Bora Bora Homestays

I’m a Titanium member and stay in dozens of high-end Marriott properties throughout the year. This was an exceptional experience, exactly what I had expected from a property of this type. The staff truly didn’t disappoint and went above and beyond. The room butler service was a nice touch. There were also a few times when small gifts and souvenirs were delivered to the room, which was an unexpected surprise. The overwater villas were beautiful, with ample amenities and personal bikes assigned to the room. All in all, we will definitely come back here.

This trip has lived in two hotels, St. Regis and Conrad, Conrad's infinity pool has a great view, and the sea view from the hills is also a superior seascape. There is also Conrad's feeder boat available to the airport. The free shuttle boat at a dock can save the cost of direct airport transfers to and from the airport. The downside is that there are no mountains in general rooms, and there is no lagoon for snorkeling in the hotel. However, choosing a hotel is correct. It is too boring to live in the four seasons or the St. Regis. The hotel has a Chinese waiter and Chinese is not a problem.

Borabora must live in the lagoon, otherwise it is difficult to appreciate its beauty. Of course the most important thing is weather, weather, weather! Although there are rainy and dry seasons, it ’s more luck. The last rainy season was a sunny day. The dry season was just a few hours of sunny days. The others were dark clouds, which may be affected by typhoons in Japan. For hotels booked on Ctrip, you need to contact the hotel yourself to tell the flight time to book the ferry boat (13000fpx for one person round trip), all aspects are good, very satisfied.

My husband and I stayed at their sister hotel, La Moana Resort for our honeymoon. We visited the Thalasso Spa while on our honeymoon. We actually had the ”honeymoon” package. When we arrived on the boat from the La Moana Resort, along with another couple who happen to be leaving the La Moana Resort and transferring to the Thalasso Resort, the hotel staff member greeted the other couple and drove them on the gold cart to the reception, but barely greeted us and we had to walk. The Spa in in the SAME direction, so why not offer us a ride as well, especially since there was plenty of room. Then we decided to have lunch at the restaurant there and the service was awful. We had to keep calling for the server, she NEVER came back to check on us to see if we needed anything. When we went into the gift shop, we were not greeted at all, in fact we were pretty much ignored. Then, when we arrived for our spa treatment, we were told to change and that someone would give us a tour of the spa. We waited and waited and waited and finally, I stopped someone and inquired. Of course by that time it was already time for our treatment, so we didn't get to enjoy any amenities at the spa. The staff members were not at all friendly or as pleasant as the staff at the La Moana Resort. I'm so glad we did not stay at that resort.
