Un vrai rêve !
Un vrai rêve, en bord de mer, avec du personnel aux petits soins, une organisation impeccable, des chambres parfaites, à la hauteur des attentes. Le restaurant est parfait, le petit déjeuner impressionnant de variété est à ne pas manquer.

Disappointing
We loved the location! Gorgeous view and the water was super clear! The bungalow was decent, but used and could receive an update.
The treatment from the staff at the only restaurant at the resort. I was w my 16 year old daughter there for her birthday. Three nights. Every meal, we were completely ignored. From the wait time to get a table, to ordering, to receiving out food and checking out. Other families came in way after us, received their food, had dessert and left before we had even ordered. First time to feel that we were profiled. It was so bad the last night, my daughter went back to the room in tears as I finally had to speak up to the staff and she was saddened how they responded.

Great place to relax, friendly staff, and a short distance to Top Dive and Tiputa Pass.
We totally enjoyed our stay at Hotel Kia Ora. May be the best and only true resort on Rangiroa. Understanding the limitations on staying on Rangiroa (narrow atolls, not much fresh water), and a small town Avatoru 8km to the west, means if you are going to stay there, you are not going to leave the resort much, and your only activities are going to be on the water. We stayed in the over-water bungalows, which have some mostly dead coral below, but it's enough to attract lots of fish, particularly at night. The fish balls can be huge, which attract predators like large nurse sharks, blacktip sharks, and giant moray eels, which typically attack the fish just before dawn. The staff are extremely friendly, locals, and many do multiple roles at the facility. The twice weekly Polynesian dancing at night has kids from Avatoru, and the dancers get diners from the restaurant to dance, and the food at these events is very varied with lots of seafood options. Very family friendly, but the pools are not impressive due to fresh water limitations (there's a pool near the bar, and some bungalows/villas have their own jacuzzi/pool), so best if you are in the water snorkeling, or out on excursions. The Wi-Fi is excellent and probably the best we experienced in French Polynesia. If you are a scuba diver, Top Dive is to the west of the resort and can be walked to from the beach. Definitely dive Tiputa pass.

Nice resort and amenities, nice staff and great food.
The staff was great, very helpful and accommodating. Amenities at this resort are similar to what you would expect at a 4+ star resort in French Polynesia. We had a great massage, dining in the restaurant was great and access to beach and snorkeling were great. The private plunge pool was very nice and outdoor shower and lounge areas were great as well. Room was comfortable, clean and secure.
Based on the price you pay to stay here I think the bicycles should be free to use and carry no charge. It felt a little too nickel and dimey to be honest to charge us for the bikes. Although not a lot, the the $15 USD flat rate covers a few hours and you are not allowed to take to your bungalow.

incredible stay. We highly recommend.
breathtaking views and accommodations exceeded our expectations. highly recommend. True leisure stay and snorkeling access steps away. Loved every minute. Nice variety of breakfast food. Did not eat dinner there, so can’t speak to that, but we heard it was very good.

Very good
Great place to stay. The room was spacious and we appreciated the air conditioning! Loved that there were bikes and scooters available so we could explore the island.
Everything is a little dated, but still incredibly nice and well kept.
