The most famous of French Polynesia’s Leeward Islands, Bora Bora is the quintessential tropical paradise. Volcanic in origin and with only one navigable pass, the crystal-clear lagoon is calm, warm and shallow. Mount Otemanu towers over the main island.
What better way to experience paradise than at the 5-Star Four Seasons of Bora Bora. This unique and extraordinary experience is one that will be remembered forever. The Four Seasons resort offers over 120 locations around the Bora Bora lagoon and its outer beaches. 100 over-water bungalows are perched on stilts above the spectacular lagoon. On the shore, seven beachfront villas rest on a stretch of private beach. All overlook the pristine waters and views of Mount Otemanu. The rooms reflect the local architecture – traditional teak wood furnishings, high ceilings and thatched roofs. All include modern amenities, such as Internet access and satellite TV. The hotel features a pool, tennis courts, spa and four restaurants and bars.
The Four Seasons offers a Kids Club for younger guests, as well as babysitting services.
Bora Bora will offer some of the most amazing outdoor activities in the world. In addition to swimming and diving, you can cruise the islands on a catamaran, kayak, use the hotel WaveRunners or paddle boats, go hiking, or just relax in a bit of Eden on the beach.
Some of the things to do in Bora Bora include visiting the famous cannons from World War II – massive guns set up to defend the island by the US military. You can visit Mount Otemanu and Mount Pahia, or Point Matira, which many consider to have one of the best beaches in French Polynesia. You can also explore Bora Bora’s archaeological sites, including several ancient Polynesian stone temples, known as marae, which dot Bora Bora’s coastline.
Finally, you’ll get the magnificent service and accommodations you expect from a Four Season Resort.
The Four Seasons Bora Bora is a dream vacation that can’t be missed.
