ROOM FEATURES
Opened
in October 2000, Sheraton Moorea Lagoon Resort & Spa is
the perfect realization of a South Seas fantasy. Here the
outside world fades quickly as you relax in a private, air-conditioned
bungalow rising above a spectacular 10-acre lagoon.
A
viewing panel in the floor reveals jewel-colored fish beneath
your feet. A ladder drops from your landing into the warm
lagoon, should you feel tempted to join them for a swim. On
land, each fare (Tahitian for house) stands amidst luxurious
gardens or on the beachfront. And each bungalow features a
private outdoor shower with unparalleled views.
Each
of the hotels 54 over-water bungalows and 52 garden and beach
bungalows are equipped with all the modern conveniences found
in a world-class hotel, including special touches like ceiling
fans and claw-footed tubs. Especially popular with honeymooners,
the "island on an island" over-water rooms are connected
by winding, wooden walkways built on stilts over the lagoon.

HOTEL FACILITIES AND AMENITIES
Your concierge will be happy to arrange any number of diverse
activities during your stay, each designed to help you discover
the essence of Moorea. Guests can visit the Opunohu valley
by 4x4, rent cars or scooters, or enjoy a circle island tour
by bus. Or, perhaps horseback riding along breathtaking trails
or mountain bike rentals for touring the island at your own
pace. Hotel guests have free access to tennis courts and a
fitness room.
The
Arii Vahine Restaurant at Sheraton Moorea Lagoon Resort &
Spa provides yet another delightful over-water experience
for Sheraton guests, for breakfast & dinner. The menu
tempts the palate with French, American and other international
gourmet creations like poisson cru (fresh fish marinated in
coconut milk), grilled barrimundi (a local favorite) and lobster.
The restaurant's signature dessert is an award-winning coconut
soufflé.
The Eimeo (sunset) Bar, adjacent to the Arii Vahine Restaruant,
offers a stunning panoramic view, classic and island cocktails,
and expert barmen who are more than happy to make a recommendation
from their extensive list of fine wines and champagnes.
The
Toata Bar - named after an island coral - is a memorable place
to spend an afternoon or evening. Built over a natural aquarium,
it appears to "float" on water like an "infinity"
pool... with a sweeping view over the lagoon and Moorea's
majestic peaks.
Located
near the swimming pool and the beach, the Rotui Bar &
Grill provides a casual, waterfront option for lunch or dinner,
as well as the perfect setting to enjoy refreshing exotic
drinks all afternoon. Rotui serves elaborate platters of fresh
vegetables and tropical fruits, capturing the flavors indigenous
to the island.
Should
you feel disinclined to venture from the comforts of your
room or bungalow, room service will be happy to bring you
breakfast, lunch, or dinner as you contemplate the lagoon
and Mooreas volcanic peaks from your terrace...
