Hotel-restaurant 4 stars with 70 bungalows on stilts air-conditioned and equipped with a mini bar.
In the heart of a 200-hectare marine reserve, the hotel, which was completely renovated in 2022, is nestled along a white sand beach overlooking the lagoon. Noumea is only 20 minutes by boat and luxury is combined with calmness. A flagship of the Caledonian hotel industry, the level of services and comfort are first class. 70 bungalows are available, some of which are on stilts. The establishment has a restaurant and can be an excellent excuse to spend a day here. A large number of water sports activities are offered on site.

UN TRES BEAU SEJOUR AVEC UN PERSONNEL EXEPTIONNEL. DOMMAGE POUR L INTERDICTION DE BAIGNADE ET LES MOUETTES QUI SONT ENVAHISSANTE SURTOUT PENDANT LE PETIT DEJEUNER EN TERRASSE.
Visited in october 2023
The setting of the resort is really beautiful, the staff are very welcoming and our room was nice, but overall I'd say we were a bit disappointed given how expensive it is.
Because you can't check in until 3pm, it feels like the timing of the boats to the island has been orchestrated to make you spend more money - you either arrive after your check in, pay for an early check in, or get there at 1pm and hang around/spend money in the bar and restaurant.
We stayed in a deluxe beach bungalow for two nights. The ceiling fan in our room was broken and could not be fixed - it would not turn off and was incredibly noisy. The only solution was to turn it off at the mains, meaning we could only use the aircon, which was also very noisy. There wasn't another room of the same level available and we weren't offered anything else to make up for the inconvenience, which was a little disappointing.
The food situation is pretty dire. The breakfast buffet isn't too bad (and thank goodness it's included with the room...), but a la carte options are extremely limited and the dinner buffet is really, really expensive for what it is - even by New Caledonia standards. I've read that other people take advantage of the free boat to and from Port Moselle, which I think we would have also done had we been there for longer.
The fitness room is well equipped, the pool is lovely (although the swim up bar wasn't open during our stay) and, as I mentioned, the setting is really beautiful - the sunsets were exquisite.
I should note that the Ilot Maitre is included in the current Nourma bathing ban, which of course can't be helped by the resort! You can still borrow kayaks and other equipment... for a fee, of course.
Overall I think this place leaves a lot to be desired and I'd probably agree with some of the other reviews I've read that it's better to just do a day trip. I booked our stay here as a surprise for my partner, and in hindsight I kind of wish I'd splurged on a couple of days on the Isle of Pines instead.

Magnifique endroit. Petite balade de 25 mn en bateau pour aller sur l'île au maître. Nous avons dormi sur pilotis très agréable......

Seul bémol, il n’y avait personne à la piscine, ils n’ont quand même pas accepté que l’on paie pour que nos enfants s’y baignent car il fallait dormir à l’hôtel.
