Exceptional location for Kite Surfing (Pro's / Experts) with great accessibility from hotel - directly infront. Fabulous massive pool as well as sandy beach to enjoy (snorkels complimentary use). Close to nearby islands, 15min water taxi. Sunset magnificent over the water! Sunloungers for pool AND beach - amazing!

The staff was lazy not professional and didn't care ,our air conditioning was set on 22 degrees all night so sleeping was a struggle, the roof cleaning service was hit and miss ,had to chase them for toilet paper znd clean towels, i would not go back to this hotel or recommend it , the food and drink prices was a rip off the actual rooms and pool was the best things the hotel has going for it .most people we spoke to had the same problems with their air conditioning and some was leaving because of it not working

Okay with potential to be better
Property seems to be a mixed use property with many local events occurring here using the same facilities. Crowd control from events is limited with drunk function attendees able to wonder around and make noise in the early hours. For me the twice daily exercise class using the one pool of the resort was annoying as was the removal of chair mattresses by the beach and pool at 5pm….sunsets at 6.30.

I am here on a solo trip, I haven’t left yet but this resort is the most safest, relaxing, quiet accomodating place, they give you afew perks during your stay. I don’t want to leave, I had booked this place for 3 nights and booked another place for 3 nights once I checked out I instantly couldn’t leave I had to cancel the other hotel (which btw was the worse accommodation I walked into) booked my stay back at the Le Meridian and I’m so happy to be back same day as check out 😆 no regrets I lost money but gained this experience. The services here also makes staying here even better, the short walk to town and a 2 minute walk to the walk to watch the sunset was just a blessing in itself I will definitely be back next year 👌

Well situated for a stay in Noumea, and easy walking distance to cafes etc.. as eating in the hotel is very expensive.. and a bit average.. Also close to Car hire. Hotel has a good pool and beach area ( although closed for swimming due to Sharks!).. the sea.. not the pool !! Staff were generally helpful and friendly

This is a nice place to stay with a sea breeze but the little things are missing. No coffee in room, that type of thing. Very expensive food and drink and at the casino which is next door (not sure if it's the same owner) they are definitely serving 'local' alcohol from Smirnoff bottles.

Nice property with well furnished modern rooms. Hotel grounds and pool were well maintained and restaurants were all very good. All the staff were extremely polite, helpful and bi-lingual. On-site free parking was great and some nearby shops and restaurants in walking distance. Unfortunately the beach area was closed during our stay which was out of the hotels control due to Noumeas blanket beach closures in the short term, but the water was calm and inviting.

A decent 8 out of 10 stars. The hotel itself is in good shape and the rooms arent as bad as you might think from the other reviews. The first room we were in (which was in Level 6) was musty but they changed it immediately when we brought this up. The second room was fine. Lacking in some five star amenities but it's ok. The service itself was difficult as no one really picked up the phone but when they did, it was fine. The pool was too cold but otherwise would be great. It's a short walk to Anse Vate and there is a shortcut via the beach or through the neighbouring property which we discovered that makes it super close to dining options. Breakfast was very good and can't be faulted.

Unfulfilled potential - looks like a 5 star, but acts like a 3 star. The Good - close to Anse Vata, direct beach access, and set in beautiful grounds with a large pool. The rooms & beds are large and comfortable, and we enjoyed the balcony overlooking the pool. Overall it was very quiet and safe. Great breakfast buffet and huge choice on offer in a very nice setting. The Bad - the service. We specifically booked Le Meridien to use the large pool as swimming at beaches is banned. However it was closed due to unexpected maintenance issues. There was no communication about this. We eventually complained and were given resort credit and offered to use the hotel next door. However this had ongoing construction noise so wasn't a good solution. Nothing was pro-actively communicated to us, so if we had not complained, would never have known about anything. The hotel fire alarm went off late at night, we got stuck in a lift once, and were told the Fare restaurant was open in the evenings - it wasn't. The sole choice was the L'Hippo restaurant, well out of our budget. We had to use room service, and order at reception as room phone didn't connect anywhere. The concierge and tour desk were also closed. The hotel has the facilities to be excellent but only if they are open and managed. Individual staff were friendly and helpful. Communication is key, and there was zero forthcoming by management. We will not go there again and cannot recommend it unless things change.

Would have liked better cleaning with more periodical spring clean and check the quality. Toilet was not as cleaned as it should be when we checked in. They seem to have interconnecting rooms but elected not to give this to us and had us separated by another room. Our friends (party of 3) had another room which would fit 4 people as it was almost twice the size with a separate lounge (and lounge bed) with kitchenette (sink, dishwasher, microwave and fridge only). We have older kids (over 12) so we had to book two rooms. Bed nice and firm but pillow a bit thick to my liking. It is the furthest hotel from Lemon Bay or Anse Vata so either walk or take bus. Taxi is cheaper than them ordering a private transfer. To be honest, probably not worth the money and would chose somewhere else to stay. Beach front location is not a priority if you want to stay in Noumea and save money. Cooking facilities would keep your cost down as things are not cheap in New Caledonia. While not their own doing, pool is cooler in July (winter time) and beach was closed for swimming. Slightly windy end of the beach and suited for kite surfing etc. Other side which share with another hotel is more wind sheltered.

Beautify facilities, very hekpful staff and overall a great stay. Only downside was the noise from some renovation work at the hotel starting at 7.30am on a Friday and the day prior in the afternoon a jackhammer being used under our room, so no sieata for me (1st world problems heh).

Tired. Good. Overpriced. Needs work.
We like this property overall, and the initial impression on arrival is very pleasant indeed. In this stay, though, there were quite a lot of BUTs. In dealing with all the problems I brought to her, Chloe was on the front desk was excellent to deal with, utterly pleasant and polite and got things done. Lena too was helpful in the 2x my partner dealt with her. Some of the issues with the hotel were: Housekeeping. Why not deliver facecloths consistently? A pain. Needed to make a phone call. They need to follow a checklist. Rubber seal on bottom of shower door old and dirty. Construction deterioration on outside of left wing. Mould inside upper two levels of left wing. Messy rooftops and ground area visible from level three of right wing. My massage was great but my partner’s was a total disappointment at any price especially $NZ250/75min. At that price you expect the moon, not someone virtually waiving their hands over you. She walked out part way. Prices. NZ$500 per night. The quality and condition needs to be much higher for this. Massage. All options extremely expensive Food & beverage. All very expensive. That’s partly a New Caledonia thing and partly this hotel. $45 for a burger and fries?!!! WHAT!! On the plus side: Hamam, very nice. ($45 though, should be included, when rooms $500 a night). Chloe Pool, bar, restaurant were all very pleasing, and the number one benefit of this property. I loved the pool. Pina Coladas were good.

Very friendly and staff. The property is at the very end of the peninsula, so is a bit of a walk into the little town of Anse Vata, but a welcome forced exercise! Plenty of options to sit by the pool and beach too.
