Coral Gardens

I admit, when in FP I want the 5 star overwater bungalow experience…but we were blown away by the design, attention to detail and beauty of our room at Apatoa! Pinned as “Glamping” due to the structures it was anything but! On entering our room we were met with a five star interior! The pool is lovely, as was our private pool on the deck overlooking the lagoon. There is a beautiful fish filled reef just at the end of the dock. You can swim for hours with the fish, right out your front door! Dinners were impressive and the owners accommodating and friendly. The Island of Raiatea is laid back and peaceful. We highly recommend a visit to this hotel!

I didn’t like being billed for the boat to and from the island. They told me that since I booked through Expedia that was not included. Only told that at check out and we got on and off the boat with other people. Kind of sleezy. I don’t k ow whose fault that was,expedias or La Pearl
