Le Méridien Ile des Pins

My wife and I had a very nice 4 night stay at Le Meridien Isle of Pines. The hotel is just a little bit tired, it has a bit of the patina of being used. Some broken tiles, a few gaps in the joins etc. But overall it is quite lovely and daily maintenance is very good. The cleanliness was faultless. I'd read of ants and cockroaches in some reviews. Absolute rubbish. It is very well kept. The location is superb. The facilities like kayaks, snorkelling gear, pool and restaurant were very good indeed. Our cabin on the river was lovely and the bed superbly comfortable. The natural pool had some of the best snorkelling, the variety of marine life and some of the corals were amazing. Fantastic. Swimming, kayaking and snorkelling off the beach was also great. My only disappointment was the evening meals. Our first night I had a tateless over cooked fish dish. The next two nights were very good. On the last night, a Saturday, they have a buffet or you eat in your room. The buffet was 4950 francs ($75 Australian $) each. We don't eat that much and with drinks it was a pretty expensive meal. The quality of the food was very good but it wasn't what we wanted and there is no choice. The staff were lovely. Some can't converse in English but they and we tried and many are fluent in both.

ガーデンビュールームに宿泊しましたが、とっても綺麗な部屋でした 他のホテルも宿泊しましたが、他のホテルはシャワールームしかなかったですがここはバスタブもあり、広くて良かったです。アメニティは歯ブラシがなかったのが残念でした。 サップやカヌーなど無料で貸し出し出来たのが良かったです。

ヌメア市内唯一の5つ星ホテルということで宿泊しました！ 立地は海沿いで、テラスで寛ぐととても気持ちよかったです！ スパも有名で快適です！ 朝食もとても美味しく、また泊まりたいです！

Très bel emplacement mais hôtel vieillissant qui aurait besoin d’être rénové. Restauration moyenne.

ピッシングナチュレに行きたくてメリディアンに宿泊しました。私が予約したプランは送迎代とペアのマッサージ付きでした。 マッサージは気持ち良く夫も満足していました。 食事はレストランが一箇所しかないので選択肢がありません。けして美味しいと思えないのに高いです ホテル全体の雰囲気はとてもロマンチックなのでイルデパン島に行く際はまた泊まりたいです。

完美 度假最佳。

Let me start with the positive. The beach is beautiful !! Sadly the negatives are more. Being in the minority as an Australian & not speaking fluent French can be a bit of a downfall. But the staff do try a little to speak English. We were so excited to stay in the beach bungalow and when we got inside we were disappointed that it really wasn’t 5 star - it just looked run down. This is not a luxury 5 star resort. The shower overflowed every time we used it and water went everywhere in the bathroom. We were showering in ankle high water. The toilet was wobbly like the whole thing could tip. There was a lot of dust. The deck needed to be upgraded / it was worn down. The breakfast buffet had flies everywhere and inedible. The only thing we ate was an omelette freshly made. The dinner menu was ok. The pool was nice but would have looked so much nicer without the ropes around it and it didn’t look like an infinity pool. We did go to the naturals pool & it was beautiful / we followed one of the reviews here how to get to it & didn’t go the way the hotel said. I highly recommend the way we were told here. I think I wouldn’t go back here. Next time I’ll try a 5 star resort in Fiji. Unless this resort is upgraded to a higher standard. It’s really more 4 Star.

What a wonderful piece of paradise. We stayed for eight nights in a panoramic lagoon view bungalow. The view from the bungalow was fantastic - 2 dugongs fed on the sea grass just off shore for most of the stay.... it was really special to swim, snorkel and kayak with the many turtles who call the lagoon home. The lagoon was a delight... white sand, aqua water at a beautiful temperature. it was awesome to step down into the water directly from our room. Even at low tide there was a decent amount of water in the lagoon for swimming. Our bags were taken directly to our room on room availability and picked up in the last day. It's an easy walk to the Pistine Naturale - we're spoilt being able to go most days for a swim and snorkel. We found wading around the point, down the beach and then up the stream to be our preferred route. The bungalow was great.... a nice lounging area inside and out with a day bed and sun loungers for our exclusive use. The bed was king size with a large bathroom. The bathroom was a little tired but large with separate bath and shower... even a space to store the suitcases which was good after unpacking Be sure to order crepes or eggs ... it's not that obvious that there are others options than what's on display at the breakfast buffet. The food was ok... you really are going here for the locale. Lots of seafood and the local snails. Pros - amazing location - great bungalow - access to the natural pool - super relaxing - not over crowded - not heaps of children - lovely pool - lots of kayaks/sup Suggestions - maybe a ' weekly' change in menu - a glass bottom canoe would be awesome - more of a 'sale' of sight seeing options - it's all very low key and hunt it out yourself - an option for lunch other than sit down to a restaurant meal - they had great baguette, meats, cheese, salad at breakfast--- this would be great at lunch - on arrival the steps to the water from our bungalow were treacherously slippery... we cleaned them off with a sand rub but maybe something could be done about this as it's very dangerous. On our last day we watched a new neighbour carefully negotiate his way down only to take a tumble at the last step I would suggest booking a car etc pick up at Magenta Airport on your way back to Noumea... taxis were few and far between. if you need a taxi order one through the information desk on arrival but it takes a while (we had to order twice before one turned up) . next time we would have booked a pickup. It's pretty hot waiting for the taxi in the direct sun with no shelter/shade. Also make sure you book your transfers on the island as there is no public transport.

Gorgeous location, lovely rooms, food and beverages were consistently good and amazing beach. Francois, Emma and Melvin were very attentive. Highly recommend the short walk to piscine au naturel it’s spectacular. Fresh seafood and snails were delightful. Our group of friends were pleasantly surprised with our bills at check out.
