The Hilton Moorea was a very beautiful and relaxing destination for me and my family. The hospitality shown to our family during this visit was outstanding. This exceptional experience started with a kind and very helpful staff at the front desk. Shuttle service was great to an from our well designed/appointed over-the-water bungalows. The sunsets were stunning and atmosphere was relaxed, complimenting the island lagoon beauty. The amenities included a delicious diverse breakfast buffet containing an international flair with Polynesian/French influences.The servers were very polite and attentive. A special note of excellence was the Bar and Grill at the Beach which provided a good kids gluten free menu (provided for free for children under 12 years old). The food was served fresh, hot and was very delicious. Great service! Kudos to the food management!
The complimentary room mini-bar was a wonderful surprise. The pool and many water activities (e.g., snorkeling, kayaking, paddle boarding, etc.), tennis court and workout facility was provided complimentary for guests.
Over-water bungalows contained a viewing glass area and back deck walk down to convenient and spectacular back porch snorkeling with views of diverse pacific basin tropical fish including sting rays and sharks. Lighting under the bungalow was provided for easy in-room and back deck night time viewing.
However,maintenance is needed to maintain over-water wooden walkways (which had substantially deteriorated since our last visit in 2012). The over-water bungalow wooden railings were loose which created a safety issue (e.g., numerous trip hazards due to loose boards and some screws sticking up through the some walkway boards, loose/wobbly over-water bungalow back deck railings, roof thatch damage, etc.).
Overall a very nice experience.
