We found cockroaches in our room and in the buffet area at breakfast. We told the front desk staff and they sent folks to clean our room but they didn't bother to comp us anything to make up for it. We were terribly grossed out.

We stayed here during our honeymoon for 3 nights in a beach front bungalow. Can’t recommend this place enough. This was our 2nd favorite lodging during our trip where we stayed at 7 different lodgings (only behind one of the 5 star resorts on bora bora). If we visited again we would choose Sofitel again over the other resorts on Moorea offering OWBs. The staff was incredibly friendly our entire time there, and all food options come highly recommended. Do not be cheap and avoid the resort breakfast - it is well worth it. The room was very clean & we had easy access to the nearby lagoon where we had some of the best casual snorkeling of our trip. One of our highlights at Sofitel was the beach front romance dinner through restaurant K - we were picked up from our bungalow at our reservation time & dropped back off after. We also had an amazing spa session while there. The only downside for the short term is part of the property was beginning renovations when we were leaving (including the spa moving to a smaller location on site with potentially more limited offerings) in late October. Overall we would 100% stay at Sofitel in the future again.

A wonderful resort with great amenities. My husband and I stayed in an overwater bungalow. It was quiet and relaxing, with beautiful views and so many fish to see while snorkeling. The sunrise and sunset at the beach were beautiful. There was a variety of different cuisines at the buffet, and we enjoyed the dance show at dinner. The Polynesian massage at the spa was one of the best massages I’ve ever had. Overall, our time at the resort was one of the highlights of our trip.
