It has been three years since our last visit and the St. Regis is better than ever. The property and facilities are fresh with new furniture at the beach (the cube at the pool beach are great) and dining areas, new bikes and overall general maintenance - the hotel felt new.
We enjoyed an overwater room with lagoon view - it is a wonderful, large room with decks and swim platform. One very nice feature is the covered dining table on the deck - it is the perfect place for coffee and the morning sunrise.
The food is some of the best - various options and staff very willing to address any food issue or preferences (vegetarian, etc.).
We want to highlight Karen Ouryoute of the dining staff who provided us excellent services each day. The staff is amazing - caring and helpful.
At the pool or beach or in need of any beach toys (canoes, boards, jet-ski, etc.) or drink - just look up and a “beach boy” will be there to assist. A special thank you to Ruben and his young worker assistant - these boys never stopped running to get you what you wanted or needed.
A new item for us was live music at night in the bar/dining area - this was a great treat. Different musicians each evening - excellent local talent. One was Vehiatua Montaron - singer and acoustic guitar with some backup base help from his dad.
This is one of the great properties in Tahiti. The grounds, pool, beach, restaurants are all first class without being pretentious. We highly recommend the St. Regis.
