“Good Location But......”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed April 24, 2012

These fares are in a great location with a beautiful sunset view each day.
They are quite dated, with fibro sheeting throughout.
As previously mentioned, no fly screens, no air conditioning.
We stayed 3 nights and didn't realise that they don't provide much. No soap, limited toilet paper, old scratchy towels, no tea/ coffee sachets. No problem if you're from Tahiti staying for a week or more and can transport all your supplies on the ferry, but when you're only staying a short time, you don't want to be carrying all these supplies on flights.
Great location for kids and helpful, welcoming owners.
Would recommend for families, or people staying for longer periods of time.

“Wish we could have stayed longer.”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed March 15, 2012

Really loved my 2 night stay here, wish it would have been 4 or 5 nights.

Celine was very helpful. She not only got us dinner one night, and delivered it to our bungalow, but she also brought us fresh bread in the morning. (for a price of course) And she was very helpful the day we left, she arranged for a shuttle to the ferry dock, let us store our baggage in the office, and even let us use an unoccupied bungalow for the day since our ferry wasn't until 5:45 PM.

Price is very fair for Moorea.

Slept ok, the bed was fairly comfortable.

Cleanliness was very good.

Location is great. Just down the road from places to eat and shop, but the best part is it's on a great beach with a large lagoon for swimming.

Bungalows are decent. They are old, and a bit worn (the floors felt a bit unstable in parts), but they are clean, and have plenty of room, plus the front porch is nice. It would have been great to have a hammock out front too.

If you come to Moorea to experience the simple life, and don't want/need any creature comforts or 5 star mega resorts, then come here to experience the beautiful beach, great service, and just RELAX your days away.

“Wonderfully quiet and restful”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed February 4, 2012

We loved our 5 nights here. The beach was just at our door, and we had sunset views across the lagoon every night. The bungalows are quite elderly, but have comfortable beds, are clean and the kitchens are basic, but with all you need. They are not serviced during your stay, but we were ok with this. The decor is cheerful and care has been taken with upgrading things like the stovetop. Celine is very helpful and informative about activities and information, and went out of her way to make our stay a good one. Having stayed at other properties in the area I appreciated the quietness of Fare Miti and the small number of bungalows which make it more private than the alternatives. If you like a busy resort style atmosphere, this is not the property for you.

“Perfect!!!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed January 3, 2012

We stayed at the Moorea Fare Miti for 3 nights before boarding a cruise around the Tahitian islands (Princess). If you are wondering whether or not to make the trek to Moorea (instead of staying near Papeete) DO IT!!! This was the most relaxing place we have ever been to, a real slice of paradise! It is not the Hilton or Pearl resort, but it is also not upwards of $700 per night! It is a small, family operated resort with local flair. The owners, Celine & Laurent were so friendly and helpful and were able to order Pizza or other food which was then delivered directly to our door. In addition, Celine comes around to your villa in the afternoon every day taking orders for fresh bread for the next morning...fresh french bread, butter and jam with a view of paradise every morning, what more could you ask for?!?!

The beach was awesome and a rarity (most places don't have such a nice long beach, you usually have to head to a motu for that), the snorkelling was GREAT and there is an island right off the beach that was walkable through the water, very fun to explore! There were tons of fish and different types of coral in the water just off the beach and around the island to explore. I am not a strong swimmer and my husband was able to teach me how to snorkel in this area, so it is perfect for kids!

The room was great, clean and simple with a cute thatched roof. It had a mini-fridge and a small, simple kitchen with a sink and stove, a bathroom with standing shower (no bathtub), a bedroom (ours was a 1 bedroom), a small living room with couches (that converted into 2 single beds for kids), and a covered deck complete with patio furniture, perfect for eating dinner and watching the sunset over the south pacific. The rooms don't have Air Conditioning or TV...never a problem for us because the windows open and you can get a nice sea breeze blowing through the room. Not having a TV was a blessing...why in the world would you come all the way to Moorea to watch TV? Isolation is the key to relaxation! :)

There were lots of restaurants within walking distance of the hotel along the coast, but our favourite place to eat was a little food cart (aka roulotte) called "Poulet Roti" (aka roasted chicken). It was run by a french expat and her son and was affordable and great. We ate there twice, once we bought a full roasted chicken with a salad (so yummy) and the second time a beautiful homemade quiche and a thai stir fry (also great). Highly recommended, we walked there from the resort.

All in all, when we return to Tahiti (because we will!) we will be staying at the Moorea Fare Miti.

“Best if Moorea”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed December 21, 2011

Fare Miti is truly a gem.
I read through the previous posts and decided this was the best spot for our honeymoon stay on Moorea! We booked our 3 island trip with a local tourism company that did not include Fare Miti, but we insisted on staying there. We stayed 4 nights, 5 days. We were able to see the other venues we had the option of staying at...none compared.
Celine was an amazing hostess and helped us with everything from renting a moto, making dinner reservations, and sharing tips on island highlights including grocery store location and shops to visit. We ordered the most delicious breakfast breads and picked them up from Celine each morning. We were on a budget and cooked supper in the kitchenette 2 of the nights. Nice supply of kitchen gadgets. We ate on our bungalo porch and enjoyed the view of the white sand beach and waves crashing in the lagoon. The beds were very comfortable, nice hot showers.
There were chickens on the neighboring property. I really enjoyed feeding the hen and chicks our bread crumbs from breakfast.
The beach is well maintained. There is a tire swing and lots of beach chairs..kayaks/snorkles and other fun stuff can be rented. The water was calm and clear. We saw colorful fish and coral.
We met Barb and Randy. Their post was why we chose Fare Miti! They are wonderful people and gave us lots of advice on what to see before we left. AND they offered us two tiare flowers... nothing smells so good!
We love Moorea and had the trip of a lifetime. It was an excellent honeymoon. We have found ourselves daydreaming of the sights/sounds/smells/tastes. We can't wait to go back.
You will love it.
