Pam, there's a older thread over at tahiti-explorer.com on the boards, comparing 3 of the main hotels. If you poke around in the Accommodation in Moorea forum, you should find lots of information.

All I know is that Pearl is a smaller chain, owned or at least run by Polynesians. We stayed at the Manihi Pearl a few years back and loved it.
