Hotel Description
The InterContinental Resort Tahiti, formerly the legendary Beachcomber, has long been rated the top hotel of Tahiti. It has a superbly romantic location lagoonside in 30 acres (12 hectares) of tropical gardens, with spectacular views across to the soaring peaks of Tahiti's sister Island, Moorea. We are just over a mile (2 km) from the airport, (important when you arrive in the wee hours after a long flight) and the capital and port city, Papeete, are about six miles (10 km) down the road.

The essence of Tahiti
You'll feel like in harmony with Tahiti in our resort where no buildnig rises above the coconut palms and where all the accommodations capture the elegance and comfort of Colonial Polynesia. We have three types of rooms as well as two types of thatched overwater bungalows to choose from. Click on accommodations for all the details.

Les Grands Ballets de Tahiti, the island's internationally-renowned performance group, has chosen our Tiare theater restaurant for their home and you'll be able to thrill to the sensual dances and songs that have been a feature of Polynesian culture since immemorial times.

Superb Wining & Dining
Discover the subtle mix of French and International food with Polynesian gastronomy. It's an exotic combination brought to life in our two restaurants, two bars and 24 hour room service. We designed our exciting menus in collaboration with the famed Auberge de l'Ill restaurant in France.

A Complete resort on Tahiti with Lots to do
You'll relax in two of the most beautiful infinity pools in all Polynesia and meet our colorful fish life in our own Lagoonarium in the heart of the resort. The Aquatica Center is on the spot for diving, snorkeling and all the water sprots. Then there's tennis, French bowls in the grounds plus any number of activities and excursions in Papeete and around the Island.
Luxury Hotel Accommodation
Nothing's higher than the coconut palms in our low rise polynesian-style resort of 263 rooms, suite and overwater bungalows.

To make you feel you're in Tahiti, all accommodations are attractively decorated in a tasteful and relaxing Colonial polynesian theme.

Here is an overview but click on each accomodation type for a full description and floor plan.

ROOMS
The rooms are in three categories in nine adjoining three story buildings spread out in our luxuriant grounds:

With views over the lagoon and the ocean to neighboring Moorea:
60 Panoramic Rooms, our largest rooms, at the more secluded Lotus end of the resort.
92 Ocean View Rooms, smaller but spacious and cozy, close by the central core of the resort.
With garden views:
78 Garden View Rooms, same size as the Ocean View Rooms but at garden level and most with a partial view of the ocean.
BUNGALOWS
The overwater bungalows, thatched with pandanus leaves, are our most romantic choice - inspired by traditional polynesian houses called fare. They're built on stilts let into the lagoon bed and all have ocean views, private terraces and sundecks with direct access to the lagoon for swimming or snorkling. There are two designs:

15 Overwater Lagoon Bungalows, our larger Junior Suite size bungalows, built at the Lotus end of the resort over deeper (10') water. Large bathrooms with jacuzzi tubs and separate shower.
16 Overwater Motu Bungalows, somewhat smaller bungalows built in a semi circle around their own private little island, called a motu in Tahitian. They are in front of the Lagoonarium and main pool and buildings.
