### Sofitel Kia Ora Moorea Beach Resort

10/10 Excellent

"We stayed here during our honeymoon for 3 nights in a beach front bungalow. Can’t recommend this place enough. This was our 2nd favorite lodging during our trip where we stayed at 7 different lodgings (only behind one of the 5 star resorts on bora bora). If we visited again we would choose Sofitel again over the other resorts on Moorea offering OWBs. The staff was incredibly friendly our entire time there, and all food options come highly recommended. Do not be cheap and avoid the resort breakfast - it is well worth it. The room was very clean & we had easy access to the nearby lagoon where we had some of the best casual snorkeling of our trip. One of our highlights at Sofitel was the beach front romance dinner through restaurant K - we were picked up from our bungalow at our reservation time & dropped back off after. We also had an amazing spa session while there. The only downside for the short term is part of the property was beginning renovations when we were leaving (including the spa moving to a smaller location on site with potentially more limited offerings) in late October. Overall we would 100% stay at Sofitel in the future again. "

"Our stay at the St. Regis Bora Bora was nothing short of magical. The grounds are absolutely breathtaking, exquisitely manicured, pristine, and truly paradise in every direction. The service throughout the resort was exceptional, warm, and genuine. Everyone we encountered made us feel so welcomed and cared for. A very special thank you to Marion, our hotel liaison, for making everything absolutely perfect from start to finish and for the incredibly warm welcome. Thank you also to Teva for the wonderful hospitality and excellent service. To all the staff across the restaurants, housekeeping, grounds, and butler service, your attention to detail, kindness, and professionalism made our stay unforgettable. The food was fantastic, the resort spotless, and every moment felt effortless. We can’t wait to come back to this beautiful, breathtaking place. Highly recommended in every way! "
