"Nice clean hotel, close to down town, port and shops. The Jr suite looked like it has a kitchen in the photos, but there is not even a microwave in the room! There is a refrigerator and kitchen sink but no kitchen supplies or means to cook. Other than that it was nice, however the hotel could do a little more updating - many places where paint is missing or discolored, and tiles broken, and the spa was cold not hot! The Jr suite was listed as Seaside view, but all you could see were the businesses, apartments, and crappy houses in the area - terrible view!"

"Stayed 6 nights in an overwater bungalow as part of a long trip to the islands of both Hawaii and French Polynesia. Service provided by our assigned concierge, Kea, was better than any butler service I have had over the years at other luxury hotels. The property is lovely and well kept. The bungalow was spacious, updated, and clean. Unfortunately there were a number of things that diminished the overall experience. First, the noise. I’ve stayed in overwater accommodations previously in The Maldives, Indonesia, and Colombia. I am currently at the Intercontinental La Moana in Bora Bora in an over water bungalow. It is serene and wonderful. I anticipated a similar experience of serenity and tranquility in Tahiti. But, instead, I had to listen to very loud music and announcements that went well past 10PM at night. Having traveled the world over the past 35 years I always have silicon ear plugs to dull the noise. Even with the earplugs, however, it was still loud. Some of the noise came from nearby but much of it was from the Intercontinental. In French Polynesia the year round humidity is between 80 and 90 percent. The average daily temperature hovers around 30. The fans in the dining areas were not sufficient to provide a comfortable dinning experience — even in shorts, tank top, and flip flops. The food was mediocre including at La Lotus. WiFi in room was ok but was not available in the gym and other areas of the property. This hotel pales in comparison to many other resorts."

"We were really enjoyed every minute our vacation! The staff were excellent! I would like to say special thanks for help my request ( birthday surprise) to Maima. She did a great job to prepare my husband surprise present. The room was spotless the restaurant was great. The bar was fun,many nights were live music on. The beach and the ocean were clean and gorgeous. The place was overall our expectations. We spent more than a week in the bungalow. Highly recommend this place."

"Honestly, I was a single guy at this resort. I am soooo relaxed after just a few days. Everyone was amazing, made me feel welcome and well taken care of."

"The room was clean and modern and very convenient to Papeete center and ferry terminal. Great place to stay!"

"Both Gaelle and Cecile made our stay seamless and very enjoyable. The apartment was pristinely clean, AC worked well, balcony had plenty of furniture and a beautiful view of Moorea. Washer and dryer were big pluses and the dishwasher also simplified kitchen cleanup. Shaded parking below the building, as well as a space outside if you prefer. Walking distance to the food trucks, and only about a five or 10 minute drive to Vaiava beach, which had very nice snorkeling and an artisanal ice cream truck! Carrefour grocery was a short drive away, as well as the Intercontinental which had a nice happy hour on the patio. Overall was an excellent stay and would certainly recommend highly."

"Dated Meals restricted to certain times."

"The hotel appears to be fairly new. The room smelt of fresh paint, clean and a good size. The bed was comfortable, and the bathroom and kitchenette area was a good size. The location is approximately 15 minute taxi drive from the airport, which was perfect, especially with an early morning flight. The only disappointment is no onsite restaurant. Recommendations were suggested by hotel staff, with a mobile pizza stand just next door. If arriving late at night and travelling alone, you won't have far to walk."

"Location and view from property were great (about 3 miles to “downtown” area). Follow directions and photos from host to find place or you won’t! Good kitchen amenities with induction stove/oven, microwave, coffee maker, toaster, and all cooking necessities. Hot water in kitchen sink is beyond scalding so beware! Dryer did not work right. Parking is tight but accommodates 1 medium size vehicle. Road leading to property is rough but our Citroen made it but not paved all the way. A/C is a mini-split in bedroom and efficiently cools room. Overall, property is comfortable but needs some much needed general upkeep & maintenance (some of the windows, dryer, Pool is not heated and more of a soaking pool and needs some resurfacing on bottom & the plants cut way back as view is blocked of Moorea mountains from pool. Host responded quickly to all questions."
