Sofitel Kia Ora Moorea Beach Resort

We absolutely loved our trip to the Sofitel Moorea. Our Overwater rooms are worth every penny. Tatiana at the pool bar was our favorite all trip, and Pedro at the dinners as well. Maururu all! We will certainly be coming back in the future for our trips

The property was beautiful ! The beach was clean, lots of lounge chairs to use. Small infinity edge pool with loungers and towels, as well as outdoor showers to rinse off with. We stayed 3 nights in a beach bungalow, steps to the ocean. Blue, clear water as far as the eye can see ! We also stayed 3 nights in an overwater bungalow, a different level of "wow". Both bungalows were spacious and nicely decorated, king size beds , air conditioning and ceiling fans for a comfortable sleep environment. Bathrooms featured a rain shower and double sinks. Overwater bungalow with outdoor shower and private entry ladder into the lagoon, inside area with small glassed in area in floor for fish sightings. We had pre paid for our meals in the "Pure" restaurant and enjoyed both the buffet and individually portioned meal choices. Not a whole lot of variety on the regular menu and at times service was slow but in paradise, who can complain... Front desk staff was friendly,and professional, water sports team was helpful and friendly as well. We hated to leave, but we WILL be back !

We stayed in a luxury over the water bungalow. Much to our surprise, the unit was very dated. I almos fell through the deck due to a rotting board. They block the air conditioning to 25 degrees Celsius. The food at PURE is not to par for this type of property. The Mahi Mahi was under cooked and like slimey rubber. The burgers were also under cooked. My wife had a diamond necklace and earrings stolen out of her bag the first room service we had. Luckily it was fake diamonds, but doubt the thief knew that. The location is great and surrounding scenery is gorgeous. The property is just not what you expect for the price.

We were thrilled with our stay at the Sofitel in Moorea. We were arriving on a private jet around noon, with a 3pm check in time. The hotel offers a romantic dinner on the beach and we asked if we could it a 1pm instead. They agreed, and had the most amazing Mother’s Day lunch. This is just one example of the exquisite service they offered. We booked the 180 degree horizon overwater villa and it was great and very private. The water was clear and there were plenty of fish rim front of the room. The resort is adjacent to a public beach, but sheltered enough so the beach area was private. This was our favorite stay in Frecnch Polynesia and we’ll be back for the whale migration so,e October soon.

Beautiful resort. The overwater bungalow stay was definitely a bucket list item for us. We were very impressed and it met all our expectations. We booked the luxury overwater one and loved how big it was. We saw so many colorful fish and stingrays under our bungalow. Loved the clear glass floor! It was clean and the service each day was wonderful. We also loved the breakfast every morning. Shout out to the fun omelette chef! He is great! The snorkeling was fantastic in this area as well. We even appreciated that we could use all the facilities after check out and they had a shower and changing room after enjoying our final day at the beach. We will most definitely be returning to the Sofitel.
