Top Papeete Hotel Reviews

Tahiti Airport Motel

8/10 Good

"Great for a stay near the airport when arriving late. Recommend booking transport for the trip up the hill with luggage"

Manava Beach Resort & Spa Moorea

10/10 Excellent

"Highly recommend this Moorea resort. It has amazing snorkeling in a coral garden at the beach next to the hotel, kayaks and paddle boards, a huge pool, a tasty buffet breakfast, and excellent service at the concierge and reception desk. We also really liked our spacious room in the garden area which had a small private pool."

Polynesian Cabins by Kon Tiki

10/10 Excellent

"I stayed in the “cabins” which were basically one floor of the hotel My key opened a room that then had about eight or 10 individual rooms off of it, and the key also opened one of those. The room had spacious nice bunkbeds, it was decorated well, and it was clean and very cute. I wasn’t sure how it was going to be using a shared bathroom system where you have to leave your room to go to the bathroom, but the bathrooms are individual locked rooms as well and some of them have showers and some don’t. It all felt very secure, safe, clean and upscale. There were also common areas for handwashing, etc.. There was a beautiful outdoor patio common area with a waterfall and comfortable seating. It had an area where you can make coffee or tea, get water, use the kitchenette etc. If your plan is to take a ferry, it really doesn’t get any more convenient than the Kontiki as the ferry terminal is directly across the street. In the morning, I had breakfast in the coffee shop downstairs, which was lovely and delicious. À la carte, pastries and items are available, but there’s also a large buffet if you’re hungry. Overall, I would absolutely stay there again, it was a great experience"

Tahiti Pearl Beach Resort

10/10 Excellent

"In the mornings we put the sign on the door asking for having the room cleaned, and when we returned to the room, they had already cleaned it. The staff were very friendly at all times. On the last day our departure flight was scheduled for midnight so we requested to stay in the room until 6:00pm since we had nowhere else to go until the flight back home. The reception staff and manager were so kind to us, and extended our check out time from 11:00 am to 6:00pm for a fee of $250. That made it so easy for us to spend the whole day at the resort, and be able to have our room available to us until it was time to take a taxi to the airport. It was very helpful to us. The room was spacious and had a beautiful ocean front view. We also loved the adorable cats and a cute little dog at the property. That made us feel at home. We will return and visit again one day. It was a blessing to be there."
