Fantastic Lagoon Suite

I upgraded to a Lagoon Suite, and it was definitely worth it! The room was spacious, with a lovely kitchenette and a balcony that offered amazing views of the lagoon. It was a perfect setting to relax and bask in paradise.

Our experience at the resort had its highs and lows. The views from our room were breathtaking, and the facilities, especially the pool, were stunning. However, we encountered significant issues with the service and some room amenities, which dampened our overall enjoyment. While the location offered a serene escape, the service shortcomings were quite disappointing.

My stay at the resort was quite delightful with phenomenal views of Moorea from my spacious top-floor apartment. The dining options at the lagoonside restaurant were a highlight, with delicious meals every day. However, I did experience a troubling smell in one of the rooms that detracted from an otherwise wonderful stay. Overall, it's a great place for both comfort and dining, but the odor issue is something that needs addressing.

We had a fantastic time at this resort during our family vacation. The villa we stayed in was spacious and perfect for our needs, offering stunning views and a great kitchen. The helpfulness of the staff stood out, and we especially enjoyed the delicious breakfast. However, the cleanliness could use some improvement, and we faced some strange rules regarding the pool that were frustrating at times.

I had a pretty good stay at the hotel, which is set on the west side of the island with some stunning views of Mo'orea. The decor is charmingly Polynesian and quite colorful. The rooms are spacious, but I definitely recommend getting a sea view, as the noise from the road can be a drawback. The pool area is exceptional with a beautiful infinity pool that offers fantastic vistas, although the dining experience could use some improvement, especially at breakfast. Overall, a decent value for money, but there are a few areas that could be better.

Rooms

8.0

The rooms were spacious with an interesting layout, featuring a kitchenette and options for ocean views. However, make sure to book a sea view room to avoid noise from the road.

Location

The hotel is located about 15 minutes from downtown and the airport, which can feel isolated since there aren't many nearby attractions.

Dining

The dining experience was a bit underwhelming, especially for breakfast. Though the poolside restaurant serves good food, breakfast options felt limited and could use enhancement.

My stay at this resort was a mixed experience. The location is beautiful with lovely views, but I found some aspects of my visit disappointing, particularly regarding service and value for money. The rooms, while comfortable, didn't meet my expectations for luxury given the price. Overall, it's a nice place for a short getaway, but you might want to think twice if you're looking for a high-end experience.

Rooms

The resort is set in a stunning location, right on the lagoon and close enough to local shops and restaurants. However, there isn't much to do nearby without taking a shuttle or taxi.

The infinity pool is lovely and well-maintained, but I wished there were more amenities offered considering the resort's boutique claim.
