One Word - WOW!
This is the first for a review. From the minute we stepped onto the island we felt so welcomed and so taken care of, love you Nir!! Such a fabulous experience. Can't wait to share with friends and family so they can come next.

What a great spot this place was! Lots of sea life and a short ride to the grocery store, etc. The property manager is very helpful and friendly. The snorkeling is fantastic, and along with multiple types of reef fish, we saw octopus, rays, reef sharks (on an excursion), eels, and jelly fish. We will definitely be back!

Great property for my family of 4. Host was great they gave us a phone and we rented a car from them. We saw sting rays, sea turtles, and fish on the deck. Full kitchen and AC in every room. Watched some nice sunsets.They had great communication with arriving and leaving they allowed us to check in on arrival at 9am and leave at 4pm. It also included a 2 person kayak some floating things and snorkel gear. If we go back it will be here.

Quiet and Enjoyable
The property managers Nir and Tiare were awesome and very attentive to our needs. A cell phone is provided for communication purposes, and they recommended a restaurant that featured a Polynesian show. The location is fairly central between Vaitape and Matira Beach. Just make sure you have a car. The water pressure and temperature was great. There is plenty of room for two couples, but one bathroom was kind of an issue. We got by with the kitchen tools and dishes, but there could have been more options. Included spices and kitchen staples are minimal. Be prepared to purchase everything needed to prepare your own meals. The appliances worked fine, but there is no dishwasher. There is a clothes washer, but we didn’t use it. The amenities in the bathroom were also minimal. If you want to be able to wash your hair, you will need to bring your own shampoo and conditioner. Soap is provided, but there is no soap dish or body wash. The air conditioning worked very well and kept the rooms as cool as we wanted them to be. The deck area is in the shade, and the dock that goes into the water, which is in the sun most of the day, is very small. If sitting or lying in the sun is your thing, you will have to go to a beach. If you are looking for a 5 star resort, this is not it. However, it is a very reasonably priced bungalow option with lots of privacy. Watching the fish, swimming, and snorkeling without leaving the property is a definite plus! We had a blast here!

This property was amazing!! The pictures don’t do it justice. We had the best vacation ever in Bora Bora and will hopefully go back soon. The hosts were great and provided us with all the information we needed before we arrived and the place is perfect for a couple or a family of 4. It was just my fiancée and I and we had lots of space. The place was clean. You will need a car to help you get around the island.

These bungalows are not part of a resort, so if you are looking for a resort style vacation, this is not for you. These bungalows are located on the north end of the island and most activities are located on the south end so a car is required. Some excursion companies will pick you up tho (by car or boat). The porch is perfect for enjoying dinner and the sunset. This bungalow is equipped with a kitchen and a washer (no dryer). You can snorkel and swim right off the porch area. Kayak available as well. The caretaker was very helpful in providing a rental car (at a much lower cost than Avis) and local cell phone for use around the island.

Great stay in Bungalow 2
Bungalow 2 is a 2 bedroom bungalow on the north end of the main island across the water from the airport. Richard (owner/host) and Nir (property manager) were both excellent to work with and offer great recommendations for places to eat, tours, etc. Nir was so nice and very knowledgeable, helpful and responsive. He is a pleasure to talk to and got us a discount on an awesome family-run snorkeling tour where we snorkeled with reef fish, black tip sharks and stingrays, eagle rays, manta rays, and lemon sharks. They even picked us up at the bungalow. He can also help you arrange a rental car, which you'll need. The bungalow is private, spacious, and well equipped. It's clean, comfortable, and looks just like the pictures. We loved the covered outdoor deck and easy access to the water with snorkeling right off the dock. The main island is relatively small so it's easy to get anywhere on the island in a 1/2 hour or less. We loved having the overwater bungalow experience at a fraction of the resort prices - having money to dine out, do a tour and enjoy a day pass at a nice resort. Also, the food on the main island is much more affordable with great options. Be sure to go to Matira beach - a long, beautiful, walkable beach on the south end of the island with great sunsets, good snorkeling, beautiful turquoise water, and several good food options. This was our first trip to Bora Bora and we loved it. Such a beautiful place with warm, friendly people. Thank you for a memorable stay!

Nice bungalow, needs some TLC
This bungalow is exactly as listed and the owners are very good with communication. The location is good for privacy but you only get sun in the afternoon on the small dock. The overall feel was great but it could do with a few upgrades such as new mattress and sheets. We stayed 8 days and could have used a change of sheets and newer towels. Bora Bora is beautiful and this was a good way to get an OWB without paying resort prices.

