Le Meridien Tahiti has embarked on a renovation of its public spaces and accommodations, scheduled for completion in November. Lagoon-view guestrooms and suites will be outfitted in neutral-toned furniture and linens; tapa cloth lights; mother of pearl curtains; and authentic Polynesian textures, including bamboo.

Featuring three personal check-in stations and an espresso bar, the new lobby will be decked out red, black, and white furnishings, including chairs designed to resemble the Tahitian tiare flower. Polynesian artwork will also decorate the space. Meanwhile, the refreshed design of La Plantation restaurant and Astrolabe bar will reflect a contemporary style that merges harmony and comfort with the environment. Natural-colored wood and woven furniture mixed with brightly colored accents of orange and green will enhance the Polynesian theme. The space will be redesigned to allow for both indoor and outdoor seating, with dividable "green walls" for added privacy. Additional changes encompass a re-landscaped entrance to the resort leading to a new façade featuring a bold red color, renovation of the Matisse Ballroom, and upgrades to the Mirror Pond.

In addition, sister resort Le Meridien Bora Bora will start its next phase of renovations in October, which include new interiors for all beach and overwater bungalows, as well as all public spaces. Interior designer Didier Lefort will oversee the enhancements at both properties. A new ecological center also will be added to the hotel.
