Intercontinental Le Moana Resort Bora Bora, An Ihg Hotel

“Beautiful resort with many restaurants nearby!!!”

We stayed on overwater bungalows and they were simply amazing. Water was knee deep and we enjoyed swimming and snorkling. The hotel is attached to main land and there are two great restaurants in walking distance. Breakfast buffet is great, we loved it everyday.

“Thoroughly enjoyed our experience here !”

Stayed here for one night in Bora Bora in an OWB. Really appreciated the customer service at this hotel! They were able to accommodate an early check in AND a late check out which allowed us to make the most out of our time. Upon check in the General Manager also greeted us and thanked us for being IHG members and she also checked in with us the next morning at breakfast. Would highly recommend staying here as the Le Moana offers the overwater bungalows at some of the most affordable rates on the island while not compromising on service . It’s also optimally located the main island near Matira Beach so you can check out local shops and restaurants without being isolated. The snorkeling is really nice around the hotel being close to Matira and you can even spot sting rays from your bungalow. Kayaks and snorkel gear on site included in your stay. The bungalow itself was obviously stunning and we were able to have an outside massage company come set up as well which was really nice. Another nice touch to the service is they give you complimentary reusable water bottles (which are really nice quality) that you can refill on site instead of wasting the plastic. 10/10 recommend! Thank you to the staff for excellent service and making our stay great!

Seamless transfer from the airport to the resort by boat across the lagoon. Personally greeted on arrival at resort jetty, escorted to reception for registration. Ambassador Diamond Elite status recognised and thanked for our loyalty. Shown around the resort, we were informed that there was a supermarket and a couple of restaurants within a couple of minutes walk from the resort. Then we were escorted to our overwater villa. Some nice gifts awaited us in the Villa, 2 cool water bottles to use and keep during our stay, a resort tee shirt, and a sarong along with welcoming letter. Later in the evening, a complementary half bottle of champagne was delivered to our villa so we could celebrate our wedding anniversary. The passion shown from Madame Laurence Levy for her guests flows down to all the staff members. None could be faulted. We were personally found by Laurence and welcomed, and she enquired each day if everything was okay. Lovely Villa, clean, fully furnished, and being able to descend into the lagoon from the outside terrace. Snorkelling around the villas was fantastic with a vast variety of tropical fish to see. Our highlight was that no matter how often a Ray swam by, especially the leopard Ray, we would rush to see them. The hotel is very aware of the environment and has a programme of regeneration of coral. There is a 'Happy Hour' with a good choice of cocktails to choose from each evening in a pleasant setting overlooking looking the overwater villa and the lagoon. There are two restaurants to choose from with indoors and outside seating. Breakfast was a typical affair, both hot and cold, with eggs cooked to order. The hotel also offers free non motorised water sports and a tour desk on site. If asked to name a staff member who stood out, I couldn't as they all went above and beyond and are true ambassadors for the Intercontinental group. In all, a very enjoyable relaxing  stay at a first-class resort set in a beautiful picturesque setting on the island and would definitely recommend it.

We stayed in an overwater bungalow for the experience. The hotel is very beautiful, but definitely dated. It’s small compared to the St. Regis, and was very serene and quiet. We did have a few hiccups, but the staff was absolutely wonderful. They are very friendly, welcoming, and accommodating. There are paddle boards, kayaks, and snorkel gear included in your stay. The room was spacious enough for 2-3 people comfortably. I think 4 would be a little too cozy, but there is plenty of deck space, and a large enough bathroom. During our stay, we saw 2 snorkelers swim under our bungalow, probably because our room had the best reef underneath it (42). The hotel is conveniently located, very close to a little grocery store, the amazing Lucky House restaurant, and Marama Tattoo. It’s about a 15 minute drive to the main town. The breakfast buffet had options and was very good. I read a review that said this was more a 3-star hotel, and I was hoping I would disagree. In terms of the grounds, facilities, and amenities, 3 stars is accurate. A facelift is necessary and they were doing renovations while we were there, although we could not hear the work. In terms of staff, location, character, and overall value: 4.5-5 stars. We would definitely consider staying here again.
