Le Tikehau by Pearl Resorts

Just came back from a beautiful resort — the perfect getaway. The staff were so kind, the food was delicious, and the atmosphere was so relaxing. Had an unforgettable time at a beautiful resort. 美しいリゾートから戻ったばかりで、完璧な休暇です。スタッフはとても親切で、料理はおいしかったし、雰囲気はとてもリラックスできました。

The beauty of the resort is undeniable. Pristine pink beaches, crystal clear waters, and if you're lucky a rainbow or two. While the location is second to none the staff are what makes this resort noteworthy. I wish I could name everyone who made this stay memorable however it would take all day. From the second I got up to watch the sunrises the gardeners would smile with a friendly IaOrana and that friendly sincerity is present all day in all staff members I was lucky enough to pass by. The smiles and warmness felt here are as beautiful as resort. I will note this is my second time here and the new breakfast is delicious! The breads were out of this world! Top it off everyday I got a fresh coconut drink, it's just another small detail that makes this place magnificent. I personally thank everyone here, it was exactly the "brain break" I desperately needed before heading back to the grind of the states.

We (four adults and two kids) recently took a trip to Tikehau from Los Angeles, which we booked through Costco. It was our third visit to Tikehau and our ninth trip to Tahiti. We have made great memories in Tahiti over the years. Our original travel plan was from December 27, 2024, to January 4, 2025. However, when we were departing from Tikehau airport, our local transfer flight to Papeete was canceled due to a mechanical issue, leaving us stranded at the Tikehau airport without assistance. We tried to contact Costco Travel, but the agent was unhelpful and refused to assist us. We had to reach out to Air Tahiti and Air Tahiti Nui for three days until a wonderful lady from Air Tahiti Nui helped us book new flights. Unfortunately, we had to cancel some patients in our clinics due to this chaos. Typically, this situation might lead any tourist to vow never to return to a destination. However, during this ordeal, the new manager at the Tikehau Pearl Resort, Stefon, along with the assistant manager, Raipuni Hiriga, went above and beyond to help us. They assisted us in communicating with Air Tahiti and provided support throughout the situation. Their dedication and service exceeded anything we have experienced at other luxury hotels. We genuinely appreciate their help and hope the management at the Pearl Resort acknowledges their efforts. The resort itself is stunning and otherworldly—just like the staff. Another person we must thank is a lovely and down-to-earth French lady we met during our stay. She went out of her way to help us communicate with the airline and hotel in French when our flight was canceled, even while she was stranded at the airport and needed to change her own flight. Later, we discovered that she is Antonia Desplat, a talented and famous actress. Living in Beverly Hills and with my wife being the Vice Chair of Plastic Surgery at UCLA, we have encountered many self-proclaimed actors and actresses. Antonia, however, is genuinely a real person, and we will be following her work in the future. Eric, Chia, Richard and Sandy

The resort is perfect. All the details are there, and high class dining is available round the clock. Our excursion with Mania and Tuhea was amazing, with pristine lagoons and a delicious barbecue on the motus. We have stayed in various accommodations in French Polynesia five times and Le Tikehau was our favorite!

Tikihau Pearl Resorts was absolutely stunning. We stayed in the premium OWB (44) and could not have asked for a better location. The hotel meets you at the airport and takes care of everything for you including luggage transport. After a short drive from the airport, you hop on a boat and they take you to the hotel which is on their own separate Motu. It is about a 10 minute ride. The service and cleanliness was superior in every regard. It is recently renovated so the bungalows smell amazing. And seriously have I mentioned the location?! If you go I suggest the premium side OWB and left side to get the sunsets. Ours was surrounded by reef and coral so we could hop right in and snorkel to our hearts content. There is only one restaurant and the food albeit a little pricy, was very good. You have a variety of excursions available to you at the hotel which they arrange. We took a 1/2 day snorkeling tour to swim with Manta Rays, dolphins, lots of “friendly” sharks, and about a zillion fish. Overall the experience was magnificent. The Pearl resorts is offering a pretty hefty discount (35%) for staying at two of their resorts so we are off to Le Taha’a Pearl resorts! I will absolutely be back to Tikihau, because it was a trip of a lifetime and the hotel made it all the more magical!

Extremely nice and very good service and organization. The bungalows overwater are fantastic ( someone unfortunately don’t have direct access to the water.The excursions are very well organized and various. Likely the Resort is not too big and you can enjoy the atmosphere and also the privacy if you wish to have it ! Very good breakfast and lunch. The only think we wish to underline it the dinner menù: low choices and very few changes during a week. It is’nt so easy to find a bungalow available that means you have to book very in advance.
