Shangri-la

Left on 02/02/2012 for a stay in January 2012

We had a blissful five nights at Fare Hamara before a cruise. If you want an overpriced over water bungalow this is not the place - but if you'd prefer to experience some of the real Moorea this is for you. Fare Hamara is a very special home: you can feel the hard work and love that has gone into the property and grounds. It was great to have space, peace and quiet, stunning views, and be able to cook for ourselves (very well equipped supermarkets) and stay in. And as for check-in, you couldn't do better than a personal welcome from the caretaker Jacques at the port. We're already reserving our place for 2013...

Paradise with all the comforts of home

Left on 12/22/2011 for a stay in October 2011

We loved staying at the house! Private accomodations with all the comforts of home, but close to everything. Best place to have a drink and watch the sunset from the deck. The owners have thought of everything in stocking the house ~ full kitchen, washer/dryer, even stuff on loan for the beach. We hope to get back to this lovely place in paradise soon.

Awesome views from the comfort of "home".

Left on 09/07/2011 for a stay in August 2011

After booking last minute tickets to Tahiti, I saw Fare Hamara on the Moorea website and decided I had to stay here. Unfortunately it was already booked for most of the dates of our stay. Bob graciously agreed to let us come for the 2 nights he had open (the minimum is usually 5) and was very helpful in giving us the name of a Fare in Tahiti the night we arrived, and the best time for the amereti ferry the next day. He emailed a lot of information useful for our stay on the island, from rental cars, to grocery shopping, to reliable pearl shops, to fun things to do. Booking with an american owner made it easy to communicate and make our reservation. Now for the Good stuff. The views from the living room, kitchen, and deck were awesome! The kitchen was well stocked, there was a BBQ grill on the deck, and we picked fresh grapefruit right off the tree in the back yard for breakfast. Jacque, the caretaker, lives just down the hill and was also a great resource for things to do. We brought our own snorkel gear, and there is a lovely public beach just minutes from Fare Hamara with some of the best snorkeling on the island (and recommended by locals). The chance to relax in the comfort of home was better than going to the spa. Next visit I am booking well in advance, bringing the family, and spending all my time at the beautiful Fare Hamara!

Outstanding Views

Left on 07/15/2011 for a stay in June 2011

We stayed at Fare Hamara for eight nights. The owner was extremely helpful and kind beyond words when we ran into some travel difficulties. There are windows that wrap around the house with amazing views of the mountains, palm trees, and the bay in every direction you look. The house is clean, comfortable, and well supplied. The caretaker is very helpful and respects your privacy. Everything about our stay at Fare Hamara was perfect and I highly recommend this vacation rental. It is also a good value!!

In 8 weeks and 15 islands this was our favorite place

Left on 09/27/2010 for a stay in July 2010

We absolutely loved Fare Hamara. It was perfect for our family of five and we would go back in a heartbeat. A cozy, well-equipped, charming house, ideal for those looking for alternative accommodation in the islands. Not for the over-water-bungalow crowd.

Rustic Jungle Seclusion-Majestic Moorea and Opunohu Bay

Left on 08/31/2010 for a stay in August 2010

We have been to Moorea 4 times since 2004 and have stayed at resort hotels in overwater bungalows, beach bungalows and cruised on the Star Flyer from the StarClippers Fleet. Nothing compares to Fare Hamara. The location, the privacy, views and seclusion made this the best vacation we have ever experienced. We wanted to experience living like a local, and we truly felt this was our home for the short 5 days we were here! We rented a car, bought all groceries at the local market, chicken on the side of the road and baguettes for our meals. We cooked every meal at "home", and with all the utencils and appliances, was very easy. We loved just hanging out at "home" and reading the books and magazines, and taking pictures of the flowers and plants on the property. We brought all our own alcohol from the us, to keep costs down and to have our favorites at hand! From coffee on the deck each morning to happy hour sunsets at night, the views and peacefulness could not be better! We already are planning to go back next year, this will be our "home away from home" from now on (and will stay longer than 5 days)! Thanks to Jacques, the caretaker, just a phone call or short walk away, took care of any needs we had. Can't wait to hear more of his stories and learn more about Tahiti and some French next visit!

Idyllic location

Left on 04/08/2010 for a stay in June 2009

The location of this house was terrific, on a hill with lush foliage overlooking beautiful Opunohu Bay, private and quiet, yet close to nearby towns & shops. House was very clean and the kitchen had everything we might need (except no microwave). Really good screens- so no mosquito problem. It was a great help to be met at the ferry by the caretaker who assisted with luggage and stocked a few food items for our Sunday arrival. Beds were very comfortable, with ceiling fans and high ceilings providing good air circulation which made sleeping great. Location of the house fairly high up on the hill makes this a fabulous spot with beautiful breezes - though not a real easy walk home if you like to walk everywhere.
It was a short drive to good snorkeling at the pretty public beach not far from the house, or to shopping, or good 'snack shops' that we found had excellent less-expensive food. The guest book has some very helpful suggestions for things to do on the island, and the owner was very friendly and helpful prior to our arrival. The house is really lovely, and we spent every morning on the wrap-around porch enjoying the incredible view and changing colors of Opunohu Bay. We would definitely return!!
P.S. double check the ferry schedule - ours was changed at the last minute due to a 'holiday' that we never knew anything about. We got the last ferry that day to Moorea, 10:30 AM!!!, thanks to help from a very nice local Polynesian in Papeete.

We had a wonderful time at Fare Hamara, thank you. The house was equipped with everything we needed. The shower was awesome, the driveway fun, the grounds beautiful and the view was outstanding!!! Thanks again and I hope we make it there again someday.
