The hotel was a great value for the money. Staff at the hotel and restaurant were excellent and very accommodating. They went above and beyond particularly with our food allergies and helping us get our ferry to Moorea. Rooms were clean but bathrooms could use some updating. Overall we were very satisfied with our stay.

Great property, we only stayed for the day, had late night flight. Enjoyed the pool, beaches on site open to the public. The Restaurant was very good, great staff. The Negative was coming off cruise the hotel was not prepared to handle the customers that were checking out or checking in. They wanted to charge $90 for early check in before 2pm. Our room was not ready at 2pm, we arrived at 10am. They did allow us to use the pool and facilities until our room was ready. Our room was very clean and roomy.

We arrived around 10:30 on Saturday evening and the reception was waiting for us to arrive so they could check us in. The room was quite warm but cooled down quickly when we turned the AC on. We only stayed one night as we were heading to another island. Nothing fancy but certainly fit our needs.
