My wife and I nearly cried on the day we had to leave this beautiful hotel. It was one of the most spectacular properties either and I had ever been to, and we felt so beautifully cared for by the staff, particularly the owner, Eileen. From the arrival with flower leis and a luscious cocktail, to the property which is entirely surrounded by vivid turquoise water, to our spectacular bedroom with a bath/shower surrounded by plants and a private beach, we never wanted to leave the property, and only did for a few tours. Other than that, why would you want to be anywhere else but with that view! We also had massages at the property that were fantastic. Every detail was cared for and beautiful. We’ve had a truly remarkable trip in FP but Hotel Fenoa Mata’i’oa is the place we most deeply want to return to.

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.

Hotel is challenging to find with a rental car. Very small signage, looks like you turning down a driveway. Once you pass this challenge, you are in for a nice surprise. You enter the property through a path with tall foilage all-around. The property and room have character and are charming. The pillows are firm.

My daughter & I spent 4 delightful nights here after a cruise. The staff was wonderful & helpful. We were greeted with a lei & delicious welcome drink.The property was amazing & one of the most beautiful locations I have ever experienced. We had an amazing suite with our private dock. It was so unique & even came with a couple of cats that we loved! We sat outside in the evenings & watched all different kinds of fish swim by. Was very cool. I would love to return some day although it is half way around the world!

We greatly appreciated the friendliness of the staff and how they promptly answered and/or addressed questions and concerns. We were able to see many different types of fish, eels, stingrays, black finned sharks etc. right from the deck of our accommodations. The ambiance was beautiful and tropical. This was a wonderful place to relax and unwind. Thank you

Hotel Fenua is beyond beautiful. Our room we originally booked was unfortunately unavailable, but we were upgraded to the presidential suite at no extra charge. The staff was happy to book excursions for us, and provide us with options for other activities around Moorea. The property is on the lagoon and we were fortunate enough to see stingrays and sharks from the wraparound deck. Some friendly cats to keep you company. Would recommend, especially if you're looking for a unique stay with a French Polynesian atmosphere.

Following a week of Sailing with friends in Bora-Bora, we decided that a final night stay in Moorea would be a good end to our trip. We discovered that Fenua Mata'i'oa had a 3-bedroom suite that was perfect for our group. Nicely decorated and comfortable, we settled in for a luxurious night. We were early, but Eileen greeted us warmly and the staff took care of our luggage while offering a welcome cocktail by the lagoon. Breakfast the next morning was perfect. Would stay again and again.

Disliked: Staff & service
This has been the worst experience I've had in my two decades of international travel. Thanks to Eileen, the hotel manager/owner? We had not been at the hotel for one or two hours when we decided to go to the nearest convenience store to grab some items when she had already entered the suite w/out our consent, she stated that "housekeeping" entered to do turndown service as that's what they do. HOWEVER, no turndown service was ever done and everything was as we had made it. We never saw housekeeping around during our stay, and believe she was the alleged housekeeping snooping because we had asked for additional sheets/linens, which she offered to RENT for additional ~$60. We politely declined and decided to grab the sheets from the couch. She was upset we did such thing because according to her we rented a 3 king size, 3 bedroom suite for 6 people...which was advertised by Expedia. However, we NEVER explicitly requested nor stated that we had such sleeping arrangements of 2 adults to sleep per bed. We respected the 6 guest that we booked, we booked an ENTIRE suite, never had a hotel prohibited a guest from sleeping on the couch if they so desired. After we asked for privacy, she went in again when stepped out of the property. This review has limited characters and limited a more thorough review, also no allowance for pictures but we have all the proof. Expedia should disassociate from this property. 0 respect for privacy requests &0 professionalism talking back at us rudely.
