Sep 05, 2019Phenomenal resort!
This resort exceeded our expectations in nearly every way. The rooms were fabulous with everything needed for an incredible and memorable stay. However, the over the water bungalows were absolutely INCREDIBLE! So much more memorable and incredible than we ever imagined it would be! Worth every dime and then some! We believe the pool to be the most beautiful and picturesque on both Tahiti and Moorea. The lounge chairs were amazingly comfortable, the grounds are beautiful and the staff was incredible. The only downside of this resort was the food. Do not dine at Puna Bar. Do not order anything grilled. However, the upstairs bar restaurant was great with more variety of foods than the other two restaurants and better value. Unfortunately, we had money taken from our bungalow, so make sure you always put all valuables in the safe at all times and you will be fine.

Very comfortable, outstanding experience
This hotel is on a beautiful site on the western lagoon with clear views of Moorea. We stayed in the overwater bungalows which are absolutely luxurious in every way. They are spacious, modern, clean, well air conditioned, and have one of the most comfortable beds you will ever find in a hotel. The staff is extremely welcoming and friendly, check-in and check out are easy, and the concierge is very helpful. The resort is also close enough to be convenient to the airport and downtown Papeete, but there is no noise or reminders of these anywhere to be found. I would highly recommend to anyone staying on Tahiti looking for a luxury experience.

Aug 18, 2019Disappointing
Very suprised by this Sofitel hotel in Tahiti. Grubby, run down and a stinky room. Extremely expensive food & beverages- $60 AUS for a very basic breakfast offering. The only saving grace was the small white sand beach.

Aug 09, 2019A very happy intro to Tahiti!
A pleasant first stop on our trip to Tahiti, with a plentiful breakfast, well cared for open spaces, and fun pool and beach for the kids. As an introduction to the island our stay here seemed wonderfully calm, inspiring, and surreal. The Polynesian dance show on Friday can be enjoyed from the balcony bar.

Truly a luxurious experience.
Tahiti la ora resort is truly a luxurious experience, viewers can ignore all the previous bad comments, location is near town not not too close, Kodak perfect views, friendly staffes, and complimentary mini bar. We stayed on room 809 which is a water Bungalo, it's been completely renovated, nice soft bed, AC works great.
