Simply a terrific boutique hotel. Fantastic location on the edge of the water. Easy access to snorkeling, kayaking, etc. Wonderful rooms and common areas. Designed by the courteous and helpful owner… Who is a fantastic artist and interior designer. Terrific mix of simplicity, utility, and sophistication. We will be back!

We appreciated the natural setting and the steps to preserve nature and the ocean. We enjoyed sitting on the deck and watching all of the beautiful fish and rays, wow! Loved the beautiful views and water access. We also loved the rustic but elegant vibe of the decor. Every piece looked carefully chosen and fit perfectly. The bed and linens were amazing and comfortable. The waterfront bungalow we stayed in was well equipped for us to make breakfast and snacks. So peaceful!!! A slice of paradise.

Our stay was very enjoyable. I loved the eclectic vibes of this place. Having our morning breakfast brought to our patio was a great start to the day. We were also able to use the kayaks to paddle out to the motu which was a great experience. I would recommend staying at Hôtel Fenua Mata'i'oa

We stayed in the suite on the water and it was gorgeous. We had a little trouble finding the place with Apple Maps so probably best to use google maps. We saw stingrays and sharks right off the deck. And the most beautiful colorful fish! You can rent kayaks and SUPs. The lady who gave us the tour of the property was so nice and helpful. Power went out on the island so we slept with the doors open but I feel like we got lucky with power going out since sleeping with the doors open you can hear the waves and it’s so peaceful. No bugs came in, just 2 of the sweetest cats. Startled me at first but once I realized it was a cat in the bed I was fine :) If you don’t want to stay in the water front suite the other suites looked just as nice and the deck for the hotel is amazing. We got there before check in and we were able to lay out on the deck and swim and snorkel. Such an amazing stay!!

Well, I can honestly say that this is the best hotel I have ever stayed in. It is so beautiful and has so many lovely touches, everywhere you look there is something interesting. Eileen is an absolute delight and all the staff are friendly and enthusiastic. It is the mist extraordinary hotel and we really loved every minute of our time there. If we were to return to French Polynesia I wouldn’t even think about looking anywhere else. I hope so much that we get to return soon. Thank you so much for sharing your hotel with us Eileen.

The hotel was very comfortable, unusual and eclectic in a jungle like setting. Each lodging had a kitchenette and eating area. There were several living rooms in the hotel with original decorations. A pick up service was available to eat at a good nearby restaurant. The owner was charming and helpful. I would recommend this hotel.

Deanna

This place was fantastic. We arrived very early before check in but the receptionist checked us in and made it very easy for us. We were allowed the run of the place until our room was ready. We received a beautiful fresh flower lei and a very tasty welcome drink. There are many different common rooms to relax in and feel very private. Our room was absolutely beautiful and just like the pictures portrayed online. We had our own private deck which was great to sit out on and watch the fish and the waves crashing on the reef. It was a very peaceful, calm and quiet stay which we needed after a long cruise. Everyone there made us feel special including Eileen, Anaise especially. Also the young man who helped with our very heavy luggage. I would return to this place again if/when we ever come back. We fell in love with this beautiful place.

Our stay on Mo'orea was magical in a big part as a result of Hotel Fenua Mata'i'oa. From the moment we arrived we were made to feel welcomed, wanted, and cared for. A tremendous amount of thought went into the layout of the grounds, sitting areas, and rooms. Hotel Fenua Mata'i'oa seems to have been designed by someone with an eye for design, comfort, uniqueness, and romance. Our stay was nothing short of enchanting.

Beautiful hotel. Stayed in the romantic suite with the private beach. Loved every minute! Staff were lovely and attentive. Lots of greenery, meaning lots of bugs. The lagoon was perfect for snorkelling - so many fish and sharks and sting rays come down at night. Kayaks/paddle boards available to use to get out to snorkel at different places in the lagoon. Also kitchen area for basic cooking was useful. Would love to come back!!

This is a most excellent Boutique Hotel. It is not glitz and Glamour, but it is Authentic Polynesian with a Very Nice touch of class everywhere you look. The grounds are incredible. The Common areas are mainly unused but so beautiful. Eileen and her staff are magnificent. I highly recommend the Prestige Lolakalani Suite with your own over the water private dock.