Un excellent séjour
Très bon séjour au Bungalow Two situé sur l'île principale. Les pieds dans l'eau, face à une vue à couper le souffle, on ne peut que féliciter Marlon Brando pour son bon goût. Merci à Tiare pour son accueil et à Nir pour la location de la voiture très facile à conduire et très propre. La maison en elle-même est bien agencée, vaste et agrémentée d'un gekko très actif en soirée 😅. La terrasse est hyper sympa pour y prendre notamment le petit déjeuner mais il n'y avait qu'un seul transat sans matelas (un peu dur...) et une sorte de lit pas vraiment confortable... et non deux transats équipés de matelas moelleux comme présentés sur les photos... Des équipements de snorkeling ou des fauteuils flottant, ainsi qu'un kayak sont à notre disposition et c'est très sympa. Quelques bémols toutefois : la propreté du matériel de cuisine, les couteaux notamment (sales et rouillés pour certains) ou les grilles du four graisseuses à notre arrivée. Celle des dessus de lit est également à revoir et l'un des lits de la seconde chambre est abîmé (trou) au niveau du sommier. La climatisation des chambres est hyper bruyante, c'est dommage... En dehors de ces quelques remarques, je ne peux que recommander le bungalow Two qui, idéalement situé, permet de visiter toute l'île et de découvrir ses habitants (ce que ne permettent pas les hôtels hors de prix situés sur un îlot)... Un excellent séjour, qui aurait pu être un séjour de rêve, à quelques détails près...

Fabulous location with great snorkeling off the deck!
Really enjoyed our stay here. We were in the water almost every day. Swimming to the left off the deck we saw clown fish in anemones, off to the right a bit further (around the headland) we saw manta rays a couple times. There"s even coral and fish (we even saw a moray eel) within a few meters of the house. That said, while the water was clear early morning, it got progressively cloudier later on in the day. It's quite an exposed location, so any wind will come whipping along the water. This meant we often didn't need the AC and just opened the windows and doors (we only saw mosquitoes occasionally in the land side bedroom). It also meant that on windier days it was hard to kayak as the wind was so fierce. Recommend bringing some kind of inflatable to tie to the deck and float around on. (Most of the inflatables provided were broken in some way). Also there was always (non invasive) activity out on lagoon to sit and watch - locals paddling by, tourist boats or local traffic. The house itself is as described by many others here - comfortable and functional. A couple of nits you should be aware of - the windows in the bedrooms rattled when the wind was strong (or occasionally when the AC was on). Also the house wasn't spotlessly clean, for example there were crumbs in the silverware drawer. We did also see one cockroach but other than that there weren't any other bugs/ants. Overall we had an amazing time here and highly recommend staying if you want to avoid the resorts

Bon séjour au condominium qui coûte largement moins chère qu’un pilotis en hôtel. merci à Tiare pour son accueil et pour la location de la voiture (aucun papier à fournir et clé sous le tapis pour le retour 😂). La maison manque d’équipement de cuisine basique : verres à pieds, des vrais couteaux, des ciseaux, un plat à four … et la propreté est à revoir notamment au niveau des ouvertures (a l’intérieur). Fallait pas ouvrir les rideaux … pour autant la vue était fantastique et la vie sous Marine très sympas. Mention spéciale au Cheen lee local 👍😂 (toujours ouvert).

Our Honeymoon
This was the ideal location for my wife and I to celebrate our honeymoon. We enjoyed relaxing in the water outside the property and even got dropped off at the dock after one of our scheduled tours. Easy access to the local super markets and less than 20 minute drive to pretty much anywhere on the island. Nir and Tiare made pickup/drop off very easy and helped us to schedule all of our activities during our stay. Highly recommend booking this property for an unforgettable trip to one of the most beautiful places in the world.

Perfect bungalow in a great location
We really enjoyed our stay at the bungalow. We loved being able to hop in the water off the small dock and snorkel for hours. The location was perfect, very quiet, but still close enough to Vaitape to go shopping or go eat dinner. Nir and Tiare were perfect hosts. We would absolutely recommend this place (my friends are now going there in April from my recommendation) and would love to come back.

