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.

Leili Home is a very comfortable and well located apartment perfect for a short or long stay in Papeete. It had everything we needed, was tastefully furnished, well appointed and so close to restaurants, the supermarket and an easy walk into the main part of town. The host was incredibly friendly, helpful and responsive and for a small fee even drove us to the airport for our late night flight. Best of all the apartment was exceptional value for money. Would definitely stay here again.

Heiata was such a lovely host. Very kind and caring and really helped us a lot. She was just amazing. Close to town and easy to walk to waterfront and market. All amenities were very clean and tidy. We loved the cats that came to visit us too. The view to the mountains was fabulous. We highly recommend Heiata's Lodge and would stay there again.

The apartment is on a good location. 10 min walk from Carrefour and about the same to the downtown. Apartment has all you need for a few days stay (and more if you need). Beautiful sea view because the building is a little bit on a hill. Everything was very smooth and easy from the beginning till the end of our stay. Tunui was very professional. Lovely apartment. Communal swimming pool (very decent size)was an additional value to all our expectations. We are very happy with our choice and whenever possible we will come back to Tunui's apartment again.

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.

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.

2017 on our stopover from the Tuamotus we stayed at Faire Suisse. We were impressed then and more so now. We stayed in the new extension and although basic it is exceptionally clean and comfortable. The location is ideal with walking access to central Papette, the marina and Champion supermarket. Their airport shuttle is a great service that is very well organised. The new restaurant/bar has a great atmosphere. Fantastic to see that they have expanded the hotel, as they deserve to do well, as they provide great service.

Everything we needed for a quick overnight stop in Papeete. Close to the port & airport, and walking distance to shops. Space was really spacious and comfortable with everything we needed to cook a simple meal. Easy to access the property with the host’s instructions and great communication from the host too. Thanks for a great stay, would definitely recommend!

The apartment was perfect for 2 people and had everything we needed. It was close to the local supermarket and to the beach area. The town centre was only a short walk away. Taonui, our landlord, was brilliant. He got up early to get us to the airport for our flight home.

The grounds were wonderful and so was the swimming pool. I loved eating breakfast over looking the beach, superb views. The receptionist was very helpful when I arrived and arranged all taxis and airport transfers as requested

Central Papeete was 15 walking from Fare Rearea. Room spacious and clean and had a private garden to eat in. Breakfast was provided with variety. Perhaps closer to normal Papeete living than more expensive downtown hotels.
