Conrad Bora Bora Nui
I had a wonderful time at Conrad. I was a bit skeptical when I read reviews saying the service wasn't that great. Personally, the service was exceptional! I often stay at Four Seasons properties and from what I've experienced, Conrad was on par. The structure is absolutely beautiful and up-to-date. The staff are polite and friendly. Every time I walked by or passed a golf cart, they offered to give me a ride. Because the property is large, there are bicycles everywhere. I had no problem getting a bike whenever I needed one. There are kayaks, snorkeling gear, SUPs, and electric SUPs available. The pool is gorgeous and there is plenty of space on the beach with chairs. The views are breathtaking, so make sure to visit the spa. I highly recommend this hotel.

Heaven On Earth !!
Super clean, friendly, great food, great diving, great tourist outings. OK, over the water bungalows are fun & special experience but we spent a few days in one of the beach houses too. Both choices are A++. The SCUBA crew was very relaxed about rules etc. Didn't even ask of we were certified. Don't do your first dive here. Get your certification before you go! You will scuba with many sharks but it felt very safe. Mostly smaller reef sharks or bigger { not aggressive ) lemon sharks. Resort so magical. Hardly anyone on beaches or at resort in March. We loved that. Not a place if you want a night life feeling. This is a very quiet & romantic place. Go to Morea Sheraton Resort if you want people & nightlife. #boraborabeach #tahiti #heaven #frenchpolynesia

Undoubtedly the most celebrated island in the South Pacific, Bora Bora is French Polynesia's leading lady. Her beauty is unrivaled and her fame, unwavering. Bora Bora is one of the few places on earth that everyone hopes to witness in their lifetime—and once you see it, you are forever enamored. More than just a romantic ideal, Bora Bora is a romantic reality. It comes as no surprise that the island is an internationally acclaimed honeymoon destination. Our newlyweds who decide on a Bora Bora honeymoon often feel as though they have escaped to a private oasis tailored entirely to their special moment of marital bliss—and anyone in the midst of planning a wedding can relate to just how enticing that sounds.

The Presidential Suite at the Conrad Bora Bora Hotel is the most luxurious room in Bora Bora, with the only double-deck water house on Bora Bora, about 100,000 RMB a night!
Have a sunset here, and the party is a very wonderful time!

InterContinental Bora Bora Resort is perhaps the most beautiful store in the Intercontinental Group. Located on an independent island on the outer atoll on the eastern side of Bora Bora, the resort has one of the most unique views of the island. The clear blue lagoon is at the foot, the majestic Mount Otmanu is in front of you, the velvety white clouds are surging in the sapphire-like sky, and the whole paradise is in front of the picture. There is also a separate water church that extends into the sea and the sky. The newcomer, in the witness of this world, continues to write about the love of the world and promises the promise of the present.

Probably when I first learned about the existence of Bora Bora, Pearl Beach Resort was considered the best resort of the time. The super-big groups of that era have not yet begun to enter the madness, this time is the best position. It is a little closer to Mont Otemanu, the sunset is smooth, the beach is large, and the light of the setting sun shines the golden glow of the house. And the difference with those luxury resorts is that it is more friendly and has a little bit of a Southeast Asian resort.
Probably because the resort's beaches are large and almost all of the wooden buildings, so the islands of Southeast Asia are very strong. The lobby here is semi-open and very intimate, sitting there just as sitting in the living room of your own home.
Overall, this Pearl Beach resort is not as comprehensive and sophisticated as the four seasons, but the atmosphere is quite good, and there are many projects that can be played on the beach. Little by little. The mountain view here and the water scenery are also excellent. Although I don't think it is as perfect as the four-season mountain view, compared to InterContinental and St Regis, I think the mountain here is quite beautiful. Of course, the most important point is that this is the only resort with a beautiful sunset and a mountain near the mountain!

