The five properties sit around the lagoon. The St. Regis Bora Bora Resort occupies Motu Ome'e off Vaitape and remains the island's most classic address, butler service included. The InterContinental Bora Bora Resort & Thalasso Spa on Motu Piti Aau is known for its seawater spa, while the Conrad Bora Bora Nui is, at around EUR 1,852 a night, the most expensive property in our entire portfolio – it reopened in May 2026 after refurbishment.
Rates become more accessible at The Westin Bora Bora on Motu Tape, which at around EUR 1,128 a night is the island's entry point, and at Le Bora Bora on Motu Tevairoa – the only property in our portfolio listing a dedicated End of Pontoon Overwater category, that is, the sought-after last villa at the end of the walkway.
An overwater bungalow in Bora Bora: what actually matters
Hardly anyone searches for a hotel here; people search for the villa over the water. Bora Bora is widely regarded as the place where the concept came of age, and its lagoon offers the calmest conditions in the South Pacific.
The Westin Bora Bora · FaanuiMore important than the brand is the position of the villa. The bungalows sit on walkways running out from the motu into the lagoon – the further out, the more water, quiet and view you get. Le Bora Bora on Motu Tevairoa even makes that position a category of its own: End of Pontoon Overwater, the final villa at the end of the walkway. Orientation matters just as much: villas facing back towards Mount Otemanu give you the view most guests have in mind, while those facing the open sea give you distance and the sunset.Personal luxury travel adviceOur travel advisors personally accompany your booking – 365 days a year, from the first offer to late check-out. Reach the suitespot VIP service via email or WhatsApp.Phone: +49 30 81452346 · hotel@suitespot.comWhich categories are actually available at each property is best settled in conversation – our travel advisors know the walkway layouts and register your preference before arrival. Do ask us about it specifically: on a trip of this scale, the position of the villa shapes the stay more than any list of amenities.
The resorts of Bora Bora, motu by motu
There is no hotel strip in Bora Bora. Every resort occupies its own coral islet in the lagoon, reachable only by boat – and that shapes a stay far more than any room category.
Le Bora Bora · Motu TevairoaThe rule of thumb: if you want to explore the island, look at proximity to Vaitape; if you plan to stay put, choose by spa and villa position.
Motu Ome'e – the classic address
On Motu Ome'e, off Vaitape, stands The St. Regis Bora Bora Resort (from around EUR 1,464), with the butler service typical of the brand. It is the island's best-known address and runs through Marriott Bonvoy.
Motu Piti Aau – the seawater spa
The InterContinental Bora Bora Resort & Thalasso Spa (from around EUR 1,500) sits on Motu Piti Aau in the east of the lagoon. Its seawater spa is the property's signature; bookings run through IHG Rewards.
Motu Tape & Motu Tevairoa – the more accessible entry
The Westin Bora Bora on Motu Tape is, at around EUR 1,128 a night, the island's entry point and also part of Marriott Bonvoy. On Motu Tevairoa, off Vaitape, Le Bora Bora (from around EUR 1,174) belongs to no chain program but carries the coveted End of Pontoon Overwater category.
Conrad Bora Bora Nui – the most expensive address
The Conrad Bora Bora Nui is, at around EUR 1,852 a night, the most expensive property in our entire portfolio – and it reopened in May 2026 after refurbishment. It runs through Hilton Honors, making it the only address on the island where Hilton status applies.
Getting there and how long to stay
Bora Bora is not a long-weekend destination. You travel via Papeete on Tahiti and continue on a domestic flight; because Bora Bora's own airport sits on a motu, a boat transfer always completes the journey.
Conrad Bora Bora Nui · VaiatiAllow roughly two travel days in each direction and plan for at least five to seven nights – which also pays: several properties on the island run discounts that only start from four nights. Many guests combine Bora Bora with a second island in French Polynesia, or add a few nights on Tahiti. Talk to us if you are planning that kind of combination: domestic flights are capacity-controlled and want booking early.
