“Te Moana Tahiti Resort makes a compelling case for itself, starting with those Moorea-facing sunset views and a saltwater pool that merges seamlessly with the ocean. I especially appreciate their commitment to responsible whale watching tours. The fact they offer transit guests shower facilities demonstrates real consideration, and turns a practical detail into a genuine advantage.”

tahitian lullaby, a stay to remember

snorkeling access kayaking equipment thoughtful arrangement
i felt welcomed. the access to snorkeling was readily available near the lagoon. i spent hours exploring the underwater beauty. kayaking equipment was easy to obtain and the poolside bar offered good seating near the inner lagoon. the rooms were not only well maintained but also thoughtfully arranged.
i noticed the need for updates in some areas. i longed for a more modern touch in the flooring of the room.

Acceptable stay overall

good selection outside seating beautiful grounds pool area broken tv intermittent work expensive food high beverage price
The hotel grounds are beautiful and well-kept. I appreciated the on-site options for activities available to guests. The breakfast had a good selection with nice outside seating. The pool and bar area is also beautiful with Moorea Island in the background.
I found multiple faults with the room. The tv worked intermittently, annoying, and the toilet flush did not switch off. Food and beverage were expensive for the level of the resort.
