Gastronomy

The heartbeat of our culture

Polynesian gastronomy is inseparable from our tropical climate, yet fine dining here also owes much to our French heritage. These two contrasting influences produce a unique fusion of flavour that celebrates the natural abundance of the landscape and our proximity to the ocean: inspired by our island surroundings, with a touch of classic culinary finesse.

Our chefs nurture longstanding relationships with local fishers, farmers and other artisanal producers. By insisting on locally sourced, sustainably cultivated and seasonal produce, we’re helping protect French Polynesia’s precious biodiversity and consciously limiting how much food we import.

Poerava

For more intimate dining occasions, you’ll find Poerava Restaurant in a secret garden location. This contemporary, glass-walled structure is home to our most accomplished gastronomy – its name means ‘black pearl’ in Tahitian, a reference to quality and finesse.

Chef Guillaume Hel Guillou reimagines classic French dishes with highly creative, sensorial embellishments, using seasonal, local produce and composed over three or five courses.

Alternatively, stop by before dinner for aperitifs and light bites, or afterwards for a digestif accompanied by cigars or flavoured shisha.
