    Best hotel in Moorea imho. Great staff and ideal location. Will definitely come back.

    Wifi dropped frequently in the room and around the swimming pool area.

    The staff was excellent. Especially Teharati, Timi and Andy! They took great care of us. The breakfast is amazing too. Location in Maharepa is perfect since it's the heart of Moorea. The best diving center in Moorea is located inside the hotel, which is very convenient for divers.

    I thought the room i had signed up for was bigger, and I felt that the room we got wasnt the same as what I thought I had paid for.

    We really enjoyed the facilities which were kept in very nice condition.

    There is some ongoing work dome at the hotel, which we were not aware of and we should be informed. Not a big issue but some parts of the hotel were closed.

    Delicious breakfast with belly good selection of hot and cold foods. Amazing infinity pool. Fantastic SPA. Very very helpful staff (especially Maeva from reception, she was there for us to help with some issues we had, translated our queries, and listen when we had a bad day)

    Idyllic lil spot to enjoy. One night we had the bungalow on the water...was magic. Loved jumping off of our private balcony into the reef...we had a deep part of the reef too ...loads of beautiful marine life. Loved the pool and restaurant too ...soooo good 🤩

    Not much. Expensive but expected for Tahiti. Sometimes other guests are noisy but hotel cannot control that.

    This place is amazing. We had an overwater bungalow and you could access the reef straight off your own pontoon. So many fish, lots of coral all right underneath you. If you leave your light on at night there will be heaps of fish under the bungalow to see, we said goodnight to the reef shark every day before bed. The villas are clean, comfortable, and the facilities are good. The grill across the road is good and great restaurant Rudys a short walk away too. Would go back.

    On our second to last night (30 Nov) we returned to have dinner in the main restaurant and was extremely disappointed by the two entree's we received. Unlike the tuna tartar we'd had a couple of days prior this time it had more vegetables than tuna, and the tuna was stringy. The second entree was the truffle mushroom risotto, which tasted like rice pudding. It felt like, it was the end of the night so the kitchen and serving staff seem disinterested. With three people sharing the entrees and given the quality was low and the price high we choose to change to the bar menu for our mains and got a simple pizza. (despite this slight hiccup we enjoyed every other night/dinner/cocktail/lunch)

    From the check-in to check-out they are extremely well organised and pleasant. It was great to be able to have a room next to our other party with a joining garden gate. The food and drinks were generally amazing (besides one evening). The beds are comfortable and house keeping was amazing. We did have a slight issue with our ceiling fan but the maintenance team worked to get it sorted.

    The food and dinner staff was disappointing. We sat an hour outside in the rain waiting for our food and it was unfortunately not prepared as we asked. The property around the pool is very dated and could use some updating.

    The over water bungalow was a nice experience

    The snorkeling gear was pretty old - I got the same pair of broken fins twice, and they don't sanitize the masks and snorkel between users - Yuk! - this needs to be addressed for general health, not just Covid The room could do with a couple of armchairs or similar, - a minor point though

    Over-water room was excellent, the whole hotel was fantastic

    Everything about this place was superb! Great location, great facilities, great food. They even let you rent snorkeling equipment and paddle board/kayaks for free, which is really not common in french polynesia. The staff was super friendly too - we forgot our keys in the room after checking out, and one of their staff come to the airport to bring it back!

    The manner we were rushed from our room before our required check out time. The bellboy came unannounced to grab our luggage and hint it was time to leave even though we had 45mins left the 11am check out. The hotel maid was right behind to start cleaning the room. This was an unfortunate experience right at the end of our stay. I was taken back and speechless to encounter this type of farewell.

    The overwater bungalow experience was exceptional and the hotel welcome experience was great.

    I wouldn't say I didn't like it but the dinner buffet was ok, not great. We had been on Rurutu for a week with similar food but it was better.

    STUNNING! Excellent snorkeling from the property. Saw all kinds of fish, black tipped reef sharks, eels, turtles... No need to pay for a guided tour when it's out your front door. The staff was incredibly kind as well. Breakfast was divine.

    The food was unoriginal and overpriced. The breakfast buffet was going cold after just half an hour of being out. And the Saturday night dinner buffet was almost entirely meat. Also, the shower partition in our particular room was not very large and made it difficult not to get the floor saturated.

    Great room, with a wonderful view. Pool was very nice, and the location of the resort was very good. Everything was clean, and the staff was friendly and helpful.
