    Only the one restaurant on site which had a limited menu.

    Nice clean and modern rooms. The pool and beach were well maintained and the snorkelling directly off the beach was excellent. It’s in a great location for the sunset which was amazing every night we were there!

    The restaurant food was terrible and I wouldn’t eat there again.

    Beautiful aesthetic and the lagoon at our doorstep/ literally. Great location and about 15 minute walk to the shops and other food places. Well maintained and very clean. Super attentive reception staff helped us with everything.

    It is a little far from restaurants so a car is needed. We hired a car and it was perfect to get all over the island for meals, swimming and touring. We didn’t understand why we were asked not to take the hotel swim towels to the island’s beaches. Most travelers come from very far away and would not be inclined to pack beach towels.

    We loved our 3-night stay at this hotel. Our room was a suite with separate living room with nicely equipped kitchenette, and a bedroom. A separate toilet too. The balcony is large with a table & 4 chairs plus 2 loungers. Beautiful views. The pool is large and gorgeous with lots of loungers. The beach is small and has sharp coral bits so aqua shoes are needed. The large restaurant area has a good reputation with live evening entertainment, but we were disappointed with our hamburger lunch (dry & tasteless) so we didn’t eat there again. All meals are charged to guests, even breakfast. The hotel does not have rooms on stilts which was fine for us. Staff are friendly and helpful.

    Access to the sea from the beach is limited and shallow, but good deep water swimming off the dock.

    Restaurant was excellent, good food, airy and with stunning views, particularly at sunset. Staff were warm, friendly and helpful. Room was actually a spacious suite with lounge area and cooking facilities .

    Warm, friendly staff always willing to help. Smooth check-in. Sea view in our case was a view of the lagoon which was a disappointment, but we had lots of privacy, and it was quiet. Happy to have had parking included in the stay. Suite was very comfortable and clean. When you’re paying over $700 CND a night, there should be two bottles of complimentary water per day, complimentary water

    The restaurant is average at best and pricey.

    One of the best places on the island. Oceanfront location in a new building for the fraction of the price of Hilton/Sofitel. The beach is small and rocky, but quite good for snorkeling. Facilities are nice, room is good for a family of 4 and quiet at night.

    Fabulous hotel location, staff, pool, lounge chairs, bar, restaurant and outside shower. Breakfast, dinner and happy hour at the restaurant was fabulous! Loved having restaurant on the property. The room was very nice. Bed confortable. The large balcony, which included two lounge chairs and a table with 4 chairs, was Nothingfabulous with an exceptional view. Highly recommend this hotel. We'd definitely come again and bring family and friends.

    We were surprised there was no option to purchase little snack items during the day. We would have also welcomed a bit more coffee rations. There is not much of a beach.

    The property feels very clean, our room was spacious and well designed and very comfortable. We had a balcony overlooking the pool with a partial view of the bay. Everything was modern, simple and functional. The AC worked very well. The lightning was well designed. Our bathroom had two sinks and a great shower. We liked that the toilet was separate from the main bathroom. Overall we were very happy with the accommodations. The staff were very polite and friendly. There is a very good restaurant and a bar at the property.

    That we couldn't stay for a lot longer!

    We loved everything about this hotel - the accommodation which was spacious and beautifully decorated in light modern decor. We had a big bedroom and a lounge area with kitchenette too. There were USB sockets each side of the bed which was very helpful. We had a big terrace with a good quality table and four chairs and two sunbeds. Our view was to the pool and the ocean beyond looking through palm trees. It was perfect and everything we hoped for. The staff could not have been more helpful and all spoke great English. They helped us with travel tips and to book our evening at the Tiki Village for which we were so very grateful. The restaurant area is very nice and we enjoyed cocktails looking onto the beach at sunset and a lovely meal afterwards. There was plenty of parking for our rental car. There's a great supermarket called Super U just 2/3km away with stalls next to it selling local fruit and vegetables, The beach area was perfect - wooden double bedframes with shade over the top, comfortable mattresses and pillows as well as lots of beanbags and side tables. We were never stuck for a place to sit and a waiter came round at 5pm one night to tell us it was Happy Hour and serve cocktails. We went snorkelling off the beach every day and saw amazing fish as well as swimming with a turtle and having five foot shark casually swim past us. It was amazing.

    At times the pool/beach/bay area did not have enough shade which made it difficult to be outside enjoying some of the amenities at various times throughout the day.

    The location of the hotel was pretty central in Moorea. The staff were very accomodating and helpful and extremely warm and welcoming. Having a mini kitchenette in our room was fabulous and gave us the opportunity to purchase local fruit or drinks and snacks/food from the market and make our own meals when we needed/wanted a bit of a change. The free parking offered was also a definite plus! The bay provides a beautiful place for snorkeling and the pool cabanas and loungers were great! Was not too busy or noisy and the onsite restaurant had pretty decent food offerings. Best part of the hotel (and our room) is the community events space located next door. We were treated to a traditional Polynesian gathering with music and dancing which provided a truly authentic soundtrack to a beautiful backdrop! Would definitely recommend!
