From our upper floor room we had a beautiful view over the water to the reef. The room had a good sized balcony which we enjoyed every day. Even able to sit outside when it was raining as well protected. The bed was very comfortable and with housekeeping each day was appreciated. The staff were extremely welcoming and helpful and the tours we booked through the hotel were wonderful. Breakfast had a good selection of choices. We enjoyed dining at their restaurant by the water. Happy hour was good value too!

This is a beautiful property, very quiet with lots of nature . The lagoon , coral and fish is really beautiful , I wish I knew the snorkeling was so good ? I would have brought my equipment and maybe a go pro. The bungalow over water was great , small work compared to the large bungalow from other large hotels , but perfect size and the glass table overlooking the water , was really cool. In the mornings you could see the school of fish alll over , it was great to see all marine life. Staff was really helpful and nice. Julia received us with a great smile and helped us with directions to local markets and other . I recommend the breakfast , was really delicious : the marmalades , bread selection, fruit , cold cuts , etc very good 😀 I strongly recommend, I wish we would have stayed longer.

I enjoyed everything about this property. I rented a Premium Over-water Bungalow. I spent (with taxes, meals and tipping) over $1,000.00 per day. Our room was provided 2 capsules for our Nespresso machine. I like to wake up at dawn and watch the sunrise. To do this requires the consumption of more than one Nespresso (I have to leave one for the wife). When I asked for additional coffee, it was provided, but at a cost! I was charged $10 dollars, US, for a few additional Nespresso capsules. This just didn't seem right. Thus, i am providing some feedback to your organization. At a $1,000.00 per night, I just don't think i should have been charged for an extra Nespresso capsule for my stay.

We stayed in a premium overwater bungalow, and it was an amazing experience, from early checkin to the ability to use their facilities even after checkout. The bungalow was a dream, with its own snorkel deck and outdoor shower and beautiful views. Both restaurants were great; good food and excellent service. The staff is very welcoming and accommodating. It is such a bargain compared to the offshore motu bungalows, we easily walked for groceries and Matira Beach within minutes of the property. We rented a car, but the hotel offers both airport and cruise/ferry shuttles. Bora Bora had been on our bucket list for decades, and MaiTai really nailed it! We would stay here again and again and again...highly recommend!

Property is a 5 minute walk to the nicest beach on the main island. Property overlooks IC property. Only con is water bungalows are in very shallow water and this side of the island is a little rough so you can’t float next to bungalow or relax in water. Not the fault of the property but just knowing this would have saved me 4 pounds of floated in my luggage. The resort is also very close the the best thin crust pizza, Lucky House and BBC is walking distance which was great views and food too. People were very nice and helpful. The buffet breakfast was very good, it’s just the same things everyday. It got old after a while. Loved our stay here’

Amazing snorkeling. We rented a beach house on the water which was nice, expect the rental notes would be in front of it every morning. The restaurant on site had a decent breakfast, coffee was ok. Sometimes hard to get in for coffee as they have it at the back where there is lots of traffic trying to get their breakfast. Happy Hour was nice with half price drinks. Lucky House was a nice restaurant to walk too within walking distance with a decent happy hour as well and good pizza.
