Sofitel Kia Ora Moorea Beach Resort is one of the most luxurious hotel in Moorea. As the hotel of reference on this island, Sofitel Moorea Ia Ora Beach Resort invites guests to discover its mixed heritage of brilliantly blending French elegance with the authentic Polynesian culture - a rare and refined sophistication in the heart of paradise. The decorator, Isabelle MAFFRE, was inspired by the different Polynesian cultures, and gracefully paired ultramodern decoration with traditional architecture. The hotel is situated in an exceptional location, on the most beautiful, white sand beach in Moorea, facing the tropical splendor of Tahiti. Guests are able to enjoy numerous water sports activities, as well as rejuvenate at the magnificent Spa, with an outdoor private plunge pool. Dining at the gastronomic restaurant “K”, is a unique experience, as it presents a refined cuisine set in romantic décor, complete with a natural white-sand floor.

The beach and lagoon are awesome! Mosquitos at the bar were bad. But they had spray available. We did not have hot water = cold showers. 2 nights we didn’t have ANY water at all and used the water in our ice bucket to flush the toilet. Renovations were going on at the other end of the resort, maybe that had something to do with it. When walking the beach to our bungalow found a lot of broken glass. When asked to talk to the manager at checkout someone came out who I thought was the manager; told her about our stay and asked for a credit- she then had to go ask the real manager who never even came out to talk to us.

I just recently stayed at the Hilton property in Moorea, but found myself traveling 5 miles down the road to eat and drink at the Sofitel. The views, staff and food was exceptional. The Hilton made me feel I was on a land based cruise ship. Although, the accommodations were nice as was the staff, but the food was mediocre. Our evenings and lunches were filled with a wonderful environment overlooking the island of Tahiti. The Sofitel had all the elements of a truly luxury hotel. For those other Diamond Members, give up on those few benefits you receive at a Hilton and experience what it should feel like at a luxury resort without needing status. Lucinda at the Sofitel provided the crowning touch with her smiles and exceptional service.

We stayed in a room with garden view very close to the reception. The main attraction is the reef and lgaoon right in front and it is really a fantastic hotel. The food is good and the breakfast is out of this world. It has been a long time since i had such an extensive rango of choice and the quality is also outstanding! All food is very good. The rooms are very spacious and has everything you may need. Our drapes could use some tlc but this is a minor thing and all things considered this is for sure one of the best choices in Moorea.

First all the staff are amazing. Everyday, they remembered our names and room number and were so welcoming and genuinely warm and caring. The beachfront bungalow was spacious and beautiful, having been recently renovated. Views from the bungalow over the turquoise waters of the lagoon and across to the island of Tahiti were gorgeous. We were travelling as a family with our 7 year old son and the staff were so great with him! I liked the MyKids package options which gave our son an all-inclusive food and beverage experience for a reasonable daily price. It was worth it, if you eat 2 meals/snacks on the resort each day, especially as growing kids get hungry often. Everyone from the front desk staff and manager to the restaurant staff, cleaning staff, and bell hops were lovely and attentive throughout the stay. Our Accor Platinum status was recognised several times and we were welcomed with a nice bottle of champagne waiting for us in the bungalow. Overall a fantastic experience in a paradise setting. We will not hesitate to stay here again when we return to Moorea.