This was my first time in a bungalow. I would say that it is ideal "beach / home combo" experience: swim, take a shower right there on the deck, have a snack and then relax either in the sun or under the roof. It wasn't humid at all even without air conditioning (which was working perfectly when needed) The manager Nir was very helpful with tours, dinging and other information about local culture and traditions. We were given the local phone for communication with Nir. It was really helpful. It was really great and relaxing vacation. People here always wear a smile :)

Don't book a resort bungalow, book this place.
We rented a car from Nir, the property manager, must have for the island. Place was easy to find. Large place with great back deck overlooking lagoon and sunsets. We stopped a local market with good selection of food. Cooked two nights and had restuarants pick us up for great dinners. Spent our days at Matira Beach and eat at local's Snack Matira, 15 minute drive and no one is there! It was windy each day at the bungalow, so we did not go in the water or kayak. Best way to experience Bora Bora. Do not be held hostage at a resort with their shuttle schedules.

Great place with "local's" feel
We (me, hubby, and daughters - 19yo & 18yo) are celebrating my husband and my 25-year wedding anniversary. My husband and I celebrated our 20th in Bora Bora and ever since, I wanted our girls to have that experience too. Last time we spent the entire trip at the Conrad Hilton resort in an over the water bungalow. This time we chose to stay here for 4 nights with the girls, and then 4 nights at the Conrad resort (us in an over the water bungalow and the girls in their own place). I'm so glad we did it this way because it gave us very different but symbolic experiences at each of the two stays. At this VRBO we really loved that we watched THREE octopuses hunt for a meal as we stood on the raised walkway about 10 steps from the front door! (we never saw any at the Conrad even while snorkeling) More magic happened when we got to watch a family of 4 eagle rays, at surface level, come right past our back lower deck while all 4 of us were standing right there! We loved that when the neighboring VRBO guests vacated they came over and offered us all their water toys and unopened food, it made us feel a bit like we were the locals with real neighbors. We loved it when the neighbor across the street (a local who spoke very little English) saw our two girls trying in vain to crack open a coconut, and kindly came over and offered "no no, come come..." and walked them over to a coconut cracking set-up he had fashioned in his front yard and showed them how it was done! I would have assumed tourists were not warmly greeted (Hawaiian "stink eye" and all) but that was completely not the case here. The locals we encountered were very friendly. Also a huge asset was Nir, the property manager. He is awesome and made our vacation so much better than it otherwise would have been, by among other things, scheduling a private snorkeling adventure for just our family, where we stood in the ocean (yes STOOD, about half a mile from the closest shore) surrounded by black tip sharks and sting rays, which we "petted/held" for lack of a better word!! Also we got a car from Nir which gave us the ability to explore the island. Another thing is that it was super convenient to have a kitchen and washing machine. Also this unit has 3 mini splits and they did an excellent job keeping the heat and humidity down. All in all, it created fabulous memories, for which I will forever be grateful to Richard, the owner for choosing to VRBO this wonderful property!

Great OWB Condo at a reasonable rate.
We had such an amazing stay at Marlon Brando's over the water bungalow condominium. The property was clean, fully equipped kitchen, washer (no drier, but hang drying clothes made it a easy) and accomodated 2 adults with 2 children (agess 5 and 9) comfortably. Having a fully equipped kitchen with a bbq grill on the balcony definitely saved us money without having to go out to eat often. only downside, condo is on the north side of the island and can get pretty windy during the winter and rainy season. Other than that, I would highly recommend this condo to all my family and friends. Thank you Richard, Seiko and also to Nir our property manager. This was a vacation of a lifetime we will cherish forever as a family.

Fantastic Location for Family of Four
This is our fifth visit to Polynesia, but the first time with our kids and away from the usual luxury resorts. Booking with VBRO turned out to be a great decision for our family! Marlon Brando #2 was a beautiful, spacious overwater bungalow with good onsite snorkeling and swimming. Within kayaking distance was *fabulous* snorkeling--across the lagoon just before the reef, and closer in "manta ray cove" to the northeast. Bungalow was spacious for four and had great island decor. It was far enough from town to feel secluded, but close enough to grocery stores, food trucks and restaurants. We enjoyed watching the boats go by while lounging on our deck. The kitchen had everything we needed and the washing machine was a plus (line dry). Excellent WiFi with a Smart TV that had Netflix and Amazon apps. This unit allowed our family to access this amazing island while being completely independent and socially distanced. Car rental from property manager Nir was convenient and cheaper than local agencies. Highly recommend the full-day Lagoonarium experience which included the best and most varied traditional Polynesian meal of the week. We hiked on our own to several of the WWII cannon sites, a big hit with our teenage son. Can't wait to come back again.

