InterContinental Le Moana Bora Bora

Archive article. This stay was paid with points, not a collaboration. Bora Bora is a stunning tropical island known for its turquoise lagoon, coral reefs, and overwater bungalows. Surrounded by lush mountains and white sandy beaches, it offers luxury, relaxation, and adventure. Popular activities include snorkeling, diving, and boat tours, and it might be a dream destination for many honeymooners and travellers worldwide.

InterContinental Le Moana Bora Bora was the first high end hotel in Bora Bora and while it’s now the cheapest of the two InterContinental resorts in Bora Bora.

A free shuttle boat runs between the two InterContinental resorts and I arrived to a nice welcome and was offered a welcome drink before being escorted to the Bungalow. I stayed in a Beach Bungalow and it was beautifully located at the beach. It looked a little tired inside, but was overall fine. Being in Bora Bora itself is probably what is the most special here.

As you might know French Polynesia is probably not where most would expect exception service and Le Moana was no exception. You can’t compare it with top resorts in Asia and the high rates are due to the remoteness and because it is one of the world’s most beautiful locations.

Internet is very expensive and as a guest you even have to pay a lot for using the internet in the lobby. At least that how it was when I stayed there, but might have changed as I’m updating this article some years later.

Overall it was a a nice little hotel experience which like the rest of Bora Bora is very overpriced for what you get, in my opinion. It’s one of the most beautiful locations in the world, but the resort is very far from the quality of a similar priced resort in the Maldives as a direct comparison of a similar destination.
