Request a quoteLe Tahiti by Pearl Resorts occupies Lafayette Beach in Matavai Bay, ten minutes from downtown Papeete. The black volcanic sand and views across to Moorea Island give it a setting unlike the island’s other inland city hotels. This is the only beachfront resort in the French Polynesian capital.
Matavai Bay is the anchorage Captain Cook used for all of his Pacific voyages, a piece of history that gives the hotel and area a special feel compared to others. The lagoon is calm enough for swimming, and the surrounding stretch of coast takes in the Papeenoo botanical gardens, the Arahoho Blowholes, and the Faarumai Waterfalls within a short drive.
Rooms and suites range from ocean view rooms with private balconies above the beach to overwater suites with glass-top coffee tables and direct lagoon access. A free shuttle runs to Papeete city center, an infinity pool overlooks the bay, and the on-site arts and crafts market gives guests a way to engage with Polynesian craftsmanship without leaving the property.
Hiti Mahana is al fresco above Lafayette Beach with direct views across Matavai Bay, serving French-Polynesian cuisine through the day.
The Bay Bar is the evening spot: sunset cocktails, regular drinks service, and live concerts on the first and last Fridays of each month. Room service is available for guests preferring to dine privately.
Tavai Spa works with traditional Polynesian ingredients and techniques across the treatment menu. Signature offerings include the Mahara Massage with monoi oil, a black volcanic sand body scrub drawn from the beach itself, a fresh papaya facial, and the ceremonial Parataito bath.
A monthly featured treatment rotates the menu. Current offerings include the Coco and Raspberry Mahara Massage and the Miri Monamona Facial Glow.
On the northwestern coast of Tahiti, ten minutes by road from Papeete with the resort’s free shuttle running both ways. Matavai Bay sits directly in front, the anchorage point Captain Cook used for all three of his Pacific voyages.
The coastal road north takes in the Papenoo botanical gardens, the Arahoho Blowholes, and the Faarumai Waterfalls within a short drive. Faaa International Airport is fifteen minutes south.
The Ocean View Room with Hot Tub covers 463 sq ft with a private hot tub set behind wooden louvres for additional privacy. Available with either a king or twin bed configuration.
A solid entry point for guests wanting a private soak with the ocean view. The hot tub adds meaningful upgrade over the standard Ocean View Room at a more accessible price than the suite categories.
The Premium Ocean View Suite runs 786 sq ft with a separate bedroom and bathroom featuring a soaking tub and separate shower. The living area opens onto a private Lanai balcony with sweeping ocean views.
The right step up from a standard room for guests wanting separated sleeping space and a bath alongside the shower, useful for couples staying multiple nights.
The Ocean Front Signature Suite covers 823 sq ft with a separate bedroom, lounge area, and bathroom with dual sinks. The private balcony runs the full width of the suite facing the ocean.
Upgrade paths from this category include suites with hot tubs, kitchens, and two-bedroom configurations, useful for families or guests staying a full week or longer.
