Good location close to Papeete, great pool with an amazing view of Moorea, beautiful grounds. Staff were friendly, excellent service. Rooms and bathrooms are getting a little tired but were clean and comfy. Get the room with a sea view, it’s worth it.
Easy access to and from the airport. The room was a lot more spacious than I expected. With separate bedroom and a long balcony with ocean view. The hotel ground floor was like a botanical garden, with a variety of plants. Two issues, the toilet was quite high in the room and the restaurant staff during lunch did not remove my plate after I had finished eating. They kept walking past my table and tended to other guests. On checkout I had to question the bill in regards to the VIP access discount. Thanks to Laura for sorting it out.
Loved the property and rooms were in good condition. Needed a day room since we were leaving at 6:30 p.m. but property made no effort to allow early earlier check-in than 2:00p even though rooms were vacated and cleaned much earlier.
Nice apartment with view of the ocean. Good snorkeling and swimming pool. Room deco is nice. There were ants after we left the food on the kitchen counter over night.
I totally adored the staff; so friendly and helpful, always suggesting sights, even calling taxis, all with a smile. Breakfast was amazing, especially the fruit panacotta! The room was okay, a bit dated and smelled a bit musty when we got there.
Beautiful hotel with pool and lagoon access, and perfect for a short stay upon arrival to Papeete! Only negative point was the dogs barking as of 3am right next to our room on ground floor. 1 week would have been difficult due to the dog issue.
We loved this resort. The staff were kind, there's everything you need and it was lovely. We rented a car which was also easy to come and go from here. We highly recommend staying here.
Staff were very friendly and helpful. More dining food choices would be nice. The activity center was very convenient. A larger beach area is preferred. Overall a good stay!
