This property has potential but is tired. Other than a view of the ocean from the restaurant you would never know it is ocean front as there is a concrete wall blocking the beach and ocean view for the entire property. Even if they're fighting coastal erosion, it would seem there would be a way to actually enjoy the ocean front setting better than what's in place currently.

The first night was in a run down room, but we stayed a week later and it was a very nice room, though the shower tub could ise updating. A nice though expensive breakfast buffet. The restaurant is a beautiful setting with tahitian vibes on the shoreline. Good food and good bands playing with locals dancing on weekends. Nice little pool, but very friendly and helpful staff. Overall, a less expensive option that worked fine for quick stays.

Stayed for 2 nights before our ferry to Moorea. We loved the pool area, very pretty & great place to chill after our long flights from the UK. Room was clean beds comfy. Breakfast was really nice & the lady that is there in the morning seating people & taking payments was lovely. All the staff were friendly & helpful. Great location for ferry & airport too. Only thing we found was food in the restaurant was quite pricey. But overall we enjoyed our stay & would definitely stay again when in Tahiti.

I had a lay over stop on my way to New Zealand, and the hotel was a nice stay, The staff was nice and friendly and my dinner was good. I didn’t have a change to walk around the ground because it was a storm off and on during my stay. But they did provide large Umbrella to move around the area.

Enjoyed our stay! Checked out the food trucks down the street one night as no restaurants open. Turned out to be a fun experience with gigantic portions that could be easily shared. Pool was wonderful. Restaurant on site also good experience.

Staff was friendly and the location was convenient. We liked the proximity to Papeete. However, the rooms could benefit from simple fixes like shower curtains and having appliances that plug in close to the outlets. Just minor things, but could help. Also, WiFi was very slow, which is tough when updating travel plans

Très très bon accueuil et excellent lunch et diner

L'accueuil du personnel est parfait que ce soit à la réception au services ou au restaurant. Le petit déjeuner est copieux, frais et excellent, la restauration de très bonne qualité. Les chambres mériteraient un petit rafraichissement (rideaux marrons....) Nous gardons un très bon souvenir.

No access to food or refreshments during the afternoon of arrival. Room was badly out of date. No assistance available to help with luggage to & from room. No indication from staff that anything was close by to get food or refreshments. A very poor choice on my part, especially for the cost.

This hotel is located right on the beach, but there is quite a rip current in the afternoon. Just be aware. The property is manicured, greenery everywhere. The pool is suitable for any age. Reception staff are super friendly (like most people in Polinesia), they kept our luggage till check-in and gave us pool towels. Restaurant has good options, their portions are quite big, we shared one. The room is great size and clean. The bed is comfortable.

Classic gem on Tahiti

Charming old world resort beautifully modernized. Convenient to all area has to offer, yet out of the hustle and bustle of Papeete service. Great price. A highlight of our trip

Disliked: Staff & service, property conditions & facilities
They have tried to update the rooms - the bed was comfortable and room in decent shape, though the shower head is very old and placed very low. I expect that in the past the grounds were nice but they are now quite overrun with chickens and roosters and what once might have been a pretty pond and stream running through the property has been left stagnant. There is no useable beach and what bit of sand is there is littered with bottles and waste - I realize that the hotel doesn't control what washes up on the short but I would expect that they have their staff clean it. The price is reasonable so this might be a place to stay if you just need a night between flights or are not planning on spending time at the hotel during the day.

The grounds are verdant and well established. I loved all the birds, including the chickens. Beautiful flowers fall from the trees. It is paradise remembered. Yes, it is old, but with such a wonderful staff, you feel that this is the right place to relax and renew.

Scrolling through options that cost an arm and a leg, i was pleased to find this affordable option. Great staff, good food ( but after 4 days we had tried most options), comfy bed and beach access. No pool bar, but bar is a short walk. Ice machines would have been nice, but bar staff was accomodating. Chickens, a few lazy dogs and bashfull cats were a plus.
