Guest reviews - Villa Vaihau :

" Our family loved this house, our teenage son was fishing off the dock from sunrise to sunset. We snorkeled and kayaked and enjoyed everything, particularly the view. It was very peaceful and had a nice standard of design, finishes etc. " Lexie - July 2025

" Very pleased with our stay here. The house is very well equipped with everything one could want for a comfortable stay. There are plenty of amenities and the AirCon is super. The outside space is exceptional - we were able to watch both sunrise and sunset from the garden. " Sonia - July 2025

"We had an amazing stay and spent almost all of our time outdoors. It was the perfect place to relax—peaceful, with romantic sunsets, beautiful evening lighting, and wonderful early morning paddle sessions." Szilvia - August 2025

" We had a rough start to our AirBNB vacation as we had trouble finding the house. With a bit of help, we were able to find it, and once we were there, we had a wonderful vacation. It's an incredibly peaceful relaxing spot to just sit and enjoy the million-dollar view of the water. We used the kakaks to explore outside our door, and saw some incredible fish.
When we left, we accidentally left a bottle of wine behind, and our hostess was kind enough to deliver it to us at our next AirBNB. (We couldn't get the first AirBNB for our entire vacation, so we stayed in two different AirBNBs in Moorea.). What an incredible gesture to make sure we had a vacation to remember. " Barbara - September 2025

" We had a wonderful stay. The home is perfectly located right by the water, creating an ideal setting for relaxing outdoors. We enjoyed using the canoes to explore, or simply swimming nearby. We even spotted fish and stingrays passing by, which made the experience even more special.
The location felt very peaceful and private, and we felt safe with the locks and alarm system. The directions and detailed house instructions were excellent and made everything easy. We also appreciated having all the amenities needed to prepare our own meals, especially since many places were closed on Sunday. " Jian - March 2026
