Over-Water Indulgence
With The Mole off to Tahiti today from Los Angeles with Air Tahiti Nui, on the way back to Sydney, Bora Bora Lagoon Resort & Spa has brought together its spectacular over-water bungalows and sensual tree-top spa to create an indulgent luxury holiday on the South Pacific’s most celebrated tropical isle.
Available through Elegant Resorts, the seven-night Bora Bora Indulgence Package includes five nights in a luxurious over-water bungalow and a rejuvenating Tahitian massage at the resort’s magnificent Marù spa.
Arranged around the vivid blue waters of Bora Bora’s legendary lagoon, the resort’s thatched over-water bungalows provide the quintessential south-sea experience. Magnificently designed in contemporary Polynesian style, they offer panoramic views across azure waters teaming with tropical fish.
The Marù spa is the only tree-top spa in French Polynesia, hidden among the branches of ancient banyan trees and beautifully constructed in hardwood, stone and bamboo. Its menu of treatments and therapies includes oils and fragrances drawn from Tahitian recipes, like the soothing Monoï oil, as well as sensual massage techniques taken from Polynesian tradition.
Bora Bora Lagoon Resort and Spa is among the most luxurious retreats in the South Pacific, perched spectacularly around the edge of Motu Toopua, a green islet in the middle of the Bora Bora lagoon.
Owned and operated by Orient-Express Hotels, it offers a mix of over-water bungalows and garden villas with panoramic views across the lagoon to Bora Bora’s dramatic mountain peaks.
The lagoon is a marine playground rich in sea life, perfect for watersports including scuba diving, snorkeling, swimming and kayaking. The resort offers day cruises and picnic excursions on remote islets, or guests can choose from land excursions, cultural events, adventure activities and romantic private dinners.
The Bora Bora Indulgence Package includes return flights to Tahiti, two nights at the Radisson Plaza Resort Tahiti, return flights to Bora Bora, five nights in an over-water bungalow at Bora Bora Lagoon Resort & Spa including breakfasts and dinners daily, a 25-minute massage at the Marù Spa, a bottle of wine on arrival and all transfers.
The package is priced from $4765* per person twin share from Sydney, $4945 from Melbourne, $4940 from Brisbane, $6025 from Perth and is valid for travel until 21 December, 2007. *Conditions apply.
