This newer hotel was excellent for our three night stay on Moorea. Very clean and quiet, nice staff, and very comfortable accommodations. We had a beachfront bungalow, and really enjoyed the stocked kitchen and lovely patio. The beach is really nice, with decent snorkeling just offshore. There is a small shopping center a few miles away, convenient for anything you might need. We will return!

My wife and I spent 6 days and 5 nights in an OWB with a mountain view and king bed. Arriving, it was surreal to see landscape that exactly matches all of the beautiful pictures. Everyone of the staff was incredibly nice, and several knew us by name (which was a little unnerving at first but was a very nice personal touch). The concierge was incredibly helpful to get us scheduled for different items (shark and ray snorkeling, spa days, dinners and trips into town). All of the on-resort items...

Definitely Bora Bora is amazing. The hotel , over water bungalow is also amazing. The service, our Butler Carlos is amazing. However the food variety is very little , quality and taste wise food was very poor! We could hardly have a nice meal on our last day at the Candle Light Dinner. Please don't get afraid if you see sharks all around, including in front of your room. And one final bad comment about the boat transfer charges! There is no other way to go to hotel, and they charge you 250$ for...

We booked the honeymoon cottage, which is a separate ocean-front fare surrounded by flowers and fruit trees. It has a canopy bed and a single bed where we set our suitcases. There is a fully furnished kitchenette with a half size fridge, cooktop, microwave, coffeemaker and kettle, and toaster. All the cookware and dishes are furnished as well. We love shopping at the local markets and preparing our own meals, so this was perfect! Bring your own coffee or tea, and seasonings. Pizza Daniel...

Absolutely beautiful well maintained property! We stayed 3 days out of 6 at this location and we should have stayed here the whole time. Exquisite grounds and comfortable bungalows with every home amenity you need. The host was very hospitable and a joy. You will be treated at a very high standard and feel like you are on vacation. I cannot recommend this place enough. Dont bother booking anywhere else.

We stayed for 11 days and truly enjoyed the entire experience. The staff were amazing, friendly, knew our names and our favorite drinks every time we walked to the bars/restaurants. Check-in was easy and friendly. We were in Bungalow 9 which was amazing - we couldn't see any other huts from our bungalow or our deck. Sunrise huts are great because they get full sun on the deck from sunrise until about 4:30pm which is awesome! Some of the other units didn't have full sun all day.

Our room (cottage) was perched 180 ft above the beach. It was perfectly outfitted with porch, kitchen, bedroom w king size bed. The bathroom was amazing with separate shower and toilet rooms. Both were overlooking the ocean and beach and entire grounds. The entire building was done in local, highly polished, hardwood. The downside is if you don’t have a car rental the taxi fare is 70,000 xfp so stay a few days.

My husband and I stayed at the Pearl Beach for 9 nights to celebrate our 15 year anniversary. The hotel service was fantastic, being greeted each morning by our names by the second day. The hotel was quiet, allowing for rest and relaxation. The views were fabulous and the hotel grounds were exceptionally clean. We treated ourselves to the couples massage and it was fantastic, and also did the jet ski lagoon tour--a definite must! We will definitely be going back!!
