Value trap with extremely unresponsive personnel
Pros:

The hotel is located nicely with breathtaking views of both the coral and the mountain. Also, the rooms are quite spacious. We booked a room with beach view for 2 adults and 1 kid. More than enough space.

Also, the beds were comfy. Moreover, we really enjoyed K Fine Dining restaurant with the complete tasting and wine pairing experience. Unfortunately, the menu does not change throughout the season so it doesn't make much sense to eat here more than two times.

Cons:

First of all, this hotel seems to not understand online communication. While we made our reservation through booking, it was impossible for us to contact them over chat. To make things even worse, phone communication does not work much better with the personnel from here. Our concierge from Bora Bora called the Sofitel to make sure someone will pick us up from the airport. They confirmed but they totally forgot us in the airport.

Second disappointment came from the activity representative. We explicitly told him we prefer to pay by card. All the taxi arrangements were only accepting cash :(. Except the taxis, we received a recommendation for a 4x4 Island tour. The sightseeing was great but our guide was a complete disaster: she was 20 mins late to pick us up, didn't explain much about anything and she was pretty sour.

Third disappointment was the buffet restaurant. This is extremely mediocre and for a party of 2 adults and 1 child it will cost as much as K Fine Dinning. Avoid the buffet restaurant as much as possible.

We have been to many resorts and this tops the list.
Pros:

We loved the atmosphere of the Sofitel. The first thing we noticed was how calm it was and we recognized this throughout our stay. We totally relaxed while we were here. The grounds, the beach, our 'beach bungalow' everything was outstanding. Our bungalow had everything we needed. The indoor/outdoor shower was amazing. The bed very comfortable. We enjoyed our porch looking out at the ocean.

Cons:

I can't think of a thing we didn't like other than we didn't like that we had to leave.

Lovely beachfront property in Moorea
Pros:

Lovely property and we got a beach front bungalow. The room was spacious and kept clean. Lots of room for bags and clothes. The shower was great and the bathroom had the required amenities. The dive centre provided fins and snorkels and they had a great looking property

Cons:

The beach had some strong currents so I was a bit scared on two days. I was disappointed that they did not include breakfast for us due to a glitch in changing dates in the Booking.com system
