Incredible holiday

Amazing house for an extended family group of 12, aged 2-76. Fantastic spaces for everybody to relax in (we loved the games room) and the most beautiful near-private beach with tame stingrays and reef sharks. Great snorkelling right off the beach and all-tide swimming. We would love to go back one day.

Reunion

First the property, this is a magnificent estate, and the website pictures are right on. We are four couples in our 60s and 70s and it was perfect with four bedrooms and four bathrooms. The amenities were great such as snorkel gear and kayaks. The kitchen was very accommodating well stocked with utensils plates and cooking equipment, including a wonderful barbecue in the bar area. The people were fantastic. First, Caroline was super at checking as in and helping us throughout the week with tours and setting up dinners for us. Second FiFi fixed us two fantastic dinners, she was great. And third, Melody, came in five days to do some housekeeping and she was delightful. We cannot wait to come back.

Perfect Moorea Home

Caroline was incredibly helpful before and during our stay, answering questions, setting up groceries and a homemade dinner, helping to adjust our ferry tickets last minute. She was the best introduction to this experience! The house was incredible- you couldn’t ask for more. On the beach, with kayaks and snorkeling equipment, a jacuzzi, spa, game room, outdoor bbq area, hammock, hanging chairs, huge house with big bathrooms and a separate house for our 9th family member. There were games, books, comfy couches and lovely showers. We felt very taken care of with daily cleaning, night security, and a private space to ourselves in an excellent location. We went running or walking on the road and beach daily from the front door. It was so hard to leave!

"Just Another Day In Paradise"

Our family of 10, ages 16 to 84, just spent 14 days at Fare Varari Villa. Thank You to Tahia for making your beautiful property available! It is difficult to convey the beauty and serenity found here. From the almost private beach to the game room, hot tub, pavilion, and beautifully landscaped property it is easy to see why we called this place paradise! And then there are several people who make it all happen! A special thank you to Caroline who can arrange anything or answer any question and is always available! A special thank you to dear FiFi for preparing fabulous meals for us! A special thank you to Melody for keeping everything clean! And a special thank you to Vehia in charge of security! We will think of Fare Varari often and all the wonderful people who are part of it.

Special Property and Incredible Experience

We had a magical stay at Fare Varari. The property is beautiful and the views of the lagoon, reef, sunset, etc. are truly captivating in person. Our family of 2 adults and 3 young-ish children particularly enjoyed the hot tub, the game room, the hammock and the open air pavilion next to the main house. Bedrooms/bathrooms were all very nice and the kitchen suited us well. It is obvious that a lot of thought has been put into making the property and its amenities first-rate. We spent much of our time snorkeling in the coral gardens that begin mere feet from the shoreline and kayaking further out into the lagoon. Caroline, the property manager was responsive, friendly and helpful. The overnight security guard and cleaning lady (Melody?) were was also lovely and helpful. Moorea has a special place in our hearts and we are anxious to return. When we do, I can’t imagine we’d stay anywhere else; it was simply perfect for us. Mauruuru!

Fabulous Villa on Morrea

Gorgeous villa on a beautiful beach with lovely calm water. Each room is well appointed with a beautiful bathroom. The outdoors has a variety of places to hang out and we used them all! The studio has a wonderful game party room that we enjoyed late night. The villa is equipped with a number of kayaks and new snorkel sets for 10! There are floats as well and a ping pong table that we loved. The grounds are beautiful. Caroline, the house manager, is exceptional! Extremely attentive, responsive, answered all questions and followed through on everything quickly. So friendly as we arrived and gave us a complete tour of the property and lovely fresh leis. Friendly stingrays swim by. We kayaked one morning and encountered 20 dolphin playing and jumping and spinning in the air, right by us! The snorkeling is lovely with reefs right out front. We loved our stay and hope to return sometime! It is a unique gorgeous spot and managed perfectly! Highly recommend!

