Of the 80 thatched-roof bungalows, 50 are stilted over the lagoon, and the other 30 are set among the gardens or on the beach. The latter include private pools or Jacuzzis, while the over-water suites contain glass furniture with views of the lagoon below.
Travel + Leisure, April 2019"The scenery is the first thing that makes you love this resort." Facing Mount Otemanu, beachfront rooms re-create Polynesian fares with open architecture, local tapa fabrics, and Marquesan carvings. "I loved walking out 400 yards in chest-deep water."

Hotels Own Introduction
a timeless escape in the heart of the lagoon
Set on Motu Tevairoa, just ten minutes by boat from Bora Bora’s airport and fifteen from the village of Vaitape, Le Bora Bora by Pearl Resorts strikes a perfect balance between secluded luxury and easy access. Nestled in an extraordinary setting with sweeping views of Mount Otemanu and the surrounding lagoon, the resort is a gateway to one of the world’s most beautiful islands.
authentic polynesian style, naturally woven in
With 108 rooms and villas designed in traditional Polynesian architecture, the resort stays true to its roots. Whether hidden in lush tropical gardens, set directly on the beach, or floating above the crystal-clear waters, each accommodation captures the essence of the islands with natural materials, open-air spaces, and thoughtful design.
bora bora: always love at first sight
Only a fifty-minute flight from Tahiti, Bora Bora is a vision straight from a dream—its lagoon famously one of the most stunning on Earth, surrounded by pearl-like motus and crowned by the iconic Mount Otemanu. The air is fragrant with tiare tahiti, a flower used to welcome guests in true Polynesian tradition. It’s an island where romance thrives and nature speaks louder than words.
choose stillness or adventure—or both
Whether your ideal day is a gentle float in the lagoon or a high-octane ride across its surface, life on Bora Bora moves at your rhythm. Swim with rays and reef sharks, snorkel in coral gardens, picnic on a motu, paddleboard, or dive into deep-sea adventures. Or simply soak in the peace and let the horizon do the talking.
flavor, freshness, and french flair
Dining in Bora Bora is a sensory celebration. From vibrant tropical fruits and pristine seafood to premium meats sourced from nearby New Zealand, the culinary experience is elevated by the French influence that permeates life in French Polynesia. Whether beachside or fine dining, every meal is a reflection of place—and the passion behind it.
