GENERAL INFORMATION
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.

Tiare Restaurant
The main hotel restaurant is open from 5.30 am to 10.00 pm every day with continous service for breakfast, lunch and dinner.

The Tiare with its open kitchen is the heart of the ground floor level of the hotel, looking out over our stage, infinity pool and waterfalls and the spectacular silhouette of the mountains of Moorea. The decor style is authentically Tahitian and it's here that the dinner shows take place on Wednesdays, Fridays and Saturdays, the last two by the famous "Les Grands Ballets de TAHITI".

The menu is extensive and the ranges are from light snacks and healthy salads to fresh fish specialities and specially selected meats from New Zealand.

Our gourmet, overwater restaurant

Refined and creative cuisine for lunch (12.30 - 2.30 pm) and dinner (6.30 - 9.30 pm) daily. Le Lotus is at the secluded far end of the resort grounds with a captivating atmosphere under thatch and over the lagoon waters. It's the most romantic setting with views out to Moorea. soft piano music plays evenings (Wednesday to Sunday).

Tiki Bar
Open 10.00 am to midnight daily.

Our main bar, located close to the Tiare Restaurant, is a popular rendezvous for locals too, particularly for its evening musical entertainment. This is where you can sip your favorite beverage or try an exotic tropical concoctin served in a pineapple or coconut shell as you watch the sun drop behind the peaks of Moorea.. There is a warm welcoming feeling under its pandanus roof and carved Polynesian tiki posts.

Special Events from 20 to 1'500 participants!