Best location in Moorea

We stayed at Fare Varari villa with my kids and grandkids, 9 total. The villa is luxurious with new large bathrooms, 5 stars bedding and towels. The beach in the front of the house is amazing; the best spot is Moorea for swimming, kayaking and let the kids play on the sand and shallow water. We stayed last year at the Sofitel and this house could bit the Sofitel on every aspect. Everything is at the house for you to enjoy for a perfect vacation! Fifi prepared for us one night an outstanding BBQ diner with local delicious dishes. Caroline arranged for us Fire dances by local dancers and band. This was a remarkable night! Highly recommended. The house and location exceeded our expectations. Caroline, property manager, was in contact with me before and during our trip to make our trip remarkable and help us to book few activities. The house offers 2 hours of daily cleaning that was great to have our room organized and changing towels if you need. This place is outstanding and magical better than on the pictures! I am highly recommended this place and thanks to Caroline and her staffs we had an unforgettable vacation.

Phenomenal House with Amazing Customer Service

We traveled here last month with our friends and fell in love at first sight. Caroline was very quick and thorough in her communications with us, and just a lovely human being. All staff were amazing - Fifi did a wonderful job cleaning and we enjoyed our private security guard. Highly recommend doing the traditional Tahitian dance lesson and having Fifi cook you a local style dinner. It was such a treat and our friends said both of these activities were in their top three highlights of the trip. The kitchen had everything we needed for making meals for 8 people, the only thing missing was a drinking water dispenser for the giant 5 gallon jugs of drinking water (cannot drink from the tap anywhere in Tahiti), but we bought one so hopefully it is there for us next time to use. Limited screens on the windows and door so we kept the house closed most of the time to avoid mosquitos, but it was cool enough weather in late September to do so. The house itself is a gorgeous space, very comfortable, tastefully decorated. We have already booked for next year and would recommend this beautiful space to everyone. A huge mauruuru to Caroline and Fifi for making our stay so memorable. Na na till next time! Sara and Tim

Incomparable property with fantastic service

This vacation rental has no equal. Without a shadow of a doubt, Fare Varari is the most exceptional property you can find, at any price. This breathtaking home is literally paradise on earth. And this paradise comes with its own “Saint” and her name is Caroline. Together, they will ensure this will be the vacation stay of a lifetime. Our family of 10 (aged 10-80) had an amazing visit at this wonderful home. The property is enormous and beautifully landscaped. Incredible snorkeling every day off our almost private beach. Rays, black tipped sharks and variety of coral fish were abundant. The lagoon is calm and safe for all. The home is beautiful inside and out. Air conditioned bedrooms, beautiful bathrooms and fantastic outside seating. Kayaks, outrigger canoe and snorkel gear for all ages add to water pleasure. Caroline, the property manager couldn't have been more helpful before and during our stay. Caroline answered all our pre trip questions and made our stay fantastic. She was able to pre stock the house with groceries for our arrival. She was always available and helped arrange travel and tours including dinner reservations in Papeete for our departure evening. The game room was fantastic fun for everyone The chef, security guard and daily cleaning were all exceptional. A short trip to the owners ( Tahia) gem store, just down the road, is well worth it!! All in all, our best family trip ever.

Phenomenal Property, Exceptional Team

Caroline is the most efficient, responsive, gracious host and we were super impressed by her team. Everything was perfect because of the fantastic group of people that makes this home and its experiences so special. A huge thank you to Vahia, the night watchman, for doing such an amazing job. He is discreet, kind, and just a lovely human being. We sincerely enjoyed our dance lesson from the lovely Marie France! And if you can, ask for the local chef Fifi to create you a delicious meal with local Polynesian dishes. Her guava pumpkin dessert was so special. This lovely lady worked around our allergies and made it a night to remember for all our friends. I cannot say enough wonderful things about Caroline. Her attention to detail and beautiful heart shine through everything she does. She was quick with her communication, curated wonderful memorable experiences for us, and we had absolutely everything we needed under her care. A true professional, we respect her so much. If you are considering booking this villa, I highly recommend you do. Trust me, it is worth it. Fare Varari is the absolute best luxurious property. Quality linens, great hot water for the gorgeous bath tubs, plenty of outdoor space with comfortable seating, a kitchen with every gadget and utensil you could hope for, and a full closet of toys to explore the reef with. The view will mesmerize you, but we keep coming back because of the incredible team. Mauruuru Roa! Sara and Tim
