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.

We stayed for a week with a trip to Bora Bora. The hotel is lovely, food excellent and service very much to a premium standard. We recommend doing the Tahiti show with all the dancers and local music. The room was lovely and we had a great view of moorea. I highly recommend this hotel for anyone looking for a relaxing break.

We were here for a quick 24 hour stay before heading on. The hotel is less than a 5 minute taxi ride from PPT. Super convenient if you are flying on to other islands later. Our room was clean and pleasant. Spacious enough with a small balcony outside. Excellent air conditioning kept our room cool and comfortable. We spent little time in our room though, because the tropical grounds and the inviting pool outside were where we spent our only day here. Note: in mid April 2025, one large pool is under renovation construction. We enjoyed evening drinks on the lower level in the Tiki Bar after our flight got in. The wait staff were super friendly and accommodating. Relaxing ambiance and authentic Polynesian vibe. The pool with the swim up bar was ideal for a day of relaxing in the sun. We had delightful conversation with the hospitable bartender and she made us delicious drinks complete with lovely garnishes. This pool has an incredible white sand bottom so it is very soft on your feet. It has an incredible view of Moorea across the way. We spent the large majority of our day here in the pool, savoring the splendor of the tropical sights and sounds around us while soaking up the sparkling sunshine. Every employee we encountered was friendly, gracious and welcoming. We very much enjoyed our extremely brief stay here and we will return again in the future.
