I must say, the Intercontinental Hotel Le Moana in Bora Bora is in a great location. The beautiful sunsets at Matira Beach were phenomenal. The staff was very friendly, and the Manager, Barbara, did everything she could to make our stay great! She succeeded. I cannot say enough about her and her team. We will definitely come back soon, and try to get a group of our friends to come along with us.

Absolutely AMAZING! A true paradise. The staff is amazing and are the facilities are first rate. Our room, #6, was an over the water bungalow, with a view of the mountains. The room was excellent, the bed was very comfortable, the bathroom was clean and spacious. Being over the water was amazing! We just walked off our deck into the Pacific and wonderful snorkeling.Everything about the Intercontinental ale Moana was wonderful. We cannot recommend it enough.

IC Moana is comfortable, cozy resort with friendly staff that has a very relaxed and island life type of feel to it and is in a great location for exploring the main island. This was our second trip to Bora Bora and we knew we wanted to spend more time on the main island to meet with locals we had met last year, try different restaurants and just generally have more time to explore the main island. We are very happy we picked IC Moana as the service was outstanding (exceeding our expectations), the overwater room was a ton of fun with the glass coffee table, the lagoon was filled with fish. First, the GM Laurence Levy deserves tremendous credit for how she manages this resort. We saw her every morning at breakfast checking on us and all the other guests to make sure we were having a great stay. Every one of the staff we talked to were very friendly and helpful starting from when we set foot on the resort to the day of departure. In fact, Ms. Levy took the time to come to the dock to see us off even though we were the only guests leaving on that particular shuttle boat. Dining options on-site are not as expansive as other resorts but at the same time, you are not captive to having to take a shuttle boat to get to town. Hence, this resort is the perfect base for exploring Matira beach that is right across from the entrance, going to town for shopping or to try the food trucks, or going to any of the restaurants on the main island. Some restaurants even offer free pick-up and drop-off for dinner so check with the restaurant or have the concierge check for you before arranging a taxi. We enjoyed being able to get a better feel for island life but still being able to come back to our bungalow in the evenings. The bungalows may not be as large or as fancy as rooms at other resorts but they are perfectly maintained, clean, and comfortable. They also do have a very neat feature which is the glass coffee table that opens up into the lagoon. Coral formations and fish are right there for your viewing. We spent hours just watching and had all types of fish show and even a sting ray show up! We scuba dive but still had tons of fun exploring the lagoon. It is shallow enough for you to stand so you can literally just walk around looking at and photographing the different fish and aquatic life here. They have lots of areas setup with coral propagation that then attracts the fish and other life in the lagoon. Moana also has decks at the ends of the walkways to the bungalows to capture pictures of beautiful sunrises. Overall, IC Moana is an outstanding value with service above and beyond what you would expect; is a perfect choice for those who want to get a feel for local life; and for those who want to explore and enjoy the main island. We very much look forward to our next visit and stay at IC Moana.…

Very nice paradise. My wife and I spent a few days here(and Thalasso as well); Not as fancy as Thalasso but LE Moana is definitly a great resort with its unique features. The location is convenient since it's on the main island and you can easily walk around for local stores or get pick-up for most tours. Food is good and reasonable priced, and wonderful staffs helps where ever needed. Over water rooms are superb; it's over shallow water thus you can walk into the water without wearing life jacket - and there're plenty of fish you can play with / watch in room under the table, especially at night where they will be attracted by light.

We stayed at InterContinental Le Moana Feb 2023 (end of pontoon OverWaterBungalow #28). This resort and it's location were exactly what we wanted. Our experience here was absolutely perfect, the staff were amazing! We had the buffet breakfast each day, included and never ate lunch, the buffet was so filling and had such a wide variety of foods. They have a nice happy hour in the evening with half price cocktails too! Don't miss out on the onion rings they serve in the VINI VINI Bar, they are amazing! My experience began two weeks before my arrival when I emailed the resort to confirm they had my reservation (made on Orbitz) and they confirmed that all the information was correct and that a "end of pontoon" OWB was waiting for me. There are only 4 "end of pontoon" OWB and they have the best views and are most private, so that was important! When I arrived, Constance Hokuh was our check in person, she was so friendly, and treated us like VIP's! She gave us a tour of the resort and walked us to our bungalow. The end of pontoon bungalows are a full 10 minute walk from the shore, it is way out there! We were also greeted by Laurence the Resort GM, who came out to personally welcome us and wish us a happy anniversary. She also sent champagne and macrons to our room as a welcome. I liked being on the main island for access to different restaurants and shopping. I highly recommend this resort!…

