Has anyone ever stayed here? This is the Hotel that Regent is putting us up at because they couldn't get us flights until 2 days after we returned. Any feed back? As Of July 12th Sheraton Tahiti

Are you on their air program, and this is a gratis accommodation? Wow, I would suffer that any day! I just briefly went there and saw it was Starwood. Can't go wrong with that group, especially if it is gratis!

We stayed here for three nights two years ago before our 14 day WindStar cruise to the Marquesas. It is a lovely place, and the rooms were comfortable, not luxurious, but comfortable! The staff was eager to help, and courteous. Le Truck stops immediately across the street, with easy access to downtown.

They have been doing extensive renovation on a beach area, and that should be finished.

You will enjoy, I think.

Great News! Thanks! Yes, it is gratis with the exception of alcohol, phone and tips.

For Pincus or anyone who knows:
There is a hotel in Papeete which I "thought" was the Sheraton that really has no beach access, our ship offered that for the day use until our flight out on last Tahiti trip ( didn't stay)...is it Sheraton? because if it is I wouldn't book there.

I'm confused, because the normal hotel that they were booking is the Radisson.

I agree with Claudia, I haven't stayed in the Sheraton, just spent an afternoon there, but was not particularly impressed. It has the advantage of being close to Papeete.

The website says it just finished a multi million dollar renovation. Several Starwood Properties are doing the Time Share membership and from the wording, I think that might be one too.

You are all correct.

When we were there they told us of their plans to "build a beach." Bulldozers were already in place.

I also looked at the pictures on the website. From my memory, it appears that the furniture in the rooms is not new; the bathrooms might be new; bed linens are definitely new and updated.
Other than the new beach, I see no huge changes to the physical plant.

Windstar used the hotel for their day rooms after the cruise, and because of the nearness to downtown, we decided to stay there before our Marquesas trip.

Hope this helps.
