Hotel Bora Bora’s
54 Polynesian-style bungalows and farés (the Tahitian
term for home) are linked to the resort’s public areas by
walkways. These individual air-conditioned accommodations enjoy
a variety of settings, from garden view and beachfront to
overwater locations. Whether bungalows or farés, the
rooms at Hotel Bora Bora take on the eclectic taste of an old
trader’s house – rattan and bamboo, Tasmanian oak floors,
red-cedar walls, ceilings of pandanus lashed to beams
of Douglas fir, cast-iron tubs, overhead fans, CD players and
personal safes. Interiors also include a collection of
Polynesian craft, from canoe paddles to fish-hooks.
Bungalows:
These are located on the palm-lined beachfront. Aside from a
spacious bedroom and bathroom, they come with a sitting area
that leads to a small patio facing the lagoon. Some of these
have an elevated sundeck built on columns with steps leading to
the beach.
Overwater Bungalows: Hotel Bora Bora’s 15 overwater
bungalows are just that – thatched-roof, tropical-island
retreats set directly over the blue lagoon. The water
surrounding these bungalows is abundant in coral and marine
life. Each Overwater Bungalow features a bedroom with a
king-size, four-poster bed, a spacious bathroom and a two-tiered
sundeck shaded by a roof of hand-tied pandanus. There
is also a shower at water level alongside steps leading into the
lagoon.
Pool
Farés: The thatched farés are set amidst
tropical gardens, with short pathways leading to the lagoon.
Enclosed by lava stone walls, these farés come with a private
swimming pool and an outdoor sundeck area.
Beach
Farés: These are located in prime beach areas. All come
with a living room, a bedroom with a king-size, four-poster bed,
an en suite sitting room, a bathroom and a large sundeck. Each
Beach Faré covers an area of 117sq m (1,260 sq ft). These are
the most spacious and private accommodations on Bora Bora.
