I'm going to Tahaa pearl beach and Sofitel Motu BB and Beachcomber Moorea 3 nights each. Should i just skip Moorea altogether? Those 2 islands sound perfect enough, and i hear Moorea resembles hawaii..... Is 3 night in BB and Tahaa to short?

In my opinion skipping Moorea, if you've never been there before, is a huge mistake. Moorea is far better than Hawaii....and without the crowds of people. There is a bit more to do and see on Moorea also.

Three nights on an island would be my minimum. You will be doing more traveling with three islands in nine days, but either way will be fine. Moorea is more like Hawaii than BB, but it is also different in many ways.

Well you share the same lagoon with Raiatea and it's only a stone's throw away. We really enjoyed the people. Cool dive right off the Pearl Beach (Nordby wreck). So you'll get three islands. Moorea is very pretty but the most touristed we found.

My husband and I liked Moorea better than Bora Bora, and when we return someday (and can't stay for 12 days) we plan on only returning to Moorea. Just a personal preference I'm sure, but the lush green mountains of Moorea are quite beautiful. The lagoon is more striking in Bora Bora, but that's most noticeable only on the flight in! The vegetation in Moorea was amazing!

Skipper I was happy to hear someone else voice my sentiments regarding Moorea and Bora Bora. We feel the same way, we love Moorea and will be returning there this coming August for the 3rd time. We're also doing Huahine and Rangiroa but each time we return Moorea is always included.
