The Sofitel is very expensive, so one would expect top rate service. The setting is beautiful, and the water is so clear and calm. We could snorkel right off of our balcony which we thoroughly enjoyed.
However, we were very disappointed in the service.
We arrived via the ferry from Tahiti. We had to take a cab to the hotel...

Sofitel Moorea Beach is conveniently located near the ferry terminal. It is advisable to pre-arrange transport to hotel as the local taxi fares are not cheap. The bungalow we stayed in is nicely placed near the beach with great views of the reef and the nearby beach. The inside area is well spaced with the bathroom located behind the partition...

Lovely room (luxury over-water bungalow), with a great rainfall shower in the bathroom and a quick post-snorkel fresh water rinsing shower on the deck. Direct access into the lagoon off the private deck, lots of younger fish swimming in this area. Fabulous infinity pool by the bar and restaurant. Plan on going back and spending more than the 3 days...

We stayed at Sofitel Moorea Ia Ora Beach Resort for 3 nights before we went on A Paul Gauguin cruise. We took the 35 minute ferry from Tahiti over to Moorea. Very easy to do. Taxi's are a rip off for a 4 minute taxi ride at 20 miles an hour and we timed it it cost $20 book your...

The Sofitel Moorea la Ora Beach Resort was beautiful but the service was average at best. This started at the reception during check in and continued throughout our three days there, particularly in the restaurant we used a couple of times (Pure). Relative to cabins, I highly recommend 117, 119 and 120 - at the end of the pier with...

We had booked a Garden bungalow and it was worth all the money paid for. Their garden bungalow's are placed very close to beach and we could see the beach from our room. The rooms were great so was the lagoon and the staff was wonderful. I would definately recommend this hotel, though its a little far from all the...

Stayed in an overwater bungalow for 4 nights, absolute heaven! Beautiful room, with excellant snorkelling on your doorstep. Dived with the hotel scuba diving team a couple times, would recommend the 0800 shark dive. Food a little pricey in hotel but you expect that before you arrive, a good tip would be to buy snacks and baguettes on Tahiti before...

We spent 3 nights at the Sofitel in January, 2012, in a standard bungalow. Despite having rain a few days, the facility was fabulous and the breakfast was superb. We were able to enjoy the beach and the grounds, which were wonderful. Staff was great and having a car with us enabled us to enjoy the spectacular island of Moorea...

We stayed for 4 days last year but I have only got around to writing this review now. It was great. We had a overwater bungalow near the end of the pontoon and the views were beautiful. Being able to go and snorkel off your own private deck was lovely. The rooms are wonderfully equipped and the glass window in...
