The water in the shower never did get hot. The gal at the front desk said to let it run 15 minutes it it never got hot. Fortunately the weather was warm so a warm shower was fine. The resort is very pretty with amazing sunset views however there weren’t any lounge chairs for the beach. Everyone lined up and stood on the beach to watch the sunset. I had a great mojito made with fresh lime and fresh mint. Really tasty but $28!!! Ask before you request

The deluxe bungalow was so nice inside with all the modern conveniences but had a thatched roof giving you an authentic Polynesian experience. The bed and linens were very comfortable and the bathroom had 2 beautiful sinks and walk in shower. The kitchenette was an added plus! The pool was wonderful and ocean view and beach were beautiful. The on site Sunset Grill was convenient but we only had 1 dinner there since there are plenty of local restaurants nearby. We would definitely stay here again if we return to Moorea!

We were on a cruise which ended in Papeete. We decided to spend an additional 2 nights in the area and chose Moorea due to proximity by ferry. I researched hotels and chose Hibiscus due to the excellent ratings and price. The hotel exceeded my expectations. I booked a deluxe bungalow by the beach and we had a view of the ocean from our room. The bed was comfortable and we enjoyed the use of fridge, microwave and hot pot. There is a small shopping area within walking distance that has stores and restaurants. We ate twice at Sea you soon. I did not see many groceries to buy for snacks or breakfast at the grocery store but they did have good Tahiti lotions, oils, and soaps. The taxi fare from ferry is about 6000xpf. The ocean by the hotel is okay for swimming but not snorkeling. I was told that a better public snorkeling beach is Tipaniers about 2-3 miles away. The staff at hotel were friendly, welcoming, and helpful. We would definitely recommend.I’m

They helped us prepare the tuna and cook it together. We shared the tuna with other hotel visitors. It was the best tuna :). There were also kayaks on-site that we can use. The room was super clean and organized. We will come back again. Thank you for a fantastic stay.

Budget friendly.

On arrival at check in we were told breakfast was included. Then at check out we were told we had to pay, not the best service there. Plus breakfast is very basic. The same fruit salad is wheeled out each day that swims in juice. Then it's croissant, pan au chocolate. Not sure what was fly or chocolate.

The room itself was nice but no air conditioning, just a ceiling fan. At this time of year that's not a problem but in the hotter humid months it might be.

Plenty of local restaurants nearby serve up some excellent local cuisine.

Its basic but cheap so if you are seeking a budget friendly hotel in paradise then this is your place.

The restaurant on-site was excellent for both its breakfast buffet and dinners. The reception staff were friendly and helpful. The resort is located right on the edge of a public beach, and you can enjoy numerous recreation opportunities (swimming, snorkeling, paddling, whale watching excursions, etc.). It’s a 5-minutes walk to a small shopping center (very charming) with a small grocery store. But bring ear plugs because the island’s rooster population start crowing around 3:30am!

Due to cancellations of return flights, we moved from a 4-star hotel on Moorea to the Hotel Hibiscus for 3 nights. The Hibiscus was a pleasant surprise. It had a better location on the island than the 4-star hotel, our bungalow was terrific, and the service was much, much better than at the 4-star hotel. Simply put, the staff of the Hibiscus made us feel like we were welcome guests - something we definitely did not get at the pricier hotel.

Love this low key well kept hotel

This place was perfect for us - our little thatched hut (the thatch is actually plastic so perfectly sealed and clean and sealed against mosquitoes at night), the mini kitchen where we made simple breakfast and lunches, the beautiful coastline and beach! It was surprisingly quiet for staying in a bungalow without A/C and we slept like babies with the ceiling fan on. Loved sitting on the porch and enjoying the view. Perfect for those looking for a more authentic, non- resort experience. Could not recommend it more.

This hotel captured the essence of Moorea. It's not fancy at all. It's rustic, authentic, and super relaxing.

The location next to the park and beach as well as 6-8 local restaurants and small grocery stores make it ideal to save money or really get a feel for the local culture.

The hotel owner (Natalie) is wonderful, the staff is friendly (although the French waitress is stereotypical), and the grounds neat, clean, and tropical.

This hotel is probably the best value for the money on the island !!

No Flexibility

I was unable to stay at the hotel due to their limited check-in time and the fact that the hotel is actually on another island from the airport. I called in an attempt to get a late check-in and was told no. I attempted to get some form of refund, even partial, and Hotels.com could not get an approval from them and Hotels.com itself was also unwilling.

Excellent location! Restaurant had an awesome sunset view! The bungalow defiantly gave you the island experience. I really enjoyed my stay here.
The only negative I have to say is about one staff member.We wanted to order a taxi for the evening and she proceeded to tell us that you need to order a taxi 24 hours in advance and told us that this isn’t America and we can’t expect things right away. Then she asked if we were done because she had other customers she had to attend. If it wasn’t for the other staff members we would’ve checked out.
Not sure if I would stay here again. I enjoyed the location But she really made us feel uncomfortable.

Not Up to Standard

I often decline to review anything that is negative as I know it affects the establishment so much (the people there were quite nice), but there are a few things I should mention that can be easily addressed. Overall, Moorea is an expensive island to visit, and you are charged every step accordingly. Sadly, the Hibiscus Inn was only adequate in terms of value and accommodations. They could do better. For example, the shower only provided warm water, and the absence of a water curtain only became apparent when you realized that the shower head was hand-held, requiring one hand to wash and one hand to spray (the stem did not hold the shower other than spraying to the wall). Moreover, there was only one towel rack which does not accommodate the six towels often required, and the towels were old and coarse. The bed and furniture was sub-standard given the price paid and there was no TV (we only found CNN in other hotels). The restaurant was great, however, I would NOT stay here again.

Pleasant rooms with great sunset views over lagoon

Very pleasant helpful staff. I stayed in \"motel\" part for the air-conditioning which made my sleeping easier. Very clean, comfortable bed. Shower warm and powerful. Nice pool away from beach and right next to public beach so best of both worlds. Restaurant okay. I found the food adequate but not spectacular. Very close to market and my room had refrigerator, stove stop and utensils/dishes for cooking so could make own meals. Internet slow and intermittent which I'd guess has more to do with whole island access. Taxi and transport expensive on island but worth at least one day's rental to tour island and especially Belvedere overlook. Moorea is wonderful!

Over-priced and over-rated

We stayed at Hotel Hibiscus for 3 of 10 nights on our honeymoon. We payed for a lagoon view bungalow that had a sliver of a \"lagoon view\" (blocked by trees and the restaurant) during the day, and we had to keep the curtains completely drawn at night so that we would not be blasted by the neon light of the hotel restaurant sign. The hotel was nice enough to provide mosquito netting for the bed and smoke coils, but these did not keep the cockroaches out of the room. Our shower head didn't attach to the wall, and we instead had to shower by holding the nozzle in one hand while trying to shampoo/soap with another. We were nickel-and-dimed for everything, including having to put down a deposit for beach towels. The other hotel we stayed at had kayaks, canoes and snorkel gear available for guests to use at no charge, but Hibiscus charged for any use of these items.
