The Bora Bora Nui Resort and Spa is an all suite hotel which offers a standard of accommodation, furnishing and style that is normally associated with the luxury hotels to be found in the Far East and North America. The resort has been designed to appeal very much to the traveller who is looking to visit French Polynesia to experience the culture and the islands natural beauty but require the comfort of a traditional five star hotel, as well as the five star experience. 

 

The resort is built on the ocean side of the Toopua motu, one of Bora Bora's outer islands on a 600 metre long white sand beach. There are five categories of suites to choose from: 84 Overwater Villas, 9 Beach Villas, 16 Lagoon View Suites and 10 Hillside Lagoon View Villas, and 2 brand new Presidential Villas.

 

The Lagoon View Suites are beautifully appointed with exotic Polynesian and Asian mahogany furniture, with light and airy decor, to give a modern Pacific feel. They feature air-conditioning, ceiling fans, separate living area with sofa and dining furniture, CD/DVD players, satelite TV, 2 IDD telephones, coffee/tea making facilities, mini fridge, internet access, and large Italian marble bathrooms with separate toilet, shower and whirlpool jacuzzi bath. They are located in a low 2-storey beachfront building, with private balcony, divided bedroom and living room with sofa bed, and ensuite bathroom.  They are available with a King bed or 2 Twin beds, and can have connecting rooms for families or groups.  .

 

The detached Villas are located around the gardens and overwater into the lagoon. The catagories are Garden Beachside Villa, Hillside Villa, Overwater Villa, Deluxe Overwater and Royal Overwater Villa.  They have all the same facilities as the Suites but also offer separate bedrooms with either 4-poster canopy King bed or 2 Twin beds, and with the  Royal Villas, more luxurious furnishing and large accommodations.  Each overwater bungalow comes equipped with snorkels and masks, and glass floors to view the sealife without getting wet!

 

The Presidential Villas are the ultimate in privacy and luxury.  Located at the end of the overwater walkway, the 2 level Overwater Villas (the only ones in the Society Islands!) offer private check-in, complimentary champagne and fresh fruit on arrival, 2 separate bedroom wings, with 4-poster Canopy King beds, glass floors , their own dressing rooms, ensuite bathrooms with lagoon views from your bath, and your own private sun deck.  There is a spacious living room in the centre section that opens to another 2 level sun deck with your own private plunge pool, a separate 'well-being' room for private massage treatments, (a 40-min massge is complimentary), and a further top floor sun deck, gazebo and jacuzzi.   

 

The resort offers two restaurants and three bars, to cater for all your dining requirements as well as 24 hour room service.  The Iriatai Restaurant is located on the hillside with a diverse Pacific-Rim and Mediteranean menu and amazing views over the lagoon.  The beachside Tamure Beach Fare Grill offers fresh local favourites and lighter meals with sand between your toes and Polynesian live entertainment twice a week.

 

For the active there is a fitness centre, a large infinity swimming pool, and all the normal watersport activities (powered activities with local charge).

 

If you really want to pamper yourself then you have come to the right resort, as the hotel's Spa is the best to be found on Bora Bora. From the position of its three individual treatment bungalows which are located on top of the central ridge of the island, the Spa provides stunning views over the resort and the ocean, to enjoy whilst you take advantage of the full range of therapies that are available.

 

So if you want to stay in Paradise and live like being in the Ritz, then Bora Bora Nui is the place for you.

 

At some time during 2011, the resort is planning to undergo a $5m renovation.  There is no major construction work being carried out, except the building of a new Kids Club House.  All of the main work is in existing buildings, and will be a complete redecoration and re-furnishing of all bungalows, public areas, restaurants & bars, and the fitness and Spa areas, in phased stages.  Although the Resort will limit the impact of these works on their guests, we will contact the Resort before booking any client here for this time, to check on what work, if any, will be being carried out for dates you may wish to book.
