Hilton Moorea Lagoon Resort and Spa

This is unbelievable. I have never stayed at a Hilton Resort before. The friendliest staff, so kind, helpful and gracious. As I have found all the inhabitants of this magical island to be. The food is incredible at the 3 restaurants. The crepe restaurant was my number 3. Learned how to make a lei, at one of the daily activity classes. Gorgeous grounds, a different type of swimming pool. The lagoon is right here for sun bathing, swilling, free snoring, paddle boarding and kayaking. I have not been returning to vacation spots, but hope to do so in 2 years. God has really out shined himself with the natural beauty of this island paradise. What a way to begin 2025!

For a luxury stay on the island of Moorea it really comes down to either the Hilton or the Sofitel. After our stay on this incredibly beautiful island we are so happy with our choice of the Hilton. We had just finished a week on Bora Bora in the lap of luxury and the Hilton Moorea was such a nice blend of luxury and authenticity. We thoroughly enjoyed our time at the Hilton Moorea. The resort itself is gorgeous. It feels very much like you would imagine Polynesia to feel like with beautiful, verdant green mountains, thatched roof huts and sublime crystal clear azure waters. We were here to celebrate a milestone birthday. Check in was relatively smooth. The only minor snafu was that we did not get the room we were hoping for. However, once we settled into our premier ocean view bungalow, # 83, we were delighted. It may not have been the best room or location at the resort, but it was pretty spectacular. First, let me just say that if you’re traveling to this island, you really should spend the money on an overwater bungalow. It makes the experience so much better than you can even imagine! The room consists of a fairly large bathroom and a king size bed with approximately 2 x 4’ glass panel on the floor for viewing. However, the whole reason why you spend the money for an overwater bungalow is the outdoor deck and view. The deck consists of two levels, one sitting area primarily undercover, and then a small platform with access to the water via a ladder. One thing that we enjoyed so very much at this resort was the massive amounts of coral surrounding the bungalows. This resort felt very mature. Yes, it probably needs a little bit of attention and some updating but that didn’t really take away from any of our experience. The resort felt like it’s been there for a while and that was very comforting. The coral had, obviously, a lot of time to grow. There were tons of fish. It was really, really pleasurable. After our daily excursions and exploring this beautiful island we were so delighted to come back to the room and simply hang out and read, listen to music and snorkel. One fabulous thing this resort does is provide you free access to kayaks and paddle boards. Each evening after our day and before dinner, we would grab one of these and spend an hour or so cruising around the resorts waters. We highly recommend doing this. Now for the food, the breakfast buffet was included in our rate and we really enjoyed it every morning. The food was fresh and delicious and had pretty much everything and more that you could possibly want. The lady making the eggs each morning did a masterful job and was so friendly. The only complaint I would have is if you’re going to make hashbrowns don’t put them in a pot with a lid over them. They get soggy instantaneously! But we’re pulling threads at this point! We did attend their Polynesian dinner and show twice. We really enjoyed the food from their buffet and the show was very entertaining. We ate several times for lunch by the pool and the restaurant was terrific. We do encourage anyone who visits this beautiful island to get out and explore and try some of the many restaurants nearby - especially Rudys! Throughout our stay, we interacted with a variety of the staff of which every one of them was cordial and helpful. I would say it wasn’t quite the level of service we experienced in Bora Bora, but it was completely satisfactory. However, the true gem of this resort and highlight of our time here, was the spa. The hostess Julie was such an absolute pleasure. She would spend time with you getting to know exactly what you desired in a massage. She was so unbelievably good at her job and such a pleasure to speak with. We had three massages while we were on property. Two of them were with the masseuse Juliette. She was simply divine. Some of the best massages we’ve ever experienced! Sure wish she lived closer to home! Overall, our experience with this hotel and resort was tremendous. I certainly hope we make it back to the island of Moorea and we would without a doubt stay here again. We have already recommended this resort to all of our friends and family. We certainly hope you enjoy your time here as much as we did ours!

Stayed in one of the overwater bungalows. Amazing snorkeling right off our patio! We went multiple times/day. Rooms are nice and very clean. All of the staff were kind and helpful. Property is a little older but we were here for the lagoon and the reef and it exceeded expectations. The resort also set up a tour for us and we enjoyed the Polynesian show-both wonderful. I would say the only negatives were the gym which had 5 machines and 3 of them were out of order and a coffee shop in the lobby to just grab a muffin or pastry before early morning yours would be nice. A truly great vacation!!

We loved our stay at this hotel. The property is gorgeous, the beach is pretty with blue blue water, snorkelling is good and very accessible. Eating on site also very good! Gym was ok, air conditioning not up to speed so cardio workouts were really hard. Well equipped but very hot. Would return.

We arrived in Maria for the first time and felt we were very well taken care of with a wonderful introduction to the area as well as the level of luxury and service that we received. The food was wonderful and the service was equally superb. The location of the resort allowed many opportunities both inside and outside the facility for splendid recreation.
