We used this as a place to stay before out late flight out of Tahiti. It worked perfectly. We had a nice bed to rest on, a safe place to store our things while we explored, and a good bathroom to clean up in before our flight. I would certainly book here again for this same purpose.

nice hotel, great staff. Some condition issues. We weren't able to get a key card for our room and had to be escorted up to get in our room. No hot water at first; then ONLY boiling hot water ... not great for showering or brushing teeth or most anything. When we reported it, they moved us next door into a suite from a standard room.
But the front desk (especially Melodie) solved our problems and helped us with our computer issues, always with a smile. Eventually we got keys for our suite....

The people at Tea Tahiti Holidays are welcoming and accommodating. I sat in the shade near mango, plumeria, and papaya trees, beside a refreshing pool, and chatted briefly with other guests.
The owner told me where to find food and offered to drive me to the airport when I leave for less than a taxi.
I had my own table and chairs in the shade, where I ate and read.

Rooms were beautiful comfortable and well done, we had all we needed and more. The property is beautiful the Coral gardens and lagoon is fabulous. We enjoyed snorkeling, with all kinds of stunning tropical fish. The beach is best on island there. The food was great, we loved K and Pure both. Breakfast is worth it and what a view. Bar view is great and drinks and burgers...

This was our first visit to Tahiti and our first stop was Moorea. This hotel is something we will always remember. The staff are the friendliest people we've ever met...Every single worker greets you with a happy Tahitian hello! They'll help you arrange anything at the front and make sure you're happy. Splurge for the Overwater bungalow... It's sooooooo worth it. The snorkeling here was the best we've ever had (and blew bora bora out of the water). Right under the bungalows are hundreds of fish....

We really liked this resort. The rooms are very big, modern, and clean. The view is breathtaking, the staff are very nice and helpful. We liked the food at the restaurant too, they also have Polynesian dancing on Thursdays and Saturday nights which we enjoyed. This resort is quiet, and the pool was not crowded which I really liked. We stayed at another resort on our way back going home later in our trip and it was the same price as this place but not as nice at all. I definitely recommend this...

Relaxed stay at the hostel. The closest beach was being upgraded. Great daily breakfast and good company. The owners were very accommodating and kind. We had a great time at the hostel.
The hostel is a distance from Papeete, a public bus comes by ca. every hour. The beaches close by are for casual swimming.
