Fare Vainina– Private beach - Golf | Villa in Moorea
3 Bedroom Villa in Temae, Moorea
From the very first moments, you'll be struck by the serenity that emanates from this rare place. Powdery white sand stretches out at your feet, the calm sea fades into the horizon, and the sky’s reflections shimmer across the turquoise lagoon. All around, nature sets the pace, offering you the rare sensation of having found your own private haven — timeless and far from the world’s noise.
Just a five-minute walk away lies the wild and secluded Temae Beach, offering an exceptional setting for swimming and snorkeling in crystal-clear waters. A little further on, you’ll discover some of the island’s most iconic beaches. One of Moorea’s most beautiful stretches of sand is located less than a kilometer away, while the legendary beach of Haapiti, a kitesurfers’ paradise, is only a 20-minute drive. From the nearby Tipaniers hotel, you can hop aboard a canoe to reach a motu, a small white-sand islet where a beachfront restaurant awaits for a laid-back and unforgettable lunch.
A SEASIDE HOME FILLED WITH LIGHT AND SIMPLICITY
Built in the spirit of traditional Polynesian architecture, the house blends harmoniously with its natural surroundings. It was designed as a fluid and open living space, favoring natural ventilation, clean lines, and raw materials. Everything here encourages a lifestyle that flows between indoors and outdoors, with nature as your constant backdrop.
The bright, open-plan living room extends fully onto the shaded terrace and ocean beyond, blurring the line between inside and out. It’s a welcoming and peaceful space, ideal for reading, conversation, or simply admiring the lagoon. The kitchen, modest but fully functional, includes a fridge, microwave, coffee maker, and kettle. Portable fans are also available in the living area.
The sleeping arrangements are cleverly designed to accommodate families or small groups:
A master bedroom with air conditioning faces the lagoon, featuring a queen-size bed (160 x 200 cm) and direct sea view — a true cocoon of tranquility.
A mezzanine level offers one double bed and two additional floor mattresses, ideal for children or teens. Two portable fans are provided.
A third bedroom, accessible via the bathroom, also features air conditioning and a queen-size bed (160 x 200 cm). Calm and intimate, it's perfect for restful nights.
The home has one bathroom, equipped with a walk-in shower — ideal after a dip in the lagoon or a hike through the tropical landscape. Practical and minimal, it mirrors the home’s natural spirit.
Outside, the shaded wooden terrace is the heart of the house. It’s where you’ll enjoy morning coffee as the sun rises, share meals in simplicity, and watch the stars appear above the gentle rhythm of the waves. A 3 x 3 m plunge pool offers a refreshing dip between swims, and you’ll also find an outdoor shower, a charcoal BBQ (charcoal not provided), and two private parking spaces.
The beachfront, wild and unfenced, begins right where the garden ends — a seamless extension into the sea.
AN IDEAL BASE TO EXPLORE MOOREA
The house enjoys a prime location for exploring the island. Just steps away is the Moorea golf course, offering oceanfront views for golf lovers. A short drive takes you to the stunning Cook and Opunohu Bays, perfect for kayaking, boating, or hiking.
By taking the inland road that connects both bays, you’ll reach the island’s volcanic heart, dotted with pineapple fields, fruit orchards, ranches, and scenic trails. From the summit, the Belvédère viewpoint delivers panoramic views that are simply breathtaking.
Adventurers will enjoy visiting sacred marae sites, exploring the Afareaitu waterfalls, or hiking the scenic Three Coconut Trees trail, which begins at the nearby agricultural school — also a great stop for local products and fresh juices.
ESSENTIALS & LOCAL GEMS
A small grocery store, just 100 meters from the house, provides basic necessities. For a wider selection, Maharepa village, 4 kilometers away, offers supermarkets, pharmacies, banks, the post office, and a few charming boutiques.
For dining, Golden Lake, just 2 kilometers away, serves generous local cuisine to eat in or take away. For a romantic lunch or dinner by the sea, Mahana restaurant in Papetoai is a favorite, especially known for its fresh Tahitian-style raw fish.
Most hotels on the island welcome outside guests — perfect for enjoying a sunset drink or a table with a view.
Welhome tip: Embrace the slow rhythm of island life. Start your day with a swim in the lagoon, explore Moorea’s natural wonders, enjoy a barefoot lunch by the water, and end your day with a peaceful evening under the stars.
Perfect for: nature lovers, families seeking authenticity, and travelers drawn to the raw beauty of a true Polynesian escape — best experienced barefoot, by the sea.
