They say that location is everything and so it is with the Bora Bora Nui Resort & Spa, a 120- villa resort offering a world class combination of Polynesian tradition and sumptuous comfort. Built around a sacred and legendary cove of white sand and majestic lava rock, the resort rises above what James Michener called “the most beautiful lagoon in the world.”

A favorite of experienced world travelers, the Bora Bora Nui has received a number of industry accolades since opening five years ago. Architectural Digest, Conde Nast Traveler, The Robb Report, Elite Traveler and Cigar Aficionado have all raved about the resort. In 2006 Modern Bride Magazine named the resort’s overwater villa bungalows the“Ultimate Honeymoon Suite in the World” and the 2007 World Travel Awards named The Nui “The Best Resort in French Polynesia.”

The Luxury Collection resort opened with a litany of firsts for Bora Bora: the first overwater check-in, the first airport transfer via private yacht, the largest infinity pool, the first full treatment spa, the first 1,000 square foot bungalow villas, and the only resort built along a hillside, offering sweeping water views from all of its hillside, beachfront and overwater villas.
