Good price. Day staff ok. Night staff non existent. Guard didn’t speak English. Arrive at 10 pm. No water to purchase at desk and none in the room. The A/C was not on in the room and it was HOT! A/V needed room key in the slot to work. Took Hours to cool off. Walking to our room was through the grounds and no lights nor directions to buildings. Lots of stairs to room. Nice beach front with restaurant. Ok for a short stay. Hotel arranged a transfer from airport for a fee. About 15 or 20 mins with no traffic. I would not choose again. Bite the bullet and pay the big bucks.

Not the greatest

My stay was just not good, I arranged a transfer with the hotel from the airport & they charged me twice what a taxi would have cost. The woman at the breakfast was rude, breakfast was not good, items gone & not replaced (eggs), the cost of breakfast was very high for what they offered, the black sand beach was a joke, the pool was very small & had very little chairs. The room was ok, typical of most hotels. I would not stay here again.

Lovely grounds and good sized clean room however, a dated property. Restaurant is very over priced for limited buffet breakfast and evening meals. In residential area with few choices for restaurants. Staff was not overly helpful, dont know if that was a language problem.

Restful night!

Great stay. Beautiful grounds, pool was prefect. We only stayed here one night on our way to Moorea. We loved the room although the bathroom is a little dated. The bed was super comfortable. My husband agreed we had a great night sleep, plus it was very quite. We would stay again.

This property has potential but is tired. Other than a view of the ocean from the restaurant you would never know it is ocean front as there is a concrete wall blocking the beach and ocean view for the entire property. Even if they're fighting coastal erosion, it would seem there would be a way to actually enjoy the ocean front setting better than what's in place currently.

The first night was in a run down room, but we stayed a week later and it was a very nice room, though the shower tub could ise updating. A nice though expensive breakfast buffet. The restaurant is a beautiful setting with tahitian vibes on the shoreline. Good food and good bands playing with locals dancing on weekends. Nice little pool, but very friendly and helpful staff. Overall, a less expensive option that worked fine for quick stays.

Stayed for 2 nights before our ferry to Moorea. We loved the pool area, very pretty & great place to chill after our long flights from the UK. Room was clean beds comfy. Breakfast was really nice & the lady that is there in the morning seating people & taking payments was lovely. All the staff were friendly & helpful. Great location for ferry & airport too. Only thing we found was food in the restaurant was quite pricey. But overall we enjoyed our stay & would definitely stay again when in Tahiti.

I had a lay over stop on my way to New Zealand, and the hotel was a nice stay, The staff was nice and friendly and my dinner was good. I didn’t have a change to walk around the ground because it was a storm off and on during my stay. But they did provide large Umbrella to move around the area.

Staff was friendly and the location was convenient. We liked the proximity to Papeete. However, the rooms could benefit from simple fixes like shower curtains and having appliances that plug in close to the outlets. Just minor things, but could help. Also, WiFi was very slow, which is tough when updating travel plans

Très très bon accueuil et excellent lunch et diner

L'accueuil du personnel est parfait que ce soit à la réception au services ou au restaurant. Le petit déjeuner est copieux, frais et excellent, la restauration de très bonne qualité. Les chambres mériteraient un petit rafraichissement (rideaux marrons....) Nous gardons un très bon souvenir.
