InterContinental Tahiti Resort & Spa

I lost my review 2 times so before it happens let me thank Teva, Tevia the concierges, Aurora and Lydia at reception. All the bellman, especially Tevva..popular name . Rooms are dated but the best pools. A/c in rooms is great. It it’s very hot in January. They need to make a path for their little cars as we had to get on the grass when they headed our way delivering folks to far rooms..we walked. Also almost got hit at night from behind!,,

We purchased a day pass to the Intercontinental Tahiti. The experience was incredible. The pools were so peaceful and beautiful. The view from them was impossible to beat. The lunch that came with the day pass was the best meal we ate on our entire vacation. Highly recommend purchasing a day pass!

Hotel is very tired second time staying there over the last 2 years while transferring to Bora Bora. Very expensive overnight at over $900 CDN. Unfortunately there are not a lot of choices to stay near the airport. Rooms are dated and there is a lot up and down transitions in halls.

The guys at the pool hut Yves and Tama Tao Made me feel so at ease They play guitar while they wait for guests, make their own scented coconut 🥥 oil for us to use !!! And came by the pool to offer pineapple wedges ! Opened an umbrella for my by each chair ! That’s service

We arrived at the hotel within an hour of our flight landing at 6am. The reception staff was great, we received a key to one of the transit rooms to shower and change after the long flight. Towels, soap and shampoo are provided. Breakfast was available, buffet or a la carte, many choices. Another reviewer mentioned the grapefruit, so good. All our meals were good, except one, which was just not to our taste. Portions were large, meals and drinks are expensive, but considering the location, not unexpected. Luggage was held until our room (212) was ready, which was 12pm, so earlier than the 3 pm check in. Thank you for that. We walked around the resort, found a great shaded area by the lagoon. There was a dinner show on Wednesday evening, we did not attend, as jet lag was setting in. We stayed one night pre-cruise. We returned for an additional two nights after our cruise, and ended up in room 211, next door to the original room we had. Both rooms were very nice, super clean, ocean view, with a nice balcony. There is some noise from the airport, but not too bad. Plenty of storage, beautiful, large shower and a safe in the closet. Someone remarked that the carpets were dirty, the carpets are outside on the outdoor hallway, so they get wet when it rains. Lotus pool area has some construction going on, this didn't interfere with use of the pool or bar. The entire property was very clean, including public bathrooms. The hotel has a shuttle to Papetee available, four times daily, make reservations, there is a small fee, but much cheaper than a taxi. The entire staff was wonderful, very nice and always eager to assist. This includes reception, concierge, Lobby Bar, Tiki Bar, Lotus pool and the main restaurant. We enjoyed our stay!
