Just saying the name Bora Bora stirs the wanderlust in any traveler. With the debut of St. Regis Resort, Bora Bora in June 2006, this fabled archipelago in the South Pacific assumes a new magical luster, as blissful paradise and world-acclaimed luxury come together.
Edged by powdery sands and a tranquil lagoon, our resort represents the epitome of carefree elegance. 100 exquisitely designed guest rooms are highlighted by over-water and beach villas, many with terrace whirlpools or private swimming pools. The one-, two- and three-bedroom villas range in size from 1,550 square feet to the resort's ultra-luxurious 13,000-square foot Royal Estate.
Three delectable restaurants await you, including an overwater dining room, featuring Mediterranean and Pacific Fusion cuisine. For dreamy relaxation, there's a main pool with swim-up bar and a romantic adult pool with private daybeds. The Spa at St. Regis Resort, Bora Bora -- on its own private lagoon island -- offers a state-of-the-art fitness center and an incomparable array of island-inspired indulgences.
Rising in the distance, the towering majesty of Mount Otemanu is an ever-present symbol of the lofty luxury and impressively personalized service of St. Regis. The celebrated St. Regis Butler ensures that everything is possible -- from arranging an unforgettable day of yachting and diving, to supervising every detail of a lavish "at home" dinner with family and friends.
In every way, St. Regis Resort, Bora Bora is the ultimate resort experience.
