Excellent modern accommodations in Bora Bora
We had a superb stay here at Fare Toerau. The house is spacious with an open floor plan and lofted second floor. Its modern appliances for cooking and laundry made staying here very convenient, and sleeping is comfortable with the bedroom ACs. The provided bikes and snorkeling equipment are also handy and we made good use of them - it’s a nice bike ride to Matira beach. Our property manager Luana was very attentive, responsive, and friendly - I cannot recommend her enough. She helped us book a rental car on New Years Eve when it was sold out pretty much everywhere, and has plenty of recommendations for activities.Location-wise, it is a 15 minute bike ride to Matira beach, the only public beach on the island. Many activities can be booked in this area, including a lagoon tour (Motu FanFan) and jet skiing (Matira Jet), both excellent. The closest grocery store is Tiara Market, a 8 minute bike ride away, although Chin Lee in Viatape has better prices and selection. I would suggest a rental car for at least a portion of the trip, and definitely ask Luana for recommendations - as a local, she can secure better prices for rental cars and activities.We also enjoyed several of the fresh delicious passionfruit that grows on the front wall of the property :)
