Strandhotell i Maharepa

"Overall Experience: The leisure facilities here are excellent. I especially loved the sand-bottom pool and the spacious pool area with two pools and very comfortable sunbeds. Complimentary hot and cold water, towels, and even sunscreen are available by the pools, which is very convenient. The lagoonarium is a real highlight, with easy access for snorkeling (definitely bring bathing shoes due to stonefish). It’s lovely to watch the turtles swimming by. Some evenings feature Polynesian dance shows. I appreciated the inclusivity of performers of different sizes, shapes, and ages. The vegetarian dish I ordered was outstanding-easily the best and most thoughtfully composed vegetarian meal I had during an entire month in French Polynesia. There’s also a nice gift shop with reasonable prices. They offer a shuttle to central Papeete a few times a day at a lower cost than a taxi, which is a nice service. Room: This is a large resort, so you may need to walk a bit to get to your room. It’s worth requesting a room close to the area of the resort where you plan to spend most of your time. While there was nothing wrong with the room I got, it didn’t feel particularly special given the price. I had a room facing the side of one of the buildings, which likely impacted the experience. If I were to stay again, I would definitely pay extra for an ocean-facing room, as it seems much more worth it at this price point. Room: 3 stars, Amenities: 5 stars."

"I had an amazing 2 nights stay at Te Moana Tahiti Resort and will definitely visit again for a longer time. + The location is fabulous, with stunning views of Moorea and the waves breaking over the reefs along the coastline. The staff are relaxed, friendly, and attentive. Special thanks to the lovely staff member who took care of me when I arrived very early in the morning after a 25 hour flight. The pool area is beautiful and perfect for relaxing and there’s a great selection of non-alcoholic drinks. There's also a natural ocean pool with corals and colorful fish. Beds are very comfortable. I appreciated the cooking and washing facilities, and of course the spacious terraces. – The vegetarian and vegan food options could be expanded, and it would be great if more drinking water were included in the stay."
