Pearl Beach Resort, Mo'orea

This gorgeous boutique resort sits in the grounds of the first hotel built on Mo'orea and is steeped in Polynesian history and tradition.

A choice of over-water bungalows along with beach and garden bungalows and 30 separate garden rooms make up the resorts stylish accommodation. All rooms at the property are smartly furnished with private sun deck or balcony.

Pearl Beach Resort also features an on-site dive centre, gorgeous infinity pool and the superb Manea Spa, offering traditional Polynesian treatments and massages.

Two fantastic restaurants serve delicious Polynesian-influenced cuisine and the poolside Autera'a bar is a great place to relax and enjoy a drink from the extensive cocktail menu.

We like: The overwater bungalows with direct access to a crystal-clear lagoon

Best for: A traditional Polynesian welcome
