"We stayed on the second floor closest to the over water bungalows. The room was average to good, but unfortunately a pipe burst apparently somewhere so they shut off the water for two hours mid-morning without informing us. Thankfully no one was taking a shower or doing a number 2. There also was construction noise on the grounds to repair the pipe which woke us up early the first morning. The building next to us is undergoing a complete gutting and reno, but we didn't hear any noise from that direction. It does look a little worrisome at first when you pass by it as there's plywood boarding up areas and open doorways. It's not what we expected from a $1000/nite hotel I guess. There are convenient shuttles available to take you to and from your room if needed, but you smell the exhaust riding in the back. Staff were generally pleasant. The view from our room was good of the pool, Moorea, and construction grader. The lagoon was very nice and full of fish swimming about. The buffet and dance show was good. Proximity to the airport and cruise port is nice. The Lotus Michelin restaurant is good but a bit pricey. Overall there's not many luxury hotels right on the water in town, and with Tahiti's popularity I guess they can charge a premium for that. In hindsight maybe staying elsewhere and just getting a day pass at the Intercontinental probably would have been equally as fine."

"Beeakfast was awesome along with the pool side. Overall experience was better"

"We were told it was a straight 5 minute walk from RFP to the motel, but the motel 's car gates were locked and the receptionist didn't have a key! So we had to hike up and around a hill in the dark to get there. $12USD breakfast was coffee, juice, a croissant and cereal. Meh. Bed was adequate, room was clean, and AC worked. "

"We loved our stay here. This is one of the only properties with direct beach access. We took the paddle boards and kayaks over the coral reef lagoon. We took amazing sunset pictures off the over the water bungalow docks. The restaurant had a busy night life “salsa night” on the last Sunday of the month which we got to be a part of. The pool is fantastic. The beds were so comfortable. I really enjoyed the stay "

"Had to walk up "

"The room was beautifully cool. We had to leave very early to catch a flight to Maupiti so we weren’t able to enjoy the breakfast. The owner was very kind and helpful."

"Spacious room with king bed, sofa, table with 4 stools. 10 minute walk to middle of Pate'ete. Friendly helpful staff."

"We only stayed 2 of our 7 nights booked.Cleanliness was an issue at this property.The pool was advertised as a top-rated pool, but the pool was not clean and is in need of repairs.The patio furniture cushions were stained and need cleaning. There was animal feces covered in white powder outdoors, dead insects inside/outside and ants on the kitchen counter. The coffee pot and the toaster were too dirty to be used. Household and soap supplies were limited. The website pictures did not accurately reflect the furnishings. The safe was unusable as it was locked. The directions were accurate but the road up the mountain to the home is in total disrepair.The property views/sunsets are as advertised and were absolutely beautiful."

"Very clean room. Quiet, out if the way facility with an outstanding view. Very helpful staff. Beware, extremely remote and a difficult drive to get there."
