Changes in Tahiti Hotel Management

Rumour has it that Starwood Hotels is going to be pulling out of managing 3 popular resorts in Tahiti, Bora Bora and Moorea. Apparently the Sheraton Hotel Tahiti, the Sheraton Moorea and the Bora Bora Nui Resort and Spa (part of The Luxury Collection) are all no longer going to be managed by Starwood in 2009.

Starwood will still have The St. Regis Bora Bora Resort and Spa, the Meridien Tahiti and the Meridien Moorea all of which are very popular resorts in French Polynesia.

Perhaps coincidence, but I don't think so - Hilton Hotels are announcing new openings in February of 2009 in the region - Click Here for the Hilton Link

We anxiously await the official word and details from both hotel chains and see what resort changes may be made with the change of management.

Sheraton Fiji Reopens after Renovations

The Sheraton Fiji has reopened after being closed for about 6 months and pumping $40.7 million Fijian dollars (about $27.5 million CAD) into upgrades at the property. With 278 rooms, it is a modern property located on Denarau Island.

For those of you that are looking for a high end hotel when you first arrive or before you depart Fiji - the Sheraton is a great option.

For North Americans heading to Fiji, in my opinion, it is not where you want to spend all of your time. You are best to land in Nadi and then head out to the outer island where you get to experience the real Fiji!!
