I definitely would recommend this hotel, one of the finest I have had the pleasure of staying at. The food, however, is outrageously expensive, so we recommend using your refrigerator in your room and go to the local market (quick boat ride away) and stock up on local bread (but get there early 'cause it goes fast), cheese, fruit and we used coconut ice cream for our coffee. If you are a coffee addict bring a travel pot and coffee because all you get there is Folger's crystals There is a restaurant and a bar on the Motu. Guests who stay here have privileges at the sister hotel, Sofitel Marara where there is a pool, water activities, tennis, shopping and beachfront restaurant with a bar. Some of the rooms are over the water bungalows; ours had a great view of Mount Otemanu. Others are up on the hillside or on the beach. They all have A/C, satellite TV and computer modems.
The hotels were orignially built by Dino de Laurentis for his movie "Hurricane". Although the movie flopped, the property did not. Over the water bungalow on small island. You can walk down your steps and into the ocean to go snorkeling. There is a hole in floorr covered by plexiglass, at night you can turn on a light and watch the fish swim by.

| | | | Bora Bora Dive Resort: Eat, Dive and Sleep | Tip Rating: Satisfaction:  | | | | |
Bora Bora Dive Resort has 9 "Tahitian style" bungalows with 3 on the water. It's run by Top Dive (see my sport tip). A perfect place to stay during your diving trip. The restaurant, Kon Tiki (see my restaurant tip) at the resort is one of the best French Polynesian style restaurants on the island. The room was comfortable with large bed (mattress was a little too hard for me), desk, sofa, and table. Bath/shower, and separate toilet all in your room. Nice deck over the water. It's air conditioned, but we really didn't need to use it in early April. But be aware, if you leave the door or a window opened, you'll have some visitors such as lizard and crab. :) A family of puff-fish lived under our deck. I tried to feed them, but they weren't interested. By the way, there's no TV (some rooms have), radio, not even a clock in a room. It's the best way to spend your vacation. (There are several outlets for electricity in a room, if you must listen to iPod, etc.) Leave a Comment Theme: HotelPrice: US$180 and up » Currency ConverterComparison: about averageAddress: Vaitape, Bora BoraPhone: +689-605050Directions: The resort is about 10min walk from the city center where all the gift shops are.

| | | | Hotel Le Matai Polynesia: Overwater bungalow - our room | Tip Rating: Satisfaction: | | | | |
Our overwater bungalow had a ceiling fan but no air-conditioning. But as you are so close to the water, you don't really need one. The room was furnished with a king-size bed, writing desk, blackout curtains, television, mini-bar, fridge, personal safe, shower with massage nozzle, hair dryer, extension mirror and full length mirror in the bathroom and sliding glass door onto a private terrace.