After spending 10 days at the Intercontinental Le Moana Bora Bora it was tough to get on the boat to start the journey home. Warm days, warm water and warm people made for a once in a lifetime trip. The resort is beautiful and the Over the Water Bungalows are absolutely breathtaking! Pictures do not due it justice. The bungalow was spacious, well appointed and well thought out. The bed was extremely comfortable with enough pillows for three beds. The refrigerator and A/C worked great and after a long day in the heat a cold drink and a cool place to sit and relax was much appreciated! The cherry on top was definitely the glass coffee table looking down into our personal aquarium and the top slid open to feed our new finned friends. The lagoon had really warm water and you can walk out a thousand feet before the water is over your head. The water is so clear you can see individual grains of sand on the lagoon floor. Fish are abundant and we saw several rays. The only negatives are the Sea Urchins waiting to ruin your vacation! They are numerous and move along the ocean floor so stay alert. The food was good but not great although one person in our party declared having the best hamburger of her life! Breakfast was the usual. Omelets, eggs to order, bacon, sausage, pancakes, crepes. fruit and pastries. Try the waffle on a stick and the chocolate croissants, they are both superb. Dinner was good to really good and the price was about average for the island. We did not try lunch. The staff was really great! Friendly and accommodating they would always greet you with a smile. They must take their cue from the General Manager Laurence Levy. She greeted all her guest everyday at breakfast to make sure that they had everything they needed and was always interested in your plans for the day and was ready with a suggestion if you asked! A special thank you to the hostess at breakfast and the guys at the towel / water sports hut, they truly made our vacation extraordinary! Mauru'uru to you all!…

Our greeting at Le Moana was very nice - some cold punch and personal help getting signed in and to our room. Our room was available early - barely had time to finish our Poisson Cru by the pool. Our room was neat, clean and very spacious. The decks were larger than other over-water bungalows we have stayed in and the water was like a giant, super-clean pool. Very nice added touch was the office area - outside of the bedroom with sliding doors to separate me while I worked (usually very early in the morning). Breakfast was great, even after 7 mornings! The entire staff was friendly and tended to our needs very well. A friendly urana was given with each encounter, be it in the restaurant, by room service or even the construction guys renovating one of the bungalows. Of special note: the manager was an omnipresent site. She was involved with everything going on all over the property. Great example of how to manage such a resort - great attention to detail and she seemed to have the respect and admiration of her staff. She even gave us hugs and a nice farewell as we boarded the ferry back to the airport. We will be back! Note: Other family members had the dinner deal. We enjoyed venturing out of the resort and found a few unexpected dining treasures only a short walk away. Our favorite was the Lucky House. The food was excellent and the wait-staff absolutely wonderful. Ask for Nelli's table - she was just adorable!…

Le Moana is one of the nicest resorts we have ever stayed at. Bar none. Our overwater bungalow was sparkling clean with a coffee table that opens up to feed the hundreds of tropical fish below. The staff are extremely friendly and helpful. The pool is also very beautiful. They have daily activities that are a lot of fun! The only negatives to report are: -The lunch items we had (burgers, pizza) were not good at all. -The shower in the bungalow was no enclosed, so you spray water everywhere. -Some staff seem to struggle with English. Overall though, this resort is AMAZING.

I loved our stay at Bora Bora Le Moana. I was worried that I had hyped up my ‘bucket list’ trip too much and that I would be disappointed with the reality of it …BUT Le Moana and Bora Bora far exceeded my expectations! I still am amazed by the many ever-changing colors of blues and greens of the water surrounding us. No picture I have ever seen or even taken while I was there can show the beauty of Bora Bora. The resort was incredibly beautiful, full of kind and friendly staff everywhere (including the amazing general manager Laurence) and was very clean and well kept-up. They have worked hard to provide authenticity, preserve their natural heritage and surroundings while assisting with coral protection and restoration. The views from our room, our deck, their restaurants and their entire resort were breathtaking and very hard to catch on camera. Our OWB was so perfect. I was completely obsessed with my under-bungalow, tropical fish and my fabulous glass coffee table. I spent a lot of time watching ‘my’ beautiful fish either from my bungalow OR snorkelling and floating around them. The layout, the super comfortable bed and all the extra amenities such as soaps, lotions, make-up table, mini-fridge, Nespresso machine and pods, water and ice machines close-by, beach towels, umbrellas, etc, made it hard to leave our own space. The cleaning staff were fantastic at refreshing and replenishing our room daily. The food and beverages were splendid. Every plate of food and prepared drink were picture-worthy and delicious. All of the serving staff are fabulous and made it too hard to pick a favorite. The buffet breakfast was not repetitive, the fruit and baking was so fresh and the egg station chefs were lovely and always made fresh crepes, pancakes and eggs to order. I am thankful that we stayed on the main island and got to experience the local culture. We were easily able to walk to the store for snacks and drinks (such as their local Tahiti Drinks or even Budweiser and Corona), rent a car and drive around the island or walk to the pizza house, as desired. We booked through Costco Travel and totally recommend their services!…

Beautiful hotel with wonderful service. You don't need a bungalow to enjoy this property. In fact, if you select a beach cabana, you can open your patio door and step onto the beach!!! If you are wondering whether it is worth the money...it is! Book it and have fun!
