Discover unparalleled luxury in the heart of the South Pacific at The St. Regis Bora Bora Resort, where Polynesian paradise meets timeless sophistication. Set on 44 acres of pristine island beauty, this legendary resort redefines overwater living with the largest villas in the South Pacific, each offering breathtaking views of Mount Otemanu and the crystalline lagoon that has made Bora Bora synonymous with tropical perfection.
An Island of Unrivaled Luxury
Nestled on the private motu of Ome’e, The St. Regis Bora Bora Resort embodies the pinnacle of island luxury. The resort’s design seamlessly blends traditional Polynesian architecture with contemporary elegance, creating spaces that honor local culture while providing every modern comfort. Thatched roofs crown sleek structures that seem to float above the turquoise lagoon, while manicured gardens burst with tropical blooms, creating a paradise that exceeds even the most vivid imagination.
The Largest Overwater Villas in the South Pacific
The resort’s 91 villas redefine spacious luxury, with the overwater villas spanning up to 1,550 square feet – the largest in the region. Each villa features a glass floor panel for observing marine life, a private plunge pool, and an expansive terrace with direct lagoon access. The iconic Overwater Royal Otemanu Villas offer unobstructed views of Mount Otemanu, while the Two-Bedroom Villas provide palatial space for families or groups, complete with private whirlpool spas and outdoor rain showers.
Beach villas nestle among tropical gardens, offering direct access to the powder-soft sand and featuring private pools surrounded by lush vegetation. The crowning jewel is the three-bedroom Royal Estate, spanning 13,000 square feet with its own private beach, swimming pool, spa, and dedicated staff quarters – a private paradise within paradise.
Culinary Excellence by Jean-Georges
Dining at The St. Regis Bora Bora reaches extraordinary heights under the guidance of celebrity chef Jean-Georges Vongerichten. Lagoon Restaurant by Jean-Georges offers refined Asian-influenced cuisine in an overwater setting, where each table enjoys panoramic lagoon views. The menu showcases fresh seafood and locally sourced ingredients prepared with French technique and Asian flavors, creating dishes that are both innovative and deeply satisfying.
Te Pahu presents Mediterranean-inspired cuisine beachside, while Sushi Take offers authentic Japanese cuisine in an intimate overwater setting. The Aparima Bar, named after a traditional Polynesian dance, serves craft cocktails and the resort’s signature Bloody Mary, best enjoyed while watching the sun set behind Mount Otemanu. In-villa dining, orchestrated by St. Regis Butler Service, transforms private terraces into exclusive restaurants.
The Art of St. Regis Butler Service
True to St. Regis tradition, every villa includes the services of a dedicated butler, available 24 hours a day to anticipate and fulfill every desire. From unpacking luggage and preparing baths drawn with tropical flowers to arranging private island picnics and booking exclusive excursions, the butlers ensure a seamless, personalized experience. This signature service, combined with genuine Polynesian hospitality, creates an atmosphere where every guest feels like royalty.
Iridium Spa: A Sanctuary of Serenity
The 13,000-square-foot Iridium Spa occupies its own private island, accessible by a short boat ride that begins the journey to relaxation. Treatment villas perch over the lagoon, where the gentle sound of waves enhances traditional Polynesian healing rituals and modern wellness therapies. The spa features a vitality pool, steam rooms, and a fitness center with lagoon views, creating a comprehensive wellness sanctuary.
Adventures in Paradise
While the resort itself offers endless relaxation, the surrounding lagoon and islands provide extraordinary adventures. The resort’s lagoonarium allows safe interaction with tropical fish and rays, while complimentary water sports include kayaking, paddleboarding, and snorkeling in the pristine house reef. Private boat excursions explore hidden motus, encounter manta rays and sharks, and visit pearl farms where Tahitian black pearls are cultivated.
Cultural experiences include traditional Polynesian dance performances, ukulele lessons, and pareo-tying demonstrations. For the ultimate romantic gesture, the resort arranges private dinners on secluded beaches, proposals atop Mount Otemanu, and intimate wedding ceremonies in the overwater chapel or on pristine sand.
