LE MERIDIEN ISLE OF PINES
Baie d’Oro, Isle of Pines, New Caledonia
OUR Thoughts on Le Meridien Isle of Pines
Rated 5 Star, Le Meridien Isle of Pines has a stunning location on the shores of Oro Bay which is located on the eastern side of the Island and flanked by a group of sheltering off-shore islands to provide a perfect holiday spot. There is a pleasant stretch of white-sand beach on the bay outside The Resort. The waters of the bay being some of the clearest you will find anywhere is alive with corals and fish. Kanumera Beach, one of the Isle of Pines finest beaches is not too far away.
Le Meridien Isle of Pines gives one the feeling of being on its own island. The resort is accessed by a bridge across an inlet in the Bay and sits on the corner of the inlet fronting a beach which curves around the inlet. At one end of the beach there is a low rock outcrop on which the 4 Panoramic Bungalow Suites are located with their individual staircase access direct into the Bay. The Resort’s Central facility is set around a beautiful Horizon Pool which appears to merge with the bay. The Resort has a very good Boutique and an excellent Spa.
Le Meridien Isle of Pines is a complete destination in its own right; you will probably want to explore a little of the rest of the Isle of Pines, but you can get everything you could possibly need for a great holiday right here at the resort where they provide a very good restaurant and a wide range of water sports equipment etc with complimentary use of snorkelling equipment, but the most outstanding features, in our opinion, are the wonderful gardens, the beach with its sun-loungers and double day beds in individual beach “rooms” and the many thoughtful touches provided such as umbrellas in the rooms for the occasional rainy day.

Your Accommodation Options
Le Meridien Isle of Pines is a beautiful property with a good range of room types. The Superior Garden View Rooms and the Deluxe Pool View Rooms are “hotel-style” rooms each type in a separate 2 storeyed building (Guestroom Pavilion) containing 10 rooms each. The Garden View Pavilion block is located within the resort gardens but is no great distance from the pool and beach and the Deluxe Pool View Pavilion block flanks the resort swimming pool and is very handy to the hotel central complex. Guests in Deluxe Pool View Rooms enjoy stunning views of the bay from their balconies and patios.
The 25 Bungalow Suites offer deluxe facilities with separated bedroom and large living room which flows through to the covered, furnished terrace through wide opening doors - perfect for private breakfasts or dinners.
The 4 cliff-top Panoramic Bungalow Suites are located on the top of the rocky outcrop which forms part of the waterfront of the bay. Each has private stairs for direct access to the lagoon. Similar in layout and facilities to the Bungalow Suites, each enjoys a very pleasant, private location with spectacular views.
All accommodation types are air-conditioned as well as having a ceiling fan and flow-through ventilation. All beds are partially covered by insect nets and an insect repellant diffuser is provided in every room.
