Villa Corallina on Motu Fareone

If you like big hotels, lots of people around and an ordinary vacation, then Moorea is not for you. Moorea receives fewer tourists in 1 year then Hawaii gets in 1 week! There are no mega resorts on Moorea, few tourists to be seen: you will have the entire magical environment basically to yourself.
In 2000, Condé Nast Traveler Magazine rated Moorea as the most beautiful island in the world. Its incredible beauty encompasses the sand-fringed islets sitting on the reef, the stunning multi-hued lagoon that surrounds the island, the celebrated Cook's Bay, the pineapple and vanilla plantations: it is a true outdoor lover's paradise. Moorea is that island getaway you have always dreamed of, and Villa Corallina is hidden in the most beautiful place on this Garden of Eden.
Don’t expect restaurants, swimming pools, shopping malls, discos or loud motor sports here – you just won’t get any. There are no roads here, only coconut groves, white coral’s sand beaches, sunsets that set fire to endless horizons and marine worlds too spectacular to capture in words.
This is where you really do get away from it all. Your Robinson Crusoe dream can be realized here.
