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。

You can read prior reviews - dated hotel, poor shower drainage, limited food choices, bad pool condition etc. it is what it is for a very remote location. Of course the hotel could and should spend the money and give the whole place a much needed facelift. The point of visiting here is for the location - the magic of IDP. The hotel is on Oro Bay - the surrounding beaches are all lagoons - so amazing waters that are calm and without ocean currents. You can kayak or paddle board (or walk during low tide) for quite a far distance out from the beach. It is serene and calm and other-worldly. The main advantage of this hotel over the others is the accessibility to La Piscine Naturelle (Natural Lagoon) which is a 20 minute walk away. You do need to wade along the river banks at some points so low tide (mid morning) is easier. The Piscine is just like a large swimming pool. Snorkelling is average here in New Caledonia. The hotel’s snorkelling equipment is old and the goggles leaked. But the experience is again magical and serene. There will be lots of people though but it is big enough. I do highly recommend the day tour to Brush Island - which can be booked through the hotel. Please see my review on that. So yes - the luxury hotel experience could have been better - but it was definitely worth visiting IDP and experiencing its beauty and magic. And kudos to the staff - they were are friendly and helpful.

Disappointed. This was supposed to be our honeymoon and we thought we’d splashed out on a 5-star resort. This was far from it. We stayed in a bungalow. Made a booking for a massage only to turn up and be told it wasn’t operating. Tried to use the gym but much of the equipment was out of order (treadmill, bike etc). Room was tired and rundown. Shower overflowed, needed jandals and wasn’t hot. Weather was average, which didn’t help, but the hotel didn’t offer any entertainment options or things to do during rainy times. Food was average at best. Everything at the hotel was very expensive and not good quality. Staff not overly friendly or helpful. I wouldn’t recommend coming here. Spend your time and money elsewhere - go somewhere like Fiji!

My stay at the méridien was wonderful… I was upgraded to a bungalow and treated like royalty… the bungalow was super well equipped and ultra comfortable. The staff at the hotel was very professional, efficient, and friendly! They did go out of their way to make us feel special… I hope that I get a chance to go back and stay there again, one day