The hotel has a total of 6 suites and 108 villas. All rooms are suite-style, and some villas have private pools and hammocks. The rooms are decorated in a modern Polynesian style and are built around the main feature of Bora Bora Island—the lagoon. We especially recommend the Horizon Lagoon View Villas built on the hillside. You can overlook the gradient lagoon view of Bora Bora from the private pool.

Tahiti, the island paradise, is as beautiful as its name suggests!! ||.
||.
I used to think Tahiti was far away and expensive, but after going there, I found it wasn't that bad. Although it's not cheap, it's acceptable. And it's not just Bora Bora Island that you can go to, Rangiroa Island is relatively affordable.
.
Air tickets are much cheaper now. If you fly from Auckland, New Zealand to Papeete, Tahiti, and if you have plenty of time, it's not a bad idea to visit New Zealand as well.
I've been to many islands, each with its own charm. If you're torn between the Maldives and Tahiti for your honeymoon, choose Tahiti if you have a long vacation. After all, the Maldives is close and visa-free, and you can go there even if you only have a 5-day vacation. Tahiti is a bit far away, so it's more suitable for a longer honeymoon. If you like Gauguin or have read "The Moon and Sixpence", Tahiti is definitely worth a visit!
.
I went to Tahiti for a 10-day trip
😜On the first day, I set off from Chengdu to Auckland, New Zealand, stayed in Auckland for one night, and played for most of the day. Why? Because there are flights from Auckland to Tahiti the next day, and I was afraid I wouldn't make it if I transferred on the same day.
On the second day, I went from Auckland to Papeete and stayed at the Hilton Papeete. I don't recommend it. The cost performance is not high, and the toothbrush is moldy.
😕On the third day, I went to Rangiroa
On the fourth day, I went on a day trip to the sea in Rangiroa. The blue lagoon is so beautiful!
On the fifth day, it rained, so I just lay in the hotel.
On the sixth day, I went from Rangiroa to Papeete and then to Bora Bora. It took 3 hours to transfer, which was a bit time-consuming.
From the sixth to the eighth day, I was in Bora Bora and stayed at the Conrad, which was not bad.
On the ninth day, I went from Bora Bora to Papeete. There were a lot of people at the Intercontinental on the main island. On the tenth day, I returned to Chengdu from Papeete via Auckland.
.
There are about 6 famous islands in Tahiti. I chose Rangiroa and Bora Bora. Rangiroa is 1 hour flight from the main island. It has the world's second largest atoll. Diving enthusiasts must go there. You can also go to Tikehau Island to see the pink beach, but there is no volcano. Bora Bora is too stunning. The moment the plane landed, Otemanu volcano was shrouded in clouds and mist, and the blue lagoon was as beautiful as a fairyland. 😍
.
For visa, you can apply for a visa or apply for a visa-free certificate with a New Zealand tourist visa. For sun protection, you need to prepare sunscreen, sun-protective clothing, hats, and diving shoes. Other snorkeling equipment is generally available in the hotel. Everyone, hurry up, Tahiti is really worth it! 😎

The view is really great, and I never get tired of it.
The St. Regis Bora Bora Resort - Tahiti. If I had to rank the hotels, I would say Four Seasons > InterContinental > St. Regis. But I think all the hotels in Tahiti are good, even if the St. Regis is not ranked first, it is still a good hotel. Because I stayed in the overwater bungalow twice, I booked a sea view suite at the St. Regis. The room is very large, with a large private pool facing the sea, and a small garden for drying clothes. It feels more comfortable than the overwater bungalow. There is a water dispenser in the room where you can drink hot and cold water at any time, which is a plus. The hotel service is also very good. The hotel also has a lagoon restaurant run by Jean Georges for fine dining. The downside is that the mountain view is average, and its beach is not facing Otemanu Mountain like the other two hotels. Only some overwater bungalows can face the mountain, but the mountain view it faces is not as good as the Four Seasons and InterContinental. The pool is a bit small and ordinary. What I like most is the smell in the room!
