The Sofitel Tahiti Maeva is located just minutes away from the international airport in Tahiti. Sadly, this is one of the only qualities worth noting about this hotel. The Sofitel is nothing more than a glorified run-down motel. Sure, upon initial entry into the lobby you don't think your experience will be that bad. Marble floors, fountain, view of the... more

Nice, clean hotel and very convenient to the airport & bus route. No place to park our car rental and had to bus or taxi once we got there. Great pool with bar & happy hr. They charge heavily for late checkouts but keep luggage for late air departures. Food was good and staff helpful. more

My husband and I stayed here the first night of our honeymoon after getting into Tahiti at night. The rooms are basic but had everything we needed for our short stay. By the time we got checked in and settled, it was after 8pm, and when we went looking for food, the only option was an expensive dinner buffet at... more

I was very disappointed with this hotel. The room was dingy and looked liked it needed a thorough cleaning. The shower spewed water all over the bathroom floor, and the sink leaked. The gounds of the hotel were beautiful but the pool tile needed cleaning. The buffet, although decent, was very pricey and service was poor. more

Sinks in both rooms leak due to sink setting on top of counter. Food was excellent but very pricy ($58. per person for buffet... more

Everyone gathers in the evening around the pool and beach area for drinks and snacks but mostly to watch the sun set over Morea - this is a... more

My wife stayed one night at this hotel last week. We flew in to Tahiti for a cruise and were loking for something close to the airport and downtown. This is a lovely hotel. When we arrived we checked in and found that our room was a smoking room although we had requested a non-smoking rom. We called the front... more

what a disappointment! we had 3 days to get off the boat and have some R&R before a 6 week charter. we booked through the yacht's agent (pacific avenues, tres $$$$), and she got us the "bargain" price of $200/night! we were mighty peeved when our friends booked it through hotels.com for $99/night...i think that $50/night would be more like... more
