Le Taha'a Island Resort & Spa

I started with a cruise through the Hawaiian islands and the Society Islands, my friend, and I then stayed at Le Taha’a at Pearl Resorts at the end of our cruise vacation. It was the best part of our 16 day travels. I was able to fully relax at this resort. The staff welcomed us warmly. They were so kind and hospitable they gave us one of the best rooms. I was celebrating my 60th. The food was off the charts delicious and the breakfast buffet also WOW! Snorkeling at the lagoon was the most amazing experience and from our bungalow. We just walked off the ladder and walked through the beautiful turquoise colored sea to the snorkeling destination. They had free snorkel gear for us to use as well as stand-up paddle boards. The room we stayed in was off the charts, beautiful with such an amazing view during the day looking out onto an endless light blue water I truly was in awe. In the evening the milky way and new moon was a sight to behold. I felt like I died and went to heaven. The beauty and experience a dream come true. During the day we saw a spotted eagle ray and turtles leisurely swim by. The room itself was very comfortable and the attention to detail WOW. The service WOW. I cannot say enough about how wonderful my experience was in fact it was so good. I didn’t want to leave. I was going to extend my stay one or two days, but then I realize if I did that I’d have to wait a week to get back home as there’s only one flight back to Hawaii. So regrettably I could not extend my stay. I recommend this place and I definitely plan on returning. Oh and I really love “Tattoo” he is a great guy he welcomes the guest and performed for us when we arrived. What a personality :) if you’re looking to do a once in a lifetime trip this is the place to visit. By the way they do have a swimming pool but I opted for the ocean :)

I've read other reviews about great snorkeling on the neighboring islands; those people must not have visited Le Taha'a and the coral garden! An absolutely incredible slice of paradise ~ you see something new each and every time! This is a smaller, boutique hotel with an authentic Polynesian feel. This was our second time there and this time we brought friends ~ it did not disappoint! Everyone agreed it was their favorite out of the 3 we stayed at (Hilton, Moorea and Westin, Bora Bora).

This place is absoluteyly French Polynesia at its best. The architecture and grounds are amazing and very well kept! It's unique in that it's in a private motu across from TaHa. This is a 5 star resort in my opinion and the over the water bungalows are decorated well and over beautiful views of beautiful palm tress and immaculately landscaped grounds. This was our second trip here and staff went out of their way to make our trip "special and memorable".

The staff are so hospitable, friendly, and joyful. Very clean and well maintained. Delicious food. Buffet is clean and continually refreshed. Highly recommend and plan to return!

The location , service and staff were outstanding. The resort truly lived up to the R and C brand. We thoroughly enjoyed the food, the famous corral gardens and the warmth of the people. We can not wait to return.
