  • The tropical gardens of the InterContinental Tahiti Resort & Spa lie just five minutes from Tahiti Airport and not much more than ten from downtown Papeete. The super convenient location means it’s a place where many people get their very first experience of a classic Polynesian resort, and an overwater bungalow stay.

    It is a large, fairly busy resort and you’ll find it more lively, both day and night (it’s got a 24 hour bar for example), than any similar resort on the likes of Bora Bora and Moorea.

    The overwater bungalows section though is more quiet and peaceful, relatively speaking, and so you in some ways you can have a romantic getaway or honeymoon while still being able to enjoy the buzz of a lively resort.

    You’ll find lots to do here with shops, fine restaurants, fun bars, a fabulous spa and plenty of water sports and other activities to pass the time with. That plus the fact that you’re so close to the capital city of Pape’ete means it’s almost impossible to get bored.

    Overwater Bungalows & Other Accommodation:

    The have a range of accommodation at the Intercontinental, mainly rooms at the main hotel building which come in various sizes and which have balconies with garden and sea views, but also overwater bungalows with outdoor terraces and lovely views of Moorea Island just across the water.

    These overwater bungalows are in two sections. Eight 400 square feet/37 square meter units surround the resort’s motu (islet) where the lagoonarium and the main pool are situated, while the others are down a coast with a wooden walkway placing them a little farther out on the ocean.

    The latter are referred to as Overwater Motu Bungalows on the booking page and come with 400 square feet/37 square meters of internal space and an impressive 344 square feet/ 32 square meter terrace.

    The Lagoon Bungalows come in two sizes – the standard models are larger internally than the Motu Bungalows but smaller externally – 414 square feet/39 square meters indoors with a 129 square feet/12 square meter terrace. The Superior Bungalows, the pick of the bunch at this resort, are a similar size indoors but come with a 183 square feet/17 square meter terrace.

    The majority of the accommodation choices, but in particular the overwater bungalows, are tastefully designed and decorated, displaying a nice, subtle fusion between modern conveniences and traditional Polynesian styling.

    Though the overwaters are certainly cosy and romantic, the resort itself is busy and developed (as is the island of Tahiti in general) so compared to resorts on Moorea or in particular Bora Bora, some may find it not so ideal for an intimate getaway. Others though may prefer the buzz of a livelier resort, and island.

    Overwater Bungalow Prices:

    Check out all the details – prices, reviews & more photos, on the booking page here.

    Resort Facilities & Things to Do:

    The main choices of restaurants and bars at the InterContinental Tahiti as are follows; the intimate, romantic Le Lotus Restaurant which is set on an overwater deck and serves gourmet food alongside a choice of quality French wines.

    The much larger Tiare has a variety of international food from snacks and salads to seafood and meat dishes using locally caught seafood and imported New Zealand beef and lamb. It is far more lively than Le Lotus, which is the place for a romantic, candle lit meal, and hosts live Polynesian music and dance shows (on Wednesdays and Fridays at the time of writing.)

    The most famous bar at the resort is the Tiki, a classically styled Tahitian bar which also has live events, serves signature cocktails in hollowed out coconuts and pineapples and is consistently popular with both tourists and locals alike. The Lotus Bar is a swim up bar at the main, sand floored, infinity swimming pool and is then there is the Lobby Bar which serves snacks and drinks 24 hours a day.

    You can also choose to have a gourmet meal ordered to your room, and private dining in a romantic setting overlooking the water can also be arranged.

    There are tennis courts at the resort, a 24 hour health and fitness center/gym and then there is what is probably the best spa on the island of Tahiti; the Deep Nature Spa by Algotherm.

    All sorts of water, and other sports and activities can be arranged at the InterContinental, including surfing (plus surfing lessons), snorkeling, diving, boat tours, catamaran cruises, 4×4 jungle tours, nature & cultural tours, quad biking, horseback riding etc. etc.

    The resort is very family friendly and children will also be well entertained, with special, fun and educational activities, and special kid’s meals available at the restaurants. Baby sitting and child minding services are available too.

    Resort Reviews:

    “Fantastic!!! Everything about this place is spectacular. They have the friendliest and most helpful staff I have ever interacted with in a hotel….”

    “The hotel grounds are lovely with beautiful views looking out towards Moorea. We admired the surf breaking along the reef from our room balcony and enjoyed the hotel amenities: lovely and varied breakfast buffet, pool and swimming with fish in lagoonarium, walking paths. We also found hotel staff to be very accommodating with genuine friendliness. The gentle nature of the island culture is immediately apparent. A lovely first stop after a long flight!…”

