Moorea, March 5, 2024 – The Niu Beach Moorea, a new hotel owned by the Failloux family, was inaugurated on Saturday in Tiahura. Managed by South Pacific Management, this hotel features 16 bungalows equipped with modern amenities. The hotel primarily targets independent travelers, both local and international, and aims to be environmentally friendly.

The new Niu Beach Moorea hotel was inaugurated in the presence of members of the Failloux family, representatives from South Pacific Management, as well as officials from the local government and the municipality of Moorea-Maiao. Located in Tiahura, this new two-star hotel has 16 bungalows, accommodating three guests (four with children) in ten bungalows, and five guests (six with children) in six bungalows. Unlike larger hotels, Niu Beach Moorea offers breakfast only, but guests can enjoy a fully equipped kitchen and modern facilities (air conditioning, telephone, television, internet, etc.).

“Our hotel caters to both local and international clientele. We focus on independent guests seeking comfort away from the crowds and large hotels. Each room is well-equipped with state-of-the-art technology, including super-fast Wi-Fi. The facility is also designed to be accessible for people with reduced mobility. Guests can enjoy breathtaking sunsets every evening,” explains Silvia Martino, director of Niu Beach Moorea.

An Eco-Friendly and Responsible Hotel

The establishment aims to stand out by being both eco-friendly and responsible. “For maintenance, for example, all products we use are eco-labeled and environmentally friendly. We will also avoid printing paper and distributing flyers. Everything will be done virtually. We plan to create QR codes to provide information to guests. Additionally, we will offer an option for those who wish to pay an eco-contribution, which will fund ecological projects like coral propagation or cultural initiatives. It’s important for the hotel’s image,” adds Silvia Martino.

Finally, it’s worth noting that the project’s designers chose to construct cement buildings rather than traditional Polynesian-style homes. “International guests want access to the lagoon, to paddle in a canoe, and experience traditional dancers. When they return to their rooms, they expect air conditioning and comfort. They are no longer looking for a local fare,” defends the director.
