Intercontinental Tahiti

InterContinental Tahiti boasts top-notch facilities, with excellent restaurants and vibrant bars. The resort offers superb infinity pools set amid colorful gardens and a diverse range of activities on offer!
The Resort
Located on the main island, only two kilometers from the airport and city shopping, the InterContinental Tahiti Resort & Spa is the ideal first stop in French Polynesia. The resort welcomes its guests into a lush 25-hectare tropical garden, surrounded by clear, blue seas.
Featuring overwater bungalows, ocean-view, and garden-view rooms, its premium accommodations provide panoramic views over beautiful Moorea. These showcase the sparkling ocean and the volcanic mountains of the sister island.
The resort also features two freshwater infinity pools, Le Lotus sand-bottom pool with its swim-up bar and jacuzzi, and Te Tiare’s swimming pool, waterfall, and jacuzzi, as well as the Lagoonarium, a natural aquarium with tropical fish.
Waves at Intercontinental Tahiti
Tahiti sits at the center of French Polynesia and has become a focus for the surf world as the most challenging of playgrounds. If you are looking for barrels this is the place to be, but there are also playful waves with fun walls at various passes and even the odd beach break style wave to be found. The quality of the surf is exceptional and the waves are varied, as swells arrive from both hemispheres.
The peak season goes between April and October when S/SW swells are super consistent. Expect the surf to range from 4 to 15ft in season and 2-5ft in the off-season.
The resort’s partner surf school and professional surf guides will help you find the best daily spot based on your level and preferences.
