Honeymoon Destination: Escape to Bora Bora at the Four Seasons Resort

On a private motu, Four Seasons Resort Bora Bora offers a South Seas escape in a lush world of unsurpassed tropical beauty.

The most famous of French Polynesia’s Leeward Islands, Bora Bora is the quintessential tropical paradise. Volcanic in origin, it is surrounded by sand-fringed motus (small islets) on an outer coral reef that encloses a turquoise lagoon. With only one navigable pass, the crystal-clear lagoon is calm, warm and relatively shallow.

Settled by Polynesians around AD 900, French Polynesia was discovered by Europeans in the 16th century. For centuries, the French and English vied for the possession of Tahiti and its archipelago. A French colony since 1884, Bora Bora became an overseas territory in 1946. Its unequalled beauty has drawn artists and writers – perhaps most famously, author James A. Michener declared it the most beautiful island in the world. Today, most of Bora Bora’s 4,650 inhabitants live on a thin, flat coastal strip, many around the small port of Vaitape.

Four Seasons will be glad to arrange memorable experiences for the bridal couple to match your preferences. Examples include:

• Romantic breakfast in the privacy of your bungalow or villa – delivered by canoe
• Romantic couples spa treatment in our private Kahaia spa suite
• Sunset cruises
• Romantic photo services
• Taurua romantic dinners – Enjoy a special evening for two with a romantic Polynesian-style dining experience, surrounded by magnificent scenery. Dine either on the ocean-side terrace of your private bungalow or on our beautiful white sand beach, graced by impeccable Four Seasons service.
