The cleaning was ok, but not perfect. The tea towels were only changed once in the 6 days I was there and the dish washing sponges should have been replaced a few months ago. The drain in the shower was blocked, so you would stand in water to your ankles during your shower. The fridge was not as cold as a fridge should be.

Easy communication with the hosts, fully equipped kitchen, good and spacious common areas with plenty of sofas and table-chairs. Helpful with ideas for things to do in the area and it's possible to rent bikes at the hostel.

The room is tiny with no space for stuff. The bathroom is inside and the bungalows outside.

Good location and big open spaces to share with everyone

The place had a lot to offer however it wasn’t quite there yet on the hygienic side. We indeed found quite a lot of maggots in the kitchen, a cockroach in the shower and a weird residue (maybe cat remains?) on the floor. I do believe that my experience would’ve been better without these different elements.

I really enjoyed the communal atmosphere of the dormitory. The faculties (lounge area, outside patio and outdoor kitchen) were very pleasant to come back to, after a long day at the beach!

It was a little dark but the good thing about it it was nice cold during the day.

Very nice owners and place. Thank you.

The cleaning could be better. Maybe it's because it's tropical area a lot of bugs are around. Also it's little noisy, you can hear roosters and dogs barking all the night. (but I heard everywhere else on this island is roughly same

Staff are extremely friendly and helpful. location is just right for ppl want to go to Gump station. You can even get a diving discount by staying here. ppl are friendly and I enjoyed my time here chatting with them

Very quiet location.

Despite the occasional cleanliness challenges and insects, the gracious hosts created a welcoming atmosphere, turning it into a positive opportunity to forge connections and share unique experiences with others in the shared space.

The outdoor bathrooms were not the cleanest and our group did encounter a few cockroaches. This was not totally unexpected but was something to note.

The location was located right by our main point of interest in Mo'orea and was a great value home base. There was plenty of space to sit indoors and outdoors, and there were enough bathrooms for all the people there.

Stayed in November 2023

Mattress had no support and sagged. Shower had low water pressure and there was no hot water in the mornings. Bathroom lighting was dim and had many mosquitos.

Inexpensive hostel accommodation. Good location on the island. Good spacing between the single beds. Mosquito netting over each bed. Clothes line in the courtyard to dry clothes.

Dorm rooms are located in a separate building, with basic and not very clean kitchen and bathroom.

Located near Cook and Opunohu bay, friendly environment, jazz evening, moscito nets and fans, option to arrange a massage.

Dorms are not in the main building, but little bit down the street. I was very suprised for that. Stuffy sink in the bathroom for the whole week.

Very well equiped kitchen, bike rental. I had once dinner bufet from Isa and it was very tasty. Isa and Maud are great.

All good. A solid stay.

Clean, spacious, comfortable

My stay at the Fare Om was lovely. The staff was kind, everything was clean and I appreciated to experience the authentic and chill polynesian style. Maud is a very kind host, she offered me a drive when I needed and she remembered for small staff even how I'm drinking my coffee:) This hostel definitely worth of money!

Stayed in October 2023

They have run out of wifi data in the dorms and the mobile data is pretty bad at that location as well

Stayed in September 2023

Not very clean and pans and pots very carbonised. Unclean kettle. Lots of room for improvement

Good for backpackers

Stayed in September 2023

In the private room the curtains only covered half of the window so there wasn’t a lot of privacy. The bathrooms weren’t clean at most times.

Nice atmosphere if you like to socialize and connect with people! Friendly and welcoming staff :)

Stayed in August 2023

Could have better cups and plates. Maybe I could have been informed about how to hire a bike or a scooter as it was a long way to walk to places. The entrance can be better with the dogs put out the back

Friendly people, relaxed atmosphere and nice spacious room. It had clean water and good refrigeration

Meeting wonderful travellers. Good to have bikes to rent.

I thought it would be more of a cultural experince.

The hosts were very helpful and kind.

Stayed in July 2023

There was one indoor bathroom and two outdoor bathrooms, however the outdoor bathrooms didn’t seem to get hot water for the showers and the toilets didn’t have toilet seats, so everyone would use the one indoor bathroom. Also, the kitchen doesn’t have a microwave.

Good location for hiking (close to the trailhead for Rōtui and not too difficult to walk the Caldera de Moorea Loop track from here). Very friendly staff and the meals they offer are well-balanced, nutritious and very delicious.

Stayed in July 2023

Could be a bit cleaner, but hey it's a tropical island, and really cheap

Friendly and helpful host (that cooks well, ask her for dinner!), bed is okay but a bit short (only 2m), location okay.

Stayed in February 2023

The room was clean initially was not cleaned during my stay there. The floors in the room were not swept once during my 6 night stay and a small cleaning at least once during my stay would have been appreciated.

The staff were very kind and friendly. It is very simple, tucked away off the main road, and very quiet. It was good value in a nice part of the island. Bed was comfortable. Cash only or bank transfer (no CC accepted).

Stayed in December 2022

Friendly atmosphere, staff, and other guests. Fare Om is a great community of travellers of a wide range of ages. Definitely recommend, not just for great prices but also ideal location on the island.
