There's no getting around the fact that overwater bungalows are expensive, and websites and brochures do the best job they can at showing things in their best light. But since they all make them sound so nice it's hard to be confident that the resort you choose is as wonderful as it's made out to be. For that reason we are collecting the best home-made video tours of every resort possible, so you'll be able to see exactly what the rooms look like when real people stay there.
Recently we highlighted the best Bora Bora overwater bungalow videos, and here is a set featuring the 4 deluxe resorts in Moorea plus 2 more in nearby Tahiti. The Moorea overwater bungalows are in the same luxury category of all but the top few Bora Bora overwater bungalows, while the two Tahiti bungalow resorts are larger family hotels that are quite reasonably priced.
Im looking for an over water bungalow for 12 people (include 3 children). This is a family travelling for a milestone birthday in May 2020. Looking to stay for 6-10 days.
Mildred,
Unfortunately, there are no overwater bungalows that allow more than 6 people, and even those are extremely expensive. Most normal overwater bungalows allow 3 guests per room and a few of them allow 4 guests per room. So your cheapest option would be to find one of the places that allows 4 guests per room and book 3 separate bungalows. Sorry it’s not better news. -Roger
