Marae Manunu Tours and Activities

We stayed at this property for our first trip to French Polynesia: The property owner and family: friendly, attentive, considerate, welcoming. Damien went above and beyond during our stay. We arrived at the property by mere coincidence that the taxi we inquired for help recognized the name of the property. Immediately calls Damien, and Damien arranged a ride with the taxi driver for a reduced fee. Arrived at the property earlier than the check-in hour, and we were accomodated quickly. Damien inquired about our plans during our trip and long story short, i ended up canceling my pre-arranged excursions for the recommendations and arrangements made by Damien. Yes, he called and made the arrangements for us. The staff: absolutely friendly, and welcoming. The cleanliness: 4/5. Nothing the property could really do, its from the environment. Lots of crabs, lizards, bugs, mosquitoes, theres nothing we can do from keeping them out of the room indefinitely. Around the property: Rhum factory/distillery are close by, 10-15 minute walking distance, vanilla plantain, pearl farm, coral garden all on the island. 10 minute drive to local markets, mini shops, and pharmacies. The ammenities: ac, mini kitchen, working stove, mini fridge, armoire, tv, shower and toilet. VIEW is incredible. The wifi is a solid 1/5 (at the restaurant than its a 4/5) bikes, kayaks, snorkeling gear and restaurant If given the opportunity to return, we would absolutely reach out to Damien and Karine. Maururuu!

Very nice stay in an overwater bungalow. Stayed in end of pontoon room. Stay was very friendly and attentive. Authentic Polynesian feel.

The water near the bungalows is too shallow to swim. The best swimming and snorkeling is 200 ft off shore. The cost for a round trip water taxi to Raiatea or Tahaa is extremely expensive (appx $ 300.00)
