After a ten day Princess Cruise, we ventured back to Linareva bungalows in Moorea to decompress. Roland and edne (the delightful owners) were quite attentive to our every need. Roland went way beyond the call of duty racing in his car to chase down the bus we left my wife's purse in, with all of our money and I.D. Miraculously,... more

That's the way my journal started each of the seven days we were there. When we booked, I wa worried because the reviews seemed too good to be true, but they weren't. Linareva is a great facility run by excellent staff in a beautiful location. The only consistant criticism in the past concerned the "aloofness" of the reception staff. That's... more

The hotel is in a really beautiful setting with great snorkeling right off the wharf. The rooms are very basic and need some TLC. Mismatched fixtures, worn paint, lumpy beds, etc. The current owners just bought the place this year and are working very hard to fix it up so I'm sure many of these items will be adressed soon.... more

I stayed there in July 2009 with my 17 year old daughter. The entire trip to Tahiti was a high school graduation present for her. We had the large Bungalow 8 at the foot of the dock. The dock makes the place. We spent tons of time on it feeding the fish. You don't even need to go snorkeling if... more

Luckily, the new owners of Linareva combine French savoir-faire with ruthless German efficiency to excellent effect. The beach front bungalows are... more

My husband and I spent 5 days at Linareva, after having cruised from Auckland to Papeete. We chose Linareva because of the reports we had read on tripadvisor, and we were not disappointed. We chose the garden bungalow, which was ideal, we did all our own meals in the well equipped kitchen, and it was great to be able to... more

My husband & I recently stayed at Linareva and we can't say enough good things about it. The accommodations were great - spacious, clean, and well kept. There was nothing but 30' between our front door and the water's edge. The new owners are incredibly friendly and accommodating - helping us w/ dinner arrangements, bus transportation, etc. They have plans... more

We enjoyed our 5 nights in a garden bungalow at Linareva. The setting with the lagoon and mountain backdrop is outstanding. In our bungalow was a kitchenette was well equipped. We fixed all of our meals here and it worked out nicely. The market is only a 5 minute bike ride away and every morning my husband enjoyed his daily... more