    Sofitel Moorea Kia Ora Beach Resort

    10.8 miles
    Address: Sofitel Moorea
    French Polynesia
    France
    Category: 5 Star Luxury Overwater Bungalows, Family Friendly Overwater Bungalows, Overwater Bungalows for Honeymoons, Overwater Resorts with Spa, and Overwater Bungalows with Glass Floor
    The 5 Star, Sofitel Moorea Kia Ora Resort is a private enclave surrounded by crystal clear waters and pure white sands near to both Moorea Airport, and to the island’s main ferry dock which has regular ferries running the hour long journey to and from Tahiti. It is a beautiful place, and if you’re coming, as most people are, straight from Tahiti both it and the island of Moorea will really offer the wow factor. The setting ticks all the boxes for a classic Polynesian island stay; balmy turquoise waters, powdery white sands (the beach alongside is consistently rated one of the best in Polynesia) and lush green tropical foliage, while the resort itself is small, intimate and oozes romantic indulgence. Sofitel is family friendly but it doesn’t have much in the way of specific facilities for kids. In general though they will be well looked after by the helpful, cheerful staff. Babysitting/child minding services are also available. Overwater Bungalows & Other Accommodation: They have a range of bungalows and villas, mainly overwater but with a few beach and garden villas too, ranging in size from 450 to 800 square feet. All are sleek and modern in style with lots of polished wood, soft lighting and pastel colored fabrics, though also with that classic, traditional Polynesian look externally. The overwater bungalows at the Sofitel Moorea feel the most traditional in style internally and as such are cosy and romantic. They all come with outside terraces with lounging furniture and direct access to the water. They are the most popular accommodation choice and, though almost double the price of the cheapest, garden based bungalows, most people decide they are worth the extra. You’ll find all the usual 5 Star hotel facilities at the Sofitel, there is a concierge service here and in general throughout the resort the service is outstanding. Overwater Bungalow Prices: Check out all the details – prices, reviews & more photos, on the booking page here. Resort Facilities & Things to Do: The resort has two acclaimed restaurants; Pure, which offers quality international and local dishes, both buffet and a la carte and has live entertainment on some READ MORE

    Le Taha’a Island Resort & Spa

    144.57 miles
    Address: Motu Tautau
    French Polynesia
    France
    Category: 5 Star Luxury Overwater Bungalows, Family Friendly Overwater Bungalows, Overwater Bungalows for Honeymoons, and Overwater Resorts with Spa
    The 5 Star Le Taha’a Resort sits on a tremendously beautiful, secluded private islet between Bora Bora and the famous vanilla island of Taha’a from where it gets its name. It offers a delectable form of tranquil, laid back luxury and at slightly cheaper prices than on Bora Bora. Cheaper prices or not, for many Le Taha’a is preferable to resorts on Bora Bora’s main island anyway in that it has an even more remote, paradise island feel. And it is a small, intimate resort which feels more personable and less corporate than many others. This is reflected too in its architecture and interior design – the accommodation, and the resort in general, feels more traditionally Polynesian than most. Overwater Bungalows & Other Accommodation: Le Taha’a has 45 romantic, old style wood and thatch overwater bungalows above the islet’s crystal clear, bountiful waters, and a range of cosy beach villas with private gardens and plunge pools steps away from the beach. This is 5 Star luxury accommodation with all the conveniences you might come to expect but the decor is traditional Polynesian – displaying native woodcraft and some lovely examples of Tapa barkcloth – and so has a more exotic feel than many other resorts in the region. The overwater bungalows are all 969 square feet/90 square meters, in size and broadly similar but priced slightly differently according to the view they offer, with a view of Bora Bora and its iconic Mount Otemanu being the most expensive. There is also a small extra premium for the extra privacy of an End of Pontoon Overwater Bungalow which we feel is relatively good value. The beach villas are similarly priced to the overwaters but they are at least twice the size and so are worth a look. Their Royal Pool Villa is the most expensive accommodation in the whole resort but it is really quite special with roughly 2,800 square feet/260 square meters of space surrounded by its own private walled garden.

    InterContinental Thalasso Bora Bora

    156.03 miles
    Address: Bora Bora
    French Polynesia
    France
    Category: 5 Star Luxury Overwater Bungalows, Family Friendly Overwater Bungalows, Overwater Bungalows for Honeymoons, Overwater Resorts with Spa, Overwater Bungalows with Glass Floor, and Overwater Bungalows with Private Pool
    There may be a lot of competition in terms of luxury retreats in Bora Bora and indeed in the broader region of French Polynesia, but the 5 Star InterContinental Thalasso Bora Bora is really quite a place. It is located on its own private island, a 20 minute boat ride from Bora Bora Motu Mute Airport, and it is hard to overemphasize the extraordinary setting, with the craggy peak of Mount Otemanu towering above and the most beautifully clear turquoise waters you could ever imagine swaying gently all around. It also has consistently high levels of service, great facilities and a laudable commitment to eco-friendly and sustainability principles, all of which make it stand out somewhat from the rest and lend the place an extra exclusive feel. It is very much a once in a lifetime vacation venue, and smoothly manages to be both family friendly and ideal for honeymoons. Overwater Bungalows & Other Accommodation: The overwater bungalows and villas are in a choice position to enjoy the setting with their boardwalk jutting out right in the middle of the bay. They are also all exceptionally spacious; the smallest cover a minimum of 1020 ft² while the largest, the ‘Marlon Brando Suite’, comes in at a whopping 3465 ft². As you will see there is a great range of accommodation to choose from, most, but not all, of which are overwater. Of those that are overwater they come with glass floor coffee tables from where you can peer down into the coral reef and see all manner of exotic creatures. Many also have their own private, on deck, infinity swimming pools. The design and interior decoration are a pleasing mix of modern and traditional Polynesian and they have all the modern facilities and comforts you would expect from a luxury hotel: air-con, WiFi, cable TV, music system, refrigerator, coffee maker, mini bar, some lovely bathrooms with bathtubs and rainfall showers, as well as plenty of lounging and dining furniture both inside and out. Room service is 24 hours and you can expect the absolute best in service throughout the resort which also has a concierge team. As mentioned above InterContinental READ MORE
