We were there for one night, as we had been on sail boat charter x 10 days. Convienent to airport and very nice view, enjoyable happy hour overlooking the water. Dinner was great. We had a 3 bedroom /2 bathroom ... one bathroom had tub only. I would definitely stay here again.

We booked a room and the *Adventure Pass for two* (18,900 XPF TTC, ~$185 USD), which included access to the pool and motus, two cocktails, two hours of kayak or paddleboard rental, and one hour of jet skiing. We checked in around 11 am, and the staff was friendly and welcoming. Unfortunately heavy rain started shortly after, limiting our ability to enjoy the activities. We of course understand the weather is out of the hotel’s control. When the rain persisted we asked to switch to the *Pool Day Pass* (7,900 XPF TTC per person), which included lunch, but without the jetskies the front desk said it was not possible and didn’t provide any further explanation. We felt this was unreasonable considering the package we paid for was more expensive than the alternative and we were not asking for a refund. We were asked several times during the heavy downpour if you would like to go jet skiing but we felt it was unsafe and undesirable given the heavy rain and lack of visibility. We asked if we could go later on if the weather cleared and were not provided a cut off time. When the rain cleared at 3:45 PM, we asked to use the jet skis at 4 PM, but were told it was too late, despite the booth being open until 6 PM. While the staff was friendly, the lack of flexibility and communication was frustrating. We ended up paying roughly $185 USD for two cocktails and would not recommend this pass due to poor customer service. The room was lovely and the bed comfortable.

Booked a room with an ocean view. It was blocked by bushes and had no view (5002). Were moved to a different room, 5008, after a large amount of insect larvae had fallen from the ceiling onto the furniture. This room was blocked by bushes as well with no view. Very disappointing stay. Resort itself was beautiful. It was often hard to find a beach chair. Also, the resort staff placed reserved signs on ocean view seating in the early afternoon to hold them for evening bar guests. If you would like outside seating go before lunch.

Just a perfect Tahitian resort close to the airport and the city, incredible live bands and singers accompany sunsets on the sexy lively waterfront bar. Infinity pool overlooking the ocean. Every possible water sport activity starts steps away from your room, very accommodating and professional staff. Hope to be back!

Beautiful
Highly recommend. The people here except for a few of the women in the restaurant were very nice. The poor guy at the pool bar was completely overwhelmed with orders and knocked himself out to accommodate those in a timely manner and was so nice. I absolutely love the layout of the pool and the lagoon and lots of seating. It was wonderful. The room smelled a tiny bit musty, but I assume it’s because it’s on the ocean, a tiny bit of Febreze on the curtains help that. The only real unpleasantness were a couple of the women in the restaurant and the one at the desk in the breakfast area, not nice. Overall, I love the property and would stay there again, except I wouldn’t pay for the ocean view that we had because it was really just looking at the back of the restaurant!!!

It was ok.
It was ok. Felt expensive for the dated condition the property was in. Our room was a lovely 2nd floor ocean view with balcony but the smell of mold/mildew was overwhelming. It was absolutely necessary to have the balcony doors open at all times while in the room- which I was thankful we could do- even at night. Food & beverages were overpriced & beds were hard. Most staff (except for our check out) seemed overwhelmed or indifferent. The pool area and vegetation on the property are beautiful- but otherwise wouldn’t recommend. Hate to be so negative, but we had a much better experience for the money on Moorea.
