you’re looking for pure relaxation, this is the perfect place. Right on the beach and nestled in a lush garden, it’s a haven of peace and tranquility. Each morning, watching the sunrise while listening to the crashing waves felt incredibly therapeutic.The bungalow was well equipped with everything we needed, including a large shower and a stove for preparing meals, details we truly appreciated. Toshimi and her family were warm, welcoming, and always ready to help with great recommendations. We would gladly return anytime.

Great Stay on Moorea!

Had a great stay here while in Moorea. Great location and had everything we needed during our stay. Mingee the dog was also a great host while we were there she was always eager to walk with us down to the beach.

Lovely Bungalow

This was a fabulous little bungalow slightly off the beaten path. It has a lovely outdoor area where you can sit and watch the sunset. Small, quaint and everything you need. Internet was a little sketchy at times. Would stay there again

We had an absolutely wonderful stay in Moorea. The accommodations were spotless, comfortable, and thoughtfully maintained. The garden and beachfront setting are truly magical. Waking up to that view each day felt like something out of a postcard.The location is excellent and very convenient to the ferry, which made arriving and departing easy. It is also next to the golf course and small airstrip. We were a bit surprised the first time a plane landed, but it quickly became part of the charm of the area and never disturbed our sleep.I would recommend having a car so you can easily explore the island, and there is space to park a small car at the property.Michele and Elisabeth were incredibly kind and welcoming hosts. Their hospitality made our stay even more special. We would absolutely stay here again and would highly recommend this property to anyone visiting Moorea.

Morning coffee, evening drinks a few steps to the ocean

Perfect location, 1 mile walk to Temae Beach. Special bonus, sweet Michi dog. We also liked the garden area to play cards. It was like glamping as fridge and cold water sink were not in the kitchen, but in an outdoor room. Host Michel was very nice but limited English. 3.2 miles to Maharepa. We walked from Albert Transport by Manava Resort although Albert's wanted to drive us after renting a car.

Excellent friendly wonderful

Annabelle treated us like family. Air France lost our luggage in LAX. Anabelle fixed us up with a pair of Michel's shorts and other amenities, and stayed waiting for our luggage while we continued our honeymoon touring Moorea. Minjee was our friendly dog for 3 days in and out of the bungalow and when we walked through the garden to our own beach. Rustic glamping with all the necessities, that we loved. No exact address, but Michel is right there is only one place two driveways after Green Lodge (note Green Lodge has two driveways).

Wonderful, relaxing bungalow!

This bungalow was exactly as described on the website. Excellent communication with Michael and checkin was easy! The bungalow was immaculate and had a very large bathroom/shower! Kitchen was nice. Just down the road is a family owned restaurant, Motu Grill which was opened for lunch and dinner. Prices were good and the grilled chicken was delicious. Also about 1/2 mile from the bungalow was a public beach. Easy to walk or drive. We didn't rent a car so walked or had taxi meet us right infront of the Motu Grill sign. Spent my early mornings watching the sunrise over the sea. What a breathtaking sight that was every morning. Manjee(owner's friendly dog) joined me as we sat and enjoyed it. We strolled along the beach in the early evening and saw whales going by. What a sight to see! If your looking for a place on the beach to relax and unwind from the hustle and bustle of the busy world. This is your place! It was one of the most relaxing vacations I have had in a long while! I would absolutely stay here again and will definitely tell my friends about it.

Lost in the Dark on Team

I don't recommend arriving after dark to this accommodation haha as the Accoms has 'no name' and therefore no name on the Gate - even after the very clear instructions (2nd gate way after Green Lodge) - we still managed to go to wrong property - actually I think it was the Book-a-bach site location map did not show THIS property CLEARLY ENOUGH on the map provided - so that would help Book-a-Bach - please Name THIS property on your site map "Bungalow in a Garden" it will help travellers ..... c'est la vie. A/c was fantastic and appreciated! Internet was a bit hit and miss when we stayed. We would have appreciated having push bikes close by to get to shops or beach or just enjoy walking lots or paying for taxi's. Motu Grill Restaurant is just at end of the driveway - lifesaver. Own access to beach with possibility of seeing whales sail by is Superb also - no whales til whale season Aug - Oct??. Appreciated Elisabeth comms via WhatsApp quickly - would be great to have Local Host to respond same day, we felt a bit 'left' as we were not familiar with a lot of amenities/local but we know now and would definitely be back to see our friend Minghee the dog. Appreciated the cold Hinano also!! Cheers Michel & Elisabeth.

Our stay in the bungalow was really nice. Pros: The bungalow was roomy, and the owners live in the home next to the bungalow. They have chairs right at the ocean for you to enjoy. Their dog, along with the neighborhood dogs, will accompany you in their garden and along the beach. They are all docile. The fridge and AC worked great, which allowed us to eat food in the bungalow. Temae beach snorkel area is just around the corner down the dirt road, and it offers some of the best snorkeling and clarity we could find. There is a small current though so you will need to just let the ocean take you along while you snorkel, and then walk up the beach. Cons: This is a true “bungalow” so unless you keep it closed up, there will be an occasional mosquito inside. We also had ants that decided to help themselves to some of our packaged food, so look for the bug spray to stop them as soon as you see them (there's a bottle in the kitchen and in the washroom that's just outside the bungalow). There's also a mosquito coil to burn if you need it. It is near an airport, so when a plane takes off it can be noisy. It can be hard to find, especially at night. You will be on a dirt road and then turn onto a one lane road. To find the road you will need to make a hairpin turn as soon as you arrive at the Motu grill. The owners will provide instructions to identify which home is theirs once you are ready to check in. All in all, it was a great stay.

Our stay was absolutely amazing! My wife and I walked through the garden to the beach every morning to watch the most beautiful sunrises. The property was clean and comfortable. The air conditioning was perfect for sleeping at night. The host was super friendly and gave us ideas on what to do and see while visiting. I would highly recommend this bungalow and would stay here again!

This is a very nice, rustic place to relax and unwind. Very quiet neighborhood with a beautiful yard and beach. The beach is on the windward side so it was a little too rough to swim in. We had our coffee as the sun rose in the morning and quiet drink as it set in the evening. The dogs are great. The host was very nice. And we saw whales

What an amazing stay with the best hosts!! Thank you Elizabeth and Mikel. What a lovely welcoming to a cozy place right on the beach. Highly recommend staying here and will definitely return. They provided us with welcome beverages and then some homemade yummy breads. Gave us some helpful info on things to do around the island and their two dogs were the sweetest, Mingee and Joy. They came along our strolls on the beach and made us feel at home. Everything was perfect and made our first experience on Moorea one to remember. Thanks again sweet hosts for the departing gifts, we will return. Safe travels to you on your France trip. Please keep in touch. Merci Beaucoup!! Cindy and Yale

Beachside on Moorea

Cozy little bungalow on the beach. We were able to watch the sunrise from the beach only a few steps from where we slept. Air conditioning was a nice treat for the hot humid nights. The hosts were very gracious and pleasant to deal with.
