"Room was clean and AC worked. The property looked a little run down in areas, including parts of our room. Several hornets/wasps and other kinds of bugs kept making their way into our room despite the doors being closed and reporting the problem to reception. They must’ve been coming through a hole somewhere. The breakfast was basic and never changed, which was kind of a drag when staying for a week. Moreover, the breakfast was mediocre and very basic- bread, eggs, cereal, bacon, sausage, fruit, cheese, butter, pastries and cakes, rice, beans, and sliced cold meats. The property was clean and the staff was friendly. The location wasn’t great for food options within walking/biking distance. It was limited. One of the more budget friendly places in Bora Bora, so that’s the trade off I suppose. "

"There was nothing wrong with this property. But, there was nothing exceptional either. The grounds were bland, very small beach, OK pool area and honestly not much to do. We were disappointed."
"Best stay yet. Bora Bora is gorgeous even when it rains. The Westin and the service we received was top tier. Everyone here was super friendly and helpful. Will definitely come back here one day. "
"Great spot for the price. Beautiful, quiet views. Biggest concern was the room not being sealed from the environment (considerable amount of ants, a couple wasps, etc.). Nothing I didn’t anticipate having read other reviews. I still give a 5 because the villa has so much character and the view is so spectacular. If they sealed the rooms better I’d be more certain I’d be back."
"There was lots to do on and off the resort. The water was prestine. Lots of families with children were there. Riding there bikes and swimming. The view was amazing and the sea life i.e.turtles and fish right outside the overwater bunglows was so nice to see. I have waited many years to come to Bora Bora and the St. REGIS knocked out of the park. The mountain view was very beautiful but so were all the other views. We will be back for sure. Also the food was very good compared to what we had in Tahiti."
"This is an awesome place - lovingly created and cared for by the owners. There is beautiful art all around and the view is amazing. But keep in mind that it's not for everyone. It's set back on a hill in the jungle. Getting to the beach involves riding a bike 15-20 minutes or renting a scooter or car. We got a car. I wouldn't recommend it for seniors, young children or people with mobility issues. There are some steps down to the bathroom and the walkways can be a little tricky for older folks. "
