We stayed in a OTW bungalow in Moorea, and specifically requested 7 bungalows (2 months in advance). I did not receive any of those bungalows, but after two nights we moved to my first choice.

In Bora Bora we stayed in a hillside bungalow. It's a long walk up there, but it was the best room I have ever stayed in. I was hoping for an upgrade at check-in, but they had no idea I was Platinum (even though the reservation was made over the Platinum line.)

We stayed at the Sheraton Tahiti a few days when we arrived, and four days before we left. Each stay I was upgraded to a very large suite and received the best service out of all three hotels. The downside is the main island wasn't nearly as nice as the others.

If I did it all again, I would have stayed at different hotels in Moorea and Bora Bora. I was really expecting to get my moneys worth, and ended being very disappointed.
