Being on the main island rather than a separate motu means a shorter transfer from the airport than most of Bora Bora's other resorts require, a real practical advantage for travelers short on time.Snorkeling directly off the bungalows here reveals a reef busy enough with fish that many guests never book an organized excursion at all, and the property's place in Bora Bora's own tourism history, among its very first overwater stays, gives it a character its newer neighbors can't replicate.

Among the very first overwater bungalows ever built in Bora Bora, these units carry a piece of the island's own tourism history along with the glass floor panels that let you watch the lagoon below your feet.
