We enjoyed our stay at the Royal Tahitien, even if it wasn’t as idyllic as we hoped. The rooms were big, the beds were comfy and the resort was quiet. The beach isn’t great, a black sand public beach, with lots of litter on it. When we checked in, we enquired about a car rental, the receptionist said she would get that booked for us, so we went to confirm the following day, just to double check and we were told one hadn’t been booked as that rental place wasn’t open. Not sure what would have happened if we wouldn’t have gone in to confirm, as they hadn’t let us know. Overall though, a good stay.

I like that the hotel was next to a beach, but unfortunately due to my late arrival I didn't get the opportunity to see or walk on the beach. It was a quiet hotel complex, but I didn't like having to walk by myself late at night through an open area to locate my room. I was not familiar with the hotel and the path was not particularly lit very well. The bed was comfortable, but the bathroom needs updating.

The hotel rooms are constructed at an angle so each person’s patio is very private. The grounds are lovely with a nice pool. There is a restaurant right at the black sand beach edge. They serve a buffet breakfast at about $20 per person. The hotel is in a quiet, safe area. It is on the opposite side of Papeete than the airport. So taxi ride at least $20 from the hotel to the city center. Also from airport to hotel at night it was $50 taxi. I suspect that was a padded fee.

Pros: the staff were good and helpful. The facilities were up to date and in good shape. The grounds were nice. Cons: the rooms are all spread out over a large property. Some are on the second floor and obviously they couldn't have elevators. The restaurant is not air conditioned. There is really no dining nearby except for lunch. In general, the city seemed run down and not terribly safe.

The hotel is a reasonably hotel. Rooms were clean and spacious. Hotel grounds well cared for. Hotel staff were very helpful and friendly. The location was reasonable, approx 3km’s from Downtown Papeete, nothing a short bus ride or taxi ride couldn’t fix. The restaurant was left wanting. The service was very poor, sometimes very slow, and wait staff abrupt. This was extremely disappointing, especially given there were no other eateries within a reasonable distance.

I traveled all the way to Tahiti to spread my son’s ashes in the ocean, and this hotel on the Expedia website website said, bask in the sun on our black sand beach. There was no place to lay on the beach, and it was filthy, with trash. I had pre-paid four nights, but we ended up checking out after two nights and moving to the Te Moana. They didn’t have towels for us to go to the pool. I would like to get a refund of the two nights that I prepaid due to false advertisement. The emotional importance of my trip could not have been spent at the royal Tahitian.

Front desk was awesome. Tried very hard to accommodate our very early arrival. Bathroom had a bit of mold but otherwise everything was clean. Grounds of hotel and the pool are lovely. My only disappointment was that the hotel was too far from anything to walk in the hot/humid weather.
