Noisy until the nightclub next door closes at 5am. Don't feel like the sweat if areas. Fine for a one night stop if you're heading to the ferry terminal early in the morning.

Friendly, helpful staff at Reception. Comfortable bunk bed, near bathroom facilities. Good breakfast, no hassle, would definitely recommend to other travellers - good central location almost opposite the inter-island ferry terminal too.

We stayed on the 1st floor. The 8th floor has a rooftop bar. We could hear the deep bass sounds from the music the ENTIRE night and into the morning when we left at 5:30am. Having said this, the upside was that the hotel staff were extremely friendly, professional and helpful. It was also prefect for a one night stay as the price was right. The room was very small but it was perfectly appointed with super comfortable bunk beds, TV’s, outlets and extremely clean.

The cabin was fine for a night and the hotel was in a good location. Overall recommend. We had a little disagreement with the way the Reeftop handled a situation but they are independent from the hotel.

The place is nice and has an amazing rooftop bar and restaurant. We stayed one night after coming back from bora bora. Most people go to the airport hotels but I wanted a small night life.

Polynesian Cabins by Kon Tiki is very clean, well organised and a great concept. Shared bathrooms were very clean, the bed was comfy and check in by staff at around 3:30am was quick and painless - so much better than trying to navigate a self-check in at that time. Rooms are small and have no windows but as they are clean with a great bed, I had everything I needed. Would recommend.
