Whales, sunsets and pure blissWe've just returned from Nicholas' beautiful villa on Motu Fareone, and it truly is paradise on earth. This was our third visit to Moorea. We've stayed at the Manava Beach Resort and the Sofitel before, but this was by far our best experience.It's hard to describe how beautiful the motu is, from the surrounding lagoon to the incredible view from the deck. Even our photos don't do it justice. Every day we watched humpback whales playing in the ocean just beyond the lagoon. The sunsets were outstanding, and snorkelling right off the beach in front of the villa was a daily treat.The villa is beautifully decorated, spotless, and flows easily between indoors and outdoors. The kitchen and dining area open onto the outdoors, so you can cook and eat with full views of the lagoon. The separate cottage worked perfectly for our family and gave our two young adult sons their own space and privacy.Nicholas was a pleasure to deal with and answered all our questions quickly before we arrived. Romain was a star. He was always happy to help, transported us to the main island for excursions, and gave us great local advice. We were lucky enough to have him cook for us twice, and his meals were delicious.For privacy, beauty and genuine hospitality, Nicholas' villa is in a class of its own. We can't recommend it highly enough and are already dreaming of our return.
