Four Seasons Resort Bora Bora

The hotel property was beautiful with a private lagoon for snorkeling and paved paths throughout the lush foliage. The over-the-water bungalow was fantastic with a view that can't be beat. Everything, and I mean everything, was top-notch - the crystal clear turquoise water is stunning, the sunsets were so colorful, the food was delicious and beautiful and the staff was very friendly, accommodating, and professional. Booking excursions was easy and we thoroughly enjoyed snorkeling with sting rays, manta rays and viewing sea life in the coral reefs. The beach and pool areas were large enough that we never felt crowded. The Four Seasons exceeded our expectations and we hope to return in the future.

We visited this hotel for our honeymoon with high expectations and every single one of them was exceeded. From the moment we arrived the staff were overwhelmingly welcoming and gracious, the setting was ideal and gorgeous, the food delicious, and the rooms and views stunning. We left wanting to immediately return and can’t wait to be back in heaven, the Four Seasons Bora Bora!

My husband and I celebrated our 30th anniversary from April 16–22, 2025, and it was absolutely magical! We stayed on the West pontoon (lagoon side) for the best beach views and close access to the beach and restaurants. Jumping off our bungalow deck was a highlight! Although the current was too strong to float every day as planned, evenings soaking in the view were perfect. If you're looking for nightlife or constant activity, this remote, peaceful resort may not be for you—but it was exactly what we wanted. From start to finish, the experience was 5-star. The staff truly love what they do and went above and beyond to make our stay special. The weather wasn't ideal (it rained every day), but we made the most of it—walking in the rain with umbrellas (provided), dancing in downpours, and enjoying games and movies from the concierge. We soaked up every bit of sunshine we could! Tips: Bring a raft—staff will inflate it, and you can leave it for others. Water shoes (or flip flops ) are a must; the lagoon floor has sharp shells. Kayak around the resort for stunning views. Drinks are pricey ($30 each), so if you want to sip in the bungalow before beach time, bring your favorites in checked luggage. There’s nowhere to buy alcohol on-site unless you take an $80 water taxi to Viatape, which takes up half a day. Walk the beautiful gardens, visit the spa for mountain views from the hot tubs, and stop by the chapel—both are serene and picturesque. We love scuba diving and booked a 2-tank dive with Eleuthera Bora Diving Center—they picked us up right at the resort, and the fun started immediately! The divemasters were hilarious and took care of everything, making the day easy and enjoyable. Our first dive was in the lagoon to look for manta rays. Visibility was poor due to the plankton (their food source), but it was worth it—we saw massive manta rays up close! The second dive was in the open ocean with much better visibility. We spotted blacktip sharks and a variety of colorful fish. While this isn’t the top destination for diving in terms of visibility or variety, we’re glad we did it—it was a memorable experience. The breakfast buffet was excellent and usually held us over for the day. The staff made us feel so special. They greeted us with leis and floral crowns and surprised us on our last night with a flower-filled bath. I felt like a queen! I also loved the beach bag and water bottle gifts—sweet keepsakes. This bucket list trip was everything we dreamed of for our 30th anniversary. Yes, it was expensive, but absolutely worth it!

Beautiful Experience Jimmy at Reception was particularly amazing and he went all out to accommodate requests. Thank you Jimmy !!!! And our mornings were amazingly enhanced with Angie’s wonderful personality and kind service. Than you so much Angie !!!!

I cannot begin to describe the wonderful experience we had at the Four Seasons Bora Bora resort. The accommodations are amazing. We stayed in an over water bungalow with views of the most beautiful water we have ever seen. The food is delicious, we loved all of the restaurants on site and the breakfast buffet was phenomenal. The snorkeling in the lagoon was fantastic, the marine biologist showed us some amazing sea life and the most beautiful coral. Then there is the unbelievable service. The staff at this resort are the kindest people, ready to help with anything that you need. We can’t wait to go back and highly recommend for the best vacation ever!!
