Le Taha'a by Pearl Resorts

This is a magical place, we knew it the minute we stepped off the solar powered shuttle on to the resort. We have arrived someplace very very special. Immediately we were greeted by a lovely young woman who graced our necks with sweet smelling lays. Then a tattooed man playing a ukulele serenaded us to our delight. Little did we know this man was the mascot of the resort and was the fire dancer at the Polynesian show. After we were taken to reception where we checked in. The process was easy breezy and very refreshing too after given a warm wash cloth and a fruity drink which was delicious. After we were checked in we were given a tour of the resort and information we needed to know about restaurants and bars on our way to our OWB. When we opened the door to our OWB we were blown away by the spaciousness of the room , the beautiful views of the water and mountains. I knew then this is what heaven must look like. The bedding was top notch, the bathroom was very private with separate sinks and separate toilet and shower. All details of this OWB were so tastefully appointed and so elegant. Our outside deck was extensive which gave us privacy from our neighbors. We couldn’t be happier with the quality to detail in this beautiful OWB. The restaurants were all beautiful but we mainly stayed in the main restaurant that I like to call the Tree House. It is so beautiful and you are actually in the trees overlooking the beach , lagoon and mountains. What a gorgeous view for breakfast and dinner. There are other restaurants on site but we only ate here every night because the food was just that good and the selection plentiful. The pool area is also very beautiful, it is an infinity pool that overlooks the beach. It was well maintained and very quiet most days. The umbrellas are oversized so you don’t get sun burnt. Lounge chairs are very comfortable too. Now to the real treat. The coral gardens snorkeling site right at the end of this property. It’s spectacular because the coral is alive and thriving. The fish are extensive in species and an abundance of fish which is hard to find these days. We spent most of our time snorkeling here at this site. I’ve got to give a shout out to my travel agent Claudia from Pacific For Less because with her knowledge she guided us to this remarkable resort. This 5 star resort is really a pearl. This is our trip of a lifetime on our 40th Anniversary. My heaven on earth

We used Pacific For Less to book stays at Le Taha’a and Le Bora Bora Hotels. I highly recommend doing both and using this travel agency for the best pricing and help in coordinating everything! The travel team seamlessly organized the flights to spend more time on the islands and less time in the airports. We have been to Bora Bora many times, but this was our first trip to Taha’a. Le Taha’a is more spread out and quiet. I would call it more romantic and unspoiled. Le Bora Bora has that great view of the mountain, however. We took more excursions in Bora but the fish population is great around the Taha’a resort without having to take a tour. The rooms are huge and we especially like the ones with a little pool. Eat at the pool restaurant for some variety. The management team is so kind and helpful at this resort. You feel the love of the island from Jackson and Laurent! See you all on the next trip!

Gorgeous small resort. Less than 60 suites. The boat journey & welcome party are memorable. We occupied villa 51 with its almost private beach. Very spacious with an equally spacious bathroom. Courtyard with a plunge pool. Who needs a pool when you are feet away from turquoise water? Filling water bottles provided for you to fill up @ various water stations. Brilliant idea. But don’t go & pay 6 € for a bottle at the table! Bring your water bottle with you. Food expensive but on an island resort one doesn’t expect cheap. A green salad in a tiny cereal bowl will cost you 6 €. The food generally is really top. We did give the gourmet restaurant a miss as it was going to cost 150 € + wine. Too many families around. We had to complain as the kids next door were screaming in their paddling pool. We were offered a very generous upgrade but in the end the noise quieted & we could stay & carry on enjoying our lovely beach. If you are not bothered about a beach go for an over water villa as there are less families. The coral garden is amazing. Don’t forget reef shoes ( fins not allowed)

The staff are so hospitable, friendly, and joyful. Very clean and well maintained. Delicious food. Buffet is clean and continually refreshed. Highly recommend and plan to return!

The location , service and staff were outstanding. The resort truly lived up to the R and C brand. We thoroughly enjoyed the food, the famous corral gardens and the warmth of the people. We can not wait to return.
