Text size:
Hotel Bora Bora is currently closed for a major renovation. The Re-opening is scheduled for 2011.
Hotel Bora Bora’s matter-of-fact name is likely due to the fact that, upon opening in 1961 as the first overwater bungalow hotel on the lagoon, there was no need to worry about blending in with the competition, as there was none to speak of. Today its name seems impossibly humble, especially in light of the current ownership by the Amanresorts luxury group.
So what could conceivably have been christened something like Amanbora retains its historical name, and adds a subtle Asian-international cast to its traditional Polynesian style. The overwater bungalows are breathtaking, as expected, with the stunning panorama of the lagoon and Mount Otemanu vying for attention with the design-magazine interiors. And divers and snorkelers are in paradise; the bungalows are built over the reef, with a steep drop to the ocean’s floor just beyond.
Back on land, the options include waterfront bungalows as well as a number of thatched-roof farés, private villas set amid lush gardens, offering unparalleled space and privacy—though you’ll have to walk more than two paces from the bed to enter the water. Canopied beds and hardwood floors decorate the slightly minimalist bedrooms, and bathrooms are first-class, with claw-foot tubs and separate showers.
The Matira Terrace Restaurant serves breakfast and dinner with a view of the lagoon, and lunch and afternoon tea are served at the Pofai Beach Bar. Compared to those of some other Aman resorts, spa services are scaled down; in-room massage or body treatments and massage are available in the Fare Tarumi. No matter; the accommodations and the natural surroundings are the attractions here, and all else mere window dressing.
