Since our reception until our check out, everything was so good! We stayed there about 5 days and all measl were so amazing. But the big difference is the guest relationship manager Jean Louis, he is very friendly with all guests. Congratulations for SOFITEL board to have him as your co-worker. More

I'm surprised by recent disappointing reviews. I went to Sofitel Private Island and stayed there for four nights at the end of Dec and I was totally pleased. We (4 people traveling together) wrote to Sofitel about 2 weeks before our departure and asking for overwater room 128 and 129, didn't get a positive response as they couldn't promise to... More

The facilities were nice and the reception good. But the restaurant was a bit disappointing: the service was messy (they brought us the bill while we were still waiting to make the order for the dessert), the food quite basic for the price, the tahitian dance show a bit "amateur". The breakfast was really expensive, 30€, without mention of the... More

I stayed at the Sofitel in December 2011 with my husband. We spent four days on Bora Bora, and wanted to have an experience on the mainland as well as on one of the motus. We therefore stayed at Le Meridien for two days, then transferred to the Sofitel for two days. After coming from Le Meridien, the Sofitel was... More

Stayed here for 3 nights in a overwater bungalow in the motu. We picked this resort over others because our friends who had been to Bora Bora (also according to the internet) said the Sofitel has the best snorkeling. This part we totally agreed. Even in the waters right outside of our OWB the snorkeling is amazing! A LOT of... More

This was dissapointing! Unlike Moorea, we did not find as many "friendly" and gracious natives; either Tahitian or French. The descriptive we would use is "arrogant." The Sofitel facility is gorgeous, and in a very nice setting. As other reviewers note, the check-in is time-wasteful. We were showed to our "luxury" overwater bungalow - and immediately asked for any other... More

We had part of our honeymoon in Bora Bora in January 2011 at the sofitel Beach resort. We had a great time, but I must say that this is one of the less appealing properties on Bora Bora. However, if you can only afford this place, it's still awesome just to be "there". The food at the restaurant was terrible... More

My wife and I just returned from our honeymoon, booked through Tahiti Travel Planners. We spent six nights at the Sofitel Bora Bora Marara (not the private island) in an over-water bungalow and had a wonderful time. After getting our baggage at BOB, the staff took our luggage, directed us to the boat, and we were off to the Sofitel.... More

We stayed for three days in May 2011, on the private 'motu'. From the airport pick up to departure the service is excellent. The views are stunning, as is the snorkelling in the turquoise water. The place is pricey - along with all of Bora Bora, but this is one of the more reasonable options. We had a 'semi-overwater' bungalow,... More
