- What is your Priority Club status?
Platinum

- Were you (or for multi-stayers are you generally) happy with the hotel/stay?
Yes.

- Which room did you book and which upgrade did you receive?

Booked a Family Coral Suite, upgraded to Emerald Overwater Bungalow

- How are the rooms?

Stunning! The bungalow was huge, had 2 tvs (only CNN and an old movie channel in English), very clean and had sophisticated decor.

- How is the exec. lounge?

N/A

- What was good and what was bad?
Good
The grounds are beautiful and you have a lovely view of Otemanu from the pool area if your bungalow isn't facing it. Very friendly staff at reception at check-in and check-out.


Bad
The motu location was a pain in the butt to get to and from the main island as you need to take the shuttle to Le Moana to get access to cheap restaurants and shops.

-Misc. comments
This was booked on points and we got a complimerntary upgrade. We saw about 8 kids in the pool area so I am taking a guess that the family suites were required by families. I wasn't about to ask questions, just sit back and enjoy the upgrade! As a PLT, we got a free bottle of wine, fruit platter and mineral water.

- Value for $ or Priority Club Points? Would you return?

For 40k PC points, this was a killer deal! We would return to BOB if the flights from PPT weren't so expensive.
