Reviews of Oa Oa Lodge 3 stars

Bungalow on waterside on a nice spot for snorkeling when not too windy. Transfer from airport to the hotel efficiently arranged by Oa Oa Lodge. Good value for money.

Restaurant closed on Sundays. No beach.

That it was over the water and very spacious, huge bed. Also only a 6 minute walk to nearest supermarket. Leilani and other staff were really friendly and helpful… nothing was too much trouble. Pool was lovely and we had a delicious dinner at their restaurant Le Gecko.

Nothing

Beautiful place with a rustic feel and friendly staff.

No soap by the sink. I had to get it from a dispenser in the shower.

Very central location convenient for all activities. Right on seafront with great views. Excellent restaurant.

Beautiful location by the sea, lovely pool area to swim in, the staff were super friendly and helpful and the restaurant was great.

The property is beside a busy road with traffic seemingly passing at all hours of the day and night.

The location is walking distance from the center of the town. Easy to walk to market and buy food as you will need it. The restaurant Nextdoor is great!

The rooms are dated. I had no AC in my room due to “location by the water” had to sleep with door open and mosquitos eat me ! I counted 20 bites in my body. Not even coffee for amenity, which is the minimum a hotel will provide. Wood in the rooms is tired, paint is dirty and bathroom walls stained from corrosion. I know I paid $389 but still for that price I was expecting more.

Great hotel walking distance to the city center. We loved the pool and the size of the bungalow. Really great value for staying in Bora Bora main island. It doesn,t have a beach but you can jump directøy knto the sea and snorklw

Maybe only that the bed was a bit hard.

Location was great and staff was friendly.

Trhe beds were not comfortable. Toilet had no ventilation or exhaust and was quiet suffocating.

Friendly and welcoming staff

The pool was nice but cold, the patio on the room was great and the grounds were well kept and had nice views.

The beds were very stiff.

We loved the people who greeted us on arrival, such us Leilani and Lawrence/Tom (???). We loved the location, the beauty of the area where Oa Oa Lodge was located. The grounds were beautiful as well. The place had a restaurant on site. We only used it for one breakfast, as we found it too expensive for what was served. The restaurant was beautiful, though and the service wonderful.

There was no air conditioning. Our host told us "this is not a hotel, it is a pension". What is really a pension? Our concept from the USA and South America is different. The bathroom had fawcets that fell on the floor as we took our first shower!!!(B5). Then, the sinks had just a string of water coming out. Whoever installed those two sinks did a poor job. They took up so much counter space, there was no counter to place anything on top of it. While there was a refrigerator (thanks!!) there were no ice trays. We asked the front office for some, but they told us to ask the restaurant. They were nice and they filled up a place with needed ice. They had no available fans either, though the room had a roof fan. The bed's sheet was the same as the bed cover. Not bad, though no other "pension" before this one offered only a bed cover. Even though the pool was a wonderful addition to the ambiance of this place, we did not like the astro turf surrounding it. We would prefer an actual deck, or real grass. I was surprised not to find a hair drier, or conditioner in the bathroom. Little details that are important. We loved having a water boiler to have instant coffee, or tea.

The host accommodated our late arrival and had driver picked us up from ferry dock. Great information about the surrounding area as we drove to lodge, if we needed anything.

Nothing to complain about.

Room was what we expected. Staff very pleasing all in all very nice stay.

Close to the airport boat

Overpriced, very uncomfortable, dated room.

Over the water villa was amazing.

The property is lovely, all the bungalows are in between flowers and plants so it feels like being in a tropical garden. The bungalow over the lagoon was spacious and comfortable, and the balcony with the view is great. You can swim in the lagoon from a little platform outside. People were very nice and helped with transport, booking and everything i needed.

NA

pool

We added an extra person and even though we paid for it, they refused to give us an extra pillow for the guest. Staff was rude (except the man that was working at the desk) the woman who checked us in was rude and the cleaning staff. The room was very hot and there was no soap for the bathroom. They had a kettle in the room, however did not offer coffee. The fan was very old and did not work well, so the room was very hot.

Great location, friendly and helpful staff. Nice infinity pool and restaurant on the premises. The complex itself is lovely and in a good position. Walking distance to main town with restaurants, food shops and food trucks. Great snorkelling, and an abundance of marine life around the overwater bungalow.

No soap in toilet sink basin, there is however shampoo and shower gel in bathroom. No hairdryer, iron, tea or coffee, plates, cutlery, tea towel, air conditioning and a ceiling fan that has one speed - high. Towels are old, thin and frayed, beds and furniture are very very old. Bed is very uncomfortable. The room wasn’t clean during our 5 night stay. A drive to nearest beach. I did read the reviews before I booked, and I thought, how bad can it be, there are certain standards to adhere to. It was much worse than I expected. I have been away for 14 weeks and slept in 35 rooms, and this is by far the most expensive and of the very lowest quality.
