We absolutely loved this place.. 8 of us stayed 3 nights in 2 bungalows prior to picking up our catamaran at Sunsail. Arrangements were all made via email and were seamless. We were picked up at the airport, taken to the grocery store to stock up on food and then dropped off at these cute bungalows that were on a... More

We stayed 3 nights at this great resort. The bungalows are right on the water, awesome sunset views. There's no beach but you walk along a long jetty to get to where the swimming is. Great snorkeling right off the jetty. We missed a mantra ray by 1 week!! The rooms are clean and comfortable with lots of kitchen supplies... More

we had a few days before a sailing trip to spend anywhere on the islands and we chose the Sunset Beach motel after reading reviews in Trip Advisor. It is an incredible property at an incredible price for French Polynesia. We had our own little cottage with kitchen, bath, bedroom, sitting area, and wonderful front porch overlooking a small beach... More

We stayed 2 nights in this place and it's amazing; we loved the individual bungalows right on the water, each bungalow comes with a kitchenette. Breakfast can be ordered to be served right on the front porch, should you choose. The staff was very knowledgeable and friendly, they spoke fluent English and answered all our questions patiently. There's incredible snorkeling... More

We had a night in this hotel prior to picking up a yacht from the marina a few minutes down the road. I was not expecting anything from this hotel and was stunned when we arrived. There are great views of Bora Bora from the bungalows. This is the cheapest of the hotels we stayed in and one that I... More

The Sunset beach Motel is a truly wonderful place to stay. The price is very reasoanble for a house keeping cottage on the water in French Polynesia. Although, as can be seen from the reviews, many of the guests are French, the owner and his wife speak perfect English. The cottages are very roomy (though the bathroom area is a... More

Sunset Beach has a site for camping which we stayed in. As it was off-peak season we had the camping area to ourselves which was good as there was a convenient shelter that allowed us to pitch our tent on sand under a roof - keeping us dry and safe from falling coconuts. It seemed to be normal for the... More

We had a super stay at this quiet, spacious, tranquil property. Great memories! Despite being out of town, we were correctly advised how to sightsee. On the day we wanted to drive round the island, the car was dropped off and picked up from our accomodation. When we went out for dinner a courtesy car was sent to collect us... More

Wow! We really loved Sunset Beach. We stayed four nights. It was our first stop on our FP itinerary and it really allowed us to recover from over twenty hours in airports and begin to acclimate to FP. The accommodations were clean, simple and economical. The staff were cheerful and very helpful...they even arranged to send us our passports to... More
