I had a very nice stay at Maitai Express Tahiti. The room was clean, modern, and comfortable, with everything I needed for a short visit. The air conditioning and Wi-Fi worked perfectly, and the bed was very comfortable. The location is great — right in Papeete, close to shops, restaurants, and the ferry terminal. The staff were friendly and helpful, and check-in was fast and easy. It’s a great choice if you’re looking for a convenient, simple place to stay in the city. I would definitely come back.

    About 90% of excursions were water related activities and if that’s not your passion it’ll take a bit of effort to find nature, culture options. What I didn’t like as a solo traveler is that Viator tours were mainly required a couple/2 person minimim booking. Thankfully booking.com excursions was a life saver. Most restaurants are closed between 2-5 pm so keep that in mind. I’m not a foodie so I didn’t explore the fine dining options. Papeete lacks a robust night life, it’s more a “get away from real life” and relax that caters to water sports types. I realized I’m a “city girl” type so after 3 days of chilling I was restless.

    Papeete is a dump! We expected more from the French.

    Papeete is a dump! We expected more from the French. Very 3rd world, unsafe water, no sidewalks, trash and graffiti abounds, bums begging, dirty drainage canals, and for this you are charged extremely high prices for everything! Bora bora wasn't much better... Moorea was nice. We took a cruise to the Marquesas and Tuamotus which were still unspoiled and gorgeous with genuine natives. The islands are stunning, but just go to Hawaii.

    Papeete itself is very bland and the market is over-rated (in my opinion). I wished I had planned properly and spent few nights at Moorea, but I didn't know what to expect. Rookie mistake 🫣 Lessons learnt. Despite mixed advice from the locals, I felt safe walking at night, which is a positive outlook for the Island 🙏 As many reviewers have mentioned, Papeete is only a good stopover to the other islands 🏝 😀 The 2 highlights of my stay was the day trip to Moorea, doing the safari excursions and the cultural night at the InterContinental Hotel.

    Over-all it was great. We spent 7 days on Tahiti, plus a half-day excursion on Moorea. 5 days on Tahiti would probably be enough. Next time we will visit a couple of others islands for a few days. Good food and shopping in Papeete.

    Spending a day or two there would have been enough, there was obvious poverty, with multiple homeless people. Not what I expected at all. I hired a car to visit the sites, but when I was driving around, everything looked closed, or uninviting. As a solo tourist, this wasn't the best place to visit. If I had known better, I would have book a night & visited the different islands.

    The people are what make it so good.

    The people are what make it so good. Very polite people who appear to be honest and kind. The shopping mall across the road from the Hilton was a wonderful place with a food hall and a good supermarket. We enjoyed a day trip to Moorea and a taxi trip around that island. Also the 5-hour Tahiti group trip and the boat trip. I did not do any snorkelling as I do not swim and I thought perhaps an activity in knee-high water could have been included in the boat trip. The Museum of the Islands was a good activity.

    This hotel gave us mixed feelings. The suite was very nice and clean, looked recently renovated. The lobby as well, looks very good. The outside of the hotel though, looks really bad, and so does the swimming pool area, with missing tiles, and fitness devices deposited near the pool. Hotels in Papeete are very expensive, but this one was not cheap either. The room looked 4*, but the outside looks like a 2*. It's a pity, as with some renovation work it would be an ok hotel. A good thing is the hotel has a very spacious garage.

    The hotel advertises that the owners arrange transfers to and from the airport and port. We were welcomed at the airport and driven to the hotel which is on various levels meaning that suitcases have to be carried up or down stairs. We were staying four nights and the hotel had arranged a hire car for us. All very efficient. A plus was that they agreed to get our laundry done for us. The only communal facility is a terrace with a small bar. This is very popular locally.

    Location is half way between the airport and Papeete downtown. Located across the road from Pacific Plaza, which houses a large supermarket and pharmacy. There is a bus service from outside the resort to downtown. The resort and rooms are maintained in excellent condition.
