Hotels With Bars in Windward Islands, French Polynesia

The most important thing to mention: it has a Japanese restaurant on-site! Very good news for Asian travelers. One the international brand hotels on the island. Close to the airport and downtown. It also has a supermarket across the street. The view is ok but nothing too special. It has a big swimming pool but no private beach. All the rooms are in the main building. It does not have a private lagoon or any overwater bungalows. Overall, it is a nice place to stay just for few days, especially if you need to catch a flight. However, if you are planning to spend most of your time on Tahiti, I recommend to consider a resort hotel.

They charge for EVERYTHING. They even put a tip on my card for themselves without asking me. When asked, the restaurant lady apologized and asked for refund the money back to me. The ladies at the front desk are very aggressive especially the one without hair line. She was very very aggressive. She has no business working the front desk. I paid for dinner show with buffet but they sat me behind the pillars and I couldn’t even see the show. When I complained, they told me that the people upfront had made their reservation way in advance than me. Towards the end of the show, the moved me to another table by which it was already too late as the show was almost ending. The young man at the front desk was very welcoming. I truly disliked the service at this resort. The Paris lady at the spa was extremely nice and pleasant. The ladies at the boutique were a bit kind. Overall, it would have been a nice stay if they had taken the time to make my stay a bit nice. Do not go here if you are a black American. The women are aggressive towards us for no reason. That’s my observation.

Pros: The location is only a short walk to the ferry, cruise terminal, markets, restaurants and shops. If you are only sleeping there and can sleep through pumping music until the early hours it is convenient. If you want to enjoy any amenities like a restaurant for lunch stay elsewhere Con’s: There is no place to hang whilst you are waiting to check in. There is a coffee shop on ground floor. But I don’t travel to Tahiti to expect that is the only space available. We had planned to go to the restaurant for lunch but it was closed for a private function The lobby is a small area crowded with dozens 100? Bags stacked up waiting to check in or depart. We were told firmly check in is 3pm so your room can’t be ready until then. Really? at the stroke of 3 they will wave a manic wand and every room will suddenly be cleaned! There is no pool. The rooms look out to the Road and commercial terminal blocks most of the view we thought we’d paid for. The lifts are crowded with locals? Visiting the roof deck which was so loud into the morning we couldn’t sleep.

The stay was very comfortable, the staff was very welcoming, and not far from the city, the breakfast was rich. It is also convenient to the surrounding attractions and the hotel can also park for free. It's relatively clean.

The hotel has nice infinity pools, but no beach or access to a public beach. You have to take taxi to get to one. Taxis are expensive on Tahiti. The resort does have access to lagoon water in just one spot, there is a ladder, and the water is very clean for those wanting to take dip. The rooms are old, esp. the vanities and the decor in the bathrooms. The bed linens and towels are nice. Also the grounds and the views are very nice. I didn't try the breakfast, but the breakfast area seemed nice. Overall, I don't regret staying here, but would consider this option overpriced due to the age of the rooms.

They had some really great dishes in the restaurant. The rooms were reasonably good and most of the staff were very pleasant. If you visit Tahiti it is a good idea to practice your French as it appears to be the primary form of communication. One thing we noticed was we understood there was a shuttle to the cruise ships and this communication was reversed so we paid for our own shuttle.

First time to be staying in an overwater bungalow and we absolutely loved it - the color of the sea, the sunrise from the deck, the fish and the little sharks swimming by, the starry sky were the highlights.

Decent place in a nice location but the reef has been mostly destroyed near the resort. The biggest problem was that the water was not drinkable (so also not suitable for brushing teeth)! At this price I would expect basic things like this to be in place. I ran out of water one night and had no way of getting anything to drink without walking for over an hour to the nearest water station. The staff were nice but the food was uninspiring and overpriced. The rooms were simple but OK.

The hotel is small, the environment is very good, and the service staff are very warm. We are a family room, divided upstairs and downstairs, can sleep separately, the family is very good. On Wednesday night, the restaurant has a buffet and Polynesian cultural dance. The buffet is average and expensive, not worth it. Everything else is good

The room is a suite with a stove, refrigerator, microwave oven, pots and pans and other cooking utensils. You can make some simple meals yourself and save some silver. I especially like his large balcony, where you can see the hotel's pool and the sea. Take a glass of red wine and lie on the balcony to watch the sunset, beautiful!
