Tahiti Airport Motel was a pleasant surprise. The rooms were clean, comfortable, and well-maintained—nothing fancy, but definitely good value for the price. The 24/7 reception was a big plus, and the staff were friendly and helpful. While the motel is technically close to the airport, it’s not realistically walkable with luggage, especially up the hill. Taxis are expensive for such a short drive, though that’s no fault of the hotel. Fortunately, the staff kindly arranged a taxi for us at 1:45 am, which was much appreciated and very convenient. Overall, it’s a solid, no-frills option for a quick overnight stay near the airport.

This is a “sort-of” airport motel. You are close to the airport and our room had a view of terminal and runway, which is fun to watch the handful of planes coming and going. The challenge is that the airport is not very walkable to/from the hotel. I had a rental car, so that worked fine, albeit the steep driveway does easily crunch the front guard on most vehicles. But, if you are not in a rental car, then you can walk - not technically far, but not an easy walk. You can also take a taxi, but do to the closeness, I would imagine the cost would be not be based on time or distance. The room itself was clean and nice. The check-in/out was fine. I did not eat the breakfast, so no knowledge on that. I would not avoid this, but just know what you are getting into. Nice view of the airport, just not really an airport hotel.

Horrible hotel. Spend a few extra dollars and go to Te Moana! 1. The driveway is so steep that several taxi drivers refused to take us there after waiting in line. I ended up renting a car. 2. I asked for coffee in the morning. I was told "maybe"? But i could not bring it to our room so i had to go out for 4 coffees (another whole story) 3. The rooms only have mini split A.C. It is hot all day until the sun goes down. 4. Once you check out, they have signs in the lobby that you are not welcome to hang around their lobby waiting for your flight. Simply put, you still need a taxi to get to the airport. Spend an extra five minutes and get to a decent hotel. This is no way to end or begin a beautiful vacation. PS. No pool or meals other than perhaps a breakfast that we did not get.

Located a short distance from the airport, the hotel is a perfect place to stay if you have an early flight or late arrival. It is not fancy, but has the basics you need for an overnight stay. ||That said, a few notes:|- Parking - Limited and tight. |- Breakfast - Served during specific hours. |- Airport Shuttle - None. You can walk to the airport, but that requires going down the hill (which is fairly steep) and crossing several good size roads. |- Food - Nothing in immediate area. We kept our car an extra day in part due to that.

Breakfast was the smallest I have experienced, having spent several thousand nights at hotels. Room was clean and modern (small). Staff was very helpful. DO NOT walk here with bags.

All of the reviews are accurate, but we just wanted a place to sleep for 6 hours. There were no taxis and a line when we arrived (I had planned to heed that suggestion), but not a good option so we decided to walk. The part through the airport parking lot and up the steps wasn’t too bad, as folks had prepared us for that. But then you don’t know whether to go right or left to get up the hill. If you go right, it’s a shorter distance uphill but there’s a closed gate and the hotel wouldn’t open it. So you have to turn left on the street and go a half a mile up the street to another street on your right. Then you start the extremely uphill trek. Uneven pavement and very steep incline in the dark. A local couple was driving by and got very concerned saying that it’s not safe to walk at night and dropped us off at the top of the hill. This is the access to the parking garage. There may be a better way to walk, but we didn’t find it. Then as everyone has said, the a/c is off in the rooms so you take a cold shower while you wait for it to cool off. Quite a self inflicted adventure

I booked this thinking it would be a convenient stop for the 10 hours we had between flights late at night. We arrived at 2am. Then I read the reviews and got worried. But it all worked out fine for us. We were 2 adults with a big rolly bag and backpack each. here’s the breakdown of the things people complain about and my observations: 1. Yes, it is a hike up a hill, and if you can’t manage your bag it could be dangerous. But if it’s not pouring and you’re reasonably fit, it’s not a big deal and it feels nice to get a bit of exercise after a long flight . Be sure to check their website for walking path, the short way is not open. 2. I don’t know what people are talking about regarding taxis won’t go there since we didn’t take one, but my guess is that they mean down to reception, that looked very steep and narrow and likely somewhere taxis wouldn’t go 3. But… coming off the road to the hotel you’re on level 3 and you just need to walk through on level 3 to the elevator in the back and down to reception on level 1. So you don’t need to be dropped at level 1 and you don’t have to carry bags up/down stairs. 4. They don’t serve any breakfast and they don’t let you wait in the lobby for your flight 5. The rooms are basic but clean and have everything you need. I was happy with the bed and shower which is all we needed. 6. The lady at reception told me only Vodafone is available at the airport and she is half right - there is no Vini store at the airport, but you can buy Vini sims from many of the retailers near the bar and food area on the Macdonald’s side. You have to know how to handle sims since the staff selling it have no idea. And they only had the 40gb option when we were there (approx US$100). If you’re going off Tahiti, recommend getting the Vini sim to ensure coverage. We stayed at the Hilton our way back through and while that was lovely, it is twice the price and doesn’t make sense if you’re just there for an overnight. So if your budget allows, of course it’s nicer, but otherwise this one is a good option. Photo shows distance from airport terminal. But you have to walk around to the left and up behind it. It’s 10-15 min depending on your pace. The cars give way on the highway when you cross. You will have to lift bags up a flight of steps on far side of the parking lot.

Perfectly serviceable hotel for a night after a late flight. It's nothing fancy, but the room/bathroom was clean, staff was nice, the AC worked, and the bed was very comfortable. The hotel as a whole is a little worn, but that's to be expected. It is about a 10-15 minute walk door to door from the airport with a sidewalk until the last 150 meters or so. The walk up the hill isn't bad if you're half in shape or lugging a tonne of luggage.
