Opoa Beach Hotel sits in the south of Raiatea, between the lagoon and tropical vegetation 210 kilometers northwest of Tahiti. Raiatea Airport is forty minutes by road; the hotel arranges transfers directly.
The Marae of Taputapuatea sits five minutes away. It is a UNESCO World Heritage site and one of the most significant sacred sites in the Pacific, drawing visitors from across the Polynesian Triangle for its ancestral and ceremonial importance. The hotel’s position makes it the obvious base for visiting the marae.
The property works to a strong sustainability brief, with a Green Key eco-label commitment across energy, waste, and responsible purchasing. Spa by Opoa runs treatments in an open massage faré at the edge of the lagoon, and car, scooter, electric bike, and jet ski rentals are all available on-site for exploring the rest of the island.
The hotel restaurant serves breakfast, lunch, and dinner with a menu built around fresh local produce and French-Polynesian cooking. The setting faces the lagoon directly, and the kitchen sources ingredients from the surrounding island where possible. A beach bar opens from 11 am with cocktails, fresh fruit drinks, and local beer in a relaxed sandy setting alongside the main restaurant.
In-room dining is available through the concierge service, which operates seven days a week from 8 am to 8 pm.
Spa by Opoa sits at the edge of the lagoon in a traditional open-air massage faré, with treatments delivered against tropical birdsong and the sea breeze. A certified wellness therapist runs massages, body scrubs, and wraps drawing on Polynesian ingredients including tiaré, tipanie, and monoi oil.
The spa is open to outside visitors by appointment alongside hotel guests, making it one of the few wellness spaces on Raiatea accessible to non-residents.