An exceptional place to stay!
Staying at Marlon's overwater bungalow was an unforgettable experience and a fabulous place to recharge (thanks Richard and Seiko!)! I was greeted in Vaitape by Tiare who provided me with the keys, directions, and a phone to use while on the island. This was useful when arranging last minute activities with tour operators and Nir was also super resourceful whenever any questions came up. The mornings were serene and yet energizing – waking up to amazing views and the sound of lapping waves was awesome! A great place to "work remotely" (sarcasm) during the day and then take in breathtaking sunsets at the end of it. Highly recommend staying here if you get the chance!!

Feb. 2020 at Marlon Brando Hide-Away #2
House was as advertised. Large and well appointed. Prop. manager Nir, was extremely helpful with anything we needed. He also arranged our rental car (his), at good rate. We liked the location, away from all the resorts. The swim deck got a fair amount of use! Bike rental from avis at Viatape, for ride around island. Matira beach well worth a visit. Saw a Manta in the shallows. People very friendly, and spoke english well enough. Chin-Lee grocery in town has whatever needed for fixing meals at the home - great for families. (has good meat dept.) Bring along a sharp knife, (a sharp folding type all you need). Otherwise, kitchen is well stocked. We never used the wide screen TV, so unplugged it and put on floor in corner out of way, so we could watch varied boat and canoe traffic instead ("tahitian TV"). There is good wifi. Plenty of towels. A washing machine too! Just bring reef shoes & snorkeling stuff, and you'll be all set. We planned on doing some hikes, but Feb. was rainy season. Trails too steep for wet conditions (OK if a technical climber!) Very relaxing. Quiet. Peaceful. A good value for a place that can sleep 4 people. Note: I had read other reviews critical of : 1.) a hard to slide door to the deck. It's NOT that hard. And actually is a safety feature if you have small kids who might wander out on the deck/into water un-noticed. 2.) The decor described as being too dark. Well, the dark curtains help filter glare when bright sun reflects off the water in late afternoon if home and indoors. Otherwise we just had them open all the time. So, IMO, no need to change a thing.

Stayed in one of Richard’s nearby units five years ago. Made this trip back to French Polynesia specifically to stay here again. Unit is wonderful - no need to leave it if you choose not to. Most relaxation we experience anywhere in the world. Wonderful snorkeling off of deck, well equipped kitchen, fantastic views, comfortable bed. Nir, the local manager is a jewel - always friendly and quickly responsive. Don’t know why anyone would stay elsewhere on Bora Bora.

Wonderful Stay in Bungalow #2
Property is as depicted on the site. Spacious bungalow with a great shower/water pressure. Main door wall/sliding door is VERY hard to open, mainly used the master bedroom to go in & out to deck. Many reviews mentioned the mattresses a the two single beds have new mattresses in and are nice and firm. Richard (owner) and Nir (property manager) were both easy to communicate with and very accommodating. Highly recommend staying here & we even stayed at the Four Seasons one day/night prior to staying here and can honestly say we enjoyed this better. It’s great to be able to have a car and explore and have your own groceries in the house!

Loved our stay at the Marlon Brando's bungalow
We had an amazing experience at the bungalow. The bungalow is big - we were a family of 4 and the kids had lots of fun. It was super-relaxing to wake up to the sound of water splashing against the pillars. .. And the best part of the trip was Nir. Nir is an amazing property manager and he was always there to help us.

Perfect Vacation
The overwater bungalow we stayed in was perfect for our family. It’s located in a small quiet neighborhood on the beach. Very quiet. Everything was comfortable and clean. The view is beautiful! You can swim right off the bungalow and also use the kayak that is provided. My daughters fed the fish right out their bedroom window and from the bungalow’s deck. It was great having a kitchen as you can cook your own meals. Nir is the manager for the bungalow, he is the best!! So friendly and attentive. He met us upon arrival with the rental car which is brand new and was very comfortable. We really enjoyed meeting and talking to Nir. He is knowledgeable and can help you with any questions about Bora Bora. Being on the main island and having a car made it so easy. It was nice to be around the local Tahitians as they are so friendly and relaxed. Having the car made it easy to get around, you need it to go everywhere especially the grocery stores and shops. We drove to Matira beach to swim almost every day.
