The St. Regis Bora Bora Resort
Forty-four acres across linked motus, with the largest villas in French Polynesia.
The resort occupies a group of linked motus on the Bora Bora barrier reef, reached by boat from the airport, covering around forty-four acres — the largest resort footprint on the lagoon. The Otemanu view is the same one every property here sells; the difference is the ground, which allows a lagoonarium, gardens and a spa on its own islet.
Around ninety villas make up the property, including some of the largest overwater and beachfront accommodation in French Polynesia. The lagoonarium — an enclosed section of reef stocked and monitored — is used for snorkelling and for a small marine programme.
The most ground on the lagoon. Forty-four acres allows separation between villas that Bora Bora's narrower motus cannot provide.
Villas at a size found nowhere else here. The largest units are closer to houses than to hotel accommodation, and they set the property's price.
Who it is not for
The St. Regis is wrong for guests seeking seclusion, since the lagoon is busy and shared with several resorts. It is wrong for travellers wanting a small property at ninety villas. And it is wrong for those who want a Polynesian-run house rather than an international brand. Those wanting a Polynesian operator should look at Le Bora Bora or Le Taha'a.
