Spacious flat with well-equipped and stocked kitchen. But what I especially appreciated is the super nice and helpful host, who for a small extra fee picked me up from and dropped me off at the airport, making for a super smooth experience. Thank you!

The place was clean, spacious, and comfortable. The location was also close to the cruise port where we disembarked. But , most importantly, our host Thomas was exceptional. He welcomed us and even went above and beyond to accommodate our needs. Thank you, Thomas, from Harry and Umblita, Canada.

    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.

    Marietta was absolutely lovely and kind and did the best she could to help me throughout my time in Papeete. She even invited me on a boat trip! The apartment was excellent, very comfortable, very clean, well equipped and had everything I needed for my stay. The internet worked wonderfully. Some people wrote in past reviews that the hill was really steep. I did not find this at all. All I can say is that those people must have been really unfit! I would definitely stay here again. Airport transfers were also organised for me.

    Carlos picked us up from the airport despite our plane getting in after 1-30am. He delivered us to the apartments and provided a good explanation. Also dropped us to and picked us up from our cruise ship and finally he dropped us out to the airport when we left Papeete. There is an Ezy Market shop with a good range of packaged food and pre=prepare meals, alcohol, drinks etc within 400m.

    Reva was excellent as she picked us up from the airport at 1.30am, which was very kind of her. The apartment was very clean and had everything we needed for our short stay in Papeete. The location was perfect as it was close to the city centre, to the ferry dock and by the waterfront.
