Te Moana is a pleasant hotel. Cleanliness is seen throughout the hotel. Staff is very attentive with Polynesian hospitality. As others have mentioned the hotel could use a bit of renovations and the rooms do in fact have a "unpleasant smell". The pool area also needs renovations. All in all it's a nice hotel.

Very noisy at night, dogs, in cages at the property, bark all through the night. The rosters start up at 4.00am and continue right through the morning. The shower was only a dribble. The treads on our stairs, in our unit, were loose and really noisy. Not recommended for the cost of well over US$500 per night

Most days our room was not cleaned, in returning to our room, we had to ring reception for clean towels, tidy our room and make our beds, which we could do, but as a service we paid for, wasn’t what we expected. Staff were rude and very unhelpful, the exception being, a couple of the front desk staff, and the activities staff.

We stayed at the Te Moana for two nights and especially loved the outdoor areas, such as the lagoon and gorgeous infinity pool. The little islands conected by bridges were very romantic with little white lights, fun drinks and a gorgeous sunset over Moorea in the distance. The hotel room and balcony could use some renovation, but everything was comfortable and the restaurant meal of tuna was one of our best of our trip. I saw some tropical fish at the lagoon I didn't see anywhere else!

A noisy stay

This was our second visit, in general all ok but just a couple of things not so good cockroaches in the kitchen area, also small bugs around the lounge chair, the roosters crowing was the most annoying thing of all you need to eradicate them from the resort, otherwise all good but if the roosters stay we wont return

Although our flights were delayed and we didn't get to take in all of the beauty that is this resort, we made the most of the 6 hours we had. The views are unbelievable, the beach and lagoon area amazing, not to mention the bars and dock seating. Will return one day to enjoy this place in it's entirety.

This resort is not like its pictures. It’s as if they built it and never up kept with any of it. The room was HORRIBLE. The smell was overbearing. Smelt like mold and musty wet linen. The couch was severely stained. It was so disgusting we didn’t want to sit on it. The bed was supposed to be a king bed and instead it was two rock hard twins that they had put together. The pool area was nice but not like their photos. The waterfall feature in the pool was broken during our entire stay. The room service was disgusting. Overall as an American I would NOT stay there. The facility itself feels safe but the second you’re outside it’s a third world country.
