My parents, french father and tahitian mother, built this beautiful wooden house on stilts 47 years ago when Mo'orea was encircled by only a sand road and there were perhaps a dozen cars on the island. It has been renovated in 2007, 2008, 2010 and 2020. The wooden shingled roof is covered with white tin which, when you arrive from the sea, is hidden by the trees. Glass doors invite you to the sight-seeing of the beautiful gardens and lagoon from the living room. The paintings, furniture, decoration and tahitian bedcovers contribute to the warm mood of this house.
The refreshing and constant trade winds on the North coast offset the heat while insuring the best exposure to the sun on the island. It also partially explains why there are fewer mosquitoes here than inside the valleys. The pure sea air, the tranquil lagoon, the calmness, the beauty of the garden and the character of the house, all will seduce you.
The location is very convenient. The trip to Pape'ete lasts 7 mn by plane, 30 mn by fast ferry, 45mn-1 hour by ferry. The house is also 1.8 mile from the golf course, 1.2 mile from the commercial centre of Maharepa (doctors, drugstore, bank, fashion clothes, souvenirs ...). There are 34 snacks, restaurants, galeries and shops, in a range of 3 miles. There's a grocery store at a walking distance.
Mo'orea probably answers more to tourists’ expectations than Porapora which was an American military base during the World war II. In Polynesian history, as clanic wars were frequent, Mo'orea welcomed defeated and fleeing troups from Tahiti. Captain Cook came at the end of the 18th century. Today, about 2000 persons live in Mo'orea and work in Tahiti. Most of the local painters and scupltors seek inspiration on the island for its natural beauty and appreciate the friendliness of its people. Some locals speak English, most speak Tahitian, one of the polynesian languages of the triangle: Hawai'i-Easter island (Rapa nui) and New-Zeland (Te-ao-tea-roa). The official language is French.
Moorea-Maiao is home to this villa. Mont Rotui and Moorea Tropical Garden reflect the area's natural beauty and area attractions include The Sea Turtles Care Center and Tiki Village Cultural Centre. Spend some time exploring the area's activities, including golfing.
