Nice hotel with nice gardens. We only had a short 1 night stay and departed very early am! But we could not fault this property. Staff were helpful and friendly and the gardens had chickens and baby chicks wandering around which I thought was lovely. Great sunset view overlooking the black sand beach from the garden.

The hostess was very responsive and made us feel safe and comfortable. The apartment had everything we needed, and we really appreciated all the amenities such as the coffee machine with capsules and the monoi toiletries. The location was also very convenient, close to the airport and the centre.

    About 90% of excursions were water related activities and if that’s not your passion it’ll take a bit of effort to find nature, culture options. What I didn’t like as a solo traveler is that Viator tours were mainly required a couple/2 person minimim booking. Thankfully booking.com excursions was a life saver. Most restaurants are closed between 2-5 pm so keep that in mind. I’m not a foodie so I didn’t explore the fine dining options. Papeete lacks a robust night life, it’s more a “get away from real life” and relax that caters to water sports types. I realized I’m a “city girl” type so after 3 days of chilling I was restless.

    Papeete is a dump! We expected more from the French.

    Papeete is a dump! We expected more from the French. Very 3rd world, unsafe water, no sidewalks, trash and graffiti abounds, bums begging, dirty drainage canals, and for this you are charged extremely high prices for everything! Bora bora wasn't much better... Moorea was nice. We took a cruise to the Marquesas and Tuamotus which were still unspoiled and gorgeous with genuine natives. The islands are stunning, but just go to Hawaii.

    Papeete itself is very bland and the market is over-rated (in my opinion). I wished I had planned properly and spent few nights at Moorea, but I didn't know what to expect. Rookie mistake 🫣 Lessons learnt. Despite mixed advice from the locals, I felt safe walking at night, which is a positive outlook for the Island 🙏 As many reviewers have mentioned, Papeete is only a good stopover to the other islands 🏝 😀 The 2 highlights of my stay was the day trip to Moorea, doing the safari excursions and the cultural night at the InterContinental Hotel.

    Over-all it was great.

    Over-all it was great. We spent 7 days on Tahiti, plus a half-day excursion on Moorea. 5 days on Tahiti would probably be enough. Next time we will visit a couple of others islands for a few days. Good food and shopping in Papeete.

    Spending a day or two there would have been enough, there was obvious poverty, with multiple homeless people. Not what I expected at all. I hired a car to visit the sites, but when I was driving around, everything looked closed, or uninviting. As a solo tourist, this wasn't the best place to visit. If I had known better, I would have book a night & visited the different islands.

    The people are what make it so good.

    The people are what make it so good. Very polite people who appear to be honest and kind. The shopping mall across the road from the Hilton was a wonderful place with a food hall and a good supermarket. We enjoyed a day trip to Moorea and a taxi trip around that island. Also the 5-hour Tahiti group trip and the boat trip. I did not do any snorkelling as I do not swim and I thought perhaps an activity in knee-high water could have been included in the boat trip. The Museum of the Islands was a good activity.

    We made our own breakfast, kitchen was so nice and clean and the owner went out of his way to make sure we had , water ,juice , coffee ,tea plus 2 cans of beer for the boys . We were very pleased with the service provided by the owner. He helped as we get into the property and picked us from airport, dropped us to town and picked us again. Can't thank him enough. Best service ever, we are giving five star 🌟 🌟🌟🌟🌟.

    Great location - not far to walk to restaurants, supermarkets, and other attractions in Papeete. Hosts were A++ and kindly met us at the ferry terminal and kindly dropped us off at the airport early morning - really kind! Good communication with the hosts! Accommodation was well equipped, very clean, and a comfortable place to be.

    I've stayed here now on several occasion over the years, Its the best value place in town and better than some cheap hotels. It's everything that you'd expect from a backpackers hostel. It's in the best location in town opposite the food trucks across the road, the ferry terminal to Moorea and the bars and restaurants.

    Great pick-up service from airport ( before 11.30pm) or around town, very handy location to downtown. Sweet little restaurant with continental breakfast incl home-made bread and pizza or seafood options for dinner. Friendly helpful staff, quiet location, clean comfortable rooms. A little gem in downtown Papeete.
