Reviews and Ratings
The hotel offers spacious and beautiful rooms with a viewing glass area and back deck leading to convenient and spectacular snorkeling. The beachy modern vibe and mini private pool add to the charm, though the rooms are somewhat outdated. The privacy provided is excellent, with no overlooking neighbors.
Our stay at the hotel offered a mix of positives and negatives. The over-the-water bungalows were beautifully designed and well-equipped, with daily restocked minibars. However, we encountered some cleanliness issues in the room, which impacted our experience. The location was superb, right by a coral garden, but we did face some disturbances from neighboring rooms. The service was generally friendly and helpful, but there were some delays in responsiveness at times.
I absolutely loved my stay at the hotel! The rooms need some work on their roofs, but I enjoyed the daily restocking of the mini-fridge with drinks at no charge. The location is fantastic, with great views and perfect water depth for relaxation.
Staying at this hotel had its ups and downs. While the overwater bungalows offered a unique experience, we encountered some drawbacks with bugs in the room and slippery floors after a shower. The location, however, was stunning overlooking neighboring bungalows, and the French pancakes at the restaurant were delicious.
The hotel is in a stunning location on the island of Moorea, situated between two beautiful bays. The rooms are immaculate and feature innovative designs like floor windows with adjustable lighting. The service is exceptional and covers every aspect, from reception to room service. The dining offers a diverse menu with international and local influences, catering to various tastes. The facilities are top-notch, including a relaxation pool and deck for ultimate comfort.
The hotel room was spacious, with high ceilings, a patio, and an awesome pool, but there were some issues like bugs in the room, water on the bathroom floor, and cigarette smoke from neighboring rooms.
Staying at the Hilton Resort & Spa Moorea, French Polynesia was a dream come true. The overwater bungalow was huge, and the King Garden Suite I booked had more amenities than expected. The complimentary restocked minibar with beer, coke, diet coke, and water was a nice touch, making it a luxurious experience. However, the service was a bit inconsistent with random timing, especially when asking for assistance from the concierge. Despite this, the location was breathtaking, offering fantastic views of the reef and diverse marine life right from the room. The dining experience, although a bit pricey, was excellent and worth trying. The facilities were top-notch, making the stay comfortable and enjoyable.
The hotel exceeded my expectations with an incredible experience. The rooms were awesome and spacious, although lacking some privacy due to their arrangement. The cleanliness was impeccable.
