Tahiti (Papeete) Cruise Reviews

You need local currency in this location. All good except that the ATM's don't take all credit/debit cards. Had to go the the bank and use different card to get any money. All tours at this location are good. If you take tour on board offers a bit more security at a premium price. ...

Walked in port area. Water front nice, back area a little shabby. ...

Bus ride around Tahiti. Guide was knowledgeable and friendly. Several brief stops. Tahiti did not meet my expectations of a beautiful white sandy beach paradise. Poverty and substandard housing detract from the image I had. ...

bit of a dump ...

Stayed at the Manava Resort, Excellent hotel one night. We love the market in Tahiti and the local food trucks. Great experience. ...

We stayed at the InterContinental Resort Tahiti for 6 nights. We were in the over water bungalows. Everything was fantastic. Booked with IHG and got buffet breakfast included. Good idea because breakfast will cost you about $80.00 for 2 people. Don't eat dinner there. Food wasn't worth the cost. Concierge personnel were very good. Pool area and grounds are awesome. Jet ski prices are very ...

Papeete is a fun city to walk around. The market, and many local shops. Lots of black pearl shops. ...

Since we disembarked at 0900 and plane wasn't until 2230, we reserved a room at the Fare Suisse hotel for about $100. They picked us up at the ship and took us to the Airport for our flight. Meanwhile we had a nice place for a nap and shower close to town. No pool but lovely terrace, good price and location. ...

Excellent guide - nice to see Tahiti. ...

The Intercontinental Hotel is lovely as you are OFF the ship and service is AMAZING. Unfortunately the airport was terrible (open air and humidity beyond belief.) First Class airport 'lounge' (open air, top level) was awful. ...
