InterContinental Tahiti Resort & Spa

Absolutely awful. Do not book this hotel. They lock the AC at 23 degrees which is far too hot and absurd. Any hotel you are paying for you should be able to adjust the AC. Do not book this hotel. Book Le Tahiti instead. Will never book any intercontinental again.

We had a great experience in our one night here. We spent most of our trip in Bora Bora and only stayed here in transit while waiting for our 7am flight. Upon arrival, they acknowledged our Ambassador status and provided us the perks including free drink tickets, $20 credit toward our food/drink bills, free breakfast, option for late checkout (we didn’t need it since we had a morning flight), and room upgrade (from Garden view of Ocean view, note that overwater bungalows would not be included for upgrades). We arrived after sunset and departed before sunrise so we didn’t get to appreciate the view but seemed like it would be a beautiful view of Moorea. The room was spacious and gorgeous. The staff was very friendly and helpful including the front desk, porters, and restaurant staff at the lobby bar (evening drinks & 4am breakfast) and Le Lotus restaurant for dinner. The setting for the buffet with music seemed wonderful as well but we just walked through as we were strolling the property with our drinks before dinner at Le Lotus. The front desk booked us a taxi for early morning at our desired time and answered the many questions we had. This hotel was fairly close to the airport. It was our highest priced option for our one night stay but we’re happy with our choice as this was wonderful end to our dream Bora Bora vacation. Highly recommend!

We really enjoyed our stay. It is so scenic and quiet. We stayed in the hotel in night and an overwater bungalow three nights. Very peaceful. The water is so beautiful and the boats were relaxing to watch. There is construction but it did not impact our time. I love the beautiful fish in the lagoon outside our bungalow.

From the moment I stepped out of the taxi, I felt genuinely welcomed. Every staff member I met was kind, polite, and eager to help—it really set the tone for the whole stay. The swim-up bar was spotless and had such a fun, friendly vibe, and the view was straight out of a dream. We had dinner at the Michelin-star restaurant one night, and it was amazing. The food was delicious, and the whole setting was so romantic—it felt really special. My partner and I decided to upgrade to one of the villas at the end of the boardwalk, and it was 100% worth it. We could jump right off the deck and swim with the fish. Such a unique experience. I was also recognized for my IHG status, and without even asking, they offered me a late checkout—which was a really nice touch. The location is super convenient too—just a short taxi ride from the airport, which makes it great for either a quick escape or a longer trip. They’re doing some renovations right now, but honestly, I’m excited to see what’s next. We’re already planning to come back!

We stayed at the InterContinental Tahiti for a short transit after our cruise. The hotel was quite busy, with many guests in the common areas, but the staff really did their best to assist everyone. At reception, the team was very professional and tried to assign us a room close to the lobby, as one of our family members had difficulty walking. Despite the high volume of cruise passengers and some guests being upset due to ongoing renovations, the front desk remained calm, attentive, and helpful. We had been informed about the works in advance, so we chose to focus on enjoying the beautiful Lotus pool area, which was a peaceful and relaxing space. The room was clean, and we appreciated the addition of a coffee machine since our last visit — a nice improvement. It was a bit small for the price, but the convenient location near the airport and the idyllic tropical setting made it a good choice for a short stay.
