Baby location Good location. Nice pool area. Good curls around. needs updating. The featured restaurant was very overpriced with very average food. Drinks at the pool bar we're $20 a piece as well! We couldn't get the temperature down to be very comfortable in the room.

Property is very well groomed. Staff was always smiling and friendly. Resort is located on a white sand beach and has it's own sandy bottom lagoon pool. Grounds are very lush and tropical with sounds of exotic birds. Would come back again!

You definitely get treated depending on the type of room you book. We did a overwater bungalow and normal luxury room and it was the opposite treatment for them. The bungalow was all inclusive while a regular room charged for every extra item. It was just confusing.

The pool was one of our highlights! It felt like you were on a white sandy beach with plenty of umbrellas for shade. Another highlight was kayaking around the lagoon. Views from the room are gorgeous. Staff was very friendly and accommodating. Really enjoyed our time here!

Its a beautiful property with wonderfully friendly staff. The services & amenities are excellent. The rooms were lovely and large. The pool is stunning and fresh water! Breakfast was very good. The le Carre restaurant was superb. A top notch fine dining experience but very expensive especially with our NZ dollars. The te Puna restaurant was excellent as well. All staff were fabulous. They accomodated our every need and looked after us so very well. You can walk 5 minutes down the road to shops, restaurants, a supermarket & the best bakery ever. Haute Bois does beautiful french bread rolls which we bought for lunch several times. The taxi ride to Papeete (must go to the markets & have dinner at the Food Trucks) is about $45 NZ and 30 mins. Well worth the trip just to see the market & town. We Returned from Moorea and had 7 hours to kill so taxied back here where we were treated fabulously while we waited. Thank you for all your kindness. I love this place and will definitely stay here again!

The property grounds are wonderful, the area outside the property is a bit run down. Snorkeling from the beach is easy and rewarding, do not dismiss it because it is a hotel. Great location for beginners. Eating at the resort is its only negative. Limited options and costly, $90 breakfast for two...really?

The resort is well situated. It is a little bit on the older side but we were very happy with our room, food, water sports offered and mini bar free of charge. The property has a nice sand pool, lots of comfortable lounging chairs and a gorgeous view on the lagoon and Moorea.
