week's featured overwater bungalow is not among the largest or most glamorous in the South Pacific, but it's an extremely popular resort for a few key reasons that many people will want to consider.
The InterContinental Tahiti Resort has 32 overwater bungalow in addition to over 200 other rooms, making it one of the largest resorts of any kind in French Polynesia. Perhaps its best selling points are that it's quite reasonably priced, and it's very close to the Tahiti Airport without being too close.
Interested in an over the water bungalow. We would like to be able to snorkel off of the bungalow. Suggestions??????????????????
Gail,
You can snorkel off the deck at almost every overwater bungalow in the world, except for a few of the cheaper options in Malaysia. That said, the best snorkeling in those same areas is usually done with a boat trip to a nearby reef. Since the bungalows are mostly over clear lagoons, there isn’t as much to see right under the bungalow itself. -Roger
Do you have these photos in high resolution? I am looking for a picture to enlarge.
Cynthia,
These photos are off the official resort websites, and some of those are offered in high resolution, but only a few of them. The resorts own the images as well. -Roger
Where does the plumbing go? Or, are there no bathrooms in each bungalow?
Philip,
The plumbing is built in just below the floor. These rooms have everything, including A/C and cable TV, not to mention showers and baths. -Roger
