Mandatory shuttle
I got the same email from IC Le Moana:
"We also remind you that boat transfers from the airport to the resort are mandatory for all hotel guests and costs 6031 cfp per person and per way. In order to well organise it, we would need your arrival and departure flight details."
I'm staying 3 nights at Le Moana followed by 3 nights at Thalasso. I'm going to ignore this email and take the Air Tahiti boat to Vaitape. I choose to interpret "mandatory" as "we really want you to do this because it is very profitable for us."
Their email also ignores the fact that some guests are staying at other resorts on Bora Bora before their stay at the IC resorts.
