Fautaua Waterfall Tours

We arrived at the hotel at 5:15am after a red eye flight from Calif and check in wasn’t until 3pm. They secured our luggage and we were let up to the first floor where a quiet sitting area with water, coffee & tea was available. We actually fell asleep for 2 hours and got up to explore downtown Papeete. Downtown was dingy, worn down and had grown people sleeping on sidewalks. We didn’t feel unsafe, but walking around once was plenty. We returned to the hotel at 10am and were told our room was upgraded and we could check in at noon. We spent the next 2 hours in the Kon tiki coffee cafe and had a great lunch. Our upgraded room was a suite with small kitchen and view of the ocean. We ate dinner at the Kon Tiki Reeftop bar with wonderful views of Moorea and the sunset. The ferry terminal is right across the street, very easy to walk to with luggage. The Boutique Kon Tiki hotel was absolutely perfect for our one night stay before taking the ferry to Moorea.

Amazing location! We landed, took a taxi to this hotel with others and paid $13, went to the hotel. Next day, we walked to the ferry dock (literally less than a 5 minute walk), and went to Moorea! Best location.