What a luxury hotel in Bora Bora costs – and when to travel
Bora Bora is the most expensive destination in our portfolio, and the range is surprisingly tight: entry rates run from around EUR 1,128 a night at The Westin Bora Bora to around EUR 1,852 a night at the Conrad Bora Bora Nui, with a typical entry rate around EUR 1,464 a night. There is simply no inexpensive property here – the real question is which villa category fits your budget.
The season divides clearly: the dry season from May to October is considered the best time – less rain, more comfortable humidity, and high season rates to match. From November to April it is wetter and more humid, and rates sit lower. Because several properties run discounts from four nights, it is almost always better to extend the stay than to change hotel.
Exclusive experiences & premium services
The island's concierge teams arrange what makes a stay on the lagoon: snorkelling trips to the ray and reef-shark grounds, private boat days around the motus, sunset sailings facing Mount Otemanu and excursions to Vaitape, the main village on the high island.Personal luxury travel adviceOur travel advisors personally accompany your booking – 365 days a year, from the first offer to late check-out. Reach the suitespot VIP service via email or WhatsApp.Phone: +49 30 81452346 · hotel@suitespot.comAs a suitespot guest you travel with VIP status: our travel advisors register your preferences directly with the hotel before arrival – here above all the villa's position on the walkway and its orientation towards the mountain. The boat transfer matters just as much: it is part of the journey, and we align its timing with your domestic flight so that no waiting time arises at the airport motu on arrival day.

| IHG One Rewards | 1 hotel | InterContinental Bora Bora Resort |
Frequently asked questions about luxury hotels in Bora Bora
How much does a luxury hotel in Bora Bora cost?
Entry rates across our 5 properties currently start at around EUR 1,128 a night at The Westin Bora Bora and reach about EUR 1,852 a night at the Conrad Bora Bora Nui. The typical entry rate is around EUR 1,464 a night. Bora Bora is thus the most expensive destination in our portfolio – there is no inexpensive property here. Rates change daily; the current rates including your suitespot benefits are shown in the hotel overview.
Which hotel in Bora Bora has overwater bungalows?
Overwater villas are the defining form of accommodation in Bora Bora, and the island's resorts are known precisely for them. In our data such a category is explicitly recorded for Le Bora Bora on Motu Tevairoa: End of Pontoon Overwater, the final villa at the end of the walkway – by common consent the most sought-after position of all. For the other properties we are happy to confirm the currently available villa categories directly with the hotel; just talk to us before booking.
Do I earn points and keep my status on suitespot bookings?
Yes. suitespot rates are genuine direct rates: you earn regular points and elite nights in the respective hotel program, and your existing status benefits remain intact. In Bora Bora that covers Marriott Bonvoy (The St. Regis and The Westin), Hilton Honors (Conrad Bora Bora Nui) and IHG Rewards (InterContinental). Le Bora Bora is not tied to a chain program – there you receive the suitespot benefits but no program points. Importantly, suitespot benefits come on top of your status benefits – they do not replace them.
How long should you stay in Bora Bora?
We recommend at least five to seven nights. You travel via Papeete on Tahiti and continue on a domestic flight; because the airport itself sits on a motu, a boat transfer follows on arrival. Allow roughly two travel days in each direction. There is a second, commercial reason for the longer stay: several properties on the island run discounts that only start from four nights.
When is the best time to visit Bora Bora?
The dry season from May to October is considered the best time: less rain and more comfortable humidity – and, at the same time, high season with the highest rates. From November to April it is wetter and muggier, but prices are lower. Since every property sits at a high level here, the travel season affects the total less than the villa category you choose.
Which resort is best placed for trips to the main island?
The resorts on the motus off Vaitape – The St. Regis on Motu Ome'e and Le Bora Bora on Motu Tevairoa – are closest to the main village and therefore to the boat landings. The InterContinental on Motu Piti Aau in the east of the lagoon is the better choice if you intend to stay at the resort anyway. All properties are reachable by boat only; transfers are arranged by the resort itself.
