The crystal clear blue waters, the white sand beaches, palm trees swaying in the wind, and your worries are the farthest thing from your mind. That’s what it’s like to pull up to the Four Seasons Bora Bora. Fun Fact— the view from their property is what most tropical postcards use when looking out over Bora Bora. So why wouldn’t you want to be there and see it all for yourself?
As someone who’s been fortunate enough to visit Bora Bora three times in my life thus far, and getting to experience it from the Four Seasons Bora Bora was one of the very best, and as you might imagine, nicest experiences I’ve had traveling
to-date… and I used to host a show called Private Islands where I visited places like this for a living. Why was it so nice? There is attention to every detail of the property, and to enjoying your day.
Let’s start with the flight over, which I always find exciting. A direct 8-hour flight from Los Angeles on Air Tahiti Nui gets you to Papeete. They start the flight with a monoi flower that really brings the essence of the islands before you even step foot on land. And once you land, you’re greeted with a warm welcome by a ukulele and some friendly faces before making your transfer to Bora Bora on a hopper flight. On that hopper flight, make sure and sit on the left side of the plane so you can see Bora Bora from above as you approach.
The greetings at the Four Seasons leaves you blown away before you even get a chance to explore. The water is that “Gatorade” blue, the staff is also so very friendly, and there’s another round of sweet music playing once you get off the boat. This property is EXACTLY as you imagine. They have overwater bungalows, beach estates, and villas— none of which will make you feel “too shabby”, and all transport you so far away from home, yet into a space that makes you the most comfortable you’ve probably ever felt being so far away from your own everyday. I’m trying to set the scene for you, but also take a look at some of the pictures to give you a feel for the place. There are two lagoons, a pool with cabanas, spa and fitness center, outdoor theater, chef’s garden, a private island you can swim to, and even tennis and volleyball courts, and activities like coral planting, cultural storytelling, kayaking/snorkeling, a separate pool/play area for kids, hammocks around the property, and pretty much anything and everything you can think of when planning your ULTIMATE trip.
