    Getting to the hotel was very easy. We arrived via flight, and the shuttle service was easy to find. Upon arrival, we were greeted with leis. Our room wasn't ready as we arrived rather early. However, it was walking distance to an Avis where we were able to get a rental for the day. We stayed in an ocean view room, and it did not disappoint! Beach access was great; you can eat at a restaurant that's located right on the beach. Across the street from the restaurant (on the same side the hotel is on), you have La Plage where you can book activities and have access to towels, etc. Maitai was a great introduction to Bora Bora and while we only stayed there for a day, it was a wonderful experience! Pictures don't do the view justice!

    Very small beach. Too small for the number of hotel guests. Was packed, so we could not use it. No swimming pool. Our neighbors were smoking cigarettes and cannabis without interruption and the wind was bringing the smoke and odors into our room, which is not good, especially when travelling with a 1 year-old baby. So we could not enjoy the balcony and had to live with closed windows... This made the >300eur night too expensive for the overall quality of the stay.

    Extremely friendly staff, Nice view from the room.

    Restaurant staff very unfriendly.

    We stayed in an overwater bungalow and enjoyed it SO MUCH! We were lucky to have the chance to check in a little bit earlier. It was the most beautiful stay all along our 3 weeks journey through French Polynesia. We were even able to pick up our breakfast from the restaurant to the room, that has been a plus for us. The reception staff has been very friendly and helpful. The reef in front of the bungalow is worth to snorkel along and there were many fish around the bungalow and we even saw sting rays. It is not the same like on the outer lagoon reefs but really nice.

    The reception included usd 100 on the bill for the transfer to the airport, but we never asked for it. We arranged our own transfer for usd 30. The reception was unpleasant to our taxi driver when he picked us up, as if he deprived them of revenue. Not a nice experience. Better to arrange your own transfer because the hotel fee is outrageous.

    location was great. compared with the other hotels on Bora Bora it was a great deal.

    Maitai Bora Bora nice place to stay without getting stuck on your resort

    The garden view rooms are ok. Somewhat older style and probably could use some updating but are clean and functional. If you can get an over-the-water bungalow, that would be ideal. The sealife at their bungalows is probably better than the InterContinental, which sits in a sandy area with no coral. The WiFi was very slow at rush hour (mid-morning and evening to late night). They need a better system. I couldn't make 2 conference calls because the WiFi was so slow.

    The location near Matira is very good. The beach, the docks, and the over-the-water bungalows are across the street. The over-the-water bungalows have some re-stored coral reefs that are very cool to snorkel and check out. You can rent a car or bicycle at Avis, or wander down to the InterContinental Le Moana for dining, or The Lucky House Fare, or Bora Bora Beach Club, and of course the resort's own dining locations. There are also two small grocery stores on either side. Due to the local ownership, it has the most local staff, the staff are very friendly, and the guides are excellent for the activities via La Plage Excursions. You learn a lot about the history. Because we traveled around the island, we explored most of Bora Bora and were able to see some of the outer motus, which made us realize that if you stay on the outer motus you are kind of stuck there.
