🐚 The history of MotuMauu & its marine ecosystem

A past rooted in the pearl of the Pacific

Before becoming a rare pearl to be acquired, Motu Mauu was a pearl-farming site, steeped in the traditions of French Polynesia. On its calm waters, generations have worked to cultivate the black pearl, a symbol of prestige and elegance throughout the world.
Today, the remains of this activity give the motu a unique heritage dimension, ideal for hosting an exceptional project combining history, luxury and nature.

In the heart of French Polynesia, MotuMauu is much more than an island:

It is a world apart, rich in history, wild nature and infinite inspirations.

In the past, this land was home to a pearl farm, a legacy of ancestral know-how.

Black pearls, symbols of prestige in the Pacific, were cultivated there with patience and respect.

This past gives the motu a precious, authentic, rare dimension.

Even today, nature reigns supreme.

Tall coconut trees, unspoiled flora, fine sand bathed in turquoise waters...

Everything here exudes purity.

No development. No pollution.

Only the promise of a new beginning.

Around the island, the waters are home to exceptional marine treasures.

Whether for snorkeling or scuba diving, the lagoons of MotuMauu reveal vibrant coral reefs, multi-colored tropical fish, majestic rays and wildlife still untouched by tourists.

But what makes this motu truly unique is its proximity to the only vineyards in French Polynesia, located in Rangiroa.

Grown on coral, these exceptional wines tell the story of an extraordinary terroir. A global rarity, they can be paired with a prestigious wine tourism project linked to the motu.

MotuMauu is therefore much more than a land:


It is a preserved natural setting
A discreet but precious cultural heritage
A territory of expression to build the exception
And an infinite source of inspiration, between land, sea and vines.

Create the exception. Own the unique.

MotuMauu is much more than an island.
It's a blank canvas, ready to welcome your boldest vision.


A pure, timeless land to build your personal paradise.

The opportunity is here. Seize it.
