Moorea-Maiao, Windward Islands hotel rooms at the Independent

"We loved the luxury of the overwater bungalow and the excellent poolside and beach service, especially by Tapu and Pierre. Our housekeeping staff arrived regularly and kept our room immaculate.The lagoon water was pristine, especially for morning snorkeling, with tons of fish including sharks! We also enjoyed the buffet dinner and Polynesian show. We had an unforgettable week. "

"Reception staff was very helpful. They gave us a tour of the hotel while walking us to our room. Our over-the-water bungalow was absolutely stunning! Room and bathroom were very clean and all necessities were provided to us. It was a wonderful experience, but I wish it was a little less expensive so we could have afforded more than 1 night there."

"Beautiful place, welcoming, and had everything"

"Everything was great. The room was so beautiful. Everything is clean. The staff is friendly and helpful. They have bikes you can borrow for a quick run to the grocery store. We also enjoyed taking out the paddle boards. "

"Loved the location and amenities offered. Jennifer and Jenny were amazing. We will come back. "

"Very nice clean and cozy property with small kitchen that we didn't use and washer/dryer. I would carry detergent sheets or tablets if you plan to do laundry. There Sunset views were incredible. The shower left there while bathroom wet as it is not well designed but it meet our needs and didn't take away from this being a great stay."

"A wonderful resort with great amenities. My husband and I stayed in an overwater bungalow. It was quiet and relaxing, with beautiful views and so many fish to see while snorkeling. The sunrise and sunset at the beach were beautiful. There was a variety of different cuisines at the buffet, and we enjoyed the dance show at dinner. The Polynesian massage at the spa was one of the best massages I’ve ever had. Overall, our time at the resort was one of the highlights of our trip."

"Great place to spend a few nights. Restaurant on the beach front serving fresh fish and a good menu selection. Friendly staff and breakfast included ! "

"Beautiful bungalow has everything you need, separate kitchen is delightful, area is clean. You can enjoy sunset straight from your bedroom or terrace. AC in each room works great. Definitely will return. "
